Great location in the centre of things in Kagoshima city- right at Tenmonkan, the busy shopping and eating area with a tram stop just a step away. Very comfortable bed and wonderful “rain” shower in a booth rather than over a bath. Nice bonus massage chair in the room and lots of very nice tea (bags) to take freely at reception (kettle, mugs and small fridge in room). Best shower gel and shampoo- not the usual hotel stuff.

Not too keen on the dusty blinds for the shower and toilet looking directly across to busy shops/offices/restaurants! An extra curtain or blind to pull across would have felt more comfortable. Coffee machine or drip coffee packs would have been nice. Breakfast not a lot for the price- set Tully’s breakfast plate ( but good coffee!)

In the middle of Tenmonkan, this is an absolute recommendation to stay at! From shopping to dining, there is nothing missing and in abundance! Tram and Bus are also very close by for getting to the port or you just decide to walk like us, about 15 minutes. The staff was very nice and helpful, especially when we decided to store our luggage on checkout and when we needed to get a taxi afterwards to get to the station. Everything went smoothly. The rooms was clean and well equipped, what we liked most about the room was the massage-chair, very cool feature and one we didn’t have before in any of the hotels we booked so far!

The fridge was the smallest we have ever encountered in a hotel in Japan.

Very convenient and comfortable - near the bus and tram stops to go places - near lots of food options, including restaurants and convenience stores - bathroom, especially the toilet, were fantastic - buttons controlling lights are easily accessible from your bed

If I had to nitpick very tiny things: - wall socket near the door makes it difficult to open the door when using an adaptor, since it juts out of the wall more (but minor issue since there are other wall sockets anyway) - guests with very large luggages may find floor space lacking top open your luggage (medium luggages and below are just fine though!)

The rooms offered a cozy atmosphere, with sufficient space for the three of us and our luggage. Considering our main activities were showering and sleeping, the room size was perfectly suitable. The rooms were quiet to the outside bustle. The massage chair was a delightful addition, and I had the pleasure of enjoying it. The added convenience of being in close proximity to local shops and restaurants enhanced our overall stay. Public transport was just a short stroll away, and we enjoyed taking the trams (streetcars). Virtually everything was within walking distance, making our experience even more enjoyable.

While on the cosier side, these rooms were more than adequate for our needs.

The staff was really amazing. Cheers up to the lady from Okinawa at the reception when we arrived. She took the time to explain us the way to sakurajima and the touristic possibilities there as well as dropping her luggage. This is the kind of additional service that makes a great trip. Thank you ?

I enjoy how clean the rooms are, the beds are comfortable, and they provide everything you could need in a very convenient location. I also enjoy the massage chair and tea selections.

I honestly prefer the layout of the single rooms. In those rooms the bathroom is more private, I can enjoy the view out the window from my bed, and the curtains block out all of the light because they run in a slot along the wall. In the double rooms, the windows are in the bathroom and the curtains/blinds are terrible at blocking the light. Since you're located in the middle of the city, it's bright all night long.

(Edited as I accidentally wrote about the wrong hotel!) Hotel is very chic and modern, in a really handy shopping area around 1.5km from the central Kagoshima JR station. Tram stop and airport bus stop are 2min walk. Room is comfortable, with modern shower (no bath). Nice quality toiletries supplied. The massage chair was a nice extra!

The bathroom is a little odd in that it has the windows to for the room for natural light. This means that the shower glass faces the room, so if you're sharing with someone you'll need to close the blinds to the shower to use the bathroom (including the toilet) otherwise it's all on display. This did also mean it was a little hard to get the room dark at night.

Room was compact but perfectly comfortable, with a bright bathroom and refreshingly powerful shower. Staff were cheerful and efficient, and the hotel's location is in the city centre, with its multitude of shops, restaurants and bars. The train station is a short bus, tram or taxi ride away. Though essentially a no-frills place, it nevertheless had a bit of style in terms of decor.

This is a very new, very clean hotel. Rooms have a synthetic flooring with tatami-mat like texture rather than carpet. Smoking is not permitted anywhere in the building. Bed is very comfortable.

As other reviewers mention the room is a bit dark because the windows are in the bathroom. It's a bit of a goofy layout but not a big deal for one person.

The hotel is pretty new. The remarkable layout of the room is unlike other standard hotels. Staffs are friendly. Convenient location: close to shops and restaurant.

If I have to criticize, the hotel doesn't have any washing machine. The staff has prepared a map to show where the closest coin laundry shops are.
