    I had already stayed at this hotel in the past and I did not regret coming back there again. The staff is absolutely great and the location perfect. The rooms were also clean and really convenient. I will come back there next time, for sure !

    The location, staff, breakfast and everything was excellent! I stayed on the 7th floor and the view of Kumamoto Castle was unbeatable! The breakfast included a lot of local specialty and all tasted great!

    The bedroom was slightly bigger than the usual (quite small) Japanese bedrooms. The view from the breakfast area is just stunning, you can see the castle.
