This is probably as good as it gets in Kumamoto, but don't expect a full five star experience. The rooms are pleasant without being particularly large or luxurious. By far the best thing about ours was the great view of Kumamoto Castle. It was particularly disappointing not to have wifi in the rooms. While there was free wifi in the... More

We stayed in Hotel Nikko Kumamoto for 1 night only without breakfast. We didnt have chance to experience the hospitality. It is 10 mins tram ride from Kumamoto JR station. It locates at the heart of the city (like 5th Avenue in NYC, Regent Street in London, Orchard road in Singapore or Nathan Road in Hong kong). Kumamoto is quiet... More

The best hotel in Kumamoto lacks a work out area, but otherwise it's very nice. The rooms are somewhat small by Western standards, but have all the amenities one needs--hair dryer, shampoo, etc... I am a tea drinker but noticed there is no coffee in room, just green tea, so bring your own instant coffee or black tea (which is... More

The hotel room is much smaller than i have expected and charge much higher than the other 5 stars hotel in Osaka. The locate is convenient with different department store near by as well as able to see the Kumamoto Castle from the room would be the value of staying at this hotel.

Very close to tram, Kumamoto castle, art museum, restaurant and shopping area. Therefore, the location is great. The room has good space and very clean. It also has quite spacious bathroom area for Japanese standard. The water pressure also pretty good. The service is friendly, helpful and English spoken. I would recommend this hotel.

Thi is a really lovely hotel in an excellent location. Definitely 5 star luxury. The rooms are extremely well appointed and spotlessly clean and tidy. The staff are courteous and polite. It is only a short walk from Kumamoto castle and very close to a large shopping centre with lots of restaurants.

I stayed at this hotel on business. My colleagues came from outside Japan, I selected this hotel because the location is the best to go sightseeing. It took only few min. Walk to Kumamoto Castle, also about 30 min. Walk to Suizenji Park. Our rooms were on 13th floor and could see Kumamoto Castle from our rooms. In the night,... More

International standard western style hotel right in the centre of Kumamoto - about a 5 minute walk from the castle and a 2-minute walk form all the main shopping/restaurant areas. High standard of rooms; extremely comfortable (apart from hard pillows) and, of course, spotlessly clean.

We had an overnight stay here at Hotel Nikko Kumamoto. It is really a convenient place as it is within short walking distance of the Shimotori Arcade and just opposite Mitsukoshi (三越) and Tsurya Dept Store. Kumamoto castle is also just nearby, 15 mins coach journey. The breakfast spread at SERENA restaurant is a good japanese-western mix and offers a... More
