Hot Springs Hotels in Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan

The hotel's location is fantastic, situated on the 9th floor of a shopping mall right next to Kumamoto Station, making it incredibly convenient for shopping and getting around. Plus, the rooms are very new, and there's a public hot spring, all at a really great price.

Trip.com wouldn't let me cancel, but I ended up getting the Dormy Inn Hot Springs for its lowest price ever! A double room for just over 300 [currency unit]! Couldn't resist! It's right opposite the Kumamoto Sakuramachi bus terminal, literally a stone's throw away. There's a shopping street, a Gyomu Supermarket, and a tram station nearby. As always, they have 24-hour coffee, tea, and ice cream, along with hot springs, laundry, and late-night ramen... My friends who know Dormy Inn will understand! I wanted to do two consecutive cycles of washing and drying, so I put in 200 yen. The next day, a Japanese guest saw me and told me I had to wait for the first cycle to finish before putting in more coins. I reported this to the front desk, and without a word, they refunded the 200 yen I overpaid. ❤️ Love it! Staying for two nights was an absolute steal.

This Japanese onsen hotel met all my expectations. Every day after coming back, I could enjoy a hot spring bath. Inside, there's one hot and one cold bath, plus a sauna. Outside, there's an open-air hot spring. After bathing, you can choose from four types of ice cream and read Japanese manga for free. You can also pay for a massage. For the late-night snack from 9:30 PM to 11:00 PM, they offer matcha and hot chocolate, along with a vegetarian ramen that comes with a quarter-egg. Overall, I looked forward to returning to the hotel every day after my excursions. I'll definitely stay here again next time.

Overall, a fantastic stay! I really appreciated the complimentary drinks and the spacious bathtub in the room. The service was excellent, and I'll definitely be returning for another visit. My only minor critique is that the location isn't the most convenient, but despite that, I found the overall experience to be very satisfactory.

Wonderful place with great people and great service, breakfast and dinner are just...eye opening and delicious! And, don't forget about the clean and amazing indoor and outdoor onsen in the hotel! I will love to go back and have a longer stay here!

I was very impressed with this place. First off, the location is excellent, very close to Kumamoto Station, making travel incredibly convenient, especially for those planning to continue their journey by Shinkansen or other train lines. The standout highlight is the free natural hot spring (onsen) within the hotel, which is perfect for unwinding after a long day of sightseeing. The hotel's atmosphere is clean and well-organized, as expected from a Super Hotel. Regarding service: The staff at the front desk were very welcoming and cheerful. They even offer a 'Pillow Menu' where you can choose a pillow that suits your preferred height, showing great attention to detail. In summary, it's a hotel with excellent value for money, considering the price, location, and amenities. I highly recommend staying here if you're visiting Kumamoto; it's easy to get around and truly comfortable for resting.

The location itself is practically impossible to get to without a car. Parking is conveniently provided, as it's exclusive to the ryokan. The surrounding atmosphere is very satisfying. However, you'll need to rent everything from towels to yukatas at the ryokan. Breakfast is simple. There's a nearby place offering free sulfur hell steaming, so you can just buy eggs and cook them yourself (50 yen). You can also make other sulfur-based dishes if you'd like! I was disappointed that there was only one hot spring, and the water wasn't particularly special. Overall... Spend more and go somewhere better.

This is a fantastic resort! With the dinner and breakfast package, you practically don't need to leave the hotel for meals. The resort offers a wide range of entertainment facilities, including a swimming pool and a mini lazy river. The onsen (hot springs) are also excellent, with each bath providing a different scenic view. It's conveniently located about 1 km (a 15-minute walk) from Aso Station, making it very easy to get to the volcano crater.

This is a large ryokan located around Kurokawa Onsen, with a main building and an annex. This time, we booked a room in the annex, which was very spacious and even had a loft. There were two private onsen baths right in the room, and another one just outside the room. The experience was absolutely incredible.

The tea cup in the room was not clean, i wish the hotel payed more attention to that. The hotel itself is very close to the station and the breakfasts are good, I've been there twice and each time the food was a little different. The staff at reception desk is very helpful
