Hotels near Kencho-ji Temple, Kamakura

"The location of the hotel is excellent — just a few minutes’ walk from the train station and bus stops, with plenty of shopping and dining options nearby. The staff were very friendly throughout check-in, our stay, and checkout. One thing that truly made us feel taken care of was the luggage service: we arrived too early to check in and left our bags with the front desk, and when we returned later, our luggage had already been placed in our room. It was such a thoughtful touch, especially after a long day of traveling, and it really made a difference in our experience. We genuinely enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back the next time we visit Kamakura!"

"Fantastic hotel and conveniently located close to the heart of the city and the train station. Would recommend it to anyone looking for a place to stay."

"We had a great stay here and really enjoyed the experience. Check-in was easy and efficient, either via the self check-in machine or with staff assistance. The lobby has a cozy, MUJI-style ambiance and provides all the basic necessities such as toothbrush, toothpaste, tea bags, lotion, and more. You can also borrow a face steamer or hair dryer near the lobby lifts, which is a nice touch. On the second floor, there are drink vending machines, an ice machine, and two washer–dryer machines. One note: I don’t recommend using the dryer—it took us almost 2 hours to dry our clothes. The room itself is standard but comfortable. A big thank you to the staff for reading and preparing for my special request in advance—I truly appreciate the effort and attention to detail. The toilet is clean and spacious, WiFi connection is good, and everything was well maintained. Breakfast is provided, and you’ll need to bring the voucher with QR code to scan before entering. There’s a good variety of Japanese and Western food, so it’s easy to find something you’ll enjoy. Overall, we really loved our stay here and would definitely come back again on our next trip. Highly recommended! 😊"

"There are so many complaints on check-in. But no improvement at all. Spare at least 20 minutes for this poor check-in system."

"My husband and I had a great mini 4 days /3 nights vacation. Nice professional staff, very helpful and courteous. Housekeeping staff is commendable , so polite, quiet and always busy.

"Hostel location is 10 - 15 mins walk with big luggage from JR Kamakura station. Easy to find. Very considerate room layout design to separate shower room, toilet and washing basin which makes easy for 3 - 4 people sharing the quadrate room. Good value for money. I will come again in October."
