Hotels With Parking in Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan

The hotel is very new with a modern decor. The soundproofing is excellent, and even the drawers, wardrobe doors, and shower door have soft-close mechanisms, making them very quiet. The public bath is a moderate size and has all the necessary facilities. The cleaning staff are diligent, so everything is quite clean. The hotel is located right above Kumamoto Station, making it incredibly convenient for taking the JR. Right outside the hotel are the A and B line tram stops, providing direct access to major tourist attractions and shopping streets. Additionally, floors 1 to 7 of the same building house a large shopping mall, including a Can Do 100-yen store, which is fantastic for inexpensive household goods and simple kitchenware. There's also a Big Camera in the mall. However, it's worth noting that most department stores close at 8 PM, with only some restaurants on the 6th and 7th floors open until 10 PM.

For the amount we paid, it was really a good place to stay and an amazing experience! Top 3 experiences: 1. We stayed in the Kumamon room and it was so adorable! It was Kuamamon themed and had a giant Kuamamon plushie which kept us company during our stay. 2. There was a really nice gentleman working at the car park who went out of his way to help us. For instance, he walked/ ran the few hundred meters to show us the way to the nearest carpark we could park at. I had also left my coffee behind in the lobby after checking in, but he saw it and remembered it was me who was holding onto the coffee, and got the hotel staff to keep it for me. The moment he saw me in the lobby after, he immediately told me my coffee was kept for me. I was very touched because he did not need to do any of that. Sadly, I didn't see him before I left or I would have gotten his name. 3. Free postcards that the hotel staff would mail for you! It was nice receiving it about a few weeks after the trip; brought back some good memories! Absolutely would recommend staying at Mitsui Garden Kumamoto if you have the chance!

The hotel employees all of them were showed a good attitude and communication was no problem for foreigners. The location is great — it’s close to Kumamoto Castle, and there’s a shopping mall just about a 10-minute walk away. I made a reservation for a triple room for two nights. The sofa bed was uncomfortable, and the air conditioner could not adjust the airflow direction, which caused us to catch a cold. One more thing, the room key had to be returned and kept at the counter whenever we went out for the day.

Booked this hotel last minute and it was surprisingly cheap, definitely worth the price. The only downside is there's no parking. I wasn't feeling well that day and just parked across the street, which ended up costing me 1300 JPY for 12 hours. Turns out, if I had looked around a bit more, there were plenty of spots nearby for 500-600 JPY for the same duration.

The hotel's location is fantastic! There's a bus stop right downstairs. The concierge on the first floor helped us book bus tickets to Aso and Kagoshima, making our travel super smooth. It was much more convenient than going to the bus terminal ourselves. The room was compact but well-arranged, and all the toiletries were provided, even face wash, toner, and lotion from LA MER. You can pretty much just pack your bags and move in. Right across the street are the Tsuruya Department Store and the entrance to Shimotori, so dining and shopping were incredibly convenient.

Hotel is in a pretty good location. Close to kumamoto JR station by Tram and walkable distance to the sakuramachi bus terminal/mall (5min). Serviable by both red and blue tram lines as well. Room is slightly bigger than the usual japanese business hotel. Pricewise was really affordable as well ($40+ sgd/night 1 pax). The hotel provides room cleaning for concurrent 3 days stay I believe (no daily cleaning, only change of towels), but you will need to pass the keycard/key tothe front desk on the day of the cleaning. And then retrieve the key back when come back to the hotel after the cleaning. No microwave in room, you need to go down to the lobby to use the only microwave in the hotel. Otherwise the hotel is a cheap and good stay.

Just a three-minute walk from Kumamoto Station, the location is excellent. The hotel seems to be an older one that's been renovated. It's been a long time since I've stayed in a room that uses a physical key! The room size isn't small for Japan, and the bed is huge. Overall, the facilities are very new. I'll definitely choose to stay here again next time I'm in Kumamoto.

The hotel is new, and the rooms are quite spacious for Japan. Everything about it is great, and the high floors offer a decent view. Most importantly, the location is extremely convenient, making it excellent value for money. If you're planning to explore the surrounding areas by bus instead of Shinkansen, I highly recommend staying here as the bus terminal is right downstairs. There's also a mall and a shopping street downstairs, featuring brands like Montbell.

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.

Parking was quite a hassle, not enough spots. However, it's super close to all the attractions, within walking distance. I needed an extra blanket at night, but guests have to go to the front desk to get one themselves. No room service.
