2-Star Hotels in Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan

A very rustic, traditional, homey guest house. No en suite bathroom but shared ones are super clean AND there is an indoor onsen!! The room was very warm and cozy, food ( must be ordered in advance) was amazing. The owners are extremely warm and friendly - gave us great recommendations and made us feel so at home. You are able to rent hiking here for a very low price. Location is very central, close to Miyanoura port, restaurants, and amenities. Overall thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would highly highly recommend :)

Very friendly and kind hosts! They drove us to the bus stop and made vegan cake for us. The onsen is also very beautiful and the rooms were perfect for our stay. If you come to Yakushima, you should definitely stay there! Supermarket is only 5 min away by foot.

Very close to Kagoshima Chuo, cozy, everything is there. A towel costs 100 yen, bunk beds; closed with a curtain, has its own kitchen, dining area. Bath and shower are normal. I really liked the location, the staff. Everything is great for unpretentious tourists. Good luck!

I stayed for 2 nights and 3 days for a trekking trip to Yakushima. Since all the hotels were booked, I had no choice but to stay at a guesthouse. The accommodation was spacious and clean, and located right next to the main road and a bus stop, making it the perfect location for traveling on foot. The owner was kind and even provided fruit and snacks when we met in the morning, giving me the feeling of staying at a guesthouse in Korea. After trekking Jomon Sugi and Shiratani Unsukyo, I rested comfortably and had a wonderful trip.

The hotel is about a 5-minute walk from Tenmonkan. The ground floor features a lobby, and a restaurant further inside, which seemed very popular with locals in the evenings. If I revisit Kagoshima, I'd definitely like to try their food. My room was on the 5th floor and I appreciated how spacious it was. I found the flyers for local events posted in the elevator very useful; thanks to them, I even got to see a signed Shohei Ohtani ball! :)

Easy to check in and nice staff. This place has hostel/airbnb/surf shack vibes. It was not super clean but it was not terrible. I booked for one person but trip.com/booking.com booked me for the maximum occupancy (4), so it was more expensive than it should have been. Also, I selected pay at site and used my credit card as a guarantee. This Hotel is cash only, which I paid; however, I haven’t been reimbursed my guarantee from the website. So, I’ve effectively paid eight times what should have as of now. These bookings sites are always trying to scam customers, so I’m sure I’ll have to submit a claim with my credit card. That’s no fault of the hotel though.

อยู่ใกล้ท่าเรือ ใกล้สถานีรถบัส เดิตเที่ยว นั่งบัสเที่ยวสะดวก ลงจากเรือแล้วเดินข้ามถนนมาโรงแรมได้เลย มานั่งรอเช็คอินนานกว่า 30 นาทีเพราะมีพนักงานผู้ชายอายุมากแล้วคนเดียวคุยกับลูกค้าอีกคน คุยเสร็จแล้วก็ไม่สนใจลูกค้าทึ่นั่งรอเช็คอินต้องเข้าไปทักขอเช็คอิน พอทักก็บอกให้รอพนักงานกะต่อไปเช็คอินให้ คนจีนพักเยอะ คือเหมือนไปง้อพักเหลือเกิน โรงแรมมีให้เลือกเยอะอยู่นะ แต่ห้องพักดีอยู่ กลางคืนก็เงียบ นอนสบาย

Stayed at Inncocosumo during our trip. The hotel is clean, spacious, and easy to check in. Free parking is available which is very convenient. The only downside is the location is a bit far from the station, so having a car is highly recommended. Bathroom and toilet are shared with the common public area. Overall, still a comfortable stay. 9/10 ⭐️

It was a single building. It was good that the whole was clean, the room was large, the heating was effective, and the kitchen equipment was all available. However, tap water cannot be drunk. The bath in the room is prohibited. It was inconvenient that hot water did not come out. Also, one of the window sash in the bedroom tatami room was not well set up and the key was not locked. In addition, I was honestly scared that there was no curtain in the kitchen and I could see it completely from the outside (mountain side) at night. And Wi-Fi was not connected. The hot springs are used by campsites and people who stop by, and are crowded depending on the time of day such as in the evening. The amount of hot water in the shower is small and it takes time to flush the bubbles. The place from the accommodation to the hot spring is far away, and it is a steep slope, and the road is 々 hole, uneven, and bad scaffolding! It was very inconvenient to move to the hot spring because I couldn't walk. ３ I thought that ６ 1000 yen was a good deal for one person staying with a person, but I think it was a price.
