Hotels near Ferris Wheel Amuran, Kagoshima City

Extremely satisfied with this hotel! It's super convenient, just a one-minute walk from the Shinkansen station. No need to drag your luggage far! I booked a double room in the North Tower, which was perfect for one person, and the space was decent. They replaced towels, slippers, and coffee daily. My booking included breakfast, and you could choose between Japanese and Western options. The Japanese breakfast even had Kagoshima Kurobuta pork hotpot, which was so filling I didn't need to eat again, allowing me to try more things later! I preferred the Western breakfast; the coffee was good, and the toast was delicious. I ended up having Western breakfast two days in a row, and they also offered takeaway coffee packets and waffles, which was a nice touch! I'll definitely stay here again when I go to Kagoshima and will recommend it to my friends!

Good location, Just a 1-minute walk from the JR station. Many shops around. Easy to find food. Sound proof was quite ok although I could still hear some noise from the train sometimes. Since the air-conditioner could generate only the hot air, I had to open the window but it was not noisy. Toilet was comparatively bigger than other hotels at the same level. Price was good Could communicate in English

Overall of staying is over my expectation. Excellent location, guests can access to the hotel by underground walkway from Kagoshima-Chuo Station (AMU mall B1). Friendly staffs. Room is very clean plus big bath room. Double bed 150 cm. size is OK for 2 people. Large window offering a nice view. Comment : The hotel should provide more amenities for women guests such as cleaning oil, body lotion etc.

5mins' walk to Kagoshimachuo Station. Could hear trains passing by now and then but it doesn't really affect sleep. Polite staff. We stayed for two nights and got slightly different breakfast options each morning which is a plus!

I didn't get to fully explore Kagoshima this time, but I'll definitely go back and do it properly. This hotel was just a stopover for me to catch a baseball game, so I picked one near the station that offered good value for money. It was quite comfortable with a stylish vibe, right in the middle of the shopping area, and only about a 3-5 minute walk to the station. There are plenty of great places to explore around the station, and you can also take the city loop bus to nearby attractions.

The hotel's location is excellent, right next to the planetarium. The airport shuttle stop is just a minute's walk to the left when you exit. The hotel is quiet, clean, and has a great design. The room size isn't huge, but it's perfectly sufficient for a solo traveler. The only downside is that breakfast is a set menu with no drinks, and it got a bit repetitive after four days. Overall, it's great value for money, and I recommend it!

This was my first time staying at this hotel, visiting my aunt. It's been years since I've stayed in Kagoshima (everything about the scenery has changed so much since I was a child...)←It's changed so much in just a few years... I remember this hotel used to be Tokyu Inn... (this was decades ago though...) So...it's a long-established hotel, so some people might be concerned about the small details??? (soundproofing←you can hear people's voices in the hallway a lot, and the usual door opening and closing sounds with the neighbors, and vibrations from above...)←I was alone, so I understand that it was easier to hear sounds... It seems to be well-cleaned, but...the only thing that bothers me is...the black dots in the joints around the bathtub are a bit bothersome ^^; The scenery can be said for Kagoshima city in general, but... It has become so modernized that you can no longer see Sakurajima in its entirety from anywhere like before...it's a little sad...I feel nostalgic thinking that Sakurajima must have been visible diagonally from the window of my room in the past... Unfortunately, the view from the window is similar to that of a business hotel in the city, so I gave it a bad review (-_-;) The staff at the front desk were very friendly and answered my questions kindly, and I felt a warmth from them that is a little different from the business-like attitude of city hotels (^o^) ← Most people in Kagoshima are kind, so if you get lost when sightseeing or where to find a bus stop, please ask the locals around you (not 100% guaranteed though ^^;) I think you'll be happy with the kindness of others (^o^) ※ The photo I posted (a photo of Aeon, almost directly in front of Kagoshima Chuo Station) Do not cross over to the Aeon side, turn your back to Kagoshima Chuo Station and walk along the road on your left for less than 5 minutes ~ There is a tram stop right in front of the hotel (^o^) ※ Within Kagoshima city, you can take a tram or a bus (there are two other bus companies operating buses in addition to the city bus, so even if you are going to the same place, the stop may be the same depending on the bus company. (←We recommend that you check the number before boarding) ※If you are staying for a few days, we recommend purchasing an IC card (regular IC cards cannot be used) Their own IC cards are sold at the bus terminals in Tenmonkan and Kagoshima Chuo Station, so I think it will be easier to get on and off if you charge it and use it~^^; Anyway, Kagoshima city used to be centered on trams... but now it's almost only the line that runs right next to it... buses are the main means of transportation (it's like Kyoto ←Kagoshima doesn't have a subway...JR is the only train other than the tram^^;)

I stayed 5 nights in Kagoshima for a leisurely trip. The hotel has 12 floors with 4 rooms per floor and 2 elevators. There was only one staff member at the front desk, but they were very friendly. Check-in and check-out were done via a self-service machine. Rooms don't have keys; instead, you get a 4-digit passcode. **Pros:** The rooms are spacious, perfect for families, and some even have bunk beds. Each room comes with a kitchen and a washer-dryer combo, which was super convenient as I cooked dinner three times. The hotel is located between Kagoshima-Chuo Station and the Tenmonkan shopping district. Both are about 900 meters away, and since Kagoshima city center isn't that big, you can easily walk around the commercial areas. **Cons:** As many have mentioned, the breakfast isn't great. There are only five simple options. In Japan, if you don't eat breakfast at the hotel, it can be quite challenging and time-consuming to find something outside.

There were no non-smoking rooms available that day, so we could only book a smoking room. It smelled absolutely awful! Non-smokers would find the smell unbearable. The staff were very friendly. Breakfast was included in the room rate; the average price for a double bed was about NT$1850 per night. Breakfast was simple but filling. Coffee was available 24 hours a day. Check-in was self-service on the first floor, with lotion and toner provided. There was a bathtub. Highly recommended. If you like inns, consider becoming a member; buy 10 nights and get one free single night.

Value for money. Simple yet sufficient. Clean n with all the necessary amenities. Beautiful view of Sakurajima mountain. Fully recommended if u are looking for a simple n comfortable stay
