Hotels near Kagoshima Arena, 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!

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

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!

Wonderful stay. Super delicious and wide spread of food for breakfast. The hotel has several restaurants and cafes that you do not need to venture out to eat. The souvenir shop is located beside Osen, do not miss it. Do step out of the area outside breakfast restaurant to see the full view of sakurajima, with sunrise view, though you may want to walk to the nearby lookout at the park. But I think the view from hotel is good. The bakery sells delicious bread, soft and fresh. Shuttle bus is available at both lobby, one near main entrance and one near the Italian restaurant at level one. There is a post box at the level one entrance too, you can send postcards there!

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.

The hotel is conveniently located at the west exit of Kagoshima Central Exit. While not as bustling as the east exit, it's very quiet. Some amenities are available for self-service at the entrance, and coffee is unlimited during peak hours. It's a hotel that offers excellent value for money.

I often travel to Japan, and Dormy Inn rooms always seem to be in high demand. The 20+ sqm twin rooms, perfect for two adults and one child, are usually impossible to book. So, when I saw this room type available in Kagoshima, I decided to book it for one night. Overall, my experience fell short of expectations. Unfortunately, neither adult could enjoy the onsen (hot springs) for personal reasons, which is arguably the hotel's main highlight – a real shame. The room itself was a bit small, and while cleanliness was decent, the toilet emitted a persistent garlic-like odor. On the positive side, the dining options were excellent. Breakfast featured Kagoshima's special black pork shabu-shabu and a type of sashimi. Complimentary ice cream and Yakult were available all day in the lounge on the hot spring floor, and free soy sauce ramen was served after 9:30 PM. Given these amenities, I'd say it's best suited for adults who plan to fully utilize the onsen facilities. What truly made the stay less than ideal wasn't just my inability to use the onsen. More significantly, during check-in, the front desk informed me that my reservation did not include a 3-year-old child, resulting in an additional charge for the child's accommodation and meals. This wasn't the hotel's fault, and honestly, I'm not sure who to blame. I distinctly remember booking for two adults and one child, so I'm puzzled about what went wrong in the process. Perhaps Dormy Inn and I simply weren't a good match this time. I'm well aware that Japanese hotels charge per person, so I always meticulously enter the correct number of guests and compare prices across different platforms when booking in Japan. Having visited Japan over a dozen times, this was the first instance where I was charged extra at check-in due to a discrepancy in the number of guests. I was quite surprised when informed about the booking error. Checking my Trip.com confirmation on my phone at the front desk, I saw it indeed only listed two adults. I can only fault myself for never reviewing the confirmation after booking; moving forward, I'll be sure to check them carefully to catch and correct any issues promptly. After reporting this to Trip.com customer service, they responded quickly and later reimbursed me half of the additional cost. During this trip, both hotels I booked through Trip.com had unexpected additional charges at check-in. Besides the Dormy Inn incident, another hotel in Fukuoka charged a separate accommodation tax. Interestingly, I booked a different hotel in Fukuoka on another platform, and its price already included this tax, so I didn't pay anything extra upon arrival. Moving forward, when booking hotels in Japan, I'll have to carefully consider if the lowest price offered on certain platforms might be due to hidden fees.

The hotel is located near restaurants and drug stores in Tenmonkan, and there is a convenience store below the hotel, which was great. Breakfast includes toast, coffee, and yogurt, and we were able to get to the Kagoshima Aquarium Io World by car right next to the hotel.

Richmond hotel was located opposite a big department store, with easy access to bus and trams. A combini is just opposite the hotel. They have a wider range of personal amenities to pick at the lobby. They have 3 machines to handle checkout, exchange currency (e.g. 1000¥ to 100¥ coins for laundry machines on 6th floor, or break 10,000¥ to smaller notes). The machines also accept your hotel parking charges. When it was raining, hotel provided full size umbrellas for use, without deposit or giving room numbers, which is very convenient. It has a car park with limited lots, so if you can secure one ,it will be very easy to unload and load your bags. Costs 2400¥ for 2 nights of parking. Main place for food is closer to Tenmonkan area, which is walkable.

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^^;)
