Hotel Nikko Kumamoto

This hotel is located right in the center of Kumamoto’s downtown area, making it very convenient. Restaurants, shops, and other facilities are all within walking distance, which makes it easy to get around for both sightseeing and business. The hotel and guest rooms are clean and well maintained, and the rooms are comfortable and easy to use. I did not experience any inconvenience during my stay. The staff were also friendly and helpful, providing smooth and pleasant service. Overall, it is a well-balanced hotel with an excellent location, cleanliness, and usability, and a reliable choice when staying in Kumamoto.

This is going to be longer review than I expected.||Was worried that the hotel and rooms were old and dirty from some reviews but surprisingly it was not. Managed to get a room with good pricing. ||I requested high floor, corner, away from lift lobby and castle view which they were able to accommodate except corner room. ||Room was spacious and had everything I need. Downside was that there was no do not disturb sign to hang at door handle. At exactly 5-10 mins after check out time at 11am, the housekeeping starts knocking on the door to ask about housekeeping. It was kind of annoying as I only wanted them to come at 12 noon. ||My guess is you have to call reception to let them know your preferred timing so they will not knock on the door until the time that you have stated. ||Loved the shower as it was strong. Also they provided bath salt which was a nice touch for baths. ||Parking was expensive at 2,000 yen for multiple entries from 130pm to 1130am next day. You need to bring the ticket to get it stamped at reception and pay the fees. ||As it was central location, there were lots of dining, 100 yen shops, pharmacies, convenience stores and Don Donki nearby. ||Will definitely be back to stay at this hotel in Kumamoto again.

All good at the Nikko. Lovely hotel with friendly staff and attentive service. We are cycling around Japan and the manager stored our bicycles inside the hotel in a dedicated area which was great as any kind of parking is different including bicycles. The rooms have really nice decor and super comfy beds. Breakfast was top notch with a Japanese breakfast alternative on a different floor. You can visit both if you like.

Hotel Nikko Kumamoto maintains very high standard of service. Greeters were always smiling at the hotel lobby and lift area. We were lucky to get a Room with Castle view. Location was perfect, right opposite Tsuruya Departmental Store and beside Shimotori shopping srreet. Breakfast spread was excellent. Highly recommended!

I had a wonderful and memorable stay here. My room was large, clean and comfortable with a nice view. The breakfast buffet was good and the restaurant staff were lovely. There are attractions and shopping close by. I did find the dinner options in the hotel a bit limited (it seemed some restaurants were temporarily closed) but it wasn't a problem for me as you can find other restaurants around. A huge thank you to all the staff (including front desk, concierge, housekeeping and restaurant) as this was my first time in Japan and the staff were so welcoming and helpful, I very much appreciated it.

Good place to stay in Kumamoto.|Although the room was a bit small it is convenient. And super clean.|Located in the middle of multiple shopping centers and about 15 minutes walk from the Kumamoto castle.|The breakfast was very good. The stuff is very friendly and efficient.

Old but well kept and clean as much as you can expect from Nikko brand. So far all the Nikko have been great except for the one in Guam 🫠. Great staff, great facial and location. Staffs are super!

A very good hotel, well located with many shops and restaurants nearby. The design is elegant, with a beautiful reception area that creates a welcoming atmosphere. The rooms are very clean, with comfortable beds ensuring a restful stay. I had a quiet room, which was a big plus. The staff are friendly and professional, always ready to assist. While the hotel lacks a gym and a swimming pool, its excellent amenities and overall quality make it the best choice in Kumamoto city. Enjoy 😎
