🛍️ The hotel is conveniently located just behind SAKURA MACHI Kumamoto and is a mere 10-minute walk from the main shopping street. It is also surrounded by tram stations, making travel easy and accessible.
🚙 Although the hotel does not have its own parking lot, it offers discounts at nearby parking facilities. I found it more convenient, however, to park at the lot directly in front of the hotel for 1,400 Yen per night, which is almost the same price as the hotel's discounted options.
🛌 The room size is typical for a Japanese hotel with two twin beds, but the bathroom is slightly larger than average. The only downside is that one of the beds is positioned too close to the window, meaning you'll sleep near the curtain, which is a bit dusty.
We had a great stay at Kamenoi Hotel Aso Park. We booked a room in the South Building, which was spacious,clean, and had a large, comfortable bed. The hotel provides yukata robes in various colors, which was a lovely touch for guests to enjoy the onsen experience.
♨️ The onsen was large and relaxing — perfect after a day of exploring Aso.
🚗 Parking was very convenient, located right next to the hotel. Just across the parking area, there’s a 24-hour convenience store called Obentou Hirai offering ready-made bentos, hot meals, ramen, and udon — extremely convenient for late-night snacks or quick meals.
🍱 We chose a room-only package without meals, and in the morning, we visited the local souvenir and food center at Aso Station. It had a great selection of local foods and breakfast options, plus plenty of gifts and souvenirs to bring home.
Overall, a comfortable stay with everything we needed nearby. Highly recommended if you’re exploring the Aso area!
The room was very clean.
Staff were really helpful - I asked the front desk for food recommendations and they offered some good choices at late night time.
Rooms were clean with toiletries well provided.
Would be even better if some small utensils/plates could be provided in the room for some chill snack time.
But all in all, 10/10!
Location is very convenient, mall, parks, bus interchange just opposite, hot spring also nice, hotel even provide free drink & ice cream outside of the hot spring resting area, also the free ramen during 930pm-11pm.
Solid hotel. Close to the airport, decent facilities, quiet atmosphere and nice service. I recommend trying the hot springs. Bring a towel there with you!
The location is within walking distance to shops/food. The size of our room is the largest among similar hotels we have stayed in Japan and very well laid out. We would've absolutely loved it only if there were different pillows available.
It is a 8-minute walk to Kumamoto Sakuramachi Bus Terminal and Gyomu Supermarket (they are close to each other). Super convenient!!! Also Kumamoto Washington Hotel Plaza has Netflix which is a great way to unwind after a day's travel. However, the housekeeping forgot to clean out the fridge in which the previous traveller had left behind a box of pre-packed cooked veggies and slices of sausages.

Very Good
JJiangchuanmaijiuPros: Great location, super close to Sakuramachi bus terminal, making transfers really convenient. The front desk staff were also excellent. When I asked about sending my luggage to my next hotel, they took my next hotel reservation, handled everything themselves – contacting the next hotel and even filling out the shipping form for me.
Cons: The facilities are quite old. The water boiler is just a small stainless steel cup that you heat up – it's tiny and seems unsafe, I can't understand why they haven't upgraded it. Breakfast was also mediocre; all the fruit was canned.
GGuest UserAs the first stop of my birthday trip, I chose Aso. Having previously worked as a hotel management professional, I had high expectations for the hotel’s facilities and services. My stay at Kakuman Hotel, along with my traveling companions, was thoroughly enjoyable—from check-in to the overall amenities, everything exceeded our satisfaction. The staff we encountered were exceptionally friendly, whether at the front desk or in the restaurant. Additionally, experiencing hot springs for the first time left us feeling deeply relaxed. Thank you to Kakuman Hotel for adding color to my journey.🙏🏼
While every aspect was highly satisfying, there was a minor shortcoming: the majority of diners in the restaurant were Korean tourists. On my second night, a small incident occurred during dinner. The server assigned me a seat where only tableware and a departure-time notice were placed. After I retrieved my food, I found three Korean guests (two elderly individuals and a middle-aged man) preparing to sit there. I was confused whether I had taken the wrong seat or if there was another reason, so I asked the guests. Unexpectedly, the man loudly called over the female server who had arranged the seat and sharply questioned her in Japanese. The server later found me the correct seat, which was at the table adjacent to the three guests. I felt deeply sorry for the female server being unjustly scolded, and I also did not understand why the Korean man needed to accuse her in such a loud tone—I would have been happy to apologize for my misunderstanding.
Regarding the above incident, I would like to offer a suggestion: the tables in the restaurant are each equipped with a bucket of tableware and wet wipes, but there are no numbers or markers to identify the assigned seats. Guests can only rely on placing their own items or memory to remember their seats. I believe I am not the only one who has encountered a similar issue, and the hotel may consider adding markers to each table to make it easier for guests to recognize their assigned seats.
GGuest UserLocation is very good, walking distance to the shopping streets.
We had everything we need from the amenities area.
Breakfast is very good range, and most important YUMMY! The staffs at the breakfast area were very friendly and helpful too, they even helped my son (5yr old) with his drink he wants 🥰
We loved the bath, face and hand towels that are used in the hotel. They feel so soft to the skin!
ぶぶんきっきI arrived a little early, but I was happy to check in. It was a very smiling response from the pick-up to the guide to the room. The meal also used plenty of local ingredients, and it was especially delicious that the vegetables picked at the home farm were impressed.
The staff seemed to be foreign, but I thought Japanese was good and very smiling and wonderful.
LLei,taoOverall, a fantastic stay! I really appreciated the complimentary drinks and the spacious bathtub in the room. The service was excellent, and I'll definitely be returning for another visit. My only minor critique is that the location isn't the most convenient, but despite that, I found the overall experience to be very satisfactory.
Lluv travelingStayed one night at Fairfield by Marriott Kumamoto Aso and it was a peaceful, refreshing stop during my Kyushu trip.
The hotel is set near the beautiful Mount Aso area, surrounded by nature — a perfect contrast to the city. Waking up to the fresh air and quiet atmosphere was honestly one of the highlights.
The room was clean, modern, and minimalist, with everything thoughtfully designed for comfort. While it’s not a luxury resort, it delivers exactly what you need: a relaxing, no-fuss stay with great quality.
The shared lounge space was a nice touch — spacious, cozy, and ideal for unwinding or grabbing a quick bite.
One thing to note: there’s no on-site restaurant, so it’s best to plan meals in advance or explore nearby local spots.
Overall, it’s a great choice if you’re looking for a calm, scenic stay near Aso. Perfect for a short getaway or a stopover while exploring Kumamoto.
Would definitely recommend for nature lovers and road trip travelers.
HhelensilivrenThe tea cup in the room was not clean, i wish the hotel payed more attention to that. The hotel itself is very close to the station and the breakfasts are good, I've been there twice and each time the food was a little different. The staff at reception desk is very helpful
LLumos312The whole house and the owner are like something out of a fairy tale!!
Maximalists would be thrilled to stay here. The owner's guesthouse is truly like a mini-museum; ten photos wouldn't be enough to capture all the surprises and ingenious touches hidden inside. It's a bit of a shame I didn't get to see the night view from the rooftop; it was so cold the day I checked in 😭. I chose a single room, but it was perfectly adequate for solo travel! The blankets were very soft and comfortable, and the room size was just right. It's very close to the Sakuracho shopping district! I haven't stayed in many guesthouses, but this one truly showed genuine care and attention! I would recommend this place to anyone planning a trip to Kumamoto 🥰
GGuest UserI didn't expect such a large room! Had a great stay, very peaceful location with mountain views. I even saw deer from the room. And the bath was very pleasant ☺️
It's better to have a car as it's quite far from all amenities.
