Accommodation in Japan: Mitsui Garden Hotel Kumamoto

Our Rating: Medium

Mitsui Garden Hotel Kumamoto

Kumamoto

A pleasant hotel located a 5-minute walk from the nearest tram stop and about 20 minutes by foot from Kumamoto Castle. As with all the Mitsui Garden hotels, the simple Italian-designed decor is elegant and lends the hotel a touch of class.

Rooms here aren't the largest you will find, but are comfortable and excellent value for money.
