The best thing about the hotel is the views across the bay and of the Volcano. Who needs a telly if you've got THAT view from the large panorama window and balcony. The room was large for Japanese standards and comfortable, although the furniture a little dated. Breakfast buffet excellent and to be recommended. The small Japanese restaurant in the hotel is exquisite but needs pre-booking, the service unsurpassed. The dinner buffet was a little disappointing at 4.500 Y. When we arrived at 7:30 for a 90 mins session, half of the dishes had gone and were not replenished. The location in terms of access to the city and facilities, ferry terminal and station is not the best, unless you have a car. There are 2 bus routes, but only with 2 buses an hour. However, a s said before, the Volcano view compensates for the few little shortcomings.

We were staying at renewed room high floor with refurbished room facing Sakurajima which was fantastic. The room was extremely spacious and clean. However, do bear in mind this is an old hotel and may not all rooms are refurbished an parking is chargeable of Yen 1000 per night and even though the parking lots are limited but their have an associated parking lot with ample parking space which is located merely cross the road, same parking fee applies. Convenient store is across the road and a hotto motto hopefully I pronounced correctly, sort of fast food chain that is very affordable mins away from the hotel. Going to city centre, driving is more convenient. A

We had a view of the volcano from our room. It was a treat to watch its ever-changing puffing from our balcony! The breakfast was excellent but pricey. There's both a 7-11 and a Family Mart across the street. An added bonus is the free outdoor spa (hot-tub). You book it at the front desk and they provide towels and robes. We went at night and loved it. Note that you go outside and then downstairs to reach it.

Room size, view and service was great. Also bed was firm but not too hard. Appreciated flexibility/ accommodation with room. And yes, the laundry is very convenient and affordable. There is also a large supermarket with a small food court (closes at 6:30) about 5 minute walk from hotel. Thanks for our stay.

I had business at the nearby Kagoshima Prefectural Office just before our wedding anniversary, so my wife and I stayed three nights and celebrated our anniversary. The room was small but cozy. The internet was great. The room was clean. Breakfast was excellent. The bed was just right. Everything was clean. Parking was extra, but reasonable and convenient. I will stay here again if I have more business at the prefectural offices. My wife was happy we stayed here instead of at a cheaper place like I usually stay. The views of the Sakurajima volcano are superb. The Nishimuta supermarket and three convenience stores are close by.

The view of Sakurajima from the lobby and dining hall is positively stunning. The room was comfortable, and even though I wasn't on the bay side, the view of the city was quite nice. Staff were very helpful, and were able to call a taxi for me at checkout. Breakfast was very good, being able to see the volcano as you dine. Additionally, they were able to accommodate me with a re-schedule for my stay after my initial trip was delayed a month due to a medical emergency, which was greatly appreciated.

We didn't try to the breakfast, but we had dinner the first night at ニホンリョウリテッパンヤキミナトrestaurant and enjoyed it very much. Good food, gracious service, comfortable quiet ambience. We also loved the view of Sakurajima from our 10th-floor room. It was very nice to wake up to the sun rising over the volcano, and the changing weather over Kinko Bay.
