"My stay at Kumamoto Nest Hotel was excellent. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed for my stay. I especially appreciated having breakfast available each morning. Fresh towels, a robe, and slippers were provided daily, which was a nice touch. The staff were helpful and friendly throughout my visit. Another big advantage was that everything I needed was within walking distance. This was my first visit to Japan, and the hotel exceeded my expectations. I would definitely stay...

10/10 Excellent

"早餐中上水準，用餐環境明亮舒適。員工禮貌親切。我住的單人房很寬敞，毫無侷促感。唯一小缺點是插座不多且集中一處，在充電或工作上不夠方便。整體來說是會再次住宿的旅館。"

Hotel Kumamoto Terrsa

10/10 Excellent

"Si piensas ir a las estatuas de One Piece este lugar es ideal no solo en ubicación sino que aquí mismo venden la estatua de Luffy! De mis estancias favoritas, para la piscina necesitas gorro y lentes de natación, y tienen un espacio con chorro a agua caliente DELICIOSO de verdad que dejaron la barra muy arriba para el resto de lugares que he visitado "
