GRIDS Premium Hotel Kumamoto

This hotel have several convenience stores nearby. And a shopping mall near the car park. I rented a three bed room. At first, the humidity of the room is relatively high, and have an air-con water dropping issue. Being told that this issue is normally in Japan since it is a raining season, but the staff assist to offer another room. The second offer room air-con is in trouble, which is not cool even turned to 16 degree. At last, we were upgraded to the slightly larger room with three beds (the third bed is still a sofa bed). The room is so clean, two beds are in double bed, the tv could used for Netflix and YouTube. I would say the organise of the staff is in a satisfy level. The shower supplies are in Kose, the water pressure is relatively good among four hotels I’ve been stayed in Japan for this trip. But there are only 8 car parking in this hotels, with the first in first serve policy. So, we couldn’t managed to have a car parking although I’ve been told in the comment box by trip.com. However, they have some collaborated car parking suppliers nearby with a discount coupons. It’s not really convenient for you if you just stay for one night. But for me, it’s more than acceptable.

Small room with shower (and rain shower) Comfortable bed . Helpful staff, there are some parkings space at the hotel at 2000yen per night( but need ro take the car out at the check out time only (11.00)

A great value stay! The staff were friendly and helpful. The washing machine facilities were easy to use and managed to find an available machine most times. We stayed for 3 nights and each day bins were emptied and fresh towels given. The extra space under the bed for suitcases is a great touch and overall the room design in excellent. There were several tour groups staying during the 3 days which made it a little too busy, especially during breakfast as these guests all went at the same time. Not a great experience for more independent travelers like us, but the staff tried very hard. Overall one of the better stays we had during our Kyushu trip.

This hotel is located at a very good location in Kumamoto, with shopping streets and izakayas nearby.

Hotel is small but well renovated. Washer & dryer available. FYI, :Parking facilities is mechanised and is designed for mid sized sedan only. MPV can only park at public carpark within walking distance.

it was okay for a one night stay. Just that parking was really expensive at 2,000 yen and you’d have to park somewhere else for a cheaper alternative. Walkable distance to the Main Street and near convenience stores as well.
