Offering a terrace and a shared lounge, Minshuku Hiroshimaya in Kumamoto is close to Hosokawa Residence Gyobutei and Shimada Museum of Art.

The location and owners make this homestay special. The latter is at the foot of a historic and important Buddhist shrine and resting place of Kato Kiyomasa, builder of the Kumamoto Castle, while the former are generations-old family of soba makers. While breakfast didn't come with soba, it was one of the best I've eaten in Japan. The space is comfortable, traditional and has everything you may need, including excellent views of the city.

1.5 miles from Suizenji Park in Kumamoto, 民泊カフェ Gootarian offers accommodations with access to a fitness room. This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking.

I liked how there was open spaces and cafe at the bottom of the room. I got to enjoy meaningful conversation with the owners and they were very nice. They are also very excited and proud of their property which is noticeable by the way they renovate and decorate the area.

Beautiful house and very comfortable. The host was very responsive and kind. The garden also had really nice light features! We found good local recommendations for restaurants in the brochures available in the kitchen.

Kasumi-an offers air-conditioned accommodations in Kumamoto. This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking.

We had a car so had no trouble getting to this place but it was in a neighborhood with small winding streets going around so I can imagine public transportation would be difficult to use. But the house was beautiful and serene. We were looking at buying a house in Japan so staying at all these old houses converted into guest houses was a great experience for us.

This was a very charming guesthouse and the hosts were just delightful. We were very impressed with the size of the room (enormous, by Japanese standards). Everything was impeccable.

    Great hostel in a central location. I stayed in the dorm and in a private room. I loved it, it is very clean and the tenant is super nice. Very cosy and beautifully decorated. Would definitely recommend to stay here.

    Very spacious house with well equipped kitchen in a quiet setting. Perfect place to stay for a couple of nights if you want to explore the Aso region. The host was very welcoming, friendly, and helpful.

    Great location; quiet environment, close by to the city center and a big supermarket right around the corner. The apartment has all the facilities you need for a longer stay. Host is a great communicator and even offers intermediate cleaning during long stays.

    Lovely stay in Kumamoto! Near a tram stop, easily walkable into the city center and to the train station. Room was small but fit all my luggage without issue. Hostel generally was clean and quiet, and the common room was great to sit in for a while in the evenings. The wifi connection was strong throughout the building.

    The hosts were exceptionally kind. I mentioned I planned on hiking near Mt Aso and they prepared a lunch for me two days in a row. They upgraded my room as I was the only person staying there, drove me to the store and the station when I didn't have a car, and did everything to make me feel welcome. The location was incredible and quiet, with stunning views of Kumamoto and a beautiful guesthouse. I can't thank them enough for their kindness!
