This is the Sotetsu Inn you should choose when visiting Kumamoto. Note that it is bigger than the typical Sotetsu inns in the Tokyo area so you get a more spacious quiet and comfortable room. Location is perfect as you are right next to the shopping arcade.
It’s a one minute walk round the corner from a huge covered shopping arcade. Lots of food options. The whole check in and check out process was easy. The staff helpfully kept our luggage when we arrived in the morning. The room was very well designed with everything we needed. The breakfast buffet was nice, a mix of Japanese and western breakfast. They included some local dishes which was a nice touch.

This place is located at somewhat the end of a shopping street so its quieter yet convenient. The hotel provides the most extensive range of toiletries in the hotel lobby. Breakfast is very good!
It was great friendly staff with a breakfast buffet in the mornings. It is 1500 yen for the breakfast buffet which has local cuisine. The only downside i would say is if you need to do laundry it can get really expensive
