A Hotel in SAKURA MACHI Kumamoto, offering both convenience and comfort with direct access to the bus terminal.

"Cherry trees along the streets, chestnut trees in the gardens." - Kumamoto, a city where the spirit of hospitality thrives. KOKO Brand Premier has opened in Sakuramachi Kumamoto, a new landmark featuring numerous brand shops and restaurants, inspired by the magnificent and beautiful Kumamoto Castle. Just a 5-minute walk from the "Karahashimachi" tram station, embark on a journey to experience 500 years of history in the vibrant and lively Kumamoto Castle town from here.

  • This is my third stay at this accommodation. I stayed here for a conference, and the convenience of being in the same area as the venue was unparalleled. Additionally, Sakuramachi Bus Center and shopping centers are located in the same area, making it extremely convenient. The proximity to both downtown and Kumamoto Castle made it an excellent location for sightseeing and dining. The room was clean with a great view, and the breakfast venue was bright. While the breakfast selection wasn't extensive, each dish was carefully prepared and satisfying. The staff were also very accommodating. I would definitely choose this accommodation again when visiting Kumamoto!

  • Located in the same building as the bus terminal and concert hall, offering unparalleled convenience. The Room also provides a stunning view of Kumamoto Castle. The lobby has a pleasant fragrance. However, the elevator's slight shaking was a bit unsettling.
