Top Higashi Ward Hotel Reviews

SOTETSU GRAND FRESA KUMAMOTO

10/10 Excellent

"Super large rooms! Normally these types of hotels have tiny rooms and you can’t even open a large suitcase on the ground. This room was so spacious you could open up 5 large suitcases and still have space to move around."
