"Had a fantastic stay! Originally wanted to book for two nights but it was fully booked. It's a great stopover point if you're heading to Kamakura. The breakfast was good, and they provided toiletries, tea bags, and even face masks at the front desk – a really nice touch. The location is excellent too; you can reach a shopping mall in just a few minutes, and the nearby ”Uofuku” restaurant is fantastic, full of locals."
"Overall, it was pretty good.
Pros:
1. Just a 5-minute walk from the station, which is very convenient.
2. The price is quite reasonable for this area.
3. The staff's service attitude was excellent.
Cons:
1. The room was a bit small.
2. Smoking is allowed in the rooms here, so there was a smell of smoke as soon as I entered.
3. Mineral water is not provided in the room.
4. Check-in time is 3:00 PM, which is a bit later compared to other hotels, but you can store your luggage."
"Fantastic location with incredibly high value for money. It's a 5-minute walk from the Ofuna station, and you can even see the Shonan Monorail from the window. There are plenty of dining, entertainment, and shopping options nearby, including an excellent dessert shop right across the street. Plus, there's a large 24-hour supermarket just a 10-minute walk away."
"The hotel locates very close to Fujisawa station (2 minutes on foot; with escalator so no worry if you are carrying heavy bags), next to a Bic Camera (a big Bic Camera), 7-11, Lawson. It also means that you will have easy access to those department stores and shopping mall next to the station.
Single room is super small, but for me it is big enough since I spent most of my time outside. It is kinda cosy actually.
Breakfast was not bad. The restsurant only serves breakfast but they allow guests to use the dining area and the beverage machine outside breakfast time.
I gave a 3 our of 5 for facility because it is a small hotel so there isn't many facilities plus small room. But hear me out it is good enough for the price you pay.
Staffs were very nice and kind.
I will stay in this hotel again if I am going to visit Fujisawa again."
"Appreciated the drinks bar area and the self-service amenities. Room key is heavy and traditional and a bit of a hassle to have to talk to the front desk everytime coming in and out of the hotel but overall everyone was nice."
"There aren't many hotels near Kamakura Station suitable for three people, so after some deliberation, I booked the Metropolitan. The value for money was a bit low, with a very tiny room costing over 1800 yen per night, but I have to say, the location is super convenient. It's just two turns after exiting the JR station. The Muji Diner on the first floor is a huge plus; I ate there twice in two days. Right next to the hotel is a Family Mart convenience store, and across the street, there's a supermarket, a drugstore, and several restaurants – basically everything you could need. The Komachi Street shopping area to the right of the JR station is easily worth three hours of browsing. One place to avoid is a BBQ restaurant on the second floor, to the right across the street; it was the worst meat I've ever had in Japan, so tough it was impossible to chew."
"The hotel's exterior and the breakfast area on the first floor are absolutely stunning. The staff provided excellent service, and the breakfast was incredibly exquisite and delicious. The location is also superb, less than a 5-minute walk from the station. The only minor downside is that the room was a bit dim, but the room design was quite beautiful, with a very artistic aesthetic."
"The room was clean and tidy, with enough space to open two 28-inch suitcases. The staff were incredibly patient and polite, and the breakfast was excellent – great value for money! Toiletries are available at the front desk as needed. Room cleaning is done every four days, but you can place used towels and full trash bins in the black storage box outside your door for replacement by staff. Just remember to put them out before 11 AM. Check-out is at 10 AM!"
"The hotel is within 10 min walk from the station but a bit difficult to find it as this hotel is in a residential area. Welcome drinks are well served and I had it for every night I stayed in the hotel. Room is so clean that you can feel relaxed."
"It was a short stay, 1 night, but it is a great location close to Fujisawa Station which can go to Kamakura or Enoshima easily. The hotel has free welcome drinks."

Amazing
GGuest UserI really like the location that Yuigahama is close. It's just the right size to spend alone, and the amenities are fashionable and substantial. It's nice to be able to drink coffee on the water server. Unfortunately, the bathtub and the washroom are not separate, and when I come to such a place, I still want to relax in the bath, and it is very very disappointing that the bathtub cannot be filled with hot water. I wish I had a public bath nearby. After that, towels and bed sheets were a little damp. As with us, when drying with a drum dryer, it seems to have been dry at that time, but it is not dry enough, and I think it is better to extend the drying time a little more.
GGuest UserThe room was clean. The large TV with YouTube was great for the kids.
The location was convenient, close to Kamakura Station and easy to explore. There were also many good restaurants within walking distance for dinner.
I was a little confused about the check-in process, but I was able to contact them quickly and they explained everything.
I would like to stay here again if I have the opportunity.
GGuest UserThe stay at the hotel was extremely comfortable and convenient. It is located close to the train station, making travel very easy. The room was clean, well-maintained, and fully equipped with all essential amenities. The staff were helpful, attentive, and provided excellent assistance throughout the stay.
There are convenience stores nearby, and the surrounding area is pleasant and easy to explore. From the hotel, it is very convenient to travel to various attractions. You can easily take the train to reach the main landmarks and key sightseeing spots in Kamakura.
Thank you for the wonderful stay.
GGuest UserIt is located in small road and by 4pm you cannot drive on that road so best to check in 3pm. The hotel has parking lots chargeable 1,900 yen per entry till next day 1pm. I didnt use the car once parked and mostly walk around komachi street it is like 8 mins walk. So i am unsure if it allows multiple entries of the car park. Check in smooth, 3pm dropped off bags in room. Went exploring. It has coffee machine to use and public onsen. Similar to onyado but this does not have the ice creams or ramen. But as after heavy walking day, dipping in hot pool and relax is awesome. I stayed in double bunk bed and space was huge. Had a bath tub in shower and separate toilet bowl to allow diff ppl using for diff purpose for getting ready. That day early june typhoon was incoming so it was a rainy day. Was able to borrow an umbrella as car parking lot is about 5 mins walk. Also coffee machine is free to use, grab a coffee before leaving dor the day exploring Kamakura. Overall, really nice place to stay and near the station for those not driving.
AAndy D.WayThe main reason to book this hotel is the magnificent view from the room. It is genuinely breathtaking, and waking up to such a view is an absolute pleasure.
Unfortunately, that is where the positive aspects of my short stay at Kamakura Prince Hotel come to an end.
The problems began the moment we checked in. We arrived a little after 5 p.m., only to discover that the swimming pool—the second reason I had booked this hotel in the first place—would be closing at 6 p.m. Unsurprisingly, we had no chance to use it that day.
The next issue we encountered was the complete lack of even a basic command of English among the front desk staff. And yes, I am perfectly understanding when people do not speak English. However, there is one important exception: hotel employees whose job is to interact directly with international guests.
Once we got to our room, it was clear that it had seen better days. The furnishings are beginning to show their age, although the room itself remains perfectly pleasant. And, of course, it is impossible to overlook the spectacular view of the ocean waves.
The following morning, we decided to make another attempt at using the swimming pool. However, the staff tried to explain that we needed some sort of tickets to enter the pool—even though access was included in the room rate. This was the first time anyone had mentioned these tickets to us. After about five minutes of confusion, we were eventually allowed in, only to discover that the pool was freezing cold. Unsurprisingly, after swimming a couple of laps, we got out.
As a final touch, the hotel also gently reminded guests that slippers were not to be worn around the property and that tattoos should remain covered at all times. While I understand and respect that these are the hotel’s policies, they certainly added to the rather rigid atmosphere of the stay.
During check-out, the front desk staff did not ask how our stay had been. Instead, the entire farewell consisted of the remarkably concise: “No extra pay, goodbye.”
A little on the dry side.
GGuest UserThis was the most pleasant stay in Kamakura we had! Glad to have an opportunity to write a review. I went to Japan in beginning of November with my younger brother, the weather was warm. We were intended to stay in Kamakura for 2 days (1 day in beginning and 1 day in the end of our trip). A hotel near both to Enoshima and Kotoku-in. The service was incredible. The room was neat and tidy with AC, TV, balcony and matcha tea set, also we could see a sea from the balcony. Hotel has spacious bathroom with mini onsen. The hostess of the hotel was very polite to us. One time we were late to check in, so we called from reception, and she began to apologize politely and walked down from the top floor to give us the keys to our room. We felt a bit awkward)
Then she gave us 2 towels for free, when they cost 200 yen, it was nice bonus. Btw every time we checked out, a hostess was giving to us postcards =) We had lots of positive emotions. So, I highly recommend this place to stay in Kamakura.
AAnonymous UserOverall, my stay was fantastic. The location is excellent, making it very convenient for getting around. The room was clean and tidy, with good natural light and ventilation, and the bedding was comfortable, ensuring a sound sleep. The service was warm and attentive, and it offers great value for money. I would definitely choose to stay here again on my next trip.
GGuest UserI stayed at this hotel for 2 nights and 3 days, and I really enjoyed the comfortable and pleasant atmosphere. I was surprised that the owner spoke Korean so well, and it was great to be able to converse with them. They kindly recommended restaurants near the hotel, and you can even drink and hang out with them at night. It seems they really love Korean music! If I ever come to Kamakura again, I'd love to stay here.
GGuest UserI didn't check the reviews when I booked. This hotel operates on a fully automated check-in system. As I hadn't received the check-in number via email, I found myself completely stuck at the check-in kiosk. I had to call the hotline. After a lengthy explanation and a long wait, the system still didn't indicate what information was missing. It kept loading for ages, and I was wary of pressing 'back' in case it reset the whole process. Eventually, after waiting too long, I had no choice but to go back, which meant contacting the hotline again. We ended up communicating via WhatsApp to resolve the issue. If you've never experienced such a check-in and are feeling a bit adventurous, you might find it worth a try. The room itself, though, was quite comfortable and clean. However, it only had a high, narrow window near the ceiling, which isn't a problem if you're out of the room during the day.
GGuest UserIt's really close to the station and there's a convenience store nearby.
But the bathroom space is really a bit too small, and there are no shelves to store things, which is not very convenient.
In addition, the hair dryer is also broken and cannot blow hot air out😥
