Hotels With spa in Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan

I booked this hotel for its onsen (hot spring) with Sakurajima views. The hotel's setting is fantastic, perched halfway up the mountain, right next to Shiroyama Observatory, offering panoramic views of Kagoshima city and Sakurajima. I was satisfied with the hotel's facilities and the onsen service. However, the room we were assigned had its window completely blocked by two high walls, leaving only a tiny sliver of sky visible if you looked up. My daughter jokingly asked, 'Mom, are we staying in a 'prison' view room?' I reported the issue to Trip.com, and the hotel called to offer a room change. Since we were only staying one night and our main goal was the onsen, changing rooms would have meant repacking our luggage, which I decided to avoid. So, I chose to stay in the original room. Upon checkout, the hotel's Chinese staff member specifically explained that Japanese people don't mind corner rooms as they are often larger (which was true). I hope the hotel assigned me this room not out of unfriendliness, but as a normal room allocation, or even out of good intentions.

The hotel was very clean and the hospitality was excellent. It was a shame that it rained heavily on our first day, but perhaps because of that, we were able to check in earlier than expected, which allowed us to relax comfortably. The complimentary ice cream and ramen were a pleasant surprise. The staff were all very attentive and polite, making for a truly enjoyable holiday. I would definitely love to visit again. Thank you!

Sheraton Kagoshima | Perfect Solo Trip Experience, Watching Sakurajima + Onsen Healing 🌋♨️ 【Basic Information】 🏨 Hotel: Sheraton Kagoshima 📅 Check-in Date: June 19th - June 22nd 👤 Travel Type: Solo Traveler 【Overall Rating】⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) I came to Kagoshima for a solo vacation and chose the Sheraton after seeing it recommended by a travel blogger. To my surprise, it exceeded all my expectations! Hygiene, environment, service, and facilities all scored a perfect 5, making it the highlight of my trip. 【About the Room and View】 As described during booking, I stayed in a room with club lounge access. The moment I opened the door, I was truly amazed – a huge floor-to-ceiling window directly overlooked Sakurajima volcano! Whether it was watching the volcano faintly appear through the morning mist or admiring the city lights come alive in the evening, this view was absolutely breathtaking. The room's interior design was modern and simple with excellent natural light. Staying in such a spacious environment by myself instantly lifted my spirits. 【About Facilities and Service】 As someone meticulous about details, the hotel's cleanliness put me completely at ease; every corner was spotless. - Gym: The equipment was new and comprehensive. Running on the treadmill while enjoying the view outside made the workout feel effortless. - Club Lounge: This was a major highlight of my stay! The environment was elegant and quiet, offering not only comfortable sofa areas for relaxing and reading but also dedicated dining areas and a bar. For a solo traveler like me, it provided both a sense of social security and the freedom of personal space. 【Highly Recommended: Natural Onsen and Foot Bath 🛁】 This was definitely the biggest bonus of my stay! The hotel has its own natural onsen, which is a savior for travelers who have been walking all day. The most thoughtful touch was the outdoor foot bath. If you're traveling alone like me or are a bit shy about public large onsens, this foot bath is absolutely perfect! Sitting on the wooden steps, soaking your feet in the warm spring water, and looking up at the indoor garden scenery – the feeling of relaxation is truly indescribable. You get to enjoy the healing benefits of the onsen without any awkwardness, offering maximum privacy! 【In Conclusion】 If you're traveling to Kagoshima alone or looking for a place to relax and enjoy the scenery, the Sheraton Kagoshima is definitely worth a second visit. Here, it's not just about spending a night; it's about indulging in the luxurious time of gazing at the volcano and unwinding in a foot bath. #KagoshimaTravel #JapanHotelRecommendations #Sheraton #SoloTravel #SakurajimaVolcano #NaturalOnsen #FootBath #TripReview #HotelLover

This is a huge hotel, so big that the check-in line stretched outside the door. The mud in the hot springs was a unique highlight. The kids' play area and restaurants cater well to families. However, public transport isn't great; the bus takes a long time, and even the front desk couldn't get us a taxi.

The antique interior and tranquil atmosphere create a comfortable environment. The room is spacious and nice. Since it was winter, it was a bit chilly, so I turned on the heater; it was a little dry, which was a bit of a shame, but other than that, I was satisfied with everything. Dinner was delicious, and I especially loved the breakfast. It had been a while since I had such a hearty breakfast. The pick-up and drop-off service to Ibusuki Station made getting around very convenient. I highly recommend this accommodation if you are visiting Ibusuki.

The furniture is a bit dated and worn out but it has a million dollar view of Sakurajima. I had planned to stay only for one night on my way elsewhere but after seeing the view from my balcony, I immediately booked another night and the next day, the staff were very accommodating to allow me to stay in the same room without checking out and checking back in later. Would totally recommend this hotel to anyone.

Slightly dated hotel but very value for money; Hotel staff were very helpful and professional; Room has proper desk to work with (and LAN port); Room wifi was okay; Has a decent public bath; Location is a 10minute walk down the road from the busy tenmonkan street where all the food and activities happen (or 1 tram stop away); It’s also 3 tram stops away from main train station kagoshimachuo. Located at the intersection of 2 tram lines, which can be convenient when getting back to the hotel (just need to get the tram direction correct)

I stayed at the first night of my Kagoshima trip and used it for day trip hot springs and dinner on the last day. Despite the reasonable price of less than 5,000 yen for a night stay, the hot springs are flowing from the source where you can enjoy looking at the river. The day trip hot spring is available for 300 yen, and shampoo, conditioner, body soap is also complete. In addition, I was unintentionally relaxed in the healing space where dogs and cats welcomed me. You can enjoy the dishes outdoors like a river floor, and of course you can enjoy the river from the room. Arrived by late flight at night and check-in was around 22:00, but the envy of the red lantern that suddenly appeared in the mountains was like a Yuya of ”Spirited Away”, and it was exciting before entering the building. The building has a modern atmosphere, and you can see the river from your room, and you can spend a luxurious time enjoying sake while watching the river flow.
