This was my first trip to Kagoshima, Kyushu, and your hotel's setting was absolutely stunning, offering distant views of Sakurajima volcano. The hot springs within the hotel also have excellent water quality, especially the open-air bath where you can gaze at Sakurajima. If the weather is good, you can even catch the sunrise around 5:30 AM, truly experiencing the majestic power of nature! The hotel's buffet breakfast lived up to its reputation and was definitely worth the price! Plus, there's a free shuttle bus service daily from Kagoshima-Chuo Station to the hotel. All in all, it's a high-quality hotel well worth staying at for anyone visiting Kagoshima.
Art Hotel Kagoshima offers a very positive stay overall, largely thanks to its outstanding staff, who consistently went out of their way to assist and make guests feel welcome. I strongly recommend requesting a room with a view of Sakurajima—one of Japan’s most active volcanoes—as waking up to this dramatic landscape is truly priceless. The hotel’s location is also very convenient, with easy access to nearby bus routes. While the rooms are comfortable, the building is clearly dated and would benefit from significant renovations to better match the quality of service.
The hotel offers a shuttle service, which makes getting around very convenient. Right outside the hotel, there's a tram stop that takes you to the pier, where you can catch a boat to Sakurajima for sightseeing. The hotel's breakfast is quite substantial, with plenty of fruit, and the golden kiwi was especially sweet. All the staff were attentive and thoughtful. The hotel also has a free gym, and right next door is a hot spring ♨️ where you can enjoy a full soak or a foot bath; the spa services, however, are paid. Overall, everything was excellent. I'll definitely stay here again on my next visit. I hope for friendship between China and Japan and world peace 🤝🏻
This hotel is excellent, offering incredible value for money. It's definitely the top choice on Mount Kirishima. The private hot springs are absolutely amazing!
This time, my friend and I chose this place to unwind and escape our daily stresses. The room was spacious and clean, the food was delicious, and the hot springs were absolutely wonderful. We had a great time and felt completely refreshed! After checking out, we visited Kirishima Shrine since it's nearby, then explored some power spots, fully enjoying everything Kirishima had to offer before heading home. We even said, 'Let's come back again soon!' Thank you very much for a lovely stay.
It is rare that there are fresh flowers in the guest room. It is a large communal bath in the hotel, but the men seem to have been renovated and are very clean. However, it ends at 23 o'clock at night, so I want you to open a little later. I had a sashimi set meal at the restaurant in the building for dinner. The volume and taste were good, but it was a pity that the essential sashimi was small. Breakfast, but fried satsuma and carpaccio are excellent. Carpaccio was a big sashimi than dinner. I think the breakfast here is of high grade.
I was impressed by the friendly staff, all of whom had the biggest smiles. Kagoshima Chuo Station is about a 20-minute walk away, straight along the main street in front of the hotel. The breakfast buffet featured a wide variety of local Kagoshima ingredients and traditional dishes, as well as a wide selection of sweets, making it a delightful experience from the start of the day.
I'm glad there's a hot spring and it's free to use.
There's a coin laundry service.
Everything on the breakfast buffet was delicious.
I was glad they had chicken rice.
I didn't get to try the ice cream or shaved ice, so I'd like to try those next time.
The food at the restaurant was delicious, but
I'm not sure how they serve the entire course meal in afternoon tea format.
It would be nice if they offered more non-alcoholic drinks than just juices.
It would be nice if they had more non-alcoholic cocktails.
There's nothing nearby, but it's convenient because there's a decent selection of souvenirs.

A hot spring hotel near the sea, a ten-story Japanese-style sea view room, with an unobstructed sea view outside the window, the scenery is very good. I gave you a sand bath coupon for the hotel's own sand bath hot spring, so you don't even have to go to the Sand Le Hall.
The specialty of Ibusuki is the sand bath. You can’t take pictures, so just use the pictures on the official website to take a look. You can soak for ten minutes at most, half the amount for children, and a staff member will wake you up when the time is up.
The swimming pool is open during this season.
The hotel has a free shuttle service to Ibusuki Station in the morning, leaving at 9 a.m. and 10 a.m. You need to make a reservation one day in advance. Dinner was Satsuma cuisine, which was exquisite, with fresh ingredients and delicious taste. Breakfast is buffet style.
The Iwasaki Hotel next door actually had small fireworks on 8.12 nights, and I was lucky enough to catch them.
The foreign girl at the front desk speaks very good English. She introduced herself as an expatriate from Dubai who has been working in Japan for 5 years. Now she speaks Japanese better than English 🙂
A hotel with a high cost performance! The city of Chushui is very deserted, but the location of the hotel is very good to see the view of Sakurajima. The rooms are compact but all are sea view rooms. The toiletries are complete. The male and female soups of pure natural hot spring water quality are rotated, one is the soup pool facing Sakurajima, and the other is a few hot spring soup pools. In addition, breakfast and dinner far exceeded expectations! This hotel is very suitable for tourists who come to Kagoshima with ample time. The airport has a bus to the Chushui Port to get off at the Central Hospital and walk for 5 minutes. Then take the ferry to Kagoshima's duck pool port, and then change to see Sakurajima. There are also buses to Sakurajima Port that can take a ferry to Kagoshima.
Very Good

HHan.wThis hotel is excellent, offering incredible value for money. It's definitely the top choice on Mount Kirishima. The private hot springs are absolutely amazing!
GGuest UserDespite the rainy weather everyone seemed really friendly and easy going. The staff took great care of our needs and was really attentive.
Even though we dont speak Japanese, communication was possible. Some people of the staff also spoke English.
The room and amenities were great and clean.

GGuest UserIt took a long time to choose a hotel in Ibusuki, and there were very few pictures and information about Xiu Sui En. However, after seeing netizens commenting that its kaiseki cuisine is its specialty, as foodies, we decided to book this hotel with the mentality of giving it a try, and the result! Really like it!
Service: Regarding the service, it is really a detail that only traditional Japanese hotels have. After we checked in, a pair of waiters came to pick us up and take us to the hot spring (private hot spring only costs about 100 yuan) and take us there. The restaurant (you must try the food, it is exquisite and delicious), the most surprising thing is that my slippers (fur slippers) were scorched and wet by the rain when I entered the door. I even jokingly asked my husband if they would see that my shoes were wet. Then help me dry it, otherwise I will have to wear wet shoes again the next day and end up going out the next morning! It was really dried (because one of them got smaller and shrunk hahaha, so it was definitely dried), and when we asked for any service, they would not ask us which room we were in, their waiters would remember us and serve us directly. We have arranged everything. Having said so much, we still have to experience it ourselves, haha.
