The staff is always friendly. Delisious breakfast.
Despite the location of the hotel right next to the metro station, it is very quiet here.

The hotel is 5 min walking distance from the beach and the same distance to subway station, two very popular and decent restaurants (bills & double door). Room is spacious with great view of the island and extremely quiet. I've stayed at the hotel for two nights and everything is just perfect. Hope to return to Kamakura soon.

This is a very special place indeed. The staff are so friendly and helpful with anything you need. The rooms are luxurious and really make you feel like you are staying somewhere special. The food is Michelin quality and I highly recommend you make dinner reservations, it was some of the best food we had in Japan.

3 minutes walk from the Kamakura station. Also a couple of minutes to the Kocho street. Great location to either go to the beach or into the mountains.
The hotel is very nice and clean. All the facilities and supplies are really considerable. I especially like the big bathroom. Used it every day. Excellent experience!

I greatly appreciate the very helpful and friendly staff. The room was spacious with a large bed. There was a selection of Asian and European breakfast. The European breakfast was very well prepared and tasty. The beach is just a few meters from the hotel. Unfortunately, we made a spontaneous decision and stayed only one night, but it is definitely worth staying longer.

Hasadera temple is a must see, especially during spring or autumn. In addition we visited Enoshima at dusk. Per end of november they have the whole garden and tower covered with small lights. When the weather allows you can see Mt Fuji in sunset. A hidden gem is Zeniarai Benten shrine. It is a natural spring tucked away between jagged rocks in a little valley. Legend goes that if you wash your money in the spring, it will multiply.

One should check one's room at check-in. Ours was definitely under-equipped: no chairs, no reading light, no handle in bathtub, very limited storage space for clothes, dangerous change in floor level. Otherwise, a very attractive hotel: nice patio and restaurant, beautiful landscaping, etc.

We loved our day in Kamakura!
We loved our day in Kamakura! Our hotel (Kamakura Prince Hotel) overlooked both the sea and Mt Fuji which was incredible. We used the Enoden to get around but mostly walked. We ate lunch by the beach, visited Kotoku-in and even went inside the Buddha (so interesting to see what it looked like inside!), then took a walking trail to Zeniarai Benten shrine which was beautiful. We didn't get to go to Enoshima unfortunately, but had a lovely time aside from that!

Beautiful shrines that are easy to access either by foot or by train. Such a lovely town with wonderful cafes and shops and restaurants. Beach is awesome too....even just to look at or to watch surfers.

Nice area with some tourist attractions - but most of the touristy parts are around Kamakura station. If you go up to see the Buddha and Hase Temple, there are less tourist-style shops despite being the main attractions of the area. The tourist shops around Kamakura itself are nice but the same fare you get in the rest of Japan - cute textile items made in Japan, yukatas, 'instabae' cafes and matsuri-style food.
I would personally say the Great Buddha is somewhat underwhelming, but Hasedera is one of the loveliest temples I've been to in Japan.
It's easy to get between Kamakura and Hase using the Enoshima electric railway, and there are several beaches in the area. We personally went to Yuigahama which seemed like a nice family beach - drinking alcohol isn't allowed - unlike Enoshima beach, which is often full of drunk young people. I am often a young drunk person too, but the types of people at Enoshima beach are likely to get drunk and try to 'nanpa' (pick up) young women. Instead, Yuigahama had many families and young couples and a good security and lifeguard presence.
Along the whole coast of Kamakura and Enoshima, be careful of the birds (specifically crows and black kites) as they may try to steal food. Many crows were rifling through people's, whereas a kite stole an ice cream right out of my hand.

This very charming and picturesque old Capital of Japan is situated between mountains on one side and the beach with Enoshima island on the other side. The old history and culture is present almost everywhere with lots of beautiful buildings, temples and shrines. Ideal for a couple of days sightseeing close to Tokyo and lovely walks along the beach.
Make sure to visit Hasedera Temple, Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine and Enoshima.
This is a super cute hotel within walking distance of the beach. It would make a sweet romantic place for a younger couple. It is decorated with seashells and beach decor and there is a recording of the birds of Kamakura playing during the daytime. We had breakfast and lunch there. They had several vegan options and all of us enjoyed our meals. It was very close to the Enoden line and saved me hundreds of dollars versus staying downtown. It was easy for English speakers.
I would definitely recommend this hotel, it is perfectly located, two steps from the beach and right next to a tram stop if you want to get to the center of Kamakura and other train stations. The room was very spacious and comfortable, and you had the possibility to privatise their onsen, which was a great way to wind down after walking all around Kamakura visiting all the sights. The complimentary breakfast was delicious and the staff was lovely.
Even if we came early, the owner welcomed us with a large smile, which is quite unusual! (Even when showing up later in small/traditional hotels in Japan, as an expat family we are used to concerned looks...)
They have good pillows (no beads), which we don't see very often!
At the end of our stay, he offered to take a photo of us in a key spot of the little hotel, and it will remain a great souvenir of our stay in this traditional ryokan.
The location is superb. The hotel is a few minutes down a cute road on the quiet side of Kamakura station. There are many independent restaurants and shops down this road and you can avoid the crowds. Breakfast was very nice. The hotel is new and decorated in the contemporary Japanese style and very pretty. Staff were very helpful and located items my daughter forgot with no fuss. I found the staff to be very professional and kind.
Very lovely guesthouse! We really enjoyed our stay here.
We love the Japanese room. (The futons were very comfortable.) The shared dining / living room was also very charming with old Japanese house feel. The shared bathroom and toilets were also very clean. The staffs were very friendly. We love all the little turtle decorations and also the selection of complimentary teas available.
The staff was friendly and helpful, the area was great, right at the beach and close to enoshima .
It's a great choice for one or two nights if you want to travel during the day. It's a normal Japanese house, so no sterile hotel. 1 minute from the station and around 15 min walk to enoshima. The pictures on the page are what you get. No luxury but good, clean basic housing.
The owners were so friendly and helpful and helped us learn to say things in Japanese too! It was so fun talking to them, also about architecture (they are architects). The location was perfect for seeing all of Kamakura especially the giant Buddha and hiking on the trails and seeing the other temples and shrines and the beach and going to fun restaurants!
Great location across from the beach and a reasonable walk to a drugstore with groceries and a convenience store. Room split AC system. Daily included breakfast is above average and sized just right, and other available meals are also very good. Nearby bus stops for transportation to either Kamakura or Zushi train stations.
This is a great place, close to the beach, close to Daibutsu Buddha, I’ll definitely stay again if I’m ever in Kamakura. The bed was big and comfy. The shampoo and body wash was lovely lemongrass. Lots of good places to eat closeby. There are bikes and surfboards if you need to use one. Thank you for everything!
Comfortable modern hotel right in the center of Kamakura. The only hotel during our two week stay in Japan that let us check in before 3pm. I loved the layout of the room with seating area and bathroom/shower room. The hotel was close to the station and the shrine and an easy walk to the beach.
It was a good location and walkable to the train station with luggage. This hotel had the most comfortable bed and pillows that I experienced in our 5 weeks in Japan!! They were softer than the normal hard beds typically found in hotels in Japan. Lots of restaurants near by.
We loved Kimmie the host, she is so kind and welcoming. Our 11 month could play on the floor and had wonderful food prepared for him. The Japanese breakfast was delicious. The bed was comfortable and everything very clean and inviting. Felt like a home away from home!
Hotel is a 2 minute walk to the station. It was so easy to access, Kamakura and all the great places along Sagami Bay area (Shonan). No where near as busy as Tokyo. Staff were great and Cafe downstairs was great for a cheap breakfast before setting off each day.
Kind, chatty, enigmatic owner. The place isn't fancy, it's just an old house really but it has a cosy lived-in feel. Good breakfast. Not many can stay here at a time so its intimate. Very good location midway between the beach and Kamakura station.
- Decent location on Yuigahama-dori. Minutes walk to the Enoden line station.
- Reasonable middle-tier niche pricing. Kamakura has a number of luxury resorts and cheap dorm style hostels, but unfortunately lacks middle-tier “business” hotels.
Very comfortable and clean with great service. Located very close to Ofuna station which is one station from Kamakura. We enjoyed the Japanese style breakfast buffet with some western bread options. Good value.
location. reception was very helpful and efficient. Lobby is spacious and plenty of comfortable seats for you to enjoy free coffee and magazines with a beautiful Japanese garden view.
It’s an beautiful small old house close to Kamakura Station. The owner is super friendly and knows a lot about the history of Japan and the Samurai.
Thank you very much!
Very nice loation, close to very good sea-food restaurant and Koshigoe station. Totally Japanese style accomodation and we can enjoy the Futon-bed with cozy room.
