    I booked a room for 3pax stay and it was spacious enough for 3 of us. There was ample walking space even if all of our luggages open. The Kumamon bears and the souvenirs from the hotel were a bonus, they gave each of us a plastic folder and a Kumamon Bear sticker. The onsen bath was also a bonus.

    The reception is very friendly and fluent in English. The location is a bit away from the concentrated activities area. Also meaning that it is quiet at night. The space of the room is superb and provided the option to sleep on floor (tatami) with futon if the bed is doesn't suit the need. Very clean with washing machine in the room. The washing machine doesn't come with dryer, but the clothes can be hanged in the bathroom that they will dry up in around 2 hours.

    This is a small family run ryokan. The owner - Hiro san and wife offered great hospitality and helped us to carry our heavy luggage to our rooms. We like the dinner prepared by them... it was delicious and taste home cooked. We feel 'at home'. The tatami room is comfortable for 2 paxs. Though it's a small ryokan, all the amenities are provided adequately. There's parking beside ryokan, just have to pay. Would love to stay here again.

    We had an amazing stay at the Tamaki Ryokan in Kumamoto. The room was a gorgeous tatami room, and was very clean and cozy. We also loved waking up to a delicious home-cooked breakfast. The owners kindness and hospitality was one of the highlights of our time in Japan, and they were very accommodating when we asked to store our luggage there on the day of our departure. We hope to stay here again next time we are in Kumamoto, and would highly recommend this ryokan to others.

    A surprisingly large room with a table and bed. Very quiet and comfortable. The onsen on sixth floor is nice and unique, with tatami mat floors! The location is just five minutes from Kumamoto Castle.
