| "We had a really nice stay at the Tokyo Hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful, the rooms were great, including the fantastic views of Sakurajima across the bay. Breakfast was extensive and plentiful, but drinks at other times were very expensive (coffee 600 yen a cup). The only provisos are that it is a long way to town (taxis averaged 2000 yen each way), the nearest tram stop was a long walk, and there was no information on which bus to catch, even though they were frequent. The hotel is, however, very close to the ferry terminal to Tarumizu, altough this shows that it is in a commercial area of Kagoshima. Recommended as a really nice hotel, but hire a car - parking is free." |

| "I'ts very far away to the center of the city and the station. They say 5 minutes near the centre and it's 30-40 minutes. The hotel is good and have good views. " |

| "We had an ocean view of Mt. Sakurajima from our excellent room. The outdoor pool was closed when we were there but the spa was open and they were very enjoyable. The staff was very friendly and helpful despite our limited Japanese. And the breakfast was first class.
It's a 20 minute taxi ride from the Kagashima-Chuo station but there were plenty of restaurants close by and plenty of great areas to walk.

| "The Tokyu Hotel is a real gem. The views of Sakurajima Volcano from the room/balcony are great. There is an excellent Hotspring and outdoors swimming pool. Moreover, staff was very friendly and helpful. I would recommend staying here." |

| "The location of the hotel is wonderful, because from the hotel room we can see the beautiful sea. Also, the personnel there are very kind and friendly. The only drawback is that there are not many shops around the hotel. " |

| "We liked the triple room which was large enough to accomodate suitcases and still allow easy movement around the room. We also enjoyed the view from our balcony of the marina and fishing pier below with Sakurajima puffing ash across the bay. Having a breakfast buffet included with the (internet booked) room fee simplified our stay, and the food served included Western & traditional Japanese dishes with some Kagoshima specialties.
The front desk was able to exchange U.S. dollars to yen, but didn't have the ability to do the same with major credit cards. We were, however, able to use a credit card for room charges and gifts in the small gift shop. (Just a side note, none of the taxis in Kagoshima took credit cards, so lots of cash was always needed since the Tokyu Hotel is a bit of a drive from most places.)
The staff, although helpful, seemed a bit cool, definitely less outgoing and friendly compared to what we had previously experienced at the Sun Royal Hotel nearby. The exception were the girls who ferried our luggage. They always had big smiles and were warm and polite.
We did appreciate the same day laundry service and assistance with express shipping within Japan. (An inexpensive way to move items around if your suitcases get too overloaded!)
Overall, with the larger rooms, the quiet environment, and our basic needs having been met, we enjoyed the Tokyu Hotel and would stay there again.
