Kamata Inn Social

All the usual for Japan, ie comfortable bed and nice hot bath and shower. Clean, pleasant staff, beverages available in the lounge. Bath salts so I could soak my tired muscles. The breakfast was very tasty.

No complaints but if they wanted to improve I'd recommend different coffee. It would have been fine ten years ago but in 2026 things have moved on.

The hotel is not far from many amenities, such as a main shopping street and a shotengai. The staff were good and prepared my room an hour early, which was really appreciated! The free breakfast, amenities and lounge were very nice. The WiFi worked and the room had USB outlets as well as traditional power sockets. The chair had a back, which appears to be the exception and not the rule.

My main complaint was temporary luggage storage. When I arrived early I had hoped to leave my backpack with the hotel while I went out. Unfortunately the proposal was to store the backpack on a luggage rack in the lobby right at the entrance (which is of course publicly accessible) to which the staff do not have clear line of sight. There was no alternative solution. I found the hotel difficult to find even with Google Maps (or perhaps because of). It is located by the river through a confusing series of backstreets. The pillow wasn't especially comfortable.

Comfortable and clean

Nothing

Breakfast surpassed our expectations and shuttle ride to airport good

All good
