Top Kamakura Hotel Reviews

The Royal Park Hotel Tokyo Haneda Airport Terminal 3

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel is conveniently on the 3rd floor for departures in Terminal 3, the International terminal. It’s quiet and perfect for a layover or even longer. Breakfast voucher was unnecessary to purchase because all the airport restaurants and stores are right up the escalator near the hotel entrance. Service was excellent, they are all so helpful, and everything was very clean. Shower was perfect, spray could be very strong and get very hot, so I had to adjust down. All toiletries provided as well as pajama. Bed was very comfortable. I absolutely recommend Royal Park."

The Yokohama Bay Hotel Tokyu

8/10 Good

"Prime location at Yokohama Bay, Minatomirai. Within walking distance of at least three large malls. Connected to Queens Square, which sits on top of a train station. Easy route to Haneda by train. We ate at the Kaiseki restaurant in the hotel and the beef quality was not nearly high enough to justify the cost of the food. Cooked and seasoned very well, but not high quality tender meat. Very chewy. Normally a hotel like this would have elevated food costs and equally elevated quality. I’m not sure whether the restaurant is independently run or is part of the hotel."

Rose Hotel Yokohama

8/10 Good

"Breakfast was good, a decent amount of options although the items were the exact same both days. The hotel room was spacious, bathroom was decent sized, lots of storage. As others have mentioned, the room decor is dated and there are not enough plus in the room."
