2nd time staying here, and it was once again great. Clean, spacious (for Japan), great staff, and great location. The only downside is the hotel has become popular with tour groups since last year, so every morning a new bus load would leave, and every evening a new busload would check in. Still, the rooms are well insulated, so I never heard anything, just know that this is a popular hotel, so checking in or out during peak hours might take a little while.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The rooms were extremely small and the staff just seemed absolutely incompetent. As soon as we got to the first desk, there was another group arguing with the front desk and I should have took that as a sign. The staff was not diligent at all when it came to the check in process. There were different people just trying to figure out the same thing. Additional upfront charges like breakfast and accommodations fees. The lady gave us cards and never told us the room until I asked. Just wasn’t a pleasant experience from the start and regret spending my money here.

The hotel seems fairly new and was very clean. Moreover, the location is right by a tram stop, and is a very short walk to a lot of restaurants and stores, including a nice Shinshigai (large covered shopping area) that is across the street. Only about a 20 minute walk to Kumamoto Castle as well. The bed was very firm, which some might not like, but I thought it was good.

Ms. Kim deserves a raise at Grid Hotel!

Ms. Kim who was at the front desk was amazing. I saw her handle Korean, Japanese and English speaking customers. She does the work of three people and in a very caring manner. She made my check in so smooth. Thank you and Kim!
