Located in Kumamoto and within 2.3 km of Hosokawa Residence Gyobutei, Tudzura features a bar, non-smoking rooms, and free WiFi throughout the property. The property is situated 2.5 km from Kumamoto Castle, 5.2 km from Suizenji Park and 13 km from Egao Kenko Stadium Kumamoto. Kumamoto City Museum is 1.8 km away and Contemporary Art Museum Kumamoto is 2.4 km from the hostel. Super thankful to be accommodated as a solo traveler. The host and staff are very nice and thoughtful. I was amazed by the interior design, and selection of refreshments/drinks/books here, everything is crafted in details and I can feel their efforts and seriousness. It’s truly impressive to be staying in a historical building and surrounded by wood, while enjoying the neat environment and modern design of shared bathroom. This’s also a good location for people who want to slow down and prefer less busy areas. Walkable distance to tram and JR stations, and the nearby area of Shirakawa River’s definitely nice for a walk. And don’t forget to order fine sake by 9pm if you’d like to taste more!
