It’s a large hotel at the top of the hill, with great views over the harbor. The ferry to Sakurajima is about 10 min by car down the hill. There isn’t much within walking distance- you’ll need to rent a car or go by taxi to outside restaurants or shops.

It's not in a central location, but frequent free shuttle bus service makes up for it. In addition, the outdoor onsen has a great city view and view of Sakurajima. Many hotel staff can communicate in English well and provide great customer service. The hotel is big and there are many facilities/restaurants. Room is sufficiently sized, though not exactly large.

Impressive stay at Kagoshima Shirayama hotel. Their service is really top notch. We have a shuttle service to pick us up to send us to the entrance of the hotel. Then, our luggages were picked up as we were checked in swiftly. We were escorted to our room and shown around by the staff with a mini room tour before leaving us to rest. My baby was given a mini kids toiletries set which is really cute. We really had a very comfortable stay and wished we could stay for another night. I upgraded us to a room with a bigger bed and a view of Sakurajima 🌋. Best of all, it cost is reasonable to stay here for a night. 👍🏼
