The hotel is 5 min walking distance from the beach and the same distance to subway station, two very popular and decent restaurants (bills & double door). Room is spacious with great view of the island and extremely quiet. I've stayed at the hotel for two nights and everything is just perfect. Hope to return to Kamakura soon.

The staff were very friendly and fluent in English. The room was very clean, spacious, and comfortable. The location is just a few minutes' walk from Kamakura station and near the shopping streets with lots of food choices.

This is a very special place indeed. The staff are so friendly and helpful with anything you need. The rooms are luxurious and really make you feel like you are staying somewhere special. The food is Michelin quality and I highly recommend you make dinner reservations, it was some of the best food we had in Japan.

3 minutes walk from the Kamakura station. Also a couple of minutes to the Kocho street. Great location to either go to the beach or into the mountains.
The hotel is very nice and clean. All the facilities and supplies are really considerable. I especially like the big bathroom. Used it every day. Excellent experience!

I greatly appreciate the very helpful and friendly staff. The room was spacious with a large bed. There was a selection of Asian and European breakfast. The European breakfast was very well prepared and tasty. The beach is just a few meters from the hotel. Unfortunately, we made a spontaneous decision and stayed only one night, but it is definitely worth staying longer.

Hasadera temple is a must see, especially during spring or autumn. In addition we visited Enoshima at dusk. Per end of november they have the whole garden and tower covered with small lights. When the weather allows you can see Mt Fuji in sunset. A hidden gem is Zeniarai Benten shrine. It is a natural spring tucked away between jagged rocks in a little valley. Legend goes that if you wash your money in the spring, it will multiply.

One should check one's room at check-in. Ours was definitely under-equipped: no chairs, no reading light, no handle in bathtub, very limited storage space for clothes, dangerous change in floor level. Otherwise, a very attractive hotel: nice patio and restaurant, beautiful landscaping, etc.

We loved our day in Kamakura!
We loved our day in Kamakura! Our hotel (Kamakura Prince Hotel) overlooked both the sea and Mt Fuji which was incredible. We used the Enoden to get around but mostly walked. We ate lunch by the beach, visited Kotoku-in and even went inside the Buddha (so interesting to see what it looked like inside!), then took a walking trail to Zeniarai Benten shrine which was beautiful. We didn't get to go to Enoshima unfortunately, but had a lovely time aside from that!

Beautiful shrines that are easy to access either by foot or by train. Such a lovely town with wonderful cafes and shops and restaurants. Beach is awesome too....even just to look at or to watch surfers.

Nice area with some tourist attractions - but most of the touristy parts are around Kamakura station. If you go up to see the Buddha and Hase Temple, there are less tourist-style shops despite being the main attractions of the area. The tourist shops around Kamakura itself are nice but the same fare you get in the rest of Japan - cute textile items made in Japan, yukatas, 'instabae' cafes and matsuri-style food.
I would personally say the Great Buddha is somewhat underwhelming, but Hasedera is one of the loveliest temples I've been to in Japan.
It's easy to get between Kamakura and Hase using the Enoshima electric railway, and there are several beaches in the area. We personally went to Yuigahama which seemed like a nice family beach - drinking alcohol isn't allowed - unlike Enoshima beach, which is often full of drunk young people. I am often a young drunk person too, but the types of people at Enoshima beach are likely to get drunk and try to 'nanpa' (pick up) young women. Instead, Yuigahama had many families and young couples and a good security and lifeguard presence.
Along the whole coast of Kamakura and Enoshima, be careful of the birds (specifically crows and black kites) as they may try to steal food. Many crows were rifling through people's, whereas a kite stole an ice cream right out of my hand.

This very charming and picturesque old Capital of Japan is situated between mountains on one side and the beach with Enoshima island on the other side. The old history and culture is present almost everywhere with lots of beautiful buildings, temples and shrines. Ideal for a couple of days sightseeing close to Tokyo and lovely walks along the beach.
Make sure to visit Hasedera Temple, Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine and Enoshima.
Really loved the beds and facilities out of 4 hostels I've stayed during my trip to Japan this round. It's about 5-10 minutes walk from the station with a supermarket on the way. The staff were kind to lend an umbrella when requested. The bed size was really comfy, with lots of space to put some bags at the edge of the bed for a 163 cm tall person. The bunk bed structure was really sturdy and gave the privacy needed between beds as well. 10/10 will come back if I ever visit Kamakura again.
Finally, it's no longer a Japanese-style plastic bathroom resembling a mold, but instead a tastefully designed Japanese tile bathroom. The cement walls and wooden veneer in the room are also carefully crafted.
Another thing I love is that it's conveniently located near a train station, but once you're inside, it's surprisingly peaceful. It feels like a hidden garden within the city, with the morning sunlight streaming into the room, creating a very comfortable atmosphere.
This is a super cute hotel within walking distance of the beach. It would make a sweet romantic place for a younger couple. It is decorated with seashells and beach decor and there is a recording of the birds of Kamakura playing during the daytime. We had breakfast and lunch there. They had several vegan options and all of us enjoyed our meals. It was very close to the Enoden line and saved me hundreds of dollars versus staying downtown. It was easy for English speakers.
This place is unique. I was looking for a more traditional lodging with affordable price and it was a perfect match. I really enjoyed the vibe of an old Japanese house. The staff showed me around, I loved the free of charge dryer and the common space. The room felt a bit cold, but I got an extra blanket. The overall atmosphere was great, definitely an experience I would recommend to anyone while in Japan, on par with staying in a ryokan or love hotel.
It is the perfect place to stay in Kamakura. 90 year old traditional Japanese house which is well preserved and very cute and cosy. Rooms are too cosy amd charming. The main sitting area allowed all of us to sit together and chat with host and other guest. Very lively and we made friends. English friendly. The host Bushi is Samurai is too fun. The experiance we had here was the best.
Close to beach and kamakura station and CAFES
The owners were so friendly and helpful and helped us learn to say things in Japanese too! It was so fun talking to them, also about architecture (they are architects). The location was perfect for seeing all of Kamakura especially the giant Buddha and hiking on the trails and seeing the other temples and shrines and the beach and going to fun restaurants!
The owner is very hospital and willing to share you a lot about everything, speaks very fluent English. The pickup service (from and to Kamakura main station) is convinent, especially when you are traveling with kids or elders. The room is clean. The location is in walking distance to Great Budda area. Free breakfast and free water bottles.
Fancy and awesome and flawless! The hostess is very nice and provided great services to us. The view of Japanese garden is gorgeous, you have to sit in the yard and experience it. The futon bed is comfortable. And the breakfast! The delicious healthy full set of breakfast🥹I love my stay in Kamakura so much. Sincerely recommend it.
Great location across from the beach and a reasonable walk to a drugstore with groceries and a convenience store. Room split AC system. Daily included breakfast is above average and sized just right, and other available meals are also very good. Nearby bus stops for transportation to either Kamakura or Zushi train stations.
great location, only an 11 minute easy walk to Kotokuin-In temple. The room was very comfortable and well equipped. The host was wonderful, he gave us lots of information and was extremely helpful and kind. Having a level of understanding of Japanese is almost essential, as host speaks very little English.
The owner Kimie san’s hearty welcome gave me a time of feeling at home. The location is good for you to enjoy a day in Kamakura at your own pace. The breakfast is served in traditional Japanese style and really nice. By staying at her B&B you can help Kimie san’s Children’s cafe.
We had a wonderful time at Enoshima! Contact was very easy with the house manager (though all in Japanese). The house is very authentic as was advertised, so I didn't feel that was an issue. The area is walking distance to the beaches, train stations, and restaurants.
It was my first time being at a Japanese-style room and it turned out to be quite amazing.
closed to the railway station and attractions. Only several-minute walk to the closest beach. Friendly for those who wanted to get up early to see the sunset.
this is an excellent hotel with very good service. the rooms are beautiful and spacious by Japanese standards. the location is perfect… easy access from the Kamakura train station but off the main tourist street.
Really nice with Japanese style. It's closed to the beach so I can walk to there. Besides, I can walk from the guest house to Hase station, Hasedera Temple and Kamakura Daibutsu Statue comfortably.
Our stay at Kishi-ke was simply perfect.
Being pretty used to 5-star hotels in the West, I can say, this family-run ryokan exceeds lots of them in atmosphere and comfort.
