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.

Perfect spot for visiting Kamakura. A very clean, modern, well-designed property in a quiet location, within walking distance from the station. Staff were very friendly and helpful. A big room by Japanese standards.

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.
Guest house Kamakura Zen-ji was exceptional. Hide is a friendly, helpful and gracious host. The property is comfortable, affordable and conveniently located within walking distance of shops, restaurants and the beach. Facilities are clean and accessible and provide for your basic needs. The two story out building containing the two traditional Japanese rooms is a work of art constructed by local craftsmen. Zen-ji is the perfect name as this property provides a simple, calm and relaxed environment. I hope to have a chance to stay here again.
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.
I would definitely recommend this hotel, it is perfectly located, two steps from the beach and right next to a tram stop if you want to get to the center of Kamakura and other train stations. The room was very spacious and comfortable, and you had the possibility to privatise their onsen, which was a great way to wind down after walking all around Kamakura visiting all the sights. The complimentary breakfast was delicious and the staff was lovely.
It was such a beautiful property, and an easy walk from the train station to the hotel, and from the hotel to the beach. The staff were very kind, especially as we needed to leave our bags for ~an hour before and after a checkout. My kiddo loved the bath room experience, especially in the evening before bed. My only complaint was that we could only stay one night because of our flight home. I hope to stay here again next time I'm in Kamakura!
This was one of our favourite stays in all our visits to Japan. Kamakura is such a great base and there’s so much to do. Beautiful hotel. The rooms were comfy and all amenities (incl extra pillows) were available. Staff were friendly and always helpful. Bed was big by Japanese standards - comfy too. Short 5 minute walk from Kamakura station and buses, as well as local restaurants and convenience stores. Short 12 minute walk to the beach.
Bed was super comfortable, the shower was nice, the AC was convenient, and it had large windows (though not much of a view). The slippers were better than usual! Very nice looking place, I was happy to be there. Separate toilet facilities were good too. The reception was very helpful and used easy enough Japanese that a novice like me could understand. Short walking distance to shops, beach and station was awesome!
Nice traditional hotel of Japan style, feels like a guest home cuz guests are young and friendly but everyone have their room. The staff is enthusiastic and adorable, connecting me one day in advance to show the way and check-in method. There’s also a beatiful yard and suit to take a rest with Japanese wooden sandals. If there are dispose toothbrushs, toothpastes and shavers it could be better.
The lady at Casa is super nice. There was no water yet she gave me a kettle and a tea table. The room is enough for 2 compared to general size in Japan. I am totally satisfied. Location is perfect, close to Hase Dera and Big Budha, less than 5 mins to the Hase station, and opposite to the bus station. Lots of food around.
Comfortable modern hotel right in the center of Kamakura. The only hotel during our two week stay in Japan that let us check in before 3pm. I loved the layout of the room with seating area and bathroom/shower room. The hotel was close to the station and the shrine and an easy walk to the beach.
We stayed two nights, my wife and my child, 8. Bushi and company was the best thing that happened to us in Japan, an unforgettable experience and they made good friends with the little one. The house is very authentic and we keep very good memories, the perfect situation, we loved Kamakura.
The location was just a 3 minute walk from the beach and very close to multiple cafes and shops. The area felt safe and had a laidback feel to it.
The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We felt welcomed in the guest house and would definitely stay with Iza Kamakura again!
The place is very clean , and the location is 5min far from kamakura station, it is a great place to stay at .
Everything is close from its location, the staff speak english very well, and they were helpful.
I recommend it ♥️♥️♥️
All the details they have. The location, room space, the shower, the attention of the people that receive you. The way you make people feel welcome into the Japanese culture. We cannot express how happy we were.
Breakfast was one of the best (Japanese traditional food), and my little daughter liked everything! The beach is located 10 minutes walk on foot. Overall a very convenient place to go with a family!
the beds were so comfy and the air conditioner was industrial strength. Also eating a delicious Japanese style breakfast while enjoying a beach view will be a great summer memory!
