Hotel Kensington Review

The main reason most people come to Miyazaki is to relax at accommodations at Seagaia or Aoshima, but if you can't afford those prices (or didn't book soon enough), this is a good budget choice in the city center. Located on Tachibana-dori Avenue in the heart of the city near department stores and shopping, this inexpensive establishment resembles a business hotel in its simplicity but is also popular with young Japanese women because of its location and rates. Despite its name, the only hints of England are a knight of armor guarding the drawing-room-style lobby and the afternoon tea served in the Café London. The mostly single rooms are tiny, with windows that open and sliding panels for complete darkness; ask for a room that doesn't face another building. The cheapest doubles are actually single rooms with semi-double-size beds, which are comfortable for one but cramped for two. Otherwise, there are only three rooms with double beds and two twins.

Facilities:
Restaurant; coin-op lobby computer with Internet access; coin-op washer/dryer; nonsmoking rooms

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
