It was recommended that we stay at Kamakura Prince if we wanted a good view of Mt Fuji. We were very fortunate to have a great view of Mt Fuji at sunset on the day we checked in. The staff was very cordial and helpful, the breakfast was okay, and housekeeping seemed to do the best they could with this property.

It is obvious that this hotel is very old, and that major repairs and renovations are not in their plans. The bathroom was so old and you could see MOLD in the rough grout. The metal overhead vanity light fixture showed a lot of RUST (there was no ventilation in the bathroom). It was not pleasant. Prior to Kamakura Prince, we stayed at three other hotels (Tokyo, Kanazawa, and Kyoto). Unfortunately, Kamakura Prince was the most expensive hotel, but the least desirable.

the beds were very comfortable, the extra wide double bed is a super king bed. the staff was very helpful with our request for a cot for our son. beautiful view on the ocean.

the hotel was a bit dated but well maintained. the cot was also a bit old but it worked. there was no a strong ventilation in the bathroom though. the in room dinner and breakfast were good but a bit on the expressive side for Japan

We loved the room, we had an amazing view of the town and could even see Mt Fuji! There was also a shuttle bus to the nearest station that was offered, which we greatly appreciated. The station was only 10 mins away by foot but it feels much longer when you’re pulling your luggage! The bed was HUGE, and so comfortable. The staff were lovely, we had a lovely stay there.

The bathroom wasn’t as lovely as the rest of the room was, I think the design could be improved on if any renovations will be undertaken in the future. My partner and I thought the sink was blocked up, but realised that we just don’t know how to use the sink (there was a lever we didn’t know was a lever).

Calm quiet hotel in a handy location with seaviews. A lovely change of pace during a busy holiday in Japan Large bathroom with separate shower and bath. Room was clean, and spacious . .

Nowhere to sit in the evening and enjoy a drink. The same breakfast was served everymorning,with limited choice of breads and no fruit. Shuttle bus finishes early and should really run to Kamakura station.

The hotel is set high on a hill overlooking Enoshima Island and Mt. Fuji. The view is, simply, stunning. The village is a quiet little seaside town, which suited us perfectly. The electric train runs along the coast, linking the little towns to Kamakura. The hotel has is a swimming pool (closed when we were there), a golf driving range next door, and a lot of sea activities, such a surfing and small boat/board sailing. It would be a great spot for a few days of R&R from whirlwind touring. The hotel offers a free bus service to and from the local station, but you can walk to anywhere in the village, where there is a (limited) range of restaurants - the food we tried was excellent. The hotel also serves meals. Our room was large and comfortable, with a good amount of clothes storage, a full-size closet, a desk/make-up space and good mirror, a coffee table and chairs, and a small balcony. The bathroom is also large, with a generous sized bathtub. Everything was sparkling clean. Reception and other staff were friendly and very welcoming; communication was easy as many spoke good English. If you decide to stay, book a landmark view room on the 4th floor. Well worth the extra price. But, be warned Fuji-san is not always in view, we had a lot of sea mist on our visit so you may only get half the view you’ve paid for.

I liked everything! The only comment I have is that the decor is a little dated and there seem to be a lot of rules about dress code and food - bringing your own food and drink into the hotel is forbidden.

Excellence view and welcoming employees. The room is also very good and the hotel is very close to the ocean.

I think the hotel is quite dark designed/ not very bright lights. The pool is only open June to August. There is a bus going from the station to the hotel only until afternoon, therefore accessing this hotel with suitcases and without a taxi is not a good idea.

the view from the rooms are outstanding. you can see the ocean and on one day we also saw the Fujisan! it was amazing! the beds were very comfortable and you have actually everything you need in the room. the staff was really friendly and helped us changing the room, because our window was a little bit milky and we didnt had a good view. we told the staff at the front desk and they immediatly looked for another room, in which we could change.

i booked the breakfast (for about 20$ per person), but my boyfriend is vegetarian and the buffet was definatly not made for vegetarians. he had an Omlett and a salad plus bread. so the 20$ wasnt worth it for him, this was a bit disappointing. they could offer more for vegetarians!!!

From the hotel's podium, you can enjoy a marvellous view of the ocean and Enoshima Island. It's a perfect spot for capturing stunning sunset photos. The hotel is just within 5-minute walk to Shichirigahama Beach and 10 10-minute drive to Enoshima Island. The Japanese dinner at Onzoushi Kiyoyasutei, located next to the hotel, is excellent but a bit pricey.

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.

Great view of Mt Fuji on the clear days. Inside tip is to walk to the hotel wedding center a short distance from the 7-11 near the station and take the elevator up to the hotel lobby.

The omelette choice on the included breakfast was just okay.
