I stayed at Kakegawa with the purpose of takin Oigawa Railway to Oku-oi kojo Station (奥大井湖上駅). unfortunately part of train route was suspended due to landslide. This news is unknown to foreigners. I asked the counter staff when i sensed something was not right as Gmap was not able to produce a proper route for me to go to Oku-oi kojo Station. I spoke to him late at night and he gave full explanations the next morning. His spirit of dedication really impressed me.

The location is 20 minute walk from train station. During the walk we found many interesting eating places along the street. My suggestion is for the hotel to produce a map showing the English names and some details of these eating places. It will help us plan our food places quickly.

Most hotels are situated on the southern side of Kakegawa Station while Dormy Inn Express Kakegawa is located where you may get a spectacular view of the Kakegawa castle. The onsen opens from 3pm to 10am of the next day. You can use the washing machines for free and the dryers with a small fee. There are many restaurants to choose from around the area.

Rooms can be two times more expensive during weekends than the rest of the week.

We stayed 2 nights in Kagegawa for the cutiest shoebill --Futaba san. One night we had chosen to stay at a hotel near to the south station and the 2nd night to the north station--Dormy Inn. By comparison, I have to say that we enjoyed much more to stay at Dormy for its facilities & more welcoming, cozy atmosphere. The hotel is attentive to services in many ways even it's farer to stay there to the Kakegawa Kachoen but it is definitely worth-well to do so. There's a walk distance restaurant justa cross from the hotel to serve good foods also. The hotel breakfast was nice, too!

Free use of the washer while that of the dryer is ¥100 / 20 minutes. Microwave ovens are available. Free coffee. Hotspring is also free for guests staying in the hotel. Excellent view of the castle.

The pillow was stiff. It is possible to open the window but there is no mosquito net.

There were free public baths for both genders (women’s one had a code to ensure privacy). Room was clean, lots of towels provided and provided bathrobes for the baths. Really close to some amazing food options just down the street.

The lights were a bit tricky to get right.

Wonderful staff, even held our luggage for us 2-3 hours after checkout time. Also let us check early for small fee. The room was nice, had enough space for both our luggage and felt good to be in.

The pillows were small and rock hard. Not sure if they have other types we could have asked for.

The room was very clean and comfortable with a great view of Kakegawa Castle from the 10th floor. The onsen was lovely and the free water, ice creams, and night-time ramen were an added bonus.

No complaints.

The breakfast is good 👍, and onsen also good , laundry 🧺 facilities are good , washing is free ! And so sweet they prepared small treats on that floor for all customers.

The pillows !! The pillows are far too hard and uncomfortable 🥴.

Everything was great, clean comfortable room, really nice onsen, rich breakfast for 1800yen per person. Really close to the train station and the main streets of Kakegawa.

Very clean and well-designed for a small hotel. Onsen on the top floor which provides a good view of the city. The hotel provides free coffee which you can grab on the way out in the morning.
