Wonderful 3 night stay at a sleepy seaside town. Easy access via Enoden to Kamakura & Enoshima. Restaurants close around 8 so be sure to have early dinner. Try sweet potato crepes by the beach and beware of hawks swooping in for your food. Nearby up the slope is a small dining and shopping area with a supermarket & fantastic ramen shop. Note to take free shuttle bus from busstop next to station or inclined elevator via banquet hall from main road (or risk having to pull luggages up a steep slope!). Tip if heading straight to Airport. Book Narita Express no. 27 from Ofuna direct to Narita Airport. Simply take an Enoden from Shichirigahama station to Enoshima station. Then, walk to the building behind and take Shonan monorail to Ofuna for a quiet ride with luggages.

I stayed here for a quick one-night stop and found it very comfortable overall. The room was quiet, which made it easy to relax, and the view outside was especially nice. The beds felt a bit small for adults, but that was expected and didn’t take away from the stay. I didn’t try breakfast, so I can’t comment on that, but I’d happily come back to Kamakura Prince Hotel.

The restaurant is in one of the large, bright rooms overlooking the sea. The service is courteous and professional. The lunch box prepared for the occasion is very beautiful to look at, but the fact that everything is cold leaves much to be desired. A shame.

The main reason to book this hotel is the magnificent view from the room. It is genuinely breathtaking, and waking up to such a view is an absolute pleasure. Unfortunately, that is where the positive aspects of my short stay at Kamakura Prince Hotel come to an end. The problems began the moment we checked in. We arrived a little after 5 p.m., only to discover that the swimming pool—the second reason I had booked this hotel in the first place—would be closing at 6 p.m. Unsurprisingly, we had no chance to use it that day. The next issue we encountered was the complete lack of even a basic command of English among the front desk staff. And yes, I am perfectly understanding when people do not speak English. However, there is one important exception: hotel employees whose job is to interact directly with international guests. Once we got to our room, it was clear that it had seen better days. The furnishings are beginning to show their age, although the room itself remains perfectly pleasant. And, of course, it is impossible to overlook the spectacular view of the ocean waves. The following morning, we decided to make another attempt at using the swimming pool. However, the staff tried to explain that we needed some sort of tickets to enter the pool—even though access was included in the room rate. This was the first time anyone had mentioned these tickets to us. After about five minutes of confusion, we were eventually allowed in, only to discover that the pool was freezing cold. Unsurprisingly, after swimming a couple of laps, we got out. As a final touch, the hotel also gently reminded guests that slippers were not to be worn around the property and that tattoos should remain covered at all times. While I understand and respect that these are the hotel’s policies, they certainly added to the rather rigid atmosphere of the stay. During check-out, the front desk staff did not ask how our stay had been. Instead, the entire farewell consisted of the remarkably concise: “No extra pay, goodbye.” A little on the dry side.

Even though it rained heavily that day and we couldn’t see Mount Fuji from the room, our affection for the hotel wasn’t affected. The room was decent and spacious, and the most impressive part was the Japanese restaurant. The service and food were amazing, and it became one of our favorite restaurants on the trip.

Great views of Enoshima Island and Mt. Fuji, although Mt. Fuji was unfortunately covered during our stay. The room felt a bit dated, but everything was still functional. Overall, it didn’t feel worth more than ¥50,000 given the limited amenities and older furnishings. On the plus side, parking was convenient, and the hotel is located close to Shichirigahama Station and the beach.

Hotel staff helped us do luggage forwarding to our next accomodation, fuss free experience. Very scenic view, within walking distance to the famous train crossing junction. However, location is quite far from the nearest train station (10-15mins walk), but the hotel provides free shuttle buses.

All hotels in Japan including Kamakura, providing no room service except changing of bed linens, towels etc. even after the hotels are changing exorbitantly. These are not fair whatever be the custom of their own lifestyle. They are charging a lot of money as the hotel room charges per day from the foreigners.

Where can I eat near Kamakura Prince Hotel?

You can eat right at the hotel: Le Trianon serves French cuisine, Onzoshi Kiyoyasutei offers traditional Japanese kaiseki, and there's a Lounge Ajisai for a drink. The hotel's cafe and snack bar are also handy for lighter bites anytime. Since the hotel sits on a hill above the coast, staying in for a meal with a sea view is a great option after exploring the area. For more casual dining, the walk down toward Shichirigahama Station passes seaside spots worth a look. Your hotel's own dining options are the most reliable choice for a full meal without going far.

What is the area around Kamakura Prince Hotel like?

Kamakura Prince Hotel sits on a gentle green hill above Sagami Bay, with wide ocean views toward Enoshima and Mt. Fuji. Shichirigahama Beach is about a 3-minute walk using the incline elevator, a scenic shore famous for its coastline. The town of Kamakura itself is a short ride away, rich in history with shrines and temples tucked into nature. Gokuraku-ji is a 17-minute walk, and Hase-dera is a 22-minute walk, both easy to reach on foot. Komachi-dori, near Kamakura Station, offers shops and cafés, though it's a bit farther out. The hotel's own Restaurant Le Trianon and Lounge Ajisai provide dining right on site.

How do I get to Kamakura Prince Hotel from the airport or main train station?

From Shichirigahama Station on the Enoshima Electric Railway, it's about an 8-minute walk along the seaside road to the banquet hall, then take the incline elevator up to the hotel. A free shuttle bus from the station is also an option, taking about 5 minutes. From Kamakura Station, take the Enoden to Shichirigahama Station, then walk or catch the shuttle; a taxi from Kamakura Station takes about 15–20 minutes. From Fujisawa Station, the Enoden ride takes about 19 minutes, then walk or shuttle from Shichirigahama. The hotel is on a hill, so the incline elevator is the direct way up.

What's there to do near Kamakura Prince Hotel in the evening?

For evenings, start at the hotel's own Lounge Ajisai, which becomes a quiet bar, or dine at Restaurant Le Trianon or Onzoshi Kiyoyasutei while watching the sunset over Sagami Bay. Within a short walk, Gokuraku-ji is just 17 minutes away secret is that places like this usually don't need reservations, but it's worth checking when you're there. If you want a livelier night, the train from Shichirigahama Station to Kamakura Station takes about 15 minutes from our facts. There, the Komachi-dori area is known for its evening shops and eateries, though the walk back is best done by taxi or shuttle from the station. Kamakura's shrines and temples close to dusk, so focus on seaside views and the hotel's own spots after dark.

Is Kamakura Prince Hotel a good base for exploring Kamakura?

Yes, Kamakura Prince Hotel is a good base for exploring the city. Gokuraku-ji is a 17-minute walk away and Hase-dera is 22 minutes on foot, so you can start with nearby temples. Kotoku-in, home to the Great Buddha, is 2.2 km and best reached by taxi or the Enoden train from Shichirigahama Station. Further sights like Tsurugaoka Hachiman-gu are 4.3 km, so plan for a short ride or a longer day trip. The hotel's shuttle bus and local Enoden line make it easy to get around. For a relaxed seaside stay with easy access to Kamakura's highlights, this location works well.
