The room is clean, cozy and very quiet. Size is quite sufficient. A very convenient small table. Everything works perfectly. Set of toiletries is a great. Clean towels are left on the door handle in a canvas bag, which is very eco-friendly.
I also really liked the design of the hotel and the very beautiful photos on the walls. My compliments to the photographer. It would be great to know his/her name. And I liked the stylish sign outside the hotel. Maybe you can miss it in the dark, but, from my point of view, it fits harmoniously into the landscape around the hotel. I noticed that in November the hotel celebrated its fifth anniversary, for which I would like to congratulate the team.
The hotel is very conveniently located, and it is very easy to get to Kamakura.
The breakfast is incredibly delicious, varied and balanced. Kama-age (shirasu) with rice is very tasty! The kitchen team is very friendly and positive.
I would especially like to highlight the work of the hotel team. I felt the hospitality and care even before my arrival, during the correspondence: messages in Japanese were duplicated in English. Also, the messages always contained very detailed information and instructions.
I was worried that my Japanese was not good enough yet and I had just started learning the sonkeigo topic. I am grateful to the front desk staff for their calm, patience and professionalism. I would especially like to thank the front desk employee named Tsuboi for his help. 坪井さん、気長と手伝ってくださってありがとうございました。(sorry, I hope kanji in name are correct)
Since childhood, I dreamed of visiting Japan and chose Kamakura to celebrate my birthday, so this travel was special for me. The time spent in Kamakura will forever stay in my heart, including thanks to the work of the hotel team. There are still many places I want to visit in Kamakura, incl. the Kamakura Performing Arts Center. So I plan to visit Kamakura again and will definitely stay at this hotel.

Good location close to the station, the sea and a number of tourist attractions. Bed was comfortable and the food was great, albeit a little more expensive than I was expecting.

A visit to Kamakura is what you make it. If you are here for a day and are in it for the selfies, search for "Top 10 Kamakura" and go to those places. If you want a calm, serene experience, even for a day trip, go anywhere except those places, particularly somewhere 15-minutes or more from a bus stop or Enoden station. Try out the short hiking trails North of the Giant Buddha or to the East of town. Take a morning or sunset walk on Zaimokuza Beach if it's not summer. There are a lot of quiet temples West of JR Kita-Kamakura and East of JR Kamakura and out toward Zushi. Pick one and maybe stop by another along the way: Your favorite temple may end up being the side stop! Don't feel pressured to "see everything": You can see what you didn't get to see the next time you visit. The temples aren't going anywhere. Kamakura is a walking town, but think of the walk as part of the experience. Consider stopping at a bakery or a cafe for an early lunch before the crowds arrive, then visit the temples when it's less busy.
History nerd? Try searching for "Kamakura" plus "yagura", "kiridoshi", or "oldest temple". Honestly, bypass "shrines", since this really is a "temple" town.

The hotel at Ofuna was close enough to thw station to get everywhere in Kamakura we wanted to go. We could easily have spent 3 more days there. It is a beautiful area and there is so much to see. With a good map and some simple directions from staff at the hotel and station we were easily able to get around. Kamakura is full of so much history and beautiful scenery with lots of tourist friendly shops and places to eat.

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.
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!

One of our best accomodation in our three weeks trip in Japan. The owner was super kind and helped us through Booking chat to find a good restaurant close from the hotel when we arrived.
Talking about the room itself, it could not be better. Japanese style, quite big and comfortable futones and toilet.
Perfect experience, thank you very much!
The owner Kimie san’s hearty welcome gave me a time of feeling at home. The location is good for you to enjoy a day in Kamakura at your own pace. The breakfast is served in traditional Japanese style and really nice. By staying at her B&B you can help Kimie san’s Children’s cafe.
The location is really continent, and the room and infrastructure are also much better and modern comparing to most of the hotels in Japan. In addition, it’s also pet friendly! The bath is also good, very recommended
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 .
