Very nice place and very friendly staff. Beds are confortable and everything is super clean. Breakfast was very tasty although quantity was a bit limited for my taste. The shared bath has to be booked when you check-in. So it's great because you have the bath for yourself, but also you cannot use it freely since it might be booked by other rooms. Altogether a great experience in Kamakura.

Apparently they are used to welcome people with their dogs (they even have a specific item on the menu for dogs). No problem for us, but some might find it unconfortable.

The hotel is amazing. The rooms are massive by Japanese standards, it’s 2 minutes from the beach but still quiet and the facilities including private class are much higher quality than the cost of the stay would make you think. We had the tasting menu two nights in a row from the hotel restaurant and it was unbelievably reasonably priced and absolutely delicious. The second night the chef asked if we’d like anything different and also made a bespoke cake for my birthday with a birthday message written in chocolate sauce. Wee details like this are amazing! Staff are incredibly friendly. It’s a small, high class boutique hotel with an incredibly small fee for what you get. Go here.

We loved it, but if you don’t like dogs you might not like the fact other guests may have their dog with them. It wasn’t intrusive or loud because of this, just relevant for those with allergies or phobias perhaps.

Lovely location and very easy to find. A modern, low rise building set in a beautiful garden. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and gracious. Our room was big and had everything we needed. A good size shower and lovely comfortable beds. The food was fresh and imaginative - really enjoyed our evening taster meal and breakfast.

This is a hotel that allows dogs. Unfortunately, there is quite a lot of barking - when we registered, at dinner and whilst we were in our room; including in the early morning. It's not really the hotels fault - more bad pet ownership. But be aware - if barking disturbs you then look elsewhere.

It's a beautiful serene hotel with a very refined and zen vibe on a quiet street. The staff are extremely kind and helpful. The hotel has the design aesthetics of a very high end resort while being reasonably priced. We really enjoyed the hot bath. The terrace area is lovely for having breakfasts or just drinks. The hotel is conveniently located just a few minutes away by train from the main Kamukura train station. The same train that runs from the main station to the hotel also goes to the train station serving the Enoshima Island. From the hotel, it's a short walk to many charming restaurants, cafes, and stores in town, many serving snacks and desserts that have a unique local favor. We also enjoyed running on the beach front trail which is about 100 feet from the hotel. There is a stunning view of Mt. Fuji on the trail.

Stayed with adult daughter. Bird Hotel is exceptional! Walking distance to water, restaurants, and temples. We enjoy walking. The design and calm atmosphere of hotel is outstanding. Delicious Japanese breakfast and soothing private hot bath (reserve). The professional and friendly staff allowed us to keep our luggage the hotel day of checkout. They were sympathetic to our needs after hawk and crows swooped down and stole our sushi. Don’t eat food on the beach! Highly Bird Hotel as will recommend to all and will stay again on next visit to Kamakura.

What a delight! Wonderful location (easily reachable by public transit), close to the beach, peaceful and relaxing atmosphere, beautiful and simple decor. The most comfortable bed of our entire trip in Japan. It was warm enough during our stay in October to be able to have breakfasts and dinners outside, which made it feel like summer, only without the crowds. Japanese friends from Tokyo came down for dinner with me and each made a note to come back again for a stay. I never wanted to leave!

The coffee in the morning was rough (bitter). I'm not sure if it was the coffee itself or the amount used, I feel like it was the former. The Bird's kitchen is all about supporting local and artisanal producers; they might need to look for another coffee roaster to support.

We just loved everything. Set just a few steps away from the sea down a quiet little road and hidden behind trees. Bird is a beautiful, small, excpetionally clean, modern hotel. You will just fall in love with it. And the help and assistance we had to get us on a 5am train to the airport was beyond kind. We couldnt get a taxi that our early so the hotel kindly drove us to the station - we are so very grateful. Thank you. We didnt want to leave.

Staff were exceedingly helpful with need to divert travel plans d/t typhoon- the front desk gentleman went above and beyond to have our luggage transferred from our hotel in Osaka (where we had forwarded it before going to Kamakura) to a different hotel in Tokyo (where we had to divert to get flight home and avoid typhoon related issues at KIX). Location close to train station Breakfast is very fresh and made when ordered- Japanese and Western options available I did not use it but was told by other group members that the tub/onsen-like bath was very relaxing. Rooms are extraordinarily spacious

We like everything about this hotel: friendly receptionist and staff, very spacious room, nice ambiance of the room and the dinning room, etc. The cook-to-order breakfast sets were simple but extremely fresh and tasty. We also enjoyed the lovely private onsen bath that could be reserved free of charge. Even though the location was two short train stops away from the Kamakura Train Station and the Tsurugaoka Shrine, the hotel is actually within walking distance to the Great Buddha and the Hasedera Temple, and is only one block from the ocean. The place is such a gem!

Nothing we can think of.

I would definitely recommend this hotel, it is perfectly located, two steps from the beach and right next to a tram stop if you want to get to the center of Kamakura and other train stations. The room was very spacious and comfortable, and you had the possibility to privatise their onsen, which was a great way to wind down after walking all around Kamakura visiting all the sights. The complimentary breakfast was delicious and the staff was lovely.
