Dining
Café&Meal MUJI is on the first floor. Breakfast is a guest-only buffet with about 80 dishes, and the restaurant also serves an all-day menu from late morning.
Location and transport
The hotel is a short walk from Kamakura Station, where JR services connect with Yokohama, Tokyo, Shinagawa, and Ofuna. The adjacent Enoden terminal makes the location convenient for Hase, the Great Buddha area, Shichirigahama, Enoshima, and Fujisawa.
Why stay here
Hotel Metropolitan Kamakura is best suited to travelers who want to stay in central Kamakura rather than commute in for the day. Its main advantages are the two-minute station walk, immediate access to central sightseeing streets, and easy Enoden connections for coastal stops.
Good to know
Parking is limited and requires advance reservation, and roads around Kamakura can become heavily congested. Rail, Enoden, buses, and walking are usually the easier way to use this location.
