Hotels With Bars in Saga Prefecture, Japan

I really loved my stay at Ureshino Onsen Taishoya. The hot spring was amazingly smooth, the rooms were clean and beautiful, and the staff were so warm and attentive. A truly relaxing and memorable experience — I would love to come back again. ♨️

Ureshino Onsen ♨️ They say your skin feels amazing after a soak, and it truly lives up to its reputation! I'd definitely come back again. This onsen hotel included breakfast and dinner with the booking. We stayed in a two-story villa, which is a bit further from the main building, about a few minutes' walk. If you don't feel like walking, the hotel offers a shuttle service, so the service is excellent. Check-in was naturally quick. The main building has an outdoor bath and various other baths, but since they're not that big, it can be hard to get a spot at night. Our villa had a private onsen, so we could take our time soaking in the room. The kaiseki meals for both breakfast and dinner were also quite good. I'd recommend booking it – we really enjoyed it!

Would definitely return to this hotel. Our room was very spacious and most importantly clean. All staff were very helpful and friendly. Their English were not very good but they tried their best with hand signals and mobile translators. We had breakfast included and the food was plentiful and delicious. The hotel offered a pick up and drop off service to and from the train station which is extremely useful. Overall a great stay.

Transportation is a bit inconvenient, and Google Maps has some problems. To summarize: Take JR from Hakata Station to Takeo Onsen, then take the local bus to Ureshino Onsen Bus Stop (Google Navigation takes me to the Hot Springs Retreat Center Station, but I actually got off three stops earlier, so I walked for nearly an hour), and then walk for 5 minutes. Facilities: The room is very clean, and you can make a private bath for free, with someone waiting to lead you. Service: When I arrived, the waiter already knew my name and came out to greet me. I experienced very warm service during my stay. There are few people in the town, and there is basically no information on Dianping, but the rare thing is the quietness. You can go to the surrounding Ureshino Park for a walk and enjoy the tranquility.

The tatami room has a large square window, offering a landscape view like a traditional Chinese painting. It was very pleasant to drink tea and chat while enjoying the scenery. Environment: A pristine natural environment. However, there are no restaurants, convenience stores, or anything else nearby... basically nothing. It's truly a resort-style stay at the hotel itself. Service: Great! Check-in was very comfortable. A butler escorted us to the lobby to relax, offered coffee and candies, and then took us to our room.

Great spot if you’re looking to unwind in tranquillity. We took the room with bath in sea view. The view was no doubt fantastic but not a great idea in winter as the shower is also in open air. The bath is facing the beach so bath with cautious (tested and yes, passerby can see ya if you stand up to move from the tub). Since it’s open air, the shower curtain tends to get into your face when the wind blows. Nonetheless, the room was spacious which was what we wanted. Breakfast was sumptuous. Enjoyed the peace along the beach.

Tailiang's first experience, from Saga, you can pick up the station in advance, the boss is enthusiastic, saw me from Shanghai, and also said that she has been to Yuyuan Garden! It is bamboo qi crab 🦀 I didn't imagine that it was spicy and delicious. The 4000 price is a bit low, but the breakfast buffet squeezed orange juice, really delicious! If you like sake, it is still very good. When you eat, you think this is not a bar! The massage chair in the public rest area is very advanced. The fatigue of the climbing ladder of the Inari is swept away. The sea view room is very good to watch the sunrise. Unfortunately, I missed it when I overslept!

I stayed for one night at Suimeiso, an annex of Wataya Bessho. It is the most expensive room type at Wataya Bessho, and there are three main grades within Suimeiso. What sets it apart from other room types is that it features a private hot spring bathtub in the room, in-room dinner and breakfast service, free access to paid public baths, and a private stay. Additionally, complimentary tea and coffee are provided in the lounge area next to the room. You can enjoy a view that feels like a private garden, and a river flows right in front, allowing you to hear the sound of the water 24 hours a day. If you particularly enjoy nature, you will not regret choosing the Suimeiso annex. If the price is a concern, Kachoen, which is one grade lower, is a good alternative. As expected of a luxury ryokan, the quality of service and meals goes without saying. Furthermore, they offer a free shuttle service after check-out, so you can use it if needed. They also provide free beverage coupons per guest, and there is a souvenir shop in the lobby, so it is worth browsing and making a purchase.

I recommend staying in the East Wing; it's newer. There are so many activities available, remember to bring your swimsuit! On the 8th floor, there's an open-air hot spring pool. On the 2nd floor, the relaxation area has four saunas; follow the marked order and timings for a full 26-minute session. At 3 PM, there's a complimentary welcome cake in the hotel lobby. Both the included dinner and breakfast are buffet-style and the food was plentiful and delicious.

Nice hotel with old world charm and service. Though the room is a bit dated, the furniture is classic, beautiful and very clean. The outdoor onsen is calming and well designed. Too bad that the restaurant was fully booked and we didn’t have the opportunity to try their highly rated dinner.
