Hotels With Bars in Saga Prefecture, Japan

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!

The Japanese-style room was spacious and comfortable, with floor-to-ceiling windows offering mountain views – a great option for a countryside getaway. Dinner was just okay, but there weren't many other choices around. The hot spring felt more like a public bath, but soaking under the stars at night was a nice experience.

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!

Overall, it had an old-fashioned feel, but it was cozy and nice. It was a great experience to be able to sleep in a tatami room, and I was satisfied with the Kaiseki meal. The only downside was that I went expecting to find a private family bath, but there wasn't one. There were bugs, possibly mosquitoes, flying around in the open-air bath, so I couldn't stay long. It was nice to experience a small Japanese town, but it was a bit disappointing!

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.

Hotel: New and clean facilities. A hotel shuttle can be booked to and from the hotel. The driver mentioned that the developer is the same company that built Ureshino Onsen Station, so they want to heavily develop tourism in the area. Ureshino has 17 hot springs, and this hotel occupies two of them. The water at this hotel is slightly slippery, but not as slippery as in Takeo Onsen. We didn't choose to have dinner at the hotel. There are Italian restaurants and izakayas nearby, and a supermarket is about a 15-minute walk away. The breakfast is plentiful. What I liked most was that each room has a private bath with hot spring water. A minor hiccup: When traveling to Ureshino Onsen, I started from Hakata, then transferred to the Shinkansen at Takeo Onsen. It turns out that the IC card cannot be used to exit the gate at Ureshino Onsen Shinkansen Station; a ticket is required. Furthermore, the IC card cannot be cancelled at the same station; the procedure must be completed at Takeo Station for the return trip. It is highly recommended to buy physical tickets if transferring at Takeo Onsen.

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. ♨️

在一個半山坡上，在意的住在温泉街好一點。 這是個歐式酒店 到處透露着老錢風。 早飯是一份一份上的，沒什麼吃的 一個香腸 一片火腿 兩個麪包，沙拉🥗半個奇異果。 温泉男的女的分開 不換班。女的室內温泉，帶個小室外泡池。也可以到他們同一個集團的另外一家酒店帶頂樓温泉，免費的。 我還是高估了這個小鎮 沒訂酒店的晚飯。 餐飲温泉街上很少 很多沒開。

The hotel is facing a beautiful lake in Saga (~15 mins away from the city centre). The distance to restaurants are walkable (~30 mins) but busses there are usually 1-hour apart (last bus at 9.40 pm). The hotel also does not have a water dispenser. Instead, they have an ice dispensing machine, vending machine (for food and drinks) and microwave at common pantries on every floor.
