I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel, especially if your budget allows for it!
The room windows offer direct views of the moat, and the hotel is incredibly close to attractions like the hot air balloon festival grounds and shrines.
**Transportation:** From Saga Station, you can take the Showa Bus (towards Karatsu) directly to the hotel. Alternatively, the most convenient option is to simply take a taxi.
**Service:** I absolutely have to commend the hotel's front desk staff! They were an enormous help! Due to heavy rains in the Kyushu region, I found myself stranded in Saga and had difficulty getting around. I wanted to arrange for my luggage to be sent directly to my next hotel in Fukuoka. A lady wearing glasses at the front desk was exceptionally helpful in assisting me with filling out the Takkyubin (luggage delivery service) forms. Even though the courier company ultimately couldn't guarantee delivery to my next hotel before my departure due to the heavy rain, the hotel staff's assistance was invaluable and greatly appreciated!
**Dining:** When it's too hot in summer, taking a break at the hotel's first-floor cafe, sipping coffee and enjoying the views, is a fantastic way to relax. (The Baumkuchen is delicious!)
Hotel is old. Hotel floor corridors are dim. Fulton are too thin. It is the first onsen hotel did not supply body location in the public bath. Room amenities such as facial products, utensils, coffee are not place in the lobby. They are in the front office counter drawer. You have to ask to get it.
But there are special shops inside the hotel. That is amazing. Free welcome green tea for each guest.
Morning 9:00-10:00 public bath stop operate for cleaning.
The hot spring water was wonderfully silky smooth, and the bathhouse wasn't too crowded, making for a very comfortable and relaxing experience. The outdoor onsen was particularly fantastic. The dinner, part of the half-board plan, wasn't very extensive, and it was a bit disappointing not to be served Saga beef, especially being in Saga Prefecture. However, the breakfast quality was excellent.
beautiful landscape
Small hotel, many old staff, warm and polite, can't speak English but can use a translator
Breakfast and dinner are good, but crabs cost extra, 3,000 yuan each, and you can drink all you want with sake (2,400 yeb)
very lovely place! it is new (opened in July 2025). The service from when your car is in the porch (There's a valet), till check out, it was perfect. The onsen was great. It's not as warm as the others but it makes staying in the onsen longer possible. Was pleasantly surprised about the complementary dinner and breakfast! Dinner was great and was paced out so it was just nice. For breakfast it was a buffet spread that was great! I love the selection and freshness. It is in between mountains so the drive might be long but so worth it for the price
The hotel is not far from the station and has a long history. The service staff are very enthusiastic. I booked a one-night stay with two meals. The food was very delicious. The outdoor hot spring environment is very good and the water is very good and clean.
The ocean view bathtub room was so nice, and the private open-air bath was even better. I couldn't use the large bath because I missed the time check, but that's a shame. The staff were also very kind. However, if your purpose is to tour Karatsu, not just spend a leisurely trip at your accommodation or walking around the town, it's a bit far from the tourist attractions, so please think carefully about your schedule.
A slippery floor of the lobby and the hotel's antique furniture is nice. What, however, it is expecting big fault. Rooms (western twin room) For Sunny carpets and beds in the damp and there I met a cockroach on the sink in the evening. I did not boncheok and the next morning I slept just turns out under belongings. By booking includes breakfast and dinner, I expected a great French meal The evening was provided by 'Montestella' La movement of the village. Inde Italian restaurant staff are friendly, but I lack the skill. Taste and zest commonplace. Breakfast was provided on the second floor of the hotel was delicious and the atmosphere was wonderful. If you ate a good dinner, euryeonman Is not see where the guests write down operations.
The food is good quality, the staff are polite and welcoming. But the hot spring facilities are average. The public pool allows diners to eat ice cream and popsicles, which seems to be very different from the traditional etiquette of Japanese hot springs. But the indoor onsen is nice.
It was my first time staying in a youth hostel. I thought it would be hard, but it turned out to be clean, tidy and warm. It really broke my stereotypes. The location is just 7 or 8 minutes walk from the JR station, on the main road. Across the road is an izakaya with all local guests. It has a sense of age and atmosphere. The food is good. I recommend everyone to try it. It's called ”Tong”. There will be two buses to take everyone away at 9:50 the next morning for Spring Airlines flights. It's not far from the bus terminal, so you can walk there. Toiletries are charged extra, so I brought my own.

JJenniferBooked an ocean view room (with breakfast and dinner) to celebrate my husband's birthday, tried to ask the hotel a few weeks before departure if a cake could be prepared, was rejected, and no other options (such as ordering a cake on behalf of others are also possible) or arrangements were offered. On the day of arrival, there was a welcome cake for guests 😅, I didn't understand why I couldn't help prepare a birthday cake. This hotel is not recommended if you want to celebrate a birthday or special day.
The rooms were large and the sea view was beautiful, but the quality of the restaurant's buffet dinner was average, and the food and service were really disappointing for a 4-star hotel. The stay was sparsely populated and the occupancy rate seemed not high. Delayed check-out for an hour, the charge is JPY6050, which is quite expensive. overall experience average, stay once is enough, will not return visit.
