Hostels in Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan

This hostel has some genuinely strong points, but also several issues that stop it from being a great stay. It’s very much a mix of highs and lows. The positives: The common room is comfortable, with very good sofas and fast Wi-Fi (though it occasionally drops out — a router upgrade would easily fix this). There’s a shared kitchen with a labelled fridge, and the location is excellent for exploring Nagasaki. Dorm rooms are good value for the price. Bed spaces are a decent size, with excellent blackout curtains that block light even if others leave the lights on. You also get a small lockbox for valuables. The negatives: Check-in is fully self-service with no reception. You’re given a folder with rules and keys, but if you need help, there’s no clear support — which can be stressful, especially for travellers without phone SIMs. There is no lift. I stayed on the fourth floor, and the narrow stairs make carrying luggage difficult. Facilities per floor are also limited: only one toilet and one shower shared between multiple dorms, plus the washer and dryer on the same floor, which feels insufficient and awkward. Extras are all paid separately (towels, toothbrushes, earplugs, etc.). A towel really should be included at this price. Guests are also expected to ***** their own bedsheets at checkout, which feels excessive. The common room layout could be improved. A large hammock takes up space and reduces seating — replacing it with chairs or bar seating would make the area far more usable. There were also staff or long-term workers frequently occupying the common room, which made the space feel less guest-focused. Air conditioning is locked and cannot be adjusted, so if you’re too hot or cold, you have no control. Would I stay again? As a backpacker on a very tight budget, yes — tahe location and price make it workable. But if you can afford it, I’d recommend paying more for a private room nearby. There are many hotels in the area offering much better comfort and support.

The location of the hotel was far from the city but there was a resort feeling. The room was large and beautiful because I stayed at the new building. I was surprised because there was beer in the welcome drink ‼️ In addition, it was very satisfying that the alcoholic beverage at dinner was free to drink. The rice was delicious. It was good that there was an open-air bath, but it was a pity that the corner 々 was beautiful. It is a hotel that I wanted to go again.

It takes less than 10 minutes to walk from Nagasaki Station. Just cross the overpass. Go up the road to APA Hotel, but it takes a bit of stairs and a hill, so it may be difficult if you have a lot of luggage or heavy luggage. The owners are friendly. The partitions in the room are opaque, so it can be bright even if all the lights are turned off at night. You need an eye mask. There is only one shower and toilet, so it is recommended to come in earlier than other guests and wash up. The same goes for the morning.

There are trams and buses nearby with frequent services, which is quite convenient. The hostel is on the fourth floor and there is no elevator. It is not recommended to bring large suitcases. The reception staff is very enthusiastic, just like returning to a relative's house. There are many people staying here, and there is only one bathroom, so you need to queue up. You can store your things for free, but there are no lockers or locks. Washing machines and dryers are available for a fee, and you can also go to the rooftop to dry clothes.

This is one of the best guesthouses I have stayed at so far, and I highly recommend it. The bedrooms are semi-private, so you can maintain a fair amount of privacy even though it is a guesthouse. The interior is decorated in white, giving it a clean feel. The location is close to Chinatown and the shopping district, making it convenient for sightseeing. The staff are also very friendly. A simple but complimentary breakfast is included. This is a guesthouse I would like to use again if I have the opportunity.

The building was old but it was a very clean and atmosphere hotel. TV, toilet and shower are shared types. It is difficult to hear the voice of other rooms, there are restaurants around and it is lively at night. Overall satisfied.

Very close to Hitakatsu Port 5 minutes walk I also rented a bicycle and traveled comfortably by bike ~ !! The room was quite spacious and cleaner than I thought, so I stayed comfortably. The bed was spacious and fluffy, so I slept well. There were many restaurants near the hostel and it was so nice in the morning because it was a view of the sea The boss was so kind and checked out and left my luggage for free. I was comfortable traveling on the last day I will book again next time I go ** !!
