Anonymous UserI rarely leave negative reviews, but this was one of the most disappointing hotel experiences I have had in Japan.
I booked a Run of House (ROH) room for my family. The booking description stated that room sizes range from 28 to 38 square meters. Based on that description, I reasonably expected that room assignments would be allocated fairly within that range.
Upon check-in, I initially asked whether it would be possible to have a room facing Huis Ten Bosch. I fully understood when I was told that a park-facing room would require an additional charge, as such rooms are often sold at a premium.
However, after entering the room, I realized that I had been assigned what appeared to be the smallest and least desirable room available.
At that point, I was no longer asking for a park view. I simply asked whether it would be possible to have a slightly larger room, especially since the ROH description clearly stated that room sizes range from 28 to 38 square meters.
What made the experience particularly frustrating was that I had already read reviews from other guests who booked the same ROH category and received significantly better rooms. One guest mentioned being assigned a park-view room after making a request, while another guest appeared to have received one of the hotel’s best room categories despite booking ROH.
When I politely asked why other guests with the same booking category seemed to receive much better room assignments while I was given the smallest room available, the front desk was unable to provide a clear explanation.
Instead, I was repeatedly told that any room change would require an upgrade fee. At one point, I was even told to contact the booking platform and ask the platform to pay for the room change.
This response made very little sense. I was not asking for a free upgrade. I was simply asking for transparency and consistency regarding how ROH rooms are allocated.
After a lengthy discussion, the hotel eventually moved us to a slightly larger room. However, the replacement room was located on the lowest floor, at the far end of the corridor, with a partially obstructed theme park view. While I appreciated the effort, it reinforced the impression that alternative rooms were available, yet no clear explanation was ever provided regarding the original room assignment.
My disappointment is not that I did not receive the best room. I fully understand that ROH bookings do not guarantee upgrades. My concern is that the hotel advertises a room size range of 28–38 square meters, creating the expectation that room assignments may reasonably vary within that range.
If ROH guests are always assigned the smallest and least desirable room available, even when larger rooms remain vacant, then the hotel should simply advertise the room as 28 square meters. That would allow guests to make an informed decision before booking.
For families travelling with children, room size matters. Had the listing clearly indicated that ROH guests would receive a 28-square-meter room, I would likely have selected a different room category from the beginning.
The hotel itself is in a convenient location and the facilities are generally good. However, the handling of this situation left a very negative impression. Based on this experience, I would strongly recommend booking a specific room category rather than ROH, so that expectations are clear from the outset.

Guest UserHighly recommended to everyone who comes and especially those coming for Miffy! Hotel Amsterdam is just next to the Miffy Wonder Square.
Although I wasn’t able to book the Miffy themed room this time, the room we stayed was also very good enough. Super spacious with the toilet and bathroom separated. The buffet breakfast was great too.
Had a comfortable stay and will come back if I visit Huis Ten Bosch again.

Guest UserThe front desk service is excellent, really appreciated for Ms. Kritima who helped me to open the door when I left the key card inside the room, she is very nice and proactively assisted it. By the way, Mr. Yoon is so professional to assist on self-service of luggage locker and really helpful to find out the lost item of ice nick ring after we checked out. I would like to send my great thankful to them.

This hotel boasts an unbeatable location right in front of Nagasaki Station, which was a huge plus. The rooms are cozy but impeccably clean, and the staff were incredibly friendly, making my stay very pleasant. It's especially convenient for travelers with Amu Plaza and convenience stores nearby. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great value for money.

It's located on a pretty steep hill, and there isn't much commercial activity around. You'll need to take a bus to get into the city center. There's a bus stop right outside the hotel, conveniently named after the hotel itself. Make sure you get off at that stop; getting off even one or two stops earlier will mean a steep climb.
It's not far from the summit of Mount Inasa, and there's a direct bus. If you miss the bus after enjoying the night view, a taxi back to the hotel is only about a 5-minute ride and reasonably priced.
The hotel's own free rooftop observation deck is absolutely amazing, and enjoying a drink and the night view in the lounge is also very pleasant.
There's a shuttle bus service from the hotel to Nagasaki Station.
There's also a hot spring (onsen).

The location is a bit off the beaten path, making it ideal for self-driving tourists. Due to its proximity to nature, you might occasionally encounter a few insects in the rooms, but the hotel is generally clean and well-maintained. It boasts a wide array of recreational facilities, along with services such as restaurants, hot springs, and massages. The pricing is reasonable, offering good value for money, so you can easily spend a full and enjoyable vacation without leaving the hotel. I highly recommend it for families looking for a relaxing getaway!

LiduoxiliaolinuolisiThe Guangmang Hotel is an excellent choice all around, offering great value for money. The rooms are spacious, and the decor is stylish. The outdoor hot spring, with its night views, is incredibly relaxing and therapeutic. Plus, the hotel is right next to Chinatown.

Great location for boat excursions and Dejima compound. 20 minutes walk to Chinatown and just a little further to Glover Gardens - trams and buses are convenient from the hotel if preferred. Just 2 tramstops to Nagasaki Station.

This is a great hotel, conveniently located near Chuo-bashi (Central Bridge) and Nagasaki Station, with easy access to public transport. The hotel facilities are excellent and comprehensive, including a washing machine and dryer, a large public bath, breakfast service, and a bar. The 3rd and 11th floors offer panoramic city views through their floor-to-ceiling windows. The service is also superb, truly impeccable. One thing to note is that disposable slippers are not provided, so you'll need to bring your own.
However, there was one significant issue: my room had a strong body odor smell, and the entire 9th-floor hallway smelled the same. Even opening the window didn't get rid of it, and the air freshener provided by the hotel didn't help either. Perhaps I was just unlucky.

步行 | TravellerThis is definitely one of the best hotel in Nagasaki and quite affordable. I was very perplexed how cheap this hotel was, given that it has a huge room, public bath, sauna and amazing breakfast. This said, there are some issues I had. First is that the hotel’s location requires a bit of a walk from the station, which is not bad except you may need to go to the station more frequently because there are only a few good restaurant around the hotel. The public bath was a bit dirty because so many people were using it. There were definitely things floating in the water. Except for these issues other things were good.
