Hotels near Cruise, Saga

We came to Yanagawa to see and ride on the old canals and stayed at this authentic Japanese hotel for a night . Nice place right beside the canal where you can see the boats going by. There were three of us so we had a big room, one part Western with two single beds the other part was a Japanese tatami mat room where the staff made up a bed on the floor while we were at dinner. Booking in was easy and staff super polite which is the normal in Japan. Before dinner we went to the hot springs bath and relaxed in the lovely hot waters. We had booked in for dinner 6.30 pm. in the main dining room , we went in the Yukata’s that the hotel provided, very relaxing. Dinner was a set menu, typical Japanese food, about ten little bowls containing different items, miso soup, different Sashimi’s, chicken , pickles , eel, which this area is famous for and another lovely small fried fish, plenty to fill you up and for sweets a huge piece of water melon. The room did have a bath and shower but didn’t use them as we used the hot spring baths, there was free wifi, a safe and good TV. Slept well. First thing in the morning we went to the outside hot bath before going and enjoying a smorgasbord breakfast. In the Rockpool baths they supply all you need , body soap , shampoo, conditioner, hairdryers etc, always a nice experience. Typical Japanese breakfast , no cereals but plenty to choose from. We had trout and puffer fish, plenty of veggies, the scrambled egg was scrumptious. Plenty of fruit, mango , orange and delicious pineapple. While we went of doing a boat ride on the canals the hotel held our luggage for us, very handy. The hotel also has a good gift shop. We enjoyed our stay, gives you a real Japanese hotel experience.

Central easy walk to great restaurants and quenelles and sightseeing highlights of Yanagawa. Modern reception with ultra friendly staff who made us feel most welcome even with the language barrier. Kuniko-San was on reception when we checked in and served us breakfast each day. She was so helpful, engaging and incredibly welcoming. Traditional Japanese Breakfast was included in our tariff and changed each morning, delicious, pickled vegetables, grilled fish, rice with Tsukudani, miso , marinated octopus with vegetables, tamago & green tea & filter coffee. The room was traditional Japanese large and spacious 10 tatami with extra futons for increased cushion. The best part was the view from the room overlooking a lovely traditional Japanese garden, very private, and shielded from the bright morning sun by surrounding trees. I highly recommend this lovely hotel for an authentic Japanese experience

I came to Kyushu at the end of the year and the beginning of the year and looked for a hotel near Fukuoka Tenjin to go to Dazaifu on New Year's Day, but I was here because it was expensive and Yanagawa was cheaper than Tenjin, and the train flight was good. １ night ８３００ yen was cheaper than the center of Fukuoka, and it was convenient for sightseeing within １ hours by train for the distance to go to Dazaifu the next day. It is a few minutes walk from the station to the hotel (the opposite direction to the shuttle bus stop down the boat). The room was also very good for the price.

Friendly staffs, clean rooms. Right beside Saga station which have a lot of restaurants around. Complimentary breakfast provided and there is quite a lot of choices. Can wash your laundry at level 7. Only accept 100 yen coins for laundry payment, just change with the front desk if needed.

There are free bread and coffee in the morning and all the people are friendly. It was very convenient because it was close to Saga Station

Public transportation is inconvenient, it is recommended to drive by car, there are many hot springs nearby to choose from, the proprietress is very enthusiastic and proficient in Chinese, will carefully recommend the surrounding attractions 👍🏻

ONCRI It is read as Oncri. I couldn't stay overnight, so I used the day trip hot spring. ONCRI is the big building you can see right in front of you as you enter the hot spring town of Furuyu. My first impression was, ”It's big!” It's nice that even though it's a large accommodation facility, you can use the hot springs for day trips regardless of the time of day. The price is 1300 yen. Comes with one towel. The hot springs are very warm and perfect for a long soak. There are many different types of bathtubs to enjoy, including a sauna, jet bath, open-air bath, steam bath, barrel bath, and cascading bath, and even I, who was from Karasu no Gyosui, was able to enjoy it for an hour. Lockers for shoes and valuables The lockers in the changing room are either free or 100 yen refundable, so you don't need to pay anything other than the bathing fee. It would be nice to enjoy the cafe in the hotel lobby after taking a bath. I definitely want to stay overnight next time.

One of the best service i ever experienced in my life. We were having difficulty trying out the famous yakitori in this town (FYI, you would need to make reservation in advance which we were not aware of), as such we went to check with the receptionist at the front desk at around 11pm on the last night of our stay. The receptionist was very helpful. She tried her best to assist us to call multiple yakitori shops nearby and recommended us the one just opposite our hotel. We placed our order (for take out orders to our hotel) with the yakitori shop that was recommended by the receptionist but unfortunately, we did not collect our order in full as we did not check our orders collected and realized that we missed out on a few items after collecting the orders to our hotel rooms. To our surprise, our order that was not collected was delivered to our doorstep by the receptionist lady. The service experienced was beyond our expectation. We would like to express our greatest appreciation to the staff that assisted us. Thank you very much! どうもありがとうございます。

The hotel is not close to the station and is more suitable for guests driving. The front desk staff is courteous and there is welcome coffee for check-in. For country hotels, the room is not big, but it is very clean. Our room was originally made up can not open the window, and the air is not circulating enough. After reporting to the front desk, he brought an electric fan and a key to the next room, so we decided to turn around. Finally, we decided to turn around the room where we could open the window, and we slept comfortably until dawn.

Room It was a corner room, so it was a very clean room with all the rivers, seas and castles. I think it's a little wider than a normal twin. Large communal bath I went to the large communal bath without using the unit bath in the room. There was a shampoo bar, the bath was spacious, and the hair dryer in the washroom corner was also relaxed. Previously, a name sticker was attached to the slippers to make it a mechanism that would not be mistaken for others, but it has disappeared, so I would be grateful if you could continue. Welcome Lounge The new service had free drinks and sweets (gummy, marshmallows, etc.). I was surprised not only to coffee, tea and soft drinks, but also beer and sparkling wine. I was able to spend a relaxing time at the open venue. Parking is free and there is a convenience store nearby. I will use it again.
