A relaxed Ryokan style establishment with excellent views of the lake and from room 6 the Castle. Quiet and a little distant from the main hotel areas but with the local bus stopping directly at the door. Ebikes and bicycles for hire and only a short walk to the Japanese black pine forest and beach . A pleasant change to business hotels in the city. A very pleasant stay.

Beautiful Views, Great Staff, Easy Walk to Castle
Posted 12 Nov 2023 on HotelsThis hotel is perfectly situated next to the river and an easy walk to Karatsu Castle. I could see the Castle from the wide breakfast room windows and enjoy the river view from my wide bedroom windows. The traffic noise did not bother me even though I am sensitive to noise. And the hotel staff members were extremely helpful and accommodating.
The sleeping futons were very comfy when laid out on the tatami mats. The room was very spacious and many times the size of a regular businessman's single room. And there was a Japanese low table and legless chair with seat cushion for those who can use that arrangement as well as a room-wide wood table and bench, which I used for my computer messaging while enjoying the river view.
I would return to the hotel again most definitely!

This was our favorite hotel on this trip.
It has the most amazing view of the castle.
You can walk to the castle a short distance or take photos from the hotel.
The view from the bedroom is the river view. i enjoy very much
The staff are lovely and happy to help. The welcome drink is a great whiskey and beer.
It is recommended to book breakfast as you can have breakfast with a view of Karatsu Castle.
I'm happy to stayed here.

Very nice!
Posted 26 Mar 2018 on HotelsIt was really good. The staff were friendly and the room was amazing. If you are a Yuri On Ice fan, there’s a lot of goods exposed.
