Homestays in Saga Prefecture, Japan

This place is about a 5 to 10-minute walk from Takeo Onsen Station. As other reviews mentioned, it's quite old. The air conditioning, in particular, could use some attention. Although it's a ryokan, it seems to operate with a small staff. Breakfast is simple; it's a bit disappointing that there's no meat, but it genuinely offers a light morning meal. Unfortunately, the hot spring water is a circulated, heated, and disinfected type. Nevertheless, how should I put it... it feels like a place that put a lot of effort into it despite a small budget. The staff are very friendly, and the facilities on the first floor are interesting.

Ureshino Onsen ♨️ They say your skin feels amazing after a soak, and it truly lives up to its reputation! I'd definitely come back again. This onsen hotel included breakfast and dinner with the booking. We stayed in a two-story villa, which is a bit further from the main building, about a few minutes' walk. If you don't feel like walking, the hotel offers a shuttle service, so the service is excellent. Check-in was naturally quick. The main building has an outdoor bath and various other baths, but since they're not that big, it can be hard to get a spot at night. Our villa had a private onsen, so we could take our time soaking in the room. The kaiseki meals for both breakfast and dinner were also quite good. I'd recommend booking it – we really enjoyed it!

The hotel is incredibly close to the train station, making the location super convenient. There are also lots of restaurants nearby, plus all sorts of little shops right inside the station, which is really nice.

This hotel is the same group as Yoshida House on the previous street. I stayed at Yoshida House Hot Spring Hotel the night before. The second night I stayed at this soup hotel. There was no staff in this soup hotel. It was fully self-service. I encountered difficulties when I checked in. I couldn't enter the hotel and needed to ring the doorbell. Contact the staff of Yoshida House and communicate in general English. After he opened me to the hotel from a distance, I couldn't check-in procedures by myself due to the name problem. I needed to wait for the staff to come over to help. Because the distance from Yoshida House is very close, the staff will come to help in a few minutes. Even if you encounter some difficulties when you check in, the experience in this hotel is good, the room is large, the hotel has free parking, the hot spring water output is slightly slower than Yoshida House, breakfast is to fall downstairs to get a box of sandwiches and a can of drinks, If you want to soak in the private hot springs in the room at a cheap price, you can live in this room, but don't want staff to serve you

Overall, I had a very pleasant experience at this hotel. It is a large hotel and the price was reasonable for the quality of the stay. The highlight for me was the cleanliness. The hotel also boasts a fantastic amenity: a rooftop onsen (hot spring). It was incredibly relaxing and offered a great way to unwind after a long day of travel. The main downside, however, was the dining options. While convenient, both the breakfast and dinner buffets were quite expensive. There are probably more affordable local options nearby if you are looking to save on meals.

At first I thought the room was small But the actual live view is very large Definitely enough for 3 people to sleep Also the skin is very smooth after soaking in hot spring water Skate over skateboards! Will consider staying again next time! No complaints

A very good family-friendly hotel in Nice with a great location! Dinner and breakfast were fabulous, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thank you!

Check-in was simple. Bicycle rental was 500 yen per day. The building is right next to the main road, with cars passing by all night, so the soundproofing is terrible. The room and kitchen are separated by a curtain, making it very noisy—noise from all sorts of sources. However, the hostel atmosphere was nice, and they provided free earplugs. Everything else, like towels, cost extra, and the towels actually had a distinctly sour smell, which was disgusting. This was the first time I'd stayed in such a poorly hygienic place in Japan. Towels cost 100 yen, and a small cup of cola costs 300 yen. I recommend bringing your own towels.

It was a very clean, bright and quiet inn. I was able to relax in a simple room. It's conveniently close to Kamiarita Station, and is a great place for touring Arita ware. However, please note that there are no convenience stores or places to eat within walking distance of Kamiarita. I arrived in the evening, so I brought plenty of stock with me, including bento boxes, drinks, and bread for breakfast. There is a small refrigerator in the room, and a shared kitchen and microwave, so you can make simple meals yourself. If you're planning on touring the pottery studios, renting a bicycle or car is a must.

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.
