Hotel Karae
9.0 (244 reviews)

Hotel Karae ★★★

📍 1783 Kyomachi, Karatsu

"Room: alright bed and pillow. fairly spacious. lockable box. Bathroom: female dormitory has a shower and two sinks and I think two toilets, which is fine for a dormitory of 8. all clean and working. body wash, shampoo and conditioner, and towels supplied. decent hairdryer. . Security: pin on hotel entrance and dormitory room . Amenities: . Location: really close to the train station but not noisy (or maybe that's just coz it was rainy when I went)."

Karatsu Daiichi Hotel Riviere
8.8 (72 reviews)

Karatsu Daiichi Hotel Riviere ★★★

📍 1-9 Higashimachi, Karatsu

"If you speak English well, it will be very convenient, as there are many English instructions. However, the front desk staff's English is generally not good, and check-in is done via self-service in English. If you mind, you can ask them. The day before, I stayed at the Mercure across the street, but the sea view wasn't as good as this one's river view (including Karatsu Castle view), which is very beautiful. There's also a light show at night, and there's a small public bath on the first floor—so relaxing! Excellent value for money! The room was cozy and had everything you needed. Interestingly, the refrigerator was also self-service (English instructions included). I only stayed one night, so I didn't have to worry about room cleaning. It seems this hotel cleans every three days, and you can leave your trash in the hallway, which is common in many Japanese hotels. There are fast food restaurants nearby, and the JR station is within walking distance. The river is right outside, a great place for a stroll. The hotel information mentions (paid) bicycle rentals, but I didn't inquire about the details. There are many self-service items in the lobby, and there are English signs indicating free coffee in the morning, but I didn't take advantage of it because I checked out early."

Mercure Saga Karatsu Resort
8.7 (250 reviews)

Mercure Saga Karatsu Resort ★★★★

📍 4 Chome-9-20 Higashikaratsu, Karatsu

"Room is spacious and the river view from our room is very nice. However, the toilet is small. The breakfast buffet has a very good spread, and overall quality was good. There are also free drinks and snacks at a spacious lounge for customers at various times of the day. Parking is on the hotel ground and free."

ONCRI-KARATSU
8.8 (46 reviews)

ONCRI-KARATSU ★★★

📍 1669-55 Hamatamamachi Hamasaki, Karatsu

"The ocean view bathtub room was so nice, and the private open-air bath was even better. I couldn't use the large bath because I missed the time check, but that's a shame. The staff were also very kind. However, if your purpose is to tour Karatsu, not just spend a leisurely trip at your accommodation or walking around the town, it's a bit far from the tourist attractions, so please think carefully about your schedule."

Yoyokaku
9.8 (39 reviews)

Yoyokaku ★★★

📍 2 Chome-4-40 Higashikaratsu, Karatsu

"This is my first stay at Ryokan and it was perfect. Personnel' English is not perfect but it's enough. Dinner and breakfast were delicious and healthy and the portions were big; the Ryokan building and its garden were peaceful and beautiful. I'll be happy to visit this place again later!"

Hotel R9 the Yard Karatsu
8.8 (49 reviews)

Hotel R9 the Yard Karatsu ★★★

📍 1535-3 Yamamoto, Karatsu

"This R9 is very clean and well maintained, however the room 25 needs a chair repair, I felt it was going to snap"

Riverside Hotel Karatsu Castle
9.2 (57 reviews)

Riverside Hotel Karatsu Castle ★★

📍 2 Chome-1-5 Higashikaratsu, Karatsu

"The hotel offers free parking, and the Japanese breakfast is delicious. Karatsu Castle is nearby, and you can also visit the former Karatsu Bank site and Karatsu Shrine. The rooms are lakeside with beautiful views, making it a worthwhile stay."

Tabiyado Yobuko
9.0 (7 reviews)

Tabiyado Yobuko ★★★

📍 1953-2 Yobukochō Tononoura, Karatsu

"Staying in a hot spring hotel with two meals, there is a language barrier, but the waiters are very kind and sincere and keep smiling. The dinner is squid sashimi and tempura, which are very delicious and there are a lot of them. The breakfast is Japanese style, both are very good. eat. Worth recommending."

Karatsu Seaside Hotel
9.4 (99 reviews)

Karatsu Seaside Hotel ★★★★

📍 4 Chome-182 Higashikaratsu, Karatsu

"The sea view was beautiful. The food quality was high 😋. I could see the sun rising from behind the small mountains. It's a shame I stayed in the west wing; I could only have breakfast in the east wing and couldn't use the east wing's hot springs and other facilities (which seemed newer and nicer)."

Hotel Karae ★★★
"It's not far from the train station. It's on a shopping street and the building complex has multiple entrances, so it takes a little time to figure out the direction. You need to get into the elevator and go upstairs to get to the lobby and rooms. The interior of the whole building complex is pretty cool, and I think it's a new project. There is a cafe and a souvenir shop on the ground floor. And a cinema, it seems. I think it's a good choice for travelers visiting Karatsu."

Mercure Saga Karatsu Resort ★★★★
"The hotel is just a few minutes' walk from the long stretched beach and beautiful pine forest and features a spacious onsen area. The varied breakfast is served in the restaurant with a fantastic panoramic view. Complimentary drinks and snacks are also available in the hotel lounge. The room itself had a beautiful sea view. Unfortunately, the rooms are a bit dated, but the hotel's overall good service makes up for this."

"This was my family's second visit after 6 years ago, and it was just as good. In particular, the free 45-minute use of the outdoor hot spring with a sea view was the best in terms of satisfaction and healing."

Riverside Hotel Karatsu Castle ★★
"The location is right next to the river, making it truly worth the name. The view from the room window is breathtaking, morning, noon, and evening. Karatsu Castle is just across the bridge, and a 20-minute walk takes you to the beach and Nijino Matsubara, where you'll find Karatsu Burger. There's also a supermarket about a 15-minute walk away. The staff are friendly."
