Hotels near Shinchi Chinatown, Nagasaki

The location is fantastic, you can see the hotel right when you exit Nagasaki Station. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the staff are very enthusiastic. The hotel's security control design is great; your room card only grants access to your own floor. There's a shopping mall right next door. The night view from the hotel is also amazing.

Staying at Hotel Indigo Nagasaki Glover Street was a highlight of our trip to Nagasaki. The hotel is beautifully designed with a distinct British colonial character that fits perfectly into the historic Glover Garden neighbourhood — stepping outside, you’re just moments from Oura Cathedral and some of Nagasaki’s most iconic sights. The rooms are immaculate, stylishly appointed, and the bathrobes were a lovely touch after a day of sightseeing. Breakfast at Restaurant Cathedréclat — set inside what feels like a converted chapel — was a real experience in itself, with a tasty Japanese option that was genuinely delicious. The staff deserve a special mention: attentive, professional, and genuinely warm. Service was flawless from check-in to check-out. The only minor thing I’d flag — and it really is minor — is that the pillows are on the thin and soft side, which might not suit everyone who prefers a bit more support. A firmer pillow option would make this hotel absolutely perfect.

The most comfortable hotel of our Japan trip so far. The beddings are so comfortable we had the best sleep here. The rooms are well thought out and designed. Lots of surface to put things, lots of hanging area for towels and clothes, something most hotel overlook. Will definitely recommend.

First off, the location is excellent, right near Chinatown, which made getting around super convenient – no complaints there. As for the downsides, there are mainly two: 1. Poor soundproofing: At night, someone's snoring sounded like it was right next to my ear. Even earplugs couldn't block it out; it was just too loud. 2. Bad light-blocking: The lights from the hallway made the sleeping pod really bright, so I had to wear an eye mask. Both of these issues really impacted my stay, and I honestly didn't get good rest during the two days I was there.

Location is conveniently close to train station and tram. Having a cosy apartment of 2 bedrooms with kitchen and everything else that you'd have at home is great. The downside is that the building has 10+ levels but only has one small elevator. Hallway to the units is quite narrow too, which is a struggle for a big group with luggages. The reception is in a different building, which makes it hard to not be uncomfortably stared at when taking amenities during the stay, as the staffs couldn't tell if we were just guests or random people wanting freebies. The air conditioning unit in one of the rooms we booked was leaking water, which I flagged with the reception straight away because I didn't want them to blame me for it after checking out. Staffs didn't offer any help/assistance, they just asked if it's fine for us to continue keeping a towel underneath and if we needed more towels.

This hostel has some genuinely strong points, but also several issues that stop it from being a great stay. It’s very much a mix of highs and lows. The positives: The common room is comfortable, with very good sofas and fast Wi-Fi (though it occasionally drops out — a router upgrade would easily fix this). There’s a shared kitchen with a labelled fridge, and the location is excellent for exploring Nagasaki. Dorm rooms are good value for the price. Bed spaces are a decent size, with excellent blackout curtains that block light even if others leave the lights on. You also get a small lockbox for valuables. The negatives: Check-in is fully self-service with no reception. You’re given a folder with rules and keys, but if you need help, there’s no clear support — which can be stressful, especially for travellers without phone SIMs. There is no lift. I stayed on the fourth floor, and the narrow stairs make carrying luggage difficult. Facilities per floor are also limited: only one toilet and one shower shared between multiple dorms, plus the washer and dryer on the same floor, which feels insufficient and awkward. Extras are all paid separately (towels, toothbrushes, earplugs, etc.). A towel really should be included at this price. Guests are also expected to strip their own bedsheets at checkout, which feels excessive. The common room layout could be improved. A large hammock takes up space and reduces seating — replacing it with chairs or bar seating would make the area far more usable. There were also staff or long-term workers frequently occupying the common room, which made the space feel less guest-focused. Air conditioning is locked and cannot be adjusted, so if you’re too hot or cold, you have no control. Would I stay again? As a backpacker on a very tight budget, yes — tahe location and price make it workable. But if you can afford it, I’d recommend paying more for a private room nearby. There are many hotels in the area offering much better comfort and support.

This 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.

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!

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).

This hotel is cost-effective and the location is okay. It takes about 5 minutes to walk to the station. It is uphill to walk to the hotel. It is a bit tiring to push the big box. It is hygienic. Although it is a small hotel, it is very hygienic. The breakfast is okay and you can eat enough. , the waiter is very serious and the service is good. Worth recommending
