Immerse yourself in the historical architectural beauty at a traditional Ryokan in Saga and Karatsu.

A traditional Japanese-style Ryokan preserving the charm of the Meiji and Taisho eras. Enjoy a relaxing stay and delightful meals with us.

  • It was my first visit to a wooden Ryokan in quite some time. The nostalgic, comforting creak of the floors with every step was wonderful. These days, even a single pane of glass feels truly precious. Dinner was served in our Room, one dish at a time; every carefully prepared course was delicious and very satisfying. Even the seaweed tsukudani at breakfast was exceptional, and I ordered the dried fish as soon as I got home. It became a memorable family trip for us.

  • I visited again after three years to enjoy the full tiger puffer course. It is delicious every time, and I never get tired of it. The hassun, soup dish, and takikomi rice were also excellent, and I ended up drinking quite a lot again. Of course, the ara course and other courses are also very tasty, but I still think Yoyokaku’s tiger puffer course is the best. The staff and everyone at the Accommodation were very pleasant, and the building and garden felt spacious and relaxing, so I was able to unwind once again. Thank you for upgrading us to a wonderful Room.

From Fukuoka Airport or JR Hakata Station, please take the subway (2-3 trains per hour) and transfer at Chikuzen-Maebaru. There is also one direct train per hour (JR Chikuhi Line).
(Taking the route from Fukuoka to Saga and then to Karatsu via the Karatsu Line is a detour. The subway route via the Chikuhi Line is faster, though it requires an additional subway fare of about 300 yen.)
If coming from the Hakata area, get off at Higashi-Karatsu Station. It’s a 4-minute taxi ride. If coming from Saga or Imari, get off at Karatsu Station, and it’s a 6-minute taxi ride.

If you are driving from Fukuoka Airport or the Hakata area, the Urban Expressway, Fukuoka-Maebaru Road, and Nijohamatama Bypass connect directly to Karatsu. There is no longer a need to detour through Taku.
A 160-yen bus is also available. From the north exit of Karatsu Station, take the East Route bus, get off at Higashi-Karatsu 2-chome in 11 minutes, and walk 3 minutes.

To reach Yoyokaku, head north from the Higashi-Karatsu 2-chome traffic signal, go 50 meters, and turn left at the tobacco shop. Parking is available in three locations: west of the entrance, across the street, and to the east.
It’s a 5-minute walk to Karatsu Castle, a 2-minute walk to Higashi-no-Hama Beach, and a 10-minute walk to Niji-no-Matsubara.
