This was not just a clean Accommodation, but a place that felt like a “second home,” filled with warmth and thoughtfulness. In every corner of the Room, we could feel the host’s care and affection, and throughout our stay we felt comfortable and genuinely welcomed. The meals were also truly outstanding. Each dish was prepared with great care and sincerity—delicious, and an unforgettable taste. We had a truly wonderful time and are sincerely grateful. We would love to visit again.

Last time, I was moved by the beautiful sunset I could see during dinner, and I also wanted to eat Yobuko squid again, so whenever I go to Yobuko, I choose to stay at this Hotel. Unfortunately, due to the weather, we couldn’t see the sunset this time. We also weren’t able to

After check-in, we relaxed in the lounge with our favorite drinks. Dinner was a buffet and exceeded our expectations. There wasn’t an overwhelming number of options, but everything—from seafood and meat to desserts—was delicious, and we enjoyed it with our preferred drinks and the view. Since our child’s birthday coincided with the trip, we also ordered a birthday cake; the staff were very thoughtful, and we were extremely satisfied. Our child carefully carried home the flowers received as a gift without damaging them. Thank you very much. The only disappointment was that there happened to be a large group of children staying at the same time, and some guests did not follow proper manners even though this is a Hotel. One group was shouting in the lobby, running around, fooling around in the elevator, and essentially taking over the table tennis area. Another group left a good impression—the supervisor instructed them not to use the elevator unnecessarily and they greeted others properly. It’s difficult because it’s more about supervision than the children themselves, but I wish the Hotel had addressed it more firmly. They were being too disruptive and it made us uncomfortable, so I informed the front desk; however, during an enjoyable trip I would have preferred not to have to say anything.

My family stayed in the Premium Ocean View Room. The renovated Room was very comfortable, and the bench seating by the window was especially convenient. The live squid we were looking forward to was served as frozen squid due to the weather, but it was still delicious and we were fully satisfied and stuffed. It was a shame that the water in the large public bath was lukewarm, but overall our satisfaction level was high. The location is not easy to reach by public transportation, but if you transfer buses well you can get right to the front of the Ryokan (on the way back, we walked to Yobuko Port).

Stayed at Karatsu Kimura Chaya to try squid The squid was very fresh and delicious. The simmered fish head, abalone, and sea bream chazuke for breakfast were all excellent. The view from the window was wonderful, and seeing Karatsu Castle while having breakfast—along with the cherry blossoms in full bloom—made it an unforgettable trip to Karatsu.

I chose this place to fully enjoy the JIN6 sauna. The Room was spacious and comfortable, with a calm atmosphere reminiscent of a traditional storehouse. The view of the inlet from the Room was wonderful, and I stretched out on the daybed-like sofa by the window and enjoyed the long twilight. Since there is no dining option at this Accommodation, I made a dinner Reservation at a nearby Accommodation and enjoyed squid dishes, then had a seafood rice bowl at a local diner for breakfast. The sauna is available to guests for 1,000 yen anytime until 1:00 p.m. the next day, and because it’s such an enjoyable sauna, I was really glad I could use it many times. Now that I know it’s easier than expected to get here from Fukuoka Airport by bus or train, I’d love to visit again in another season.
