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.

Every summer vacation, we stay at this seaside Hotel. The Rooms in the East Wing and the amenities are truly wonderful, and we always look forward to them. One small disappointment was that last year there was a bottle of water by the sink in the bathroom, but this time it wasn’t provided. Also, the staff’s service was excellent. In the morning, when my child and I were swimming in the sea, I’m not sure if it was a staff member or a volunteer, but someone was carefully picking up litter on the beach. It was wonderful. Thanks to that, there wasn’t any trash at all on the beach in front of the Hotel, and we could swim comfortably. We’ll be back again next year. We hope it will be even more upgraded—haha.

The Room had a great view, and the large public bath was very relaxing. Also, being able to use the rental bicycles was helpful, as it allowed us to visit places that are difficult to reach on foot.

Four of us—female friends for 50 years—stayed here together. The front desk staff were very pleasant, and in the lounge we enjoyed a variety of drinks and snacks both before and after dinner. Both dinner and breakfast offered a wide selection, including made-to-order hamburgers right in front of us, beef shabu-yakiniku, sashimi, and more—everything was excellent. All-you-can-drink beer and many other beverages really surprised us. It didn’t seem like there was all-you-can-drink sake, though. The meals were enjoyable for both adults and children. The baths were spacious, clean, and comfortable. We were also happy to have ReFa showerheads and hair dryers. This is a Hotel we would love to stay at again. Thank you very much.

It was pleasant to take walks at this Hotel by the sea, and many of the staff were kind, so we had a very comfortable stay. Above all, the food was excellent. The seafood from the Genkai Sea and the sushi were all delicious.　However, the bath in our Room was fully visible from the beach and the road, which made it difficult to use. I feel blinds would have been more practical than curtains for both the window and the partition between the Room and the bath.

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.
