Mifuneyama Rakuen Hotel

For my first trip to Saga, I stayed at this accommodation that I had been curious about for a long time. This time, I chose a room with an open-air bath that I couldn't stop thinking about. The bath was spacious, and the changing scenery and temperature throughout the day made it absolutely perfect! Since I'm not interested in saunas at all, I spent most of my time soaking in the room's bath. The staff were kind, and although I didn't have high expectations for TeamLab, it was impressive how they repurposed unused areas of the accommodation for collaboration. Of course, TeamLab itself was wonderful too. The food was delicious; however, if there's one thing to mention—it might be that the dining area felt either too bright or perhaps the tables were placed too close together... It gave off a slightly restless vibe or lacked a sense of calmness compared to other spaces in the accommodation. It almost felt like stepping into a completely different place with more of a cafeteria-like atmosphere—not disappointing but noticeably different from elsewhere in this lovely accommodation. Still, it's definitely an accommodation I'd love to visit again! Thank you so much to all the staff!

The Onsen and meals were very satisfying, and overall it was a good stay. The sauna in particular was very relaxing, and the meal portions were just right and delicious.However, it was disappointing that the female staff member who assisted us at check-in came across as somewhat overbearing. Because the first impression wasn’t great, it affected the rest of our stay a little.Also, regarding dinner time: at check-in we were only offered 17:30, 17:45, or 18:00, so we chose 18:00. But later guests seemed to have options up to 19:30. There was no explanation as to why our choices were limited, which left us confused.The Facility itself was excellent, so if the service and guidance improve, I think overall satisfaction would be even higher.
