Hotéis em Arao

I came to Kyushu at the end of the year and the beginning of the year and looked for a hotel near Fukuoka Tenjin to go to Dazaifu on New Year's Day, but I was here because it was expensive and Yanagawa was cheaper than Tenjin, and the train flight was good. １ night ８３００ yen was cheaper than the center of Fukuoka, and it was convenient for sightseeing within １ hours by train for the distance to go to Dazaifu the next day. It is a few minutes walk from the station to the hotel (the opposite direction to the shuttle bus stop down the boat). The room was also very good for the price.

Yanagawa is a peaceful and beautiful water town. This is an old-style hot spring hotel with older but clean facilities. Rich breakfast and attentive service. The hotel gives away a coupon of 1,000 yen per person, which can be used to participate in the river cruise activities organized by the hotel. Great!

With a stay at Ohana in Yanagawa, you'll be within a 15-minute walk of Former Toshima House and Yanagawa City Hall. This guesthouse is 0.8 mi (1.2 km) from Hakushu Memorial Museum and 0.8 mi (1.3 km) from Tsubakiya.Take in the views from a terrace and a garden and make use of amenities such as complimentary wireless internet access.

We came to Yanagawa to see and ride on the old canals and stayed at this authentic Japanese hotel for a night . Nice place right beside the canal where you can see the boats going by. There were three of us so we had a big room, one part Western with two single beds the other part was a Japanese tatami mat room where the staff made up a bed on the floor while we were at dinner. Booking in was easy and staff super polite which is the normal in Japan. Before dinner we went to the hot springs bath and relaxed in the lovely hot waters. We had booked in for dinner 6.30 pm. in the main dining room , we went in the Yukata’s that the hotel provided, very relaxing. Dinner was a set menu, typical Japanese food, about ten little bowls containing different items, miso soup, different Sashimi’s, chicken , pickles , eel, which this area is famous for and another lovely small fried fish, plenty to fill you up and for sweets a huge piece of water melon. The room did have a bath and shower but didn’t use them as we used the hot spring baths, there was free wifi, a safe and good TV. Slept well. First thing in the morning we went to the outside hot bath before going and enjoying a smorgasbord breakfast. In the Rockpool baths they supply all you need , body soap , shampoo, conditioner, hairdryers etc, always a nice experience. Typical Japanese breakfast , no cereals but plenty to choose from. We had trout and puffer fish, plenty of veggies, the scrambled egg was scrumptious. Plenty of fruit, mango , orange and delicious pineapple. While we went of doing a boat ride on the canals the hotel held our luggage for us, very handy. The hotel also has a good gift shop. We enjoyed our stay, gives you a real Japanese hotel experience.

We stayed at the Ohana for three nights in a Western room. The hotel also has Japanese style rooms. The room was large, clean and had a great view over the garden. The lack of cupboards or shelves meant we had to put our clothes on the floor. Japanese hotels often have limited storing space for clothes, but the Ohana took it a bit further. Wlan was fast and free.The staff is polite, very friendly and helpful. Parking is free and the staff reserves spots for the guests. A set Japanese breakfast at 7.30 or 8.00, no other options. The Japanese breakfast was extensive and of excellent quality, the western breakfast we got served the second day was also very good. The hotel has a two person public bath and free transport and entrance to a much larger onsen with extensive facilities. Hard to compare this hotel with a regular hotel because of its specific character. I would certainly recommend staying here.

島原の中でも最上級のひと時を過ごせるホテル。部屋の広さは申し分なく、ホテル全体が清潔に保たれていて快適だ。特に本館は有明海に面しているため素晴らしい朝焼けのオーシャンビューを堪能することが出来る。西には大きな災害をもたらした雲仙普賢岳があるものの、火山の恩恵の一つである温泉も楽しむことが出来る。島原港へのアクセスもよく、フェリーで大牟田や熊本へ足を運ぶことも出来る。 しかし、ホテル周辺はレストランがほとんどなく（あってもホテルから離れているところが多い）、ホテルにレストランが併設されているが連日のように混雑している。食事処に苦労するだろう。ポータブルWi-Fiを所持している場合、館内では非常に繋がりにくいか全く繋がらない（外に出れば繋がる）。ホテルにも無料で利用できるWi-Fiサービスがあるが宿泊者共用であるため、ネット環境に四苦八苦するかもしれない。特に食事は重要であるため、事前に空き時間等を確認しておくとよい。またホテルの収容人数に比例して温泉もそれほど広くない。特に温泉のサービスが終了する22時～23時は混雑するので、その時間の利用は避けることをお勧めする。 It is one of the best hotels in Shimabara. Despite the cleanliness of the entire hotel and the size of the rooms are impeccable, the price is reasonable. All of the rooms in the main building of the hotel face the Ariake Sea, so you can enjoy the wonderful sunrise sea view. The hotel's main building and new building have shared Onsen. You can enjoy various types of Onsen. However, there are few restaurants around the hotel. Even if they are, they are far from the hotel or in places that are difficult for first-time visitors. Under such circumstances, the restaurant attached to the hotel is always crowded. If you use the restaurant, you should check the available times without waiting. If you have a portable Wi-Fi router, you will have to worry that it is hard to use or not available at all in the building. Although there is free Wi-Fi service at this hotel, it cannot be guaranteed the speed and security of communication because it is shared by guests. Onsen is not so large compared to the number of people who can stay. In particular, it will be very crowded from 22:00 to 23:00 just before Onsen service ends. If you use it, you should avoid that time.
