Hotel Koyokaku

酒店距離嬉野温泉站路程二十分鐘，如果坐巴士附近站落車行去酒店8分鐘左右，酒店裝修好靚，大堂有飲品和零食，温泉湯有雪條食，附近有肥前忍者村和丰玉姬神社，不過食店不多，酒店只供應本地人一泊兩食，交通方面要留意一点去嬉野温泉疏一点。

한국어가 가능한 직원은 없었지만, 번역기 사용하면서 소통해주시고 여러모로 친절하셨습니다! 나중에 또 갈 것 같아요 ㅎㅎ

굉장히 좋았습니다. 일단 송영 서비스가 있는 게 너무 좋았어요. 숙박하는 날 나가사키에 갔다 왔는데 우레시노온천 역까지 태워다주시고 다시 태우러 와주셨고, 숙박 다음날 하카타로 넘어갔는데 버스 터미널(우레시노IC 버스센터)까지 또 태워다주셨어요. 프론트에서 신칸센 시간이라든가 이것저것 필요한 정보들도 자세히 알려주셨습니다. 직원분들 엄청 친절하십니다. 웰컴 디저트로 초코랑 딸기를 이용한 간단한 간식을 시원한 상자에 담아서 주시는데, 상자 뚜껑에 제 이름이 초콜릿으로 써져있더라구요. 생일도 아닌데 생일 서비스를 받은 것처럼 기분 좋았습니다. 다다미 방이었고 저녁식사는 방에서 먹는 카이세키 요리에 사가규 스키야키가 메인이었는데, 다른 요리도 맛있었고 고기도 질이 상당히 좋으면서도 느끼하지 않아서 정말 맛있게 잘 먹었습니다. 아침식사는 2층에서 준비된 정식을 먹는데 이것도 맛있었어요. 특히 온천두부가 일품입니다. 로비에 간단한 스낵바 있는데 과자 맛있어요. 밤 시간대에는 맥주랑 하이볼까지 무료로 즐길 수 있어요. 꼭대기층에 실내탕 및 노천탕 있고 온천 물 좋습니다. 전날 다른 료칸에서도 묵었었는데, 거기에 비해 훨씬 물이 미끌거리는게 좋은 온천물 그대로 썼다는게 느껴지더라구요. 온천장 옆에 아이스크림 있는데 이거 상당히 맛있습니다. 체크인 전/체크아웃 후 짐 맡길 수 있습니다. 제가 갔을 땐 우레시노온천 역에 신칸센이 개통된 1주년 기념으로 쌀을 체크아웃할 때 선물로 주시더라구요. 사가 지방이 사가규뿐만 아니라 쌀이 맛있기로도 유명해서 감사했습니다. 여러모로 너무나 만족한 숙박이었어요. 또 갈게요.

The water quality of Ureshino Onsen is very unique and cannot be found in the other area. I touched my arms and legs in the bath and felt very smooth and soapy but the feeling disappeared once I went out of the bath. It means the water quality caused it. People working at the hotel are friendly and welcoming. Near the lobby you can have beer,wine ,soft drinks,tea with some crackers, peanuts etc free of charge(of course the offering time is restricted so you might not need extra alcohol during the dinner. The town is small so you can walk around to enjoy the a**osphere. So far I liked Hijiori in Iwate and Nozawa in Nagano among many many hot springs in Japan and Ureshino joined in my likings. I thank again for the reception people always smiling and informative!

We stayed at this ryokan to start our tour of Saga Prefecture in early November 2021. It was a Sunday, which traditionally is the best day of the week to stay as many have to work from Monday. Perhaps it was due to the increase of those working remotely from home, but the ryokan was almost full judging from the crowded parking space. Registration was quick and we were momentarily shown to our room facing the river flowing below and the hills on the back. We were warmly welcomed by the lady staff that accompanied us to the room and brought our welcome snack. It appeared all the ryokan staff were happy with the return of travelers, where a couple of weeks back they may have been more concerned of the pandemic. I had a quick bath in their onsen bath on the top floor before dinner. Dinner was served in our room, which has become customary since the rise of this pandemic. We had ordered their speciality, sukiyaki of Saga beef. This was composed of some excellent local specialties as appetizers and the main beef sukiyaki. Our server asked if we needed help with the sukiyaki which you need to cook for yourselves, to which we said yes. She put the vegetables and then meat into the pot, and advised that we could have the meat as soon as it turned color. She left the room, asking us to call her again for the rice and miso soup as well as dessert, once we were done with the main course. It was an excellent sukiyaki, not too much sweet. But there was so much beef, that we had very little room left for the rice, or the udon noodles you stew in the pot at the end. The facilities were clean, and the staff all very friendly. We had a most enjoyable stay.

建物は古いですがお部屋の衛生面は気にならないくらい清掃されておりました。 ウェルカムスウィーツに始まり、豪華で食べきれないほどの食事、泉質が良い温泉、お風呂前のデトックスウォーターなどあったら嬉しいサービスが行き届いていました。お宿のスタッフの方も親切に道を教えてくれたり、冗談を言ってくれたり気さくで楽しかったです。 １点だけ、早朝1番に大浴場に入りましたが、洗い場のゴミなどがちょっと気になりました。 こちらに関しては掃除のタイミングや利用客のモラルもあると思いますので難しいと思いますが。
