"I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel, especially if your budget allows for it!
The room windows offer direct views of the moat, and the hotel is incredibly close to attractions like the hot air balloon festival grounds and shrines.
**Transportation:** From Saga Station, you can take the Showa Bus (towards Karatsu) directly to the hotel. Alternatively, the most convenient option is to simply take a taxi.
**Service:** I absolutely have to commend the hotel's front desk staff! They were an enormous help! Due to heavy rains in the Kyushu region, I found myself stranded in Saga and had difficulty getting around. I wanted to arrange for my luggage to be sent directly to my next hotel in Fukuoka. A lady wearing glasses at the front desk was exceptionally helpful in assisting me with filling out the Takkyubin (luggage delivery service) forms. Even though the courier company ultimately couldn't guarantee delivery to my next hotel before my departure due to the heavy rain, the hotel staff's assistance was invaluable and greatly appreciated!
**Dining:** When it's too hot in summer, taking a break at the hotel's first-floor cafe, sipping coffee and enjoying the views, is a fantastic way to relax. (The Baumkuchen is delicious!)"
"The hotel is literally 100m from Saga JR station. We make it as a midway stop to Huis The Bosch. This little city has the best beef and a fantastic onsen to offer.
Onsen is 20mins away by foot. On the way, there is one big Japanese drugstore to fill your suitcase!"
"If you are just staying in Saga for one night, you can still consider it. I really don't recommend other hotels because the bed is very small and the bathroom is really average. You don't even want to take a shower. Of course, if you have the courage, you can try the hot spring bath on the ground floor. You can get toiletries in the lobby and there is also free Costa coffee. So you can't ask for too much for this price. It is a certain distance from the airport on foot, but it is within an acceptable range. Across the main road outside the hotel (next to the airport bus station) there is a supermarket that is larger than 711 and opens until 12 o'clock in the evening, which is convenient for guests who want to buy things when they return late, but it is not duty-free."
"The location of the B&B is good, it's very close to JR station and airport bus, only a few minutes away. The check-in procedure is not very convenient because it is a self-service unmanaged B&B, which is a weakness for people who are not good at foreign languages and computers. The air conditioner in the room smelled bad when it was turned on, but the weather was not hot, so I closed it immediately and opened the window. Everything else was fine. The room was large and the bathroom facilities were good."
"There is a direct bus from Saga Airport to Saga Station. The hotel is opposite the station, and the transportation is very convenient. There are many restaurants and convenience stores near the hotel. The hotel provides free breakfast, which is relatively simple. There is an artificial hot spring on the ground floor. It is very comfortable to take a bath when you come back at night. The single room is relatively small, but it is still good for one person to live in, mainly because the cost performance is relatively high. The room facilities are relatively simple and old-fashioned, and should be a certain age."
"The hotel is in a great location, right next to Saga Station, with convenient transportation, and it's very convenient to take the airport bus and JR. The room I was given on the third floor had an air conditioner from the opposite building outside the window, which was a bit noisy, and there was no sunlight, but I was only staying for one night because I had a transfer, so I could handle it. The windows of the even-numbered rooms on the lower floors may all be like this, so friends who are going to stay there can avoid the even-numbered rooms on the lower floors. The hotel also offers rice, bread, curry, salad, cooked vegetables, and natto for breakfast, which is enough to fill you up."
"Hotel location is slightly biased, but definitely does not affect the experience. I really like the hot spring pool here, there are many indoor and outdoor temperatures, this time I booked three days and rooms nearly a month in advance. The hotel has good sanitary conditions, bath towels and bathrobes are replaced in time every day, and breakfast is relatively simple. There is a free shuttle bus at the Saga station entrance, and a temporary parking spot next to the Comfort Hotel. See the picture for the specific time to facilitate travel. ."
"The Garden Terrace Saga Hotel & Resort is located in a stunning natural environment and features comfortable rooms and stunning garden views. Guests can enjoy a variety of leisure facilities, including hot springs, swimming pools and fitness centers, as well as exquisite restaurants serving local cuisine, allowing you to spend a leisurely time here."
"At first, I thought it was a ryokan with a hot spring, but upon closer inspection, I found out that it wasn't.^^
This is a Japanese-style business hotel with many banquet halls.
The room conditions were similar to those of a typical business hotel, and above all, the breakfast was Japanese style, so I was personally satisfied.
When you enter the breakfast restaurant, you will be guided to the breakfast table and shown to the prepared table. You will be asked for drinks, etc., and main dishes such as hot rice and soup will be prepared for you. The breakfast restaurant staff kindly guided me, so I enjoyed my meal comfortably."
"The villa is very comfortable, of course the price is not cheap. You get what you pay for! But it’s too far from the check in place. If it’s not for our super-accommodating sports enthusiasts, it’s probably going to give up... The front desk service is okay, it’s too far away, I feel two or three kilometers, with heavy luggage, and the sun is like a fire. You can imagine the feelings of the wife and children at home... The map icon is not very clear and the navigation is not easy to use. It is recommended that the front desk help enter the destination and then take it with the navigation. Otherwise, it will be a big thing if you lose it."
Pping19770In early May 2025, I played in Kitakyushu for 9 days. I chose to live in Saga for two nights. I ordered one berth and two meals. I was still very impressed with this hotel. Don’t expect too much from the hotel room. It must be a homestay. What surprised me was the hotel’s dinner. The two nights were different. Because we can't speak the language, 8 times Japan is free, and we have not eaten authentic Japanese cuisine. This time we experienced it. Especially beef, the first day to eat roast steak, the second day to eat suxi pot, my husband is always not so caring about the food, his beef is full of praise, said several times too delicious, his homemade plum wine is also very good. The hotel staff service is very good, the boss will order Chinese, the boss's mother is very elegant, when we left, we also took pictures with the boss's mother. The hotel's hot springs are not big. On the first night, the staff helped us make an appointment. The hot springs I soaked with my husband were really an unforgettable experience. By the way, Saga's beef is better and better than Kobe's.
JJianluolanA Japanese hot spring resort hotel of the usual style. Quiet. There is a forest opposite the room. The room is large and spacious. However, the quilt of the tatami is always easy to fall off. There is a little mark on the quilt. After the epidemic, I always feel that the overall service quality has declined. When we left the hotel to pick up the car, we carried the luggage by ourselves. When we checked in, the staff helped to carry the luggage. Overall, the cost performance is not the best.
QqqdaughterThe location is on the hillside, and the bus station is a bit hard to walk up with luggage. The outdoor hot spring has been remodeled, and the male guests have no outdoor hot springs. The service is very good and the environment is very good.
AAnonymous UserAfter getting off the train at Saga Station, I found it even more desolate than expected. It is indeed the place that ranks first in the list of the least attractive prefectures for many years. I walked a few hundred meters in the wind and rain to reach the Hagakure B&B. The appearance is no different from that of ordinary residential single-family houses. It is a relatively large villa.
After entering the door, I found that the lighting and atmosphere are quite warm. There is only a young lady at the front desk. You need to scan the code, fill in the information, take a photo of your passport, and finally see the entry and exit password and get the room key.
I booked a four-person female dormitory. The ventilation is probably not very good. One of the people living with me may have lived there for several days. I don’t know if it is Chinese medicine or something. The smell fills the room and can’t be dispersed. Fortunately, the store is very considerate to set up a small portable fan at the head of the bed. At night, the fan is always turned on to speed up ventilation.
There was another small incident. Because it rained that day, we left our wet umbrellas at the entrance area to dry. We didn’t expect to find out the next morning that the area was locked from the evening until the next day when new check-ins were received. Therefore, when we left the next morning, another customer and I couldn’t go to the bar area to get our umbrellas. Fortunately, after contacting the store, we got their understanding and they promised to send our umbrellas to our homes. Although I haven’t received them yet, I’d like to give a thumbs up to this early response!
AAlbertoI loved this place. I felt so relaxed and looked after with an amazing service. The room was fantastic. I loved the modern Japanese traditional style. I will come back one day🙏🦚
KKEI AboutA three-story hotel with only stairs. Breakfast is included and you can change to rice balls (room meals). Breakfast was delicious. Key to an ordinary condominium instead of a card key. So when you enter the room, you need to lock yourself. The area around the hotel is pitch black and there is a convenience store for the time being. Don't expect amenities, but it's good. Women need full equipment. It smells unique tobacco because it can smoke. It is a very inconvenient place without a car
GGuest UserIt is a quiet landscape that seems to be nestled in the forest, and the hotel on the hill is majestic, as if it boasts its age and experience. All the staff are friendly and friendly
I didn't have a dinner reservation, but when I asked, they happily obliged and had a kaiseki meal in a room with my name written on it.
I ate Japanese specialty food. All of the food was delicious and overflowing with class.
The view of the river from the spacious tatami room is exquisite.
The early morning buffet breakfast was also a delicacy among delicacies. All of the vegetables were carefully prepared, and the clear tofu soup, a local specialty, was also a delicacy. Of course, the fluffy white rice and miso soup were the best.
There were a lot of things, but the liver and taste were the best.
It was a ryokan hotelu that I wanted to go back to.
