I never want to leave this ocean-view balcony suite in Nagasaki!
Nagasaki's Pearl of the Harbor: Nagasaki Marriott Hotel
During the Dragon Boat Festival, I embarked on a journey to Nagasaki and stayed at the Nagasaki Marriott Hotel, which opened in 2024. Here, I experienced unforgettable Japanese-style service. As soon as I entered the hotel, the staff bowed 90 degrees and escorted me to the elevator, making me feel like I was staying at the Ritz-Carlton.
Cost-effective choice
💰Average cost per person: I stayed in a 37-square-meter premium balcony room for 1,500. The price is quite reasonable for such high-quality service and beautiful views. Additionally, you can redeem Marriott points for a stay, which is very friendly for members.
Comfortable accommodation
🏘️Room layout: The premium balcony room is well laid out, with a walk-in closet and bathtub. From the balcony, you can enjoy views of Nagasaki Harbor and the city mountains. The hotel is very generous to members, and some members have reported being quietly upgraded to suites, enhancing the living experience.
🧹Soundproofing/hygiene: The hotel has good soundproofing, providing guests with a quiet resting environment. The hygiene is impeccable, and the rooms are clean and tidy.
Rich facilities
🛌Supplies and facilities: The rooms are well-equipped, and the little monk bathrobes are unique and popular. You can choose a custom Nagasaki Marriott coffee cup as a souvenir for the welcome gift. Although the hotel does not have a swimming pool, the gym can meet fitness needs. The dining service is excellent, with a wide variety of breakfast options, including freshly made scrambled eggs, Nagasaki omelets, eggs Benedict, and more. The strawberry pancakes are not to be missed. The exquisite happy hour is of high quality and worth experiencing.
Excellent location
The hotel is located next to Nagasaki Station, with bus and tram stops nearby, making transportation very convenient. It takes only 55 minutes by airport bus and only 15 minutes to the Atomic Bomb Museum and Glover Garden. From the Glover Garden observation deck, you can overlook the beautiful scenery of Nagasaki City. Moreover, the hotel owner is JR, located in the new building of AMU Plaza at Nagasaki Station, with everything you need for dining, entertainment, and shopping.
Thoughtful service
The hotel's service is exceptional, with friendly and enthusiastic staff providing detailed guidance during check-in. The 90-degree bow to bid farewell to the elevator, thoughtful room service, and the staff in the lobby on the first floor proactively opening the automatic door for guests all make you feel warm. The service level is comparable to the Ritz-Carlton.
Check-in tips
💗There are good barbecue and ramen restaurants at Nagasaki Station, and the mall inside the station is convenient for buying Nagasaki specialties. If you are a Marriott member, remember to identify yourself when checking in, as there may be surprise room upgrades and other benefits.
Overall, Nagasaki Marriott Hotel is one of the best Marriott hotels I have stayed at. Whether it is the service, facilities, or location, it is very satisfying. Whether you are traveling to Nagasaki or on a business trip, this is undoubtedly an excellent choice, and I believe you will be attracted by its charm.
