Karatsu Seaside Hotel

This place was our first stop in Kyushu, right from Fukuoka airport. From the moment we reached the lobby, we were impressed by the view of the sea right from the lobby. The design of the hotel felt elegant and refreshing. We booked the Deluxe Twin Room with Sea View. The view from the balcony was beautiful. The room was well lit, nicely designed, and spacious. The public hot bath has both an indoor and an outdoor bath with a nice view. The buffet dinner was really really good - don't miss it. The only regret we had was that we booked only a night's stay.

Location on the fringe of Karatsu is ideal, with easy parking. Our room in East Wing faced the beach and had a superb view on the bay. The outdoor swimming pool is beautiful, large enough for a little swim, with views right on the seaside and the celebrated local pine grove. You can easily go from beach to swimming pool. We were well received and kindly upgraded to a huge, luxurious room; every comfort you can think of was there. The circulation from bedroom to onsen to swimming pool can be complex, but we were given an English language map that greatly helped. This was our second stay in Karatsu, and we'd love to come back and stay in Karatsu Seaside Hotel another time !

This is just a superb, outstanding hotel in a superb natural environment. 1. A fantastic location: one side faces (50 m from) the sea, on opposite side, a nice pine forest. Quiet location, but close to the town and to a railway station. The beach is of sand, long and wide with a few people on it. 2. The rooms are very large and well equipped, with fully opened view of the sea. Every tiny detail was well thought; everything you may think of was provided, including indoor closes. And every corner is perfectly cleaned. 3. Polite, friendly and quickly responsive staff. 4. Interesting and reach, mainly Japanese, kitchen. Overall, I was surprised to get this exceptionally good service and conditions for the relatively small money I paid. This hotel unlikely is for those who likes entertainment, noisy bars and disco. Just for relaxing in Paradise!

This hotel is completely AMAZING!!! So beautiful, the staff is so professional, the spa is incredible, the rooftop sauna/pool is crazy beautiful and the breakfast buffet was excellent. The staff was so very nice although their English was very limited, not a problem at all with Google Translate!!! The room and the entire hotel was immaculate, the spa was the best I have ever been in, the onsen was totally amazing. Cannot say enough good things about this hotel, would stay there again tomorrow!!! Will definitely stay there when I return to Karatsu.

The hotel is amazing. The rooms are vast and beautiful, and the sea view is just breathtaking! Moreover, all rooms have sea view. The staff is very polite and helpful. The hotel also have great spa area, as well as indoor, outdoor, and roof pools. Everything is extremely clean. The hotel itself is brand new. There were also snacks and drinks for free in the room. We felt very relaxed and pampered. Last but not least, we had great massage in the room by an elderly man, we really appreciate it!
