Tanoura Onsen Tours

What a perfect location for experiencing the city of Nagasaki. We were right located near the main area of Nagasaki Chinatown. We were surrounded by convenience stores and a very large number of restaurants either small privately owned to chain restaurants. Just generally shopping galor. There’s an and a very large number of restaurants either small privately owned to chain restaurants. There’s a small fish market right across the bridge. A barber next-door.Although there is no on-site parking, there was more than enough paid parking, which was in a very reasonable cost easily located all around this property. The property itself was again the perfect location. It was clean spacious fully stocked with all of the linens necessary to enjoy your stay. It also has a washing machine which worked out wonderfully for us. A small sitting area living room with a large screen TV next to a kitchenette. We would highly recommend this property for anyone spending time in Nagasaki. Conveniently located to Chinatown downtown the peace park the atomic museum. Five stars all the way.

A nice property with an excellent view of Nagasaki. Those who don’t speak fluent Japanese may have a hard time here, as staff speak minimal English but do work hard to communicate despite this. Translation tools were very helpful for our stay. Despite the language barrier, staff were mostly welcoming and helpful. A good selection of amenities were provided, though difficult to locate at first, as they are located toward the back of the hotel, opposite to the check in desk and stairs and elevator and we were not able to find these until our second day of the stay, as we were not directed to the location. Rooms were generally clean and spacious - bigger than standard Japanese rooms. Housekeeping was scheduled daily, with a request to leave your physical room key (no room cards available) with the staff prior to departing the hotel for the day so they may enter. It was not an issue to forgo daily housekeeping. Breakfast had a good selection of both Japanese and Western style foods as well as prefectural specialities. The only issue we ran into is that we were not given breakfast tickets at check in, despite having paid for them at booking. Most staff were helpful to overcoming this small issue. Lounge access was from 3:00 - 9:00 pm and included a variety of drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) and snacks, as well as a fantastic view of Nagasaki. 1 downside to this hotel is that it is at the top of a mountain, with limited public transit options. Taxi was convenient.

The Japanese style breakfast was excellent; there were a few choices for the western taste as well. The hotel has a good restaurant , Amalia for lunch and dinner. The neighborhood was great; easy walk to Grover Garden ( many shops around) and Chinatown ( opposite direction) also with many shops and restaurants. The hotel was nicely decorated with a Spanish colonial flair. We appeared to be the only westerners in the hotel. Staff was excellent and went out of their way to be helpful; their English was limited. The television had many options but it was all in Japanese.
