Five-Star Hotels in Sasebo

Everything! The hotel was fabulous, clean, bright and the staff were great. Its a beautiful corner of Japan (even if all the Dutch theme is a bit odd!)

The view is great, and the room is very cozy.

Location, Hospitality, Atmosphere, Accessibility, Meals, everything!

I thought at first the location is pretty far from everything but it's quite perfect. I booked the night of the Lunar New Year fireworks but planned to catch it inside the Huis Ten Bosch park instead of the paid seats in front of the hotel. There is luggage service and shuttle in front of the Welcome area of the park, I was able to drop off my bags and enjoy the park while waiting for check in. There are multiple shuttles around the park that drops people off right at the hotel lobby so that is convenient when you want a rest. The room is quited dated and a bit dusty, and the restaurant is pricey. There is a convenience store just a few meters from the hotel so I got my supplies there. After the fireworks show, it was a leisurely walk from the park through the pier and to the hotel, pretty well lit and safe eventhough I was alone and it was late. The next day, they delivered my luggages after check out to a Yamato shop right outside the exit of the park while I still enjoyed my 2nd day of exploring. There is also a bus ticket station where I purchased my bus ride to Nagasaki. It was a seamless transit for me, from Fukuoka to Huis Ten Bosch to Nagasaki.

We felt really welcomed at the hotel! The stuff were all more than incredibly kind, polite, and helpful. The rooms are really nice and spacious and the view is just breathtaking! The restaurant of the hotel is also amazing, from breakfast to dinner everything was very tasty and beautifully presented. The people working at the restaurant are also sooo kind! We observed something amazing - the manager took a baby from its mother for s stroll, so that she can eat in peace. Of course, the architecture of the building is beyond describing, as it is created by the famous architect Kengo Kuma. The interior design is also really nice. When we were leaving, all the stuff came outside the hotel to wave goodbye... A truly amazing hidden jam!

Beautifully appointed, lovely tatami floors
