2-Star Hotels in Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan

This hostel has some genuinely strong points, but also several issues that stop it from being a great stay. It’s very much a mix of highs and lows. The positives: The common room is comfortable, with very good sofas and fast Wi-Fi (though it occasionally drops out — a router upgrade would easily fix this). There’s a shared kitchen with a labelled fridge, and the location is excellent for exploring Nagasaki. Dorm rooms are good value for the price. Bed spaces are a decent size, with excellent blackout curtains that block light even if others leave the lights on. You also get a small lockbox for valuables. The negatives: Check-in is fully self-service with no reception. You’re given a folder with rules and keys, but if you need help, there’s no clear support — which can be stressful, especially for travellers without phone SIMs. There is no lift. I stayed on the fourth floor, and the narrow stairs make carrying luggage difficult. Facilities per floor are also limited: only one toilet and one shower shared between multiple dorms, plus the washer and dryer on the same floor, which feels insufficient and awkward. Extras are all paid separately (towels, toothbrushes, earplugs, etc.). A towel really should be included at this price. Guests are also expected to strip their own bedsheets at checkout, which feels excessive. The common room layout could be improved. A large hammock takes up space and reduces seating — replacing it with chairs or bar seating would make the area far more usable. There were also staff or long-term workers frequently occupying the common room, which made the space feel less guest-focused. Air conditioning is locked and cannot be adjusted, so if you’re too hot or cold, you have no control. Would I stay again? As a backpacker on a very tight budget, yes — tahe location and price make it workable. But if you can afford it, I’d recommend paying more for a private room nearby. There are many hotels in the area offering much better comfort and support.

The hostel is nice with a nice layout that gives you some privacy. However since every bed has its own light people just kept it on the whole night so I couldn’t sleep. Also the dormitory is small and showers and toilets are inside the room and people started to use the hairdryer early in the morning. The owners are nice tho, and when I complaint they gave me an eye mask as a gift which was very thoughtful. Location is great.

Stayed in the capsule hotel near Bus station. It's on the 2nd floor and accessible only via an elevator. By looking at it felt like it was a new establishment. I'd recommend it for anyone who wants to avoid hostels.

The location is a bit uphill, but it's not too far, so it's suitable, and the owner is very kind. The only thing is that the bed is a little uncomfortable. It feels like two mattresses were combined into one, so I couldn't sleep well. The bathroom and shower aren't in a separate room, but are in the space next to the bed, so if you come in late and wash up, you'll be really self-conscious.

I got the room near the elevator that I was hoping for. It was very clean and comfortable. The Wi-Fi was a nice bonus, but since I forgot my charger, I tried not to use my phone much. They might have had chargers available to borrow, but it would be great if there was one in the room.

This is an excellent apartment-style hotel, conveniently located within walking distance of Nagasaki Station. It comes with all the necessary amenities, including a kitchen with a gas stove and microwave, a washing machine, and air conditioning. Check-in is handled at a central front desk that serves several buildings. You'll find complimentary bath amenities, as well as tea and instant coffee readily available. The bed was a bit small, and the mattress wasn't very comfortable; after a week, my back and neck started to ache (though the massage chairs at Amu Plaza helped with that). However, these minor drawbacks are offset by its superb value-for-money location. We managed to see all the key city attractions in a week without using public transportation at all. The station is just a 5-minute walk, which was perfect for early departures to neighboring cities or late returns. There's also a 24-hour Yoshinoya and several key convenience stores nearby. Highly recommended for couples who plan to actively explore the region.

This was my first visit to Nagasaki, driven by my craving for Nagasaki Champon. The hotel is incredibly close to Chinatown, and with the festival currently underway, the location couldn't be better. There's a convenience store and plenty of restaurants nearby. All the staff were very friendly, and I appreciated the guidebooks available for foreign guests in English, Chinese, and Korean, which was very convenient. I would definitely stay here again. Thanks to them, I had a wonderful trip. I'd like to thank all the hotel staff, and a special thank you to the male staff member working on the morning of February 18th. Happy New Year! :>

Booked for a night stay. I was able to add breakfast later. The sound of the next room may be noisy because the surroundings are quiet The bath is wide and you can take it slowly. I can't take it if I drink in town and get late. we didn't have slippers... I wonder if the bedding was a little hard and my back hurt. Location is in front of the sea. It is close to the beach and the best. The response at check-out was also good.

Beautiful traditional Ryokan, my room got both indoor and outdoor private onsen, the hotel is hidden in a forest hence super quiet and serene. Farm to table meals is a surprise; the inn have lands for rice crops, self grown mushrooms, and stable for goat and chickens. Lovely staff and good value for price.
