Compare 5 airports near Yanagawa
For most travelers, Saga International Airport (HSG) is the most efficient choice, located just 9.77 km from the Yanagawa center in the neighboring city of Saga, offering quick and affordable taxi or shuttle access. Fukuoka Airport (FUK), while situated 47.08 km away in neighboring Fukuoka city, acts as the primary international gateway; it is well-connected via a efficient mix of subway and the Nishi-Nippon Railroad (Nishitetsu) train line, making it a very popular and balanced option for those flying from abroad. Yamaguchi Ube Airport (UBJ), Fukue Airport (FUJ), and Kagoshima International Airport (KOJ) all serve other neighboring cities and require significantly longer transit times, involving multiple transfers via Shinkansen or regional buses. These airports are better suited for travelers with specific regional itineraries or those finding significantly better flight fares. Always prioritize arrival times and connection ease when choosing between these hubs, as the public transport infrastructure is heavily centered around the Fukuoka-Yanagawa rail corridor.

This was my first time in Yanagawa, and I decided to stay at this hotel. They offer a half-board package (dinner and breakfast), and parking is available. You can also rent a private onsen for an extra fee. The environment is incredibly comfortable, and it's very convenient that a family of four can stay in the same room. Our room even had an outdoor hot spring! Plus, there's free ramen available after 9 PM every night. It's truly perfect for a family vacation. I'll definitely be staying here again.FromUS$77

Hygiene: The room is large and clean, obviously newly renovated
Environment: There are not many rooms in the hotel, very quiet and comfortable, the courtyard is especially great! Especially at night when there are not many people, you can stay in a daze for a long time!
Service: The hotel staff is very polite, the hotel has free drinks in the morning and evening, which can be taken at will and brought back to the room
Facilities: The hotel is in the center of Yanagawa, Tachibana Mansion is very good, and the hotel does not have a hot spring♨️
In short, it is worthy of being the home of the Lord of Yanagawa!FromUS$263

The system to leave your shoes at the entrance and enter the museum was novel. The rooms were clean and everything you needed was available, so it was a nice trip at a reasonable price. Breakfast is Japanese, but the menu was satisfactory. The hot spring was comfortable and I liked the electric bath.FromUS$42

It was great to experience this traditional home-style inn that is run by hard work during this trip to Japan. It is a 2-minute walk from Nishitetsu Nakajima Station. I was the only guest there when it was snowing on the day I arrived. The proprietress was kind and friendly and spoke good English. She prepared different and rich breakfasts and dinners for me every day. In addition, the bathing room can be used alone. I slept very well after two consecutive nights of bathing. Although the inn is a bit old, all places used by guests are very clean, which makes people feel at ease.
￥15000 for two nights with breakfast and dinner included, exclusive use of the bathroom, and for this price on Friday and Saturday nights, I will stay again.
There is delicious eel rice 14 minutes' walk away, and there is a fish shop that grills seafood next to the 7-11 3 minutes' walk away.
*The only thing I would like to remind you is that it is inconvenient to carry large luggage, because you have to walk up stairs to Nishitetsu Nakajima Station and you also have to carry the luggage up stairs to the hotel, but I was able to move it freely with a 28-inch suitcase.FromUS$26

I wanted a ryokan where I could feel the traditional scent of Japan, not a chain hotel that is so common these days, and this was the ryokan I was looking for. At first, I was a little worried after reading a review that said the ryokan owner didn't speak English, but we communicated without any problems. Most hotels are very small, but the room was very spacious, and it felt like my fantasy that I've only seen in dramas and comics came true. Personally, as someone who has been to Japan several times, this was the accommodation I was most satisfied with. It goes without saying that it was clean.
Also, the Japanese-style food I had for breakfast is still lingering in my mind.
I want to try dinner next time I visit! ♡FromUS$100

I had a really wonderfull stay at this cosy Ryokan in Yanagawa. Though most people come to Yanagawa as a day trip from Fukuoka, I think its a nice enough place to stay for a couple of nights. The ryokan is in an old fashioned style building, so it transports you to a different feeling in time. The people who ran it were very generous, offering me snacks and tea constantly, even a welcome ice cream! Their warmth and comfort added to the atmosphere of the place. The room I chose was spacious, with a large window, air con, a TV and comfortable tatami floors. The atmosphere is very traditional, and when it rained, it felt rather peaceful. They are located 15 minutes's walk from the station, it's easy to walk to any location in the town, and when you do so, you get to see lots of hidden small canals and amazing buildings. Even close to the ryokan is a hidden shrine. There are lots of restaurants in the area serving the local speciality Unagi (Grilled Eel), which I highly recommend trying. I would definitely stay here again! The best part is downstairs, they have a Jazz bar (Kissa) called Groovy, the owner was fun to talk to, he had many records from over the years and interesting stories to share. As a lover of Japanese jazz culture, this was the best thing ever. FromUS$23

I came here because of Ni Ni's movie ”Long Confession”. I really like it. It's not big but very comfortable. It's very suitable for spring and autumn. This hostel has a youth hostel feel and the rooms are clean. Public bathrooms, public restrooms. You can order breakfast for a fee and it tastes good.
This is also where the crew of The Long Confession rested, drank tea, and put on makeup during filming.
Turn left at the intersection and you will find the river where the three of them walked and took Ah Chuan on their bicycles in the early winter. After a few steps and across the bridge, there is the Grotto bar where Ah Chuan sang. Many scenes were shot in this area.
The hostess of the hotel knows the filming location very well and can rent a bicycle from the hotel to explore it.
I found almost all the shooting locations. Thank you to the lady boss. It was a pleasure to communicate.5 star

So lucky that the host upgraded us to one of the best rooms there with private bath. It's a mix of western and japanese room which is so new and looked like newly renovated. The facilities inside are of top quality, including the Refa hair dryer. The beds were comfortable. The view was absolutely breathtaking. When we entered the room, we couldn't control our excitement. Service was excellent and staff spoke good English. Meals was another highlight, where you could try different types of well-seasoned seafood. Sake was reasonably priced and good choices on the list. Will definitely come back next time. Thanks again for upgrading us!FromUS$40
