One of the best hotel I ever stay in Japan :) The place was strategic, near the station, near convenience store, near Karatsu tourism spot,etc. The hotel facility is also complete : laundry room, vending machine,etc. The breakfast was also delicious as well. Everytime I visit Karatsu, I always stay at this hotel.

GOOD
☆The rooms are not large, but they are clean and functional.
The laundromat is a drum type, so there is no need to refill the dryer.
Breakfast (service) is quite high quality.I regretted passing it up on the first day of my stay.
Close to the bus center
Convenience stores nearby (F-mart and Seijo-Ishii in the bus center)
Vending machines in the hotel are not expensive.
Good response from the front desk, etc.
bad
(When I actually visited Karatsu, I found that buses are more convenient than trains for transportation in Karatsu.(When I came from Fukuoka, I took the train, but on the way back, I used the bus.)

Place is clean. Only breakfast is not that much choice, and hotel doesn't have laundry. They have laundry machines. But no laundry that you can give it and after view day return. I think this is a minus point, because if you working and not local it's not easy to get your clothes cleaned.

I have stayed in Karatsu for the next day yobuko trip. The hotel was under reconstruction so the view was affected. The bed is comfortable and very quiet, I had a very nice sleep. Breakfast is included for all guests, the variety is limited with only bread, rice and drink, a little bit disappointed. Karatsu Dai-ichi Hotel is definitely the best hotel in the city so I would recommend to stay here if you visit Karatsu, other hotel option is limited though

We had planned to stay 2 nights however, it was the night of the devastating earthquake so we left early the next morning. The hotel is a typical business hotel and in my experience although compact always very clean. Wifi was good and breakfast included. Parking was on site. Had it not been for the earthquake it was an enjoyable stay.

A nice hotel. The rooms of two beds was spacious and clean. And the interior was fresh. The price from booking online was ok. The hotel is located near the railway and some nice shopping areas. Haven't tried the breakfast yet but either way the standard is preatty good overall.

I really enjoy my stay at Karatsu Daiichi Hotel! The room was clean (even though it's kinda small/single room), the breakfast was delicious (especially the breads), the staff are very nice and most of all : it's near all places and very strategic :) It's been twice I stay at this hotel :)

We enjoyed four nights at the Karatsu Dai-ichi Hotel in Karatsu, Japan. In typical Japanese style this hotel offers small, even compact, rooms with basic amenities. They offer on line service (take Ethernet cable) and a nice Japanese style breakfast with rice cakes, fruit, juices and pastries. The desk clerks remind you that you are off the tourist trail when they answer your questions in Japanese (no English speakers at the front desk). Our only complaint was the lack of a non-smoking room (all sold out apparently). Centrally located in the downtown of Karatsu, only blocks from the train and bus stations
