Sakamoto-ya

Top choice in Nagasaki


This magnificent old-school ryokan has been in business since 1894. Offering shippoku-ryōri (Nagasaki-style kaiseki) and personalised service, Sakamoto-ya has just 11 rooms, each with a hinoki-buro (cypress bath). Hallways are lined with Arita-yaki pottery and there are postage-stamp-size gardens off 1st-floor rooms. From Goto-machi tram stop, walk past S-Peria Hotel and turn left; it's diagonally across from the TV tower.
