How to Spend Your Time at Mercure Karatsu in Saga, Karatsu

Stay: Mercure Karatsu / Karatsu City, Saga Prefecture

◼︎ Enjoy the Sea!
Spend your day at Higashi no Hama Beach, just a short walk from the hotel, until the evening. The sand here is incredibly fine and silky smooth! The kids loved it so much they ended up burying themselves in the sand like a sand bath 🤣

◼︎ Indulge in the Hotel
Relax in the large public bath and enjoy the buffet with a wide variety of dishes. Since it was the weekend (summer vacation period), there were also fun events like a festival and watermelon splitting! 🍉 This was such a delightful bonus!

◼︎ Hikiyama Exhibition Hall
Near the hotel, in front of Karatsu Station, there is an exhibition hall displaying the Hikiyama floats from the Karatsu Kunchi Festival. Be sure to check it out! ✨
