THE GLOBAL VIEW Nagasaki

The staff was really wonderful at the hotel. Even though we don't speak Japanese, we were able to communicate on basic essentials. The beds were hard like bricks and the pillows were unlike Western standard, but again it's Japan and we have found that hotels in this regard are very hit or miss over the year that we have lived here. The buffet breakfast was acceptable. The size of our room for a family of 4 (two very little kiddos and two giant parents) was spacious by any standard. The location was good for attractions. We have a van and can't speak to the train, street car, or bus access for exploring the city. History buffs may find Nagasaki very interesting. We found it depressing and dull.
