Cuore Nagasaki Ekimae

1. Location - this hotel is right across the street from Nagasaki Station. We used the elevated walkway right in front of the hotel to get to the train station/ stores. There is an elevator on both ends that we used when we had luggage. 2. Friendly staff - staff at front desk were friendly and helpful. You can buy 1 day tram pass from them. 3. Location 2 - there is a grocery store on the ground floor in the same complex as the train station which was handy for buying drinks, bento, snacks. There are restaurants on the top floor of the department store at the station. 4. We paid 800 yen which was reasonable for a buffet breakfast. Not a large selection but enough for us. There is a wider array of Japanese food than western food.

The beds were a good size, however they were too hard for me (though hard beds might be the norm in Japan). The pillow was hard as well, however the hotel can give you softer pillows on request.
