How to get there

There is an airport in the city, about an hour’s drive from the center, but most people arrive by Shinkansen from Osaka (1h 40m) or Fukuoka (1h).

Where to stay

You can check out hotels from the main station towards the castle — the Hattori or Noboricho districts. There’s a wide selection of business hotels and good transport connectivity for getting around.
