What Guests Say

Excellent location, away from the busy nightlife areas but very accessible and so convenient/close to Hakata station. Also convenient for taxi pickup/dropoff, and there’s a Fuglen cafe just minutes away on foot. We arrived early in the day and were able to leave our bags at reception for checkin later, which was very helpful. The lobby is as beautiful as expected, and the room was really lovely — the decor is gorgeous, and everything was so comfortable and spacious (great shower and comfortable pillows, especially).

Beautiful hotel. The breakfast was outstanding with a large selection meats, fish and vegetable dishes. It was fun to try all the options. Room was very comfortable and well appointed. The location is a convenient walk to the subway and train. A few blocks away along the canal is a nice park with a surfaced running track. We booked a room with lounge access which was much appreciated after a long day of sightseeing we decompressed there before heading up to our room. The unique design of the interior with the multifloor display of books made the hotel a special stay.

• Receptionist: Good attitude, though a warmer smile and more approachable demeanor would enhance the experience. • Amenities: Small packets of makeup remover and face wash are available at the front desk, which is a nice touch. However, the placement of the basket directly in front of the staff made it slightly awkward, as it could give the impression you’re seeking assistance when you’re just grabbing amenities. • Room Cleaning: Daily cleaning was thorough and kept the space clean and comfortable. The bath tub was spotless, with no stains on the edges, which was impressive.

The location was great. It was close to Hakata Station (a 5-8 min walk, I think) and it was like a 5-minute taxi ride from Fukuoka International Airport. There is a Family Mart next to it, and was very near ramen places and drugstores. The staff there speaks English enough for us to understand each other. They were also thoughtful enough to give each of my kids a kit that contains bedroom slippers, a duck sponge, and toothbrush. So cute! Too bad we weren't able to experience their breakfast buffet due to our hectic schedule.

Location is nice - 5-10min walk from Hakata station. I realised next time I may prefer a hotel in the Tenjin area as I spent most of my time there eating and shopping. Need to keep an eye on last train times - my partner and I ended up needing to didi 10min (vs 30min walk) due to a late supper. Room is very spacious for Japanese standards, however feels abit plain, nothing extraordinary. One thing I noted is that you need to turn the switch on for the whole room in order to turn on the bathroom light - this meant waking my partner up early morning with bright lights when I needed to use the bathroom.

We stayed a second time at this hotel at the end of our trip. The 2nd stay was equally good and no major complaints or issues. We made better use of the lounge this time and the kids enjoyed using the tokens to help get us glasses of wine. We also tried more of the breakfast options around which was nice. Also, if you are traveling with a bigger group and require a large taxi/van, we recommend asking the hotel for help booking a few weeks in advance of the date you need it. Otherwise, just use the GOTaxi app to book a few taxis when you need them. The taxi will arrive within a few mins.

Location opposite a small park and a short stroll to the main train station, impressive building (and reception area space especially), excellent bathroom (very spacious) although the shower controls were complicated. Shower pressure very strong.
