We had a memorable stay in Fukuoka and the hotel experience plays a large part in it. The rooms are modern, big and clean. The hotel is a 5 minute walk to Hakata station. Convenient location and at the same time quiet neighbourhood. There is a coffee shop beside the hotel. Our rooms come with a lounge access, which is a great way to regroup and unwind at the end of the day.

The lobby is gorgeous! Staff helpful and gracious. Concierge helped us book reservations for kid’s haircuts. They also helped with luggage delivery service and accepted credit cards for payment. You had to scan a qr code and enter the info and they would measure and weigh your luggage to determine the cost. We had a a clean and spacious room. There was a illy coffee maker in the room but no convenient outlets other than the extension cord where the tv was plugged in. There were tea bags but no kettle. Microwave was by the front desk. No coin laundry facilities but provided laundry service. They had moisturizer and cleanser provided at the front desk. Other amenities like toothbrush, comb, qtips, cotton pads, pajamas, and slippers were all in the room. They provided kids’ slippers and toothbrushes also. Note that there was no body lotion but no big deal as there was a drug store 3 minutes by foot. Great location with a family mart right next to it and a cafe that had really good coffee. It was less than a 10 minute walk to hakata station-actually felt more like 5 minutes. Numerous cafes nearby. Overall great stay!

Spacious and clean rooms in a beautifully designed hotel, perfect for books lover but probably not for international guest who do not read Japanese. Receptionist not as eloquent in English and did not know about any “Expedia VIP access” such as free parking only until we explained. No service beverage for guest like most traditional hotels in Japan, bottled water are only provided to match number of adults and charged at ¥200 each. We travelled as 2 adults and 2 children, only 2 bottles of water provided, better could be done in this aspect.

The hotel lobby is impressive, featuring towering bookshelves, comfortable lounge seating, and a thoughtfully curated collection of Japanese books for guests to enjoy. It is a highly Instagrammable space and creates a strong first impression. The staff are generally helpful, particularly with luggage storage before and after check-out, as well as assisting with calling a taxi to the airport. However, a more prompt and proactive welcome would enhance the overall guest experience. The rooms are indeed small and basic. While the bookshelf-themed wallpaper adds some character, the overall design could be improved, even considering the limitations of the circular architectural layout. Ventilation in the rooms could be better, and the rooms would benefit from a fresher smell. A humidifier is provided instead of the standard air purifier commonly found in many hotels. The bathroom feels cramped, and in one of the rooms there was a noticeable smell of urine and mould during showering. This may be due to the shower curtain or wall surfaces and detracts from comfort and cleanliness. In terms of location, the hotel is approximately a 10-minute walk from Hakata Station when carrying luggage, which is manageable. However, it is located on the opposite side of the station, making it about a 25-minute walk to Canal City and the Aeon Express supermarket.
