"The staff was nice but the check in system failed to match the surname and last name correctly so it took extra time to identify the booking. Very convenient location of shopping mall nearby and there are even two yatai food stores exactly downstairs. The room facilities were good (eg refa hairdryer) but we took some time to realise how the lighting switch worked and the door partition between the sleeping and washing area."

"The apartment was a brand-new build (opened in July this year). The exterior and interior are incredible—full of a warm wood scent with a modern Japanese design aesthetic. The location is unbeatable. It is right outside a subway exit, with a 24/7 supermarket around the corner, 2 drugstores, the famous Kushida Shrine right across the street, and plenty of restaurants nearby. Check-in was smooth using the tablet at the front entrance, and free luggage lockers are available on the ground floor on a...

Top Gionmachi Hotel Reviews

Nest Hotel Hakata Station

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was excellent !!"

Mitsui Garden Hotel Fukuoka Gion

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic location for Hakata station. Hotel was modern, well maintained and clean. Met expectations for the price point. The room was tiny, I think even by Japanese standards? Was our smallest room of the trip but we did stay in a range of hotels and price points. Staff were very helpful and polite. Would stay there again when using as a base."

Nishitetsu Hotel Croom Hakata Gion

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were tight as are all Japanese Hotels in this category. A little tough for two people with two large suitcases so you'll have to improvise a bit. Onsen could be crowded in the evening. In the afternoons it's empty. Biggest plus is location. Lots of great stuff within walking distance. Tensin Yatai area just a stop away. One stop to Hakata station. 24 hour grocery store just a few minutes away by foot."
