If you're looking for a hotel in Kitakyushu, just stay here! Located directly above JR Kokura Station, it offers the best accessibility to public transportation and shopping malls. The rooms are in great condition and very well soundproofed, making for a really comfortable stay. You can get from your hotel room to the JR Kokura Station platform in just 30 seconds!

The high ceilings and excellent service made our stay very satisfying! 4. The hotel breakfast is exquisite and delicious. Overall, our family really loved this hotel!

It was so convenient to get around because it's right next to Kokura Station. There was a bit of a drain smell in the bathroom, but I didn't stay in the accommodation for long, so I didn't pay much attention to it. The location pretty much makes up for any downsides~

Transportation Convenience: Approximately a 5-minute walk to Kokura JR Station, very convenient. Hotel Location: Several shopping streets and restaurants nearby, and only a ten-minute walk to Kokura Castle. Breakfast: The buffet breakfast is provided by the Italian restaurant downstairs. The variety cannot be compared to a regular buffet, but it has a little bit of everything, so it's acceptable. Service: Semi-self-service check-in is used. You must first register your passport and fill in your personal information at the counter, and then go to the self-service machine to collect your room card. Cleanliness: The room is quite clean and tidy, and the space is wide. Unexpectedly, there is a Panasonic massage chair. The bathroom has a regular Japanese bathroom design with a full-size bathtub, but the disadvantage is that the bathroom door cannot be locked.

Location of hotel is good, Level 2 has a sheltered walkway linked to Kokura station. When exit from the door, turn right to take the route towards stadium, this is faster as it has a travellator. It’s less walking than walking towards Lawson and walk pass the anime building to the same kokura station entrance. From kokura, can access many malls such as Vierra, AMU plaza, Saintcity. If the tower floor has discount, highly recommend to take it as the amenities are good and refilled each day of the stay. Free access to Tower library which is a quiet and cozy area to chill and enjoy the free drinks. There are hot and iced coffee, tea, calpis, Minute Maid etc. View from level 27 is good and there is a description sheet. Breakfast set menu is good, had a special fish dish on the both days I went, service is top notch. Buffet spread at level 1 is good too, has many tasty selections. After the buffet, can even takeaway a cup of coffee from the entrance coffee machine.

The location is absolutely fantastic! About a 4-5 minute walk from the station? And right in front of the back gate of St. City? Muji is a 1-minute walk, and there are free breads, drinks, and even whiskey? and nuts from 3 to 10 o'clock! But the room is stuffy... They don't allow you to open the window, so the ventilation isn't good, and it's damp...!! It feels like being inside a train. But all the staff are friendly, and the rooms are clean! I'd go again if I were staying for about a day.

It’s not a common route, so there were less people on our tour. Perfect for people who want to get away from the over-crowded tourist spots near fukuoka (takachiho/beppu tours) and not sure where else to visit on a free day. Highly recommended tour, as our tour guide Edward was very professional and gave detailed explanation about the destinations’ - some fun facts, some historical knowledge, and some chemistry knowledge.
