Top Gionmachi Hotel Reviews

Tokyu Stay Fukuoka Tenjin

8/10 Good

"I gave 4 mainly for their location, easy access to most of the places. The bus stop is literally in front of the hotel, there are 2 convenience stores and a drug store nearby. The famous food stall street is also close to the hotel. The washer n dryer Def comes in handy. The only thing I dont like is their pillows, it was way too soft."

THE BLOSSOM HAKATA Premier

10/10 Excellent

"Honestly, absolutely everything. The staff were extremely helpful. Coming from America I did not know any Japanese. I was traveling with my son who was going to be going to college there. I’m the very first day my son got lost on his way to school. The Kyushu university. I was terrified. I went down to the lobby and the staff helped me find my son. They called a taxi cab to pick him up and the taxi brought him to me at the hotel. I was so grateful so thankful for all the help. Your staff truly went above and beyond and out of their way to comfort me and help me get my son back to safety. Anytime I fly to Japan I will be staying at the blossom. The staff made the experience unforgettable. The staff at the restaurant I believe it’s called. The nine were truly amazing as well. The food, the kindliness were all truly amazing."

THE BASICS FUKUOKA

8/10 Good

"Our second time staying here. Is about 10mins stroll from Hakata station. There are a few convenient shops along the way. The place is quiet. We arrived early as our flight touches down in the morning. We were happily greeted by Miss Soyoka. She welcomed us warmly and hearing that we are check-in, she asked for our passport to check on our reservation. We understand we were early as check-in time is 3pm. Nonetheless, Miss Soyoka proactively help us in all ways she could to make us settled in. We placed our luggage at the luggage holding area and left the hotel, returning later to complete our check-in. On the second day, I met Miss Soyoka and have a little chat with her. Also expressing my Thankfulness for her service. I found out she is new. However, her service felt so right and experience! The lady that helped us eventually did not present the same level of thoughtfulness and sensitivity. The hotel is good, otherwise, we would not have returned. Thank you Miss Soyoka."

Mitsui Garden Hotel Fukuoka Gion

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel in a good location. Staff are very courteous and helpful. The Onsen/public bath is excellent, with and indoor and outdoor jacuzzi. Would have liked a cold plunge, but the steam room made up for it. Canal City shopping across the street with a fun nightly fountain show, and a few solid bakeries right next door."

9h nine hours Hakata station

10/10 Excellent

"Simple capsule style accommodations. The atmosphere was quiet and calm. Location is excellent. Just a short walk from Hakata station and an even shorter one to the local convenience stores and restaurants. What I really appreciated was the hospitality shown by the staff. Despite my predicament during check in, the staff went out of their way to accommodate me. Thanks to their efforts I was spared a great deal off trouble."
