Shikanoshima Island Packages (Flight + Hotel)

The rooms we had were slightly smaller and the bathrooms were relatively small. I would say if you can go for the more expensive rooms then do it and your stay would be much more enjoyable. The facilities outside that were fantastic - this is a great spot for working travellers. The staff were great and super friendly.

Good area for dinner and walk around

Room was ok size but still a bit tight for us to move around. I appreciated the laundry machine in the room, which made it so much more convenient and was a super plus feature (whereas other hotels are shared laundry). The hotel is clean and the free beverages were nice. I just didn’t like the location because we had to cross the grittier part of Hakata station to get back. That food street had smoke coming from Burger King in addition to a lot of crowds before the calm. Once you get past that, it is less chaotic. The hotel is nice, overall. Area ok and close to the station.

Very good location and convenient to public transport and walking distance to major shopping hotspots. The facilities are modern and stylish. However as this is an apartment hotel service is limited especially for cleaning. One merit to mention is that each room is equipped with a washing/drying machine and thus save space for extra clothes, but the minus is that the pantry doesn't have any cooking utensils (cooking knife, pots, cutting board, crockery, cutlery, dish washing liquid etc.) except an electric kettle, tea cups and spoons, and if you want to do some very basic cooking like cooking an instant noodle you have to rent a saucepan or pot or chopsticks from the reception. This was an experience different from what we jad visited other chain apart hotels. To be fair then other hotels you jave to share washing and drying facilities in public laundry.

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.
