Top Rated Hotels in Fukuoka

5 star

Hotel Nikko Fukuoka

9.4/10Amazing1365 Reviews
Hakata Fukuoka|1.44km from downtown
The room was very spacious, perfect for a solo traveler. I absolutely loved the mattress – not too soft, not too hard. The hotel lobby had a grand, stylish feel. Breakfast was decent, offering all the essentials. I particularly loved the location; just cross the street from the hotel and you're at Hakata Station. Coming back after a day out felt like returning home. The soundproofing in the room was excellent, making it incredibly quiet, almost like a meditation retreat. The only slight issue was on the last night when two very loud Korean guests checked into the room next door, but they quieted down by around 11 PM. I would definitely stay at Hotel Nikko again.
FromMXN$2,900

Miyako Hotel Hakata

9.5/10Amazing1621 Reviews
Hakata Fukuoka|1.96km from downtown
If you're coming to Hakata and want to stay near the station, the Miyako Hotel is undoubtedly the best choice. It's a Kintetsu company product that has become increasingly high-end since its capital partnership. It's only a 1-minute walk to the hotel from the station. There's a direct elevator from the ground floor to the 3rd-floor lobby. This Hakata hotel is of a very high standard. The rooms are spacious, the facilities are excellent, the internet is good, and the bed and pillows are comfortable. The design is also great, allowing for separate washing and toilet areas. The service is good; they quickly add more staff when they see a lot of people checking in and out.

Grand Hyatt Fukuoka

9.1/10Great518 Reviews
Hakata Fukuoka|0.82km from downtown
This trip to Fukuoka, staying at the Grand Hyatt was a big plus for its location. It's just a 1-minute walk from the Kushida Shrine Station subway, and close to Gion Station and Hakata Station. Taking the subway to Fukuoka Airport, Tenjin, Dazaifu, and Itoshima is super convenient. Canal City and Kushida Shrine are also within walking distance. The hotel has a trendy, minimalist urban style. The public areas are well-designed, and it even has its own large public bath and sauna – perfect for unwinding after a long day of walking. The rooms are clean and tidy, with thoughtful storage solutions, comfortable bedding, and all the essential amenities. ✅ Practical Experience: ▪️ Check-out is at 12:00. You can store your luggage for free after check-out, which is great for hassle-free shopping. The 24-hour front desk service is very friendly. ▪️ There are many convenience stores and restaurants nearby, making it easy to grab food or essentials. ▪️ Direct subway access to the airport means no stress when catching your flight. A small note: Japanese hotel rooms aren't huge, but this is typical for city hotels in Japan. Overall, it's a great choice for those visiting Fukuoka for sightseeing and shopping. Its excellent transportation links make getting around incredibly efficient.

Hilton Fukuoka Sea Hawk

8.7/10Very Good567 Reviews
Fukuoka|3.91km from downtown
The family suite at this hotel really surprised me – it actually had four large beds! It's definitely big enough for a whole family, though it's a shame there's only one bathroom. On the bright side, the toiletries and towels were all provided for four people, which was plenty. The hotel is a bit far from the city center, so there aren't many good restaurants or shops nearby. However, it's right by the sea with beautiful views, and you can even see sea eagles soaring in the sky. The room itself is spacious, with two desks, and the internet speed was decent, more than enough for our needs.

Hotel Okura Fukuoka

9.3/10Great911 Reviews
Fukuoka|0.67km from downtown
It's true that getting around is convenient, but the room had a really strong body odor. I sprayed some perfume when I first entered, thinking it would help, but after going out and coming back, the smell was still there. I went downstairs to the front desk, and they immediately arranged a new room for me. The front desk staff even came up personally to confirm the 'smell' I mentioned, and he even laughed when he smelled it himself... He said to me in Japanese, 'The smell is a bit strong, isn't it?' I really suggest not to be so cheap as to hire staff with such strong body odor, as it can be a nuisance for guests. The hotel rooms in Japan are small and often have no windows, so they can be poorly ventilated.

Hotel New Otani Hakata

9/10Great884 Reviews
Fukuoka|0.91km from downtown
This has become my first choice of hotel for staying in Fukuoka. Most of the staff are very friendly and caring. Especially the people from the concierge. One day, when my mother (who was still recovering from surgery and needs a cane to hold herself up) was waiting for taxi, a lady from the concierge saw her and brought a chair for her to rest. I also happen to have a surgery on my leg, and one of the manager (Mr. Sato) reached out and asked if I needed any help. You can really tell the staff are genuinely trying to help out and care for the customers. This hotel's location is also very convenient for me as it is in the middle between Hakata station and Tenjin. It is very easy to catch a taxi during most of the time. Dining is convenient as well since there are 4 restaurants inside the hotel. The rooms are a bit older but it is generally clean and neat, so it is all good as far as I am concerned.

Oriental Hotel Fukuoka Hakata Station

9/10Great2858 Reviews
Hakata Fukuoka|1.89km from downtown
The hotel is diagonally opposite Hakata Station, with Starbucks and Hankyu nearby on the second floor, making it extremely convenient to travel to other cities in Northern Kyushu via JR and limited express trains. The breakfast was varied and plentiful, though there wasn't much I particularly liked. There's no public bath.

Hotel Oriental Express Fukuoka Tenjin

8.6/10Very Good2370 Reviews
Tenjin Fukuoka|0.5km from downtown
Stayed at Hotel Oriental Fukuoka Tenjin and it was such a great choice! The location is super convenient—just a 2-minute walk to the subway entrance, making it easy to get around the city. There are also plenty of dining options nearby, with Yoshinoya, Matsuya, and even Shin Shin just around the corner. Service was consistently good, and the room was very comfortable. I especially loved the pillows and bed—perfect for resting after a long day of exploring. A nice touch was that they provided nightwear, which I didn’t bring, so that was really convenient. Breakfast had a great spread with lots of options to choose from, making mornings something to look forward to. Overall, a comfortable and hassle-free stay in a prime location!

The BREAKFAST HOTEL Fukuoka Tenjin

8.6/10Very Good983 Reviews
Fukuoka|0.42km from downtown
Getting there: It's about a 10-minute walk from Tenjin subway station, which can be a bit of a hassle with luggage because Fukuoka's terrain isn't always flat, especially on a rainy day. However, Tenjin shopping district is right outside the subway station, with lots of fun things to do, and there's also a train station where you can catch a ride to Dazaifu! After you exit the hotel alley, one way leads to Tenjin shopping district and the other to Canal City Hakata. There's even a huge 24-hour gachapon store along the way. Plus, there are tons of restaurants and izakayas right next to the hotel, which is super convenient. Cost: !!! You have to pay a 200 yen accommodation tax per night upon check-in. I was a bit confused because I didn't have to pay this at hotels in Osaka or Kyoto. Lobby: They offer free mango juice and fruit tea, which are really good. It's very quiet, and there's a Korean staff member at the front desk you can converse with in Korean. They also provide various amenities, including makeup remover, toner, and lotion. Room: Very quiet and clean. Surroundings: There's a Lawson convenience store right around the corner that has a currency exchange machine. I recommend exchanging your money there before you leave, as Fukuoka has very few currency exchange machines, and even Hakata JR station doesn't have one. I would consider staying here again.

Lyf Tenjin Fukuoka

9.2/10Great925 Reviews
Fukuoka|0.64km from downtown
Lyf Tenjin Fukuoka is located in Tenjin, roughly midway between Tenjin and Yakuin stations. A short walk is required to reach either station, but the surrounding malls are within walking distance, which is quite convenient. The hotel has a fancy vibe, but the rooms are really small. (While Japanese hotel rooms are generally compact, the layout and space utilization of this property are rather average, making it feel even tighter.) The rooms do not come with a refrigerator, bathtub, or dehumidifier; if you need a fridge, there are communal ones on the 3rd floor. Most basic amenities are located in the public areas, which feature indoor and outdoor seating, a microwave, laundry facilities, a pool table, and workstations. Ascott members can enjoy late check-out and complimentary drinks at the bar. Check-in is on the 3rd floor, and the hotel staff speak fluent English, making communication a breeze. There is a nice standing bar on the ground floor.

Richmond Hotel Tenjin Nishi-Dori

9.2/10Great1083 Reviews
Tenjin Fukuoka|0.49km from downtown
This hotel boasts a prime location right in the heart of Fukuoka's Tenjin Nishi-dori. It's directly across the street from Iwataya department store and Ichiran Ramen, with Tenjin Underground Mall, various shopping centers, Don Quijote, Zara, trendy fashion streets, the subway, and the Nishitetsu Tenjin express bus terminal all within easy reach. There are also tons of great restaurants within walking distance. The self-check-in process was super convenient, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The room was clean and tidy, and for Japan, it was actually quite spacious – enough room to open up two suitcases comfortably. The shower had excellent water pressure. My only minor complaints are that the sink is a bit low and the water pressure for the faucet is on the weaker side. This will definitely be my go-to hotel next time I visit Fukuoka!

Hakata Fukuoka|0.98km from downtown
The hot spring was as excellent as always. The room size was quite large compared to other Dormy Inn locations I've stayed at, and two large suitcases could be opened flat simultaneously. The transportation was convenient; it's very close to Canal City, just one subway stop from Hakata Station, and the subway exit is right downstairs from the hotel. There are also many convenience stores nearby. I'm not sure why the room wasn't cleaned during my two-day stay, but I could get clean yukatas and towels at the front desk.

A very nice hotel with a great location. Nearby, you can find a subway station, convenience stores, and even a park with beautiful sakura trees. The hotel staff were very helpful throughout the stay. The room was not very big, but it was comfortable enough. The only downside was that the window faced the neighboring building, so there wasn’t much of a view. The breakfast was okay — nothing exceptional, but perfectly fine. The onsen was quite small, but still very nice. One feature I really appreciated was that you could check the crowd level of the onsen on the TV in your room, which made it easy to find a good time to visit.

Hakata Fukuoka|1.08km from downtown
The room was too small. The location was convenient, but the front desk staff made me uncomfortable; they seemed to judge people. My friend got their room and went up, and when we arrived 10 minutes later, they told us we couldn't check in until 3 PM and had to wait another 28 minutes. I immediately asked why my friend had already gotten a room and gone upstairs. Their attitude changed immediately, and they said a room was available. After checking in, they even tried to explain that my friend was too tired, so they gave them a room first. I don't believe a word of it.

It takes about 10 minutes to walk to the Tenjin shopping area and around 6 to 8 minutes to Canal City Hakata—super convenient! There are plenty of yatai (food stalls) and convenience stores nearby, as well as a large Aeon supermarket that stays open late. The breakfast is definitely worth trying! It was lavish and delicious. Since we went a bit late, we were able to use our meal vouchers at the neighboring sister hotel, Hotel Monterey. We were so full that we ended up skipping lunch. The freshly cooked Miyazaki beef made on-site was incredibly fragrant and tasty, and the sweet potatoes were wonderfully sweet, too.

Hakata Fukuoka|1.09km from downtown
This is my second visit to Fukuoka this year, and my second stay at your hotel. This time, I noticed an additional option (Chinese self-service), which is great. However, my only minor concern is why the disposable slippers in the room have been replaced with reusable ones. Anyone can wear them, and I feel this is unhygienic and could easily spread foot diseases. Is it possible to revert to the previous disposable ones? My solution: I proactively asked the front desk for disposable slippers.

Amenities are self-service in the lobby, with a wide variety of toiletries to choose from. Breakfast is served in time slots and the buffet offers a great selection of delicious food. The complimentary snacks were also a thoughtful touch. On check-out day, we could store our luggage, and the hotel also assisted with taxi bookings, providing clear instructions for the pick-up location. Everything was excellent, and I would gladly stay here again. A big thank you to Lee! 😊😊😊

The location is fantastic! You can take a bus directly from Hakata Station to the hotel entrance, and it's also convenient to take a bus to the Tenjin shopping area. The subway is only a 5-minute walk away, perfectly situated between Watanabe-dori and Yakuin Station, making getting around super easy. The low ceiling in the room was a bit oppressive, but everything else was fine. It had all the standard hotel amenities you'd expect, and the staff were very friendly. They also offer a paid luggage delivery service to the airport. The breakfast was just so-so, truly mediocre. You could probably skip it – maybe it was just too Japanese for my taste, but the service attitude was still excellent. The cleanliness was pretty subpar, especially the air conditioning vent directly above. There was a thick layer of dust, and every time the AC was on, dust would fall down. The third picture shows the dust that fell shortly after I turned it on. I reported it the next day, and when I returned, it was clear they had cleaned the vent, and there was no more dust. They really need to pay more attention to details, especially for an older, established hotel.
