"Breakfast was great and delicious. Close to Hakata station which is great also.
It will be appreciated if extra fee for the hotel stay will be noted during the booking. Extra fee is not expensive but still it will be great if the fee is posted on their website. "
"The Hollywood triple room was smaller than we expected for three people, our 3 big luggages barely fit & opening them made it even tighter. I’ve stayed here before in a bigger room, which I definitely preferred, but it wasn’t available this time.
That said, the location is excellent, close to everything & the underground passages are super convenient once you get used to them. I also love that it’s connected to a mall, so there’s always something to do nearby. The bathtub & mist shower feature are great. Just remember to ask for bath salts at the 6th floor lobby during check in if you want to fully enjoy the tub, great after a long day of walking & exploring!"
"Stayed 2 nights. Excellent stay. Really enjoyed the 2 different breakfast options they provided. Also appreciated the coin- operated laundry room. Really close to the supermarket, train station and local sights."
"We had a pleasant stay at Plaza Hotel Premier Fukuoka. The room was the usual compact size for a Japanese hotel, but the central location was excellent — perfect for exploring the city."
