トイレの温水シャワーが出なかった！ 後は素晴らしい！またりようしますね！

This is our second time at THE GATE HOTEL FUKUOKA by HULIC. I love this hotel as its newly built with modern finishes in the guest room. We stayed in a Corner Double Room and it's so spacious. There is a short hallway with a mirror as you walk in. The toilet/bidet is in a separate room; it has a sensor so the lid opens as you get closer. The wash room includes the wash basin, with the separate bath tub and shower sectioned off with a sealed door. The bed is huge for two people, but the pillows were fairly average as it tends to sink as you sleep. While there is no public bath (sento), the bath tub in the room makes up for it. There is also a Nespresso machine with 4 pods but we didn't use it during our stay. The breakfast here is one of, if not, the best. Freshly squeezed orange juice as you enter. You are then asked if you prefer the French toast, eggs benedict or Japanese style breakfast for your main. There is honey comb at the buffet, a teppan with a chef to cook a selection of vegetables, as well as Western and Japanese options. It is directly connected to the Tenjin subway so it's convenient. Lots of shopping options nearby so you can hop out of your room and stumble into the various malls surrounding this hotel including ONE FUKUOKA. Also lots of food options so you're spoilt for choice. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat.

It’s located in the perfect spot, close to both public transportation as in buses and the airport subway line which takes you to many places, it’s also within walking distance to several major attractions. The original Ichiran ramen restaurant is just around the corner. You also have both seven eleven and familymart within 2 minutes walk. It’s in a lively area, but still a place that doesn’t overwhelm you. The beds are excellent, I had the best sleep. The interior and amenities are very stylish and well kept. My only downvote is that you can’t lock the luggage storage under the bed, so you leave your belongings in the open. I had no feeling of not being safe, but it still makes me uncomfortable because you just never know. There is a very small locker underneath the bed for valuables, that only fits a small handbag in size. Other than that, it’s an excellent accommodation.

I arrived just before 10 and was stressed out trying to check in on an iPad. Had I realized there would be no front desk I likely would have booked elsewhere. No room cleaning offered, nor fresh towels. There was a balcony but it was accessible only for emergencies so no fresh air, and rather stuffy. Space felt cramped.
