Miimachi Vacations from ￥50,481

check-in process was a bit confusing, like we had to call the host to be checked-in but that’s okay, the place itself was quiet and cozy. 10 minutes walk to the bus, only down the street from a lawson.

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.

The place itself is really good for the price, but at night you can hear the apartments next to you and above you and since you're near the bridge you hear alot of cars. Check in process is bad as the listing says that within 24 hours they'll send you the access code but in reality they send it at 3 pm which means you stress over the fact that you're going to your accommodation without a code and they don't respond.

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！
