Hotels near Hakata Ward, Fukuoka

Nestled near Hakata Station, this hotel is clean and modern and provides all the amenities you need. The shower cubicle features a rain head which helps you relax after a long day of walking! The lounge area is big, which provides you with a calm and theuraptic place to relax. The lounge also has a balcony area where you can breath fresh air and just watch the surrounding area. There are plenty of food options nearby. However do note they don't have laundry machines in the hotel so you will have to bring your laundry to the coin laundry shop in the area. Nonetheless, will definitely stay here again in the future!

The hotel is ideally located, just 150 meters from the East Exit of Hakata Station. The rooms are spacious and well-equipped. The breakfast spread is excellent, with both Japanese and Western options available. There are plenty of great restaurants nearby, and shopping is very convenient. I'll definitely choose to stay here again on my next trip to Fukuoka.

The hotel's location is excellent, right near Hakata Station. From JR Hakata Station, take the Chikushi Exit East, turn right onto the sidewalk and walk straight. After the first large intersection, continue straight. You'll soon cross a smaller intersection, and past that will be a Lawson convenience store. The hotel entrance is right after Lawson. If you find the right exit, it's very easy to get to, taking about 3-4 minutes. The subway entrances for the Airport Line and Nanakuma Line are even closer to the hotel. The front desk staff was very friendly. They explained all the rules in English, even using pictures to detail the daily housekeeping services. The room size was decent, not small by Japanese standards. The overall hygiene was good. The room window could be opened slightly, though there was no view. Because of its convenience, I would consider staying here again in the future.

Like all the other reviews here, Forza’s location can’t be beaten. Its literally less than 1 min walk from the airport bus stop. The popular Hakata Station is also within a minute walk. The location alone earns the hotel a 5 star. Checking in and out of hotel was also an ease. The staff at the counter was helpful and friendly. A bag of toiletries was also prepared for my 8 yr old with kiddy slippers, which was much appreciated. The room was decent size, we chose the 豪華雙人房 (19 sq m I think?) with a mini couch area – perfect for backpacks, a window, and a portable massage mat. I loved the magnets that we can stick to the door to let the cleaners know whether or not our room needs to be cleaned. What’s more is that there is an option to choose “Take out trash and change towels only”. This is a really thoughtful option, because we really don’t need our room to be made up every day. And it’s perfect that we can just have the trash taken out and towels changed. I was a bit nervous about the cleanliness of the hotel rooms after reading some of the reviews on here, especially when I have a kid with me. I don’t want her to get sick from the germs in the room. But to my surprise, the room was quite decent, atleast I didn’t see any visible dustballs or dirty air con ventilators. Maybe because the hotel already took action to clean all the rooms and air con vents after reading some of the reviews here about dirty air con vents? I took a photo of our room air con vents for parents to take a look =) The air purifier in the room was also very comforting. We stayed in Forza for 6 days and none of us got sick =D For the first 2 days, I did smell a bit of a urine smell when you kneel close to the carpet/toilet. It was a slight faint smell. By the 3rd day, there wasn’t much noticeable smell anymore, not sure if it was the air purifier that helped or if we got use to it. Hahaha. On one of the nights that we returned to the hotel, we noticed that the cleaners had forgotten to put a trash bag back into the trash can. So I called reception and told them. The suited man that came with a trash bag didn’t seem too friendly. He looked like he either didn’t want to be there, didn’t know what he needed to do, or that we are trying to cheat him of a plastic bag. Anyway, I had to explain that I need a trash bag because I didn’t want to make the trash can dirty. I even had to SHOW him the trash can to convince him why I needed a bag. When he finally saw the empty trash can, he gave us a plastic bag, and left an extra one inside the trash can. He didn’t seem too pleased that I was trying to help protect the hotel’s assets, he just looks as if I disturbed his night. The shower head took some time to get use to too. Normally shower heads will be placed at a slight angle, but the shower heads in our room shoots straight at a 90 degree angle, which was quite hard to use coz the water will be shooting directly at your chest, and you would need to kneel down a bit to wash your hair, otherwise you would need to hold the shower head with one hand, while washing with the other hand. It’s a bit hard to explain, so I took some photos to show. But you will know what I mean when you stay at the hotel. Anyway, overall the stay was still very pleasant. I will definitely choose Forza again the next time I visit Fukuoka. Thank you Forza.

The hotel was clean and tidy, and it's just a 5-minute walk from Hakata Station. It's super convenient to be in the city center, right in the heart of Fukuoka. Breakfast was decent, and the service was great. Plus, the supermarket in the electronics store across the street had cheap and delicious food.

The room was a little smaller than another hotel with breakfast I've stayed at, but that wasn't a big deal. The toiletries provided were limited to toothpaste and toothbrushes; it would have been even better if skincare products were also available. Breakfast was Western-style, and guests could make their own pizzas.

Everything was great, exceeding our expectations. The only minor issue was not being able to call an Uber from the hotel, so we had to ask the front desk to call an airport taxi, which was quite expensive. Other than that, we were very satisfied.

The hotel boasts an excellent location, right across the street from Hakata Station. The rooms are clean, the breakfast is delicious, and there's a 7-Eleven downstairs. The bus terminal is also just across the road, and a taxi to the airport costs around 2030 yen. It's definitely the top choice when visiting Fukuoka.

This feels more like a 4-star hotel that doesn't live up to its name. We stayed for two nights, and despite requesting room cleaning, it was never done. We had to find a staff member ourselves in the evening to tidy up. We booked a room with a kitchen, but shockingly, we had to go to the front desk to pick up the kitchen utensils (which were quite heavy), which was a real hassle. The air conditioning in the room was very loud, so I'd advise anyone with light sleep to be cautious when booking. I do not recommend it.

The public bath was smaller than those in the other hotels we’ve stayed at, but overall it was great. I found the view from the bath very relaxing. Having a sauna and a gym would make it even better. Breakfast was tasty and offered a wide selection of different foods, mostly Asian dishes. I had high expectations for the kaisendon, but unfortunately it was just okay. I appreciated the professional attitude of the restaurant staff. Overall, the service met the expected standards. .
