Hotel Halrotto Fukuoka Hakata Reviews

Talking about choosing the perfect hotel for travellers like us who are always on the road and just wanna relax and rest on a nice, cozy, peaceful hotel just outside the main actions happening in Fukuoka’s JR Hakata station then this is the one you should book - Hotel Halrotto Fukuoka Hakata. It’s a perfect hotel good for both tourists and business travellers. It is about 10 mins walk at JR Hakata station’s Chikushi gate and walk towards the East. It is located on quiet street opposite the main road of Hakata Central street. So all the hustle and bustle of the city is located opposite this hotel which is quite unique. Your near yet a bit far enough to have your peaceful time indeed. The walk is also not difficult because you just need to traverse the main street going to the statione except when its raining. First impression, it was a modern newly renovated hotel, very clean, friendly and accomodating staff and they provide tons of toiletries - I especially loved the reusable bath foam. Another plus - they have a laundry coin washer/dryer area if you need to wash your clothes especially for us embarking on a 2 week trip in Japan. Even though its on the quiet part of Hakata doesn’t mean there’s no activity. The hotel is in the middle of convenience stores, Ramen shops and many other bars and restaurants. In fact, as you walk along the way going back and forth almost all convenience store brands you will pass by. There is also a homey and delicious Ramen place just outside our hotel. We came in early after a Red eye flight from Bangkok and check-in is strictly followed at 3 PM. So we left our bags first and strolled around Hakata’s Canal city. Check-in was smooth and quick and you just need to pay the city’s accomodation tax which varies depending on the lenght of your stay. When we came back at 3 PM, our room is ready and we are super excited because finally we can rest and sleep a bit. And much to our delight - the room was perfect!!! We got a great deal booking this hotel before Japan’s Golden Week holiday week. At just 23K Yen for 4 nights we hit the jackpot. Our Double Room was booked on the 5F which consists of Double Bed, a table, small window, a flat screen TV and of course the penulminate Japanese style toilet equipped with high tech automatic toilet bidet and the small yet efficient tub which could fit at least an adult. With a size of 14 sqm it is definitely bigger and more spacious than other famous budget friendly hotels in Japan. In fact, we could open 2 large luggages on the floor at the same time. As we enter, the mini-fridge and there’s a mini-wardrobe ocated right away to your left where you could hang your clothes.. They also have a wall hanger for your used clothes/towel located to your right in front of the toilet typical for Japanese rooms. There’s a body mirror also beside it. The toilet/tub is the star for me, a bit bigger defnitely than other famous hotels with enough space for 2 people to brush their teeth or use the
