Hotel berhampiran Kanmom Tunnel, Kita Kyushu

Great stay at JR Kyushu Station Hotel Kokura! The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The location is excellent, right above JR Kokura Station, with shopping centres and plenty of eateries nearby. Kokura Castle is also within walking distance. The complimentary lounge with free drinks and light snacks was a nice bonus and a great place to relax after a day out.

The hotel located very near to the JR station , approx 5 mins walk to station , there’s many restaurants nearby

I loved this hotel when I first saw it, it’s exactly like it’s advertised, there is a whole shelves of comics in the lobby and you can bring them to your room and read ! The breakfast is also very thoughtful and delicious! I booked this place because I want to visit Mojiko and Shimonoseki, not to mention personally I think Kokura has better shopping experience than Hakata, with lesser tourists and you can get the items that are always out of stock in other big city! One negative side during Friday night there are a lot of drunk people walking like zombie around the station 😸 and I got slightly lost to get back to the hotel at night, the front desk staff is helpful and friendly.

Perfect if you have an early flight in the morning. The hotel is just 5-8 min walking from the airport. The staff was very polite and really helfull, they speak japanese, english and korean. For breakfast you get different options of rice; bread, fish, etc. If you don't want to eat in the dinning area, you can bring the food to your room. Also, you can always walk to the airport and get food and drinks at the convenience store. Keep in mind there is nothing besides the airport and the hotel, so don't expect much. This is perfect to rest before or after a flight.

Location is walkable from the JR station, surrounding malls and tourist spots, while not being in the centre of it all, making it a quiet and comfortable stay. There are many buses nearby so taking the bus instead of train was a good option to have. Walking distance can also be reduced sometimes via taking the bus. At the same time, the airport bus is at the JR station, so it was very convenient. The hotel while a little dated, is well maintained with floors segregated by non-smoking and smoking. Luggage deposit before and after is also available and the staff are very helpful with that. The bedside console comes with an alarm clock and even a music player where ambience music can be played - it is a very nice touch to have!!

The hotel is also conveniently located in Kokura, making it easy to explore nearby spots. The hotel has a classic Japanese-style atmosphere with a beautiful traditional garden, koi pond, and stone pathways that instantly give you a calm, peaceful feeling

Very strategic location, it’s about 300-400m from the train station. The hotel offers 24 hour FOC breads, snacks, coffee etc. All guests are allowed to enjoy the snacks after checkin before checkout. The bed is typical Japanese bed size, small for two person as it’s smaller than a queen size bed. The room’s light is dim though it has a controller to set the brightness. One big negative point to note, we booked and paid extra charge for breakfast for 2, but in actual fact , the hotel doesn’t offer any breakfast, just the same snacks which are offered free for all guests. So we kind “cheated” by paying extra ..to the room? (Since there isn’t any breakfast)

Great loacation, near to kokura station, check in process is abit not so friendly as i booked 2 double bed room, all the room are required to have at least 4 passport to proceed for check in, but i book for 2 persons each room. Other than this, all good.

There is a big public bathroom. But the place is not convenience for travel with train

Though location is a little far but the free shuttle bus to and fro Orio station made is super convenient for an onsen retreat. There's a direct bus from Kitakyushu Airport to Orio station too, which makes it even better. Thankfully, the staff kindly took note of the shuttle reservation request made during booking, otherwise, it would have been very inconvenient to contact them and expensive to get to the resort by other means. They left a note to check the official website for pick-up point but there was no specific information - something that can be improved. The location was found to be BEHIND Maxvalue Shop (see first few photos). The resort is visited by mainly locals so it was helpful to see and ask them for confirmation. Facilities might a bit old but generally clean so it was okay. The room is nice and comfortable, particularly the view. It was very nice to see the hotel using reusable wares with even a refillable jug to get water from a machine at the shared space. Both sides of the natural onsen is switched between male and female everyday. Supper tantan noodles is great! Breakfast is not bad with both fusion western style and traditional Japanese options. It was a very nice and relaxing time!
