Kurono Station × Highly-rated Hotel·Ryokan

The guest room, hospitality and service, Onsen, Facility, and meals—everything far exceeded my expectations, and I was amazed at how satisfied I was. The atmosphere of the bath and the water were especially wonderful; I wanted to stay in forever. The food was also outstanding, and my wife was delighted. We also enjoyed playing table tennis, and thanks to the light exercise and the Onsen, we slept soundly at night—better than at home. We will definitely return together. Thank you very much to everyone at the Accommodation.

From the moment we stepped through the noren curtain, it felt special and exciting. The staff were cheerful and friendly, which was wonderful. The Room made me want to live there rather than just stay overnight. We enjoyed a delicious meal while watching the surroundings gradually grow darker. As an extra order, we had foie gras added on top of the meat, and it was excellent. Since it was an all-inclusive Plan, we fully enjoyed some great cocktails. It’s also close to Dazaifu, so we were very satisfied. I’ve already been recommending it to friends.

On my first trip to Fukuoka, I chose a Hotel near the airport because I had an early morning flight. There was an uphill road and it was a bit of a walk from the airport to the Hotel, but still within walking distance. There was also a large public bath, and it was clean and relaxing. The shampoo and other amenities were POLA, and the basic skincare products were Sekkisei, so I was glad I could use them even with sensitive skin. They kindly provided a free shuttle bus to the airport in time for my early morning flight, which was very helpful. It was a short stay, but I was satisfied.

The Accommodation and our Room were very clean, and we had a comfortable stay. There were many Onsen options—an in-room scenic-view bath, the Facility’s large public bath, an open-air bath, and a family bath—so my Onsen-loving husband and our 6-year-old son enjoyed them so much they went four times a day (laugh). The hospitality of the proprietress and staff was wonderful. I was pregnant, but I was able to truly relax and take it easy during our 2-night, 3-day stay. Also, there is a river very close by where children can play and enjoy nature, so both adults and kids never got bored. It’s an Accommodation we would love to stay at again. Thank you very much.

In these times, it offers outstanding value for money at this price despite being close to the station. The breakfast was delicious and very satisfying.

These days, it’s rare to find a meal included at this price elsewhere. I stay here whenever I’m using Fukuoka Airport. The free parking is also a huge help. I’ll definitely stay again.

The price is low, and it’s the same rate even on weekends and holidays. Breakfast is included at this price. I wouldn’t call it the best breakfast, but for what you pay, it’s more than acceptable with no complaints. Personally, there wasn’t an outlet near the pillow area, so it might have been difficult to lie in bed and use my phone while charging. The Room and shower room were thoroughly cleaned and very tidy. If the parking lot on the Hotel grounds is full, you’ll be directed to another parking lot about a 2–3 minute walk away. That could be inconvenient in the rain.

Perfect for business accommodation. Stayed during New Year's as a special occasion, but the meals were disappointing, with dishes that weren't warm. The bath was great.

The emergency hospital next door meant the sound of ambulance sirens was a bit noticeable, but the Room and service were excellent. Breakfast featured bakery bread, which was affordable, delicious, and very satisfying. However, the Room only had a toothbrush and body sponge as amenities. I initially thought it was simplified, but later noticed additional amenities placed next to the front desk at checkout. A mention during check-in would have been appreciated.

The bath was very relaxing, and the staff were wonderful. It was a great time staying at a Ryokan that felt like the kind I used to stay at long ago. Thank you!

Although it’s an older Hotel, it was clean and I was satisfied. The sofa was old and covered, but it was leather and had a nice character. There didn’t seem to be any restaurants nearby, so I had dinner at the restaurant in the Hotel; both the Japanese and Chinese dishes were delicious.

I have no complaints about any of the points mentioned in the review categories. I truly had a wonderful holiday. If I had to mention one drawback, it would be access to the main tourist spots, but that distance is also what creates the special, out-of-the-ordinary feel—so it’s not really a complaint. The Room was beautifully designed for relaxing, and I was able to spend my time there in complete comfort. All of the staff were genuinely pleasant and welcoming, and I enjoyed my stay very much. Above all, the free-flowing Onsen bath in the Room was outstanding. I love soaking in an Onsen, so it was incredibly relaxing. With traditional Accommodations like this, I often worry about the internet connection, but this time it was very stable. I could use streaming services without any issues. Since this was a Multiple Night Stay, they thoughtfully arranged things so that some menu items wouldn’t overlap. Of course, everything was delicious. The Arita-yaki tableware was also beautiful. It’s not somewhere I can visit often, but I would definitely like to stay here again when I next visit Fukuoka.

From the moment we arrived, everyone greeted us with smiles and the service was very pleasant. However, only the two young female staff members at the evening BBQ area seemed to be working in a very unmotivated way. While everyone else provided great service with a smile, that was disappointing. Also, the bath drain in the Room did not work very well. Still, the food was delicious and the Facility was clean, so overall we were satisfied.

This is a classic, old-fashioned Business Hotel, but the price is reasonable and the Room is clean, so there’s nothing to complain about. It was also great that it’s close to the station.

We chose this Accommodation because it has a play area for young children. We were satisfied with the Room, Onsen, and more, but the only drawback was that our Room did not have a bath or shower (I’m not sure if this was only the Room we stayed in). I wonder whether other Rooms had one.

Stayed on the day of Onisube. It was close to Dazaifu Tenmangu, and it was nice to see the people participating in the ritual from the room. (I think the starting point was right in front of the hotel) Wi-Fi was connected, and I had no problems as I referred to other people's comments.

It’s very close to JR Futsukaichi Station, so you can walk there even with luggage such as a suitcase. A flashy sign that looks like an imitation of Thomas is the landmark. The staff member who assisted us at check-in was also a foreigner, and was very polite. The Room feels like a studio apartment. There is a shoe cabinet, a washing machine, and the toilet is separate; the bathroom is a unit bath. Everything was very clean and well maintained. The closet is also large. There’s a refrigerator, microwave, gas stove, and sink, so you can cook if you want. Detergent for both laundry and dishwashing is provided—please feel free to use it. The bed is a queen-size low bed. The mattress was as soft as a waterbed; if you like soft mattresses it’s great, but if you prefer something firmer it might hurt your lower back. There are mirrors in the bathroom or on the closet—two full-length mirrors—so when doing your hair or makeup (especially using a hair iron), there wasn’t an outlet nearby and there was no extension cord, which made it a bit difficult to style my hair right at the limit of the cord length. An outlet near the mirror would be convenient (though outlets near water may be unsafe). It’s inexpensive, clean, and convenient with a convenience store nearby. I’d like to stay again.

I wanted to visit Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine and was looking for an affordable place to stay nearby when I found this Hotel. For the Onsen and breakfast, I used their affiliated property close by, Ivy Hotel Chikushino. I was able to enjoy Futsukaichi Onsen, and the meals were delicious as well. The front desk staff were very helpful, and thanks to their recommendation, I went to the izakaya “Gon (Hiko),” where the grilled yam on an iron plate and the grilled chicken on an iron plate were excellent—I was very satisfied. To get to Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine, you need to walk 21 minutes to Nishitetsu Futsukaichi Station, so if you have difficulty walking, it’s better to use a taxi or bus.

The rates are reasonable, and I stay here on every business trip. Thank you as always.

The staff were kind and helpful. Driving up the narrow mountain road in a rental car in the dark late at night was a bit unsettling. It’s better to arrive while it’s still light.
