HOTEL CULTIA 太宰府

Although the Room is a bit far from the front desk, it had everything we needed, and it was great to be able to relax without worrying even if our small children got excited. The warm hospitality at check-in was also wonderful. Our child got a little fussy during the meal, but your thoughtful care really helped us. Thank you very much!

When I planned a short trip somewhere after meeting up with a friend coming from far away in Fukuoka, I saw this hotel’s website and decided immediately. It is a beautiful historic building. Walking along the wooden corridors with shoes on feels both too precious and yet convenient. This was originally the residence of a distinguished family from the Edo or Meiji period, renovated into a hotel and restaurant; while preserving tradition, the rooms are modern and comfortable, with hinoki-wood baths.Saying it’s a 2-minute walk to Tenmangu Shrine is no exaggeration. With the gates opening at 6:30 a.m., we went to pray, then after breakfast we also received a purification blessing from a Shinto priest starting at 8:30. The day before, we took our time at Kyushu National Museum until evening. The museum is also a beautiful building—you go up on an incredibly long escalator. A must-see.Meeting my friend in Dazaifu was truly wonderful. Thank you very much.
