Shingu Vacation Packages

I’ve been traveling throughout Japan and Asia for a while now, and found that this hotel charged WAY more for laundry than others I’ve been to. Typically I spend ¥100/¥100 for wash and dry, here it was ¥400/¥200 for the exact laundry machines. That’s more than double the cost (definitely milking the amenities). Also, the day of check out I had housekeeping knock on the door at 9am even when I had the do not disturb on the door and check out was 11am. Another thing I didn’t like was they don’t allow you to eat outside food in the lounge/dining area. I bought a bagel as I didn’t get the breakfast package because it’s too early for my liking. But I was told not to have food in the lounge/breakfast area where there was only one other person. FYI, I was having coffee from their free coffee area (so ok to drink but not eat outside food in an empty space). I know Japan has rules but this is just a made up one by a hotel that is a bit ridiculous, because I wasn’t going to use plates or cause them to clean. In any case, the last day really tainted my stay. Location is a little further than I had wanted to be from the Peace park by foot (25 mins), but given I was only there for 4 days it was ok.

Excellent location with subways nearby and a short walk to the Hakata station. Nearby malls, convenience stores and restaurants add to the appeal and a famous bakery is just opposite the hotel. The onsen is acceptable but I find the number of washing machines/dryer a bit lacking leading to long wait to do laundry. In room aircon takes a while to cool the room. What I find annoying is that the light switches in the room completing turn off everything even though there is a switch for the down light next to the bedside table. We can’t even leave the bathroom light on. Aside from these minor issues it was a good stay .

Superbe endroit, bien situé et avec tout qu'on avait besoin a porté de main. J'ai beaucoup apprécié l'expérience du bain public.

Incredibly clean and well equipped, convenient location and easy checkin

Everything was good

Grest location. Room is a little tight, Furniture a little dated. Delicious breakfast, close to super markets, transportation, restaurants. Great view of the square.
