Shizutetsu Hotel Prezio Hakataekimae

The amenities of the hotel were fully available right at the counter. More or less grab as much as you need. And the rooms, while small, do come with a luxurious Japanese bath. And that adds points for me. I find the location of hotel to be top notch. It's strategically positioned to be close to JR Hakata as well as other properties that directly connect to the station.

This has to do specifically with the room I stayed in: 1105. The hotels proximity to the tracks may make sleeping a daunting task. Lots of trains clanging away in the background. Moreover, the smoke detectors light is angled directly at the bed, right in the eyes. If you are sensitive to light and sound, this room is not for you.

Amazing view from the window, overlooking the multi-track approach to Hakata station. Great variety of train passing regularly. Because of how the station and depots are located, you will see the Shinkansen on both Kyushu and Sanyo lines; as well as most standard gauge trains. This includes services such as Mizuho, Nozomi, Sakura, Hikari, Tsubame, but also Relay-Kamome, Midori Express, Ten Huis Bosh, Sonic, Yufuin no Mori, and many others. These run from around 4am to around 12am, however, more exotic train sets only run just a few times a day, so make sure to check the timetable to catch them. Don't expect any trains zooming by at high speed, though, they slow down significantly for junctions before the station. In this area, street lights illuminate the track at night too, so you can clearly see the freight trains that occasionally pass at night. Some rooms overlook the track, while others face the other direction; we requested a train-side room in advance, and the staff kindly fulfilled our request. The window is wide enough to see around 200-250m of the track, more than enough to enjoy the trains. The hotel appears to have installed an extra layer of windows to further isolate the noise from passing trains, which works great. If you seal all windows correctly, there is barely any noise to be heard, and it never disrupted our sleep throughout our two-week stay. The room was a bit tight, however, it was equipped with a VERY spacious Japanese-style bathroom (large bath + huge shower in one watertight room). Desk space was limited, but the bathroom features a large table with lots of shelves, which can be used to store or arrange your things. Breakfast was tasty and offered a moderate variety of food. The staff was kind and assisted us with minor requests without any issues. 5 minutes 30 seconds walk to Hakata station.

Breakfast choice got a bit boring after 2 weeks, but honestly, it's not going to be a problem if you stay for less than than.

The location is perfect. Close to Hakata station, which is one of the main hubs in the city. And it location is easy to find, by Google map. Check-in was very smooth and fast, and the night employee went through all the necessary information for checking in. The hotel provides all one needed from amenities til pajamas. Japanese style breakfast.

If you are a light sleeper, this hotel might not be for you. There is a train track right in front of the hotel, and it runs til 12 at night and starts at 5 am, the next day. The breakfast menu is limited, and for someone who is staying long and is on vacation, it might be a little bit boring.

Very good location. Just 5 minute walk to Hakata Station and there’s a 7Eleven and Family Mart nearby. Since it is near the airport, we conveniently took a cab to and from Fukuouka International Airport. Cost us less than 2,000 Yen only. Exceptionally clean too! They change towels everyday. No problem with daily housekeeping too. Highly recommended.

The hotel was located in close proximity to the Hakata station enabling easy access to the transport hub, which was our primary reason for selecting this accommodation. The surrounding area also provided plenty of restaurants for meal options. Our room was small, but very clean, however the bathroom, shower and toilet amenities were comparatively larger. Overall, the facilities were of a really good standard.

Due to the small size of the actual room, we stored one of our suitcases in the generous shower.

Staff spoke good English, breakfast buffet menu was repetitive (I stayed for four nights) but was really filling so not much complaints there. Room was of typical size but was very functional, I placed a 'do not disturb' sign by my door my whole stay, and they never forgot to give a new set of towels and bottled water everyday.

5-minute walk to one of the further entrances of Hakata station, might be a problem if you have many luggages.

the breakfast buffet was superb. (they served salads, soups, curry, rice, viands such as eggs, sausage, pasta, coffee, cereal, tea, dessert was matcha mochi and brownies, drinks were orange juice, matcha, kale smoothie) it did saved us some bucks having able to eat well in the morning. the room was nice, especially the bathroom was spacious. the coffee corner available at the lobby was also exceptional. location wise its a 5 mins walk going to the train station and there were convenient stores nearby. room was quite small but manageable, housekeeping is nice in days we didnt want our room cleaned, they would leave a bag of fresh towels, bath mats and coffee plus the daily bottled water allowance. they also have water dispenser at the lobby along with the amenities you are free to get (ex. hair net, bath salts, razors, toothbrush, etc) Overall, we recommend staying here.

room was quiet however can still hear the train. for me it was relaxing to hear, however for some people like my parents they were not. Although the breakfast buffet was nice, menu did not change much at all. for us who stayed for 4 days, it was nice at first but a mix would be nice too.

The hotel is a 5-minute walk from the station. Very convenient, right in front of the train tracks. Check in is on the first floor and there are amenities there. The staff was very friendly. The room was normal, the coffee was very good, the bathroom with shower and toilet very good and comfortable. The price was great so no room for complaints. Air purifier and yukata included.

It would be nice if the TV remote control had a mark to know where to press when you just want to watch TV. Some hairs in the bathroom.

I loved the size of the room and the bathroom was by far the biggest bathrooms I've seen in a hotel in Japan. It was so wonderfully spacious that me and my partner were in awe and took baths everyday. Absolutely loved this hotel and would recommend it to anyone.

Everything was wonderful! However if you're looking to park your car, they have limited parking so keep that in mind!

Great hotel base in Fukuoka, clean & comfort, great staff, complimentary 2 mineral water each day, laundry, ice and vending machines provided. Just a bit walk 3 blocks from Hakata station, anyway great exercise everyday.
