KOKO HOTEL Hakata Shinkansenguchi

The location was excellent. Subway Exit 6 was a short walk away, and the airport bus stop was on the same side of the station. This made getting around and travelling to the airport very convenient.

The room was small. Each day, the “Welcome” bath mat was placed in the same bag as the towels. I would have preferred the bath mat to be packed separately for hygiene. There was also fallen yellow fruit on the pavement near the entrance that gave off an unpleasant smell during our stay, although I understand this was outside the hotel’s control.

This place is located nearer to the quieter side of Hakata Station which is good because you do not need to deal with the mad rush of people during peak hours. There are combinis located nearby should you need a quick snack and emergency supplies, Drug Mori opposite is tax free and there are a few food options in the area. The public bath is enough for a handful of people but gets crowded in the evening. The simple breakfast offered are small bakes and pastries with drinks and the cost has already been included in the cost of the room. The room can be a little dark because of the location of the hotel - the windows face another side of the building.

Easy to find, very convenient, near to Hakata station and the bus station when you are going on tour. The breakfast is simple but free coffee all day. Pharmacy, convenience store and coffee shop are just opposite the hotel. You can do quick shopping in the malls connecting to Halata station.

Lobby and light breakfast Location is very good

Size of room and English communication of hotel staff is below my expectation
