Top 10 Toc Toc Hotels

I've been to Fukuoka multiple times and previously stayed at other establishments that simply cannot match the Ritz. Got a king room for my honeymoon. Really appreciate Sanjay and rest of staff making us feel very appreciated from check-in until departure. The level of attentiveness was impressive, and people here speak good English. Location is quite good, close to metro/bus stops, Ohori park,and plenty of eateries/shopping/yatai's. Room is as modern as you'd expect. Bed and bathroom are very comfortable - other hotels are going to struggle to match this level of sophistication. I really appreciated the amount of space vs the typical Japanese hotel. Great amount of amenities. Minor suggestions for improvement - in-room snacks - we got the impression that several of the snacks were complimentary. After we checked out, we discovered that they were not, an unpleasant surprise. Some better communication here would be valuable. Late check out - as an Elite member at check-in we were told that late check out would be offered. However, on the day of I discovered that I still had to call to ask for late check out, and then I had to wait a bit until they called back to confirm. The small details matter in delivering a flawless experience. Still, these are relatively minor things and overall we were very satisfied with our stay. On our next stay to lovely Fukuoka we'd definitely only stay here. Book it, you won't regret it.

It does seem that With The Style Fukuoka (henceforth referred to as ”WTS”) draws inspiration from the ”W” chain of hotels, due to the property catering to a younger, hipper demographic. It's an intimate property with just 16 rooms total, although it seems much more lively than that due to the restaurants and bar being accessible to non-staying guests (which makes this more of a hotel than a ryokan for sure.) The lighting is on the dark side, and the common areas have music piped in, and staff members are generally in their 20s and 30s. Everyone is all smiles and eager to please, although at times there can be mistakes in their order taking (at the restaurant), and in their knowledge of the local area (or lack thereof.) Otherwise, it's a pleasant place to pass the time if you're in Fukuoka. It's tucked away in a secluded area - it's not far away from the center, although it's not exactly within walking distance. The property has a garden in the center, which serves as a communal area for drinking, dining and socializing. We dined in Cotton, WTS's Italian Restaurant, which was decent but not amazing. We also had Japanese breakfast in the morning, which was also adequate but it took way too long for us to be served. We stayed in one of their Suite rooms, which - at 53 square meters - is generously sized compared to standard rooms but merely acceptable by high-end Suite standards. If you're looking for massive rooms, WTS does not have any, so please keep that in mind. The room itself was reasonably well maintained, although we would suggest they update some of the technologies and amenities, especially given their target customer. For instance, the curtains were of the old fashioned, pull-the-string variety - they really should make it all electronic with black-out capabilities. The room key is also a classic... key. How about something cooler, like face or eye recognition, if you're going after the younger clientele? Finally, we were surprised at the WiFi speeds. While it was usable, it was not exactly lightning fast - a no-no for a big city luxury hotel. On the plus side, they were generous with the free minibar offerings, and the noise insulation appeared to be pretty good.. we slept quite well here. With its hipster vibe catering to the young, fashionable and rich, it's definitely not for everyone. And as a hotel, it's a decent but not great value. Will we choose to stay here again? Possibly, but not until we've tried some of the other options in Fukuoka first.

The hotel is Amazing! All staffs are very nice! There was a balcony, facing the sea, with no obstructions in the view. There are automatic bathtubs with a view of the ocean. The rooms are huge. It's worth.

The environment is very comfortable and the food is surprisingly delicious. It is a place worth visiting. There are many things you can borrow, and there are also vinyl records that you can choose to play at your own pace. However, there was only a light rain for a few minutes at night, which already made a noticeable rattling sound on the tent. It would be very troublesome if it was a rainy day, and there was a chance of getting wet after taking a shower, so luckily the weather was good and I spent a pleasant night.
