If you're walking above ground from Hakata Subway Station, take Exit West 12. If you're using the underground shopping area, take the elevator to B1 and then switch to the hotel's elevator.
The lobby is quite grand, and the front desk service was good; they arranged a room for me on the top floor (14th floor). For a Japanese hotel, the room size was very good. I could open two 26-inch suitcases on the floor. There were plenty of outlets in the room, but no USB charging ports, so make sure to bring your two-prong adapters 🔌.
The hotel is connected to an underground passage. Turning left leads to Gion Station, and turning right leads to Hakata Station. Just outside the hotel entrance, to the right, there's a large 7-Eleven, which is very convenient for grabbing snacks at night.
Japan now has an accommodation tax, which will be collected upon checkout.
