3-Sterne-Hotels in Kita Kyushu

1. Very spacious room for this price point to be honest. Could be because it's not a major city... 2. Kitchen equipment like induction cooker and pot and bowls and utensils were provided! Makes it possible to cook your own meals (or even just Maggie mee) fridge was very big so can buy drinks to store 3. Location was alright. Located along small alley but very near main road leading to shopping street and Kokura station. 4. Aircon and heater worked well. Great for winter weather 5. Bathroom ventilator was very strong. To the extent that it feels very cold after taking a shower. We tried closing the bathroom door at night and it was literally like a freezer in the morning when we open it. But also because of the ventilator, our clothes dried fast indoors 🥶 6. Now to the pain points. First got to be the facility management and check in check out process. This property does auto check in meaning there is no physical staff to handle your check in check out throughout. There is no receptionist at all. I made my booking 2- 3 hours prior to arriving at property. At the front door we were prompted to input entry passcode which we had no idea what it was (it's not the reservation number provided by the booking partner like Agoda or trip.com) tried to contact both the hotel helpline (there was a Jp phone number at the entrance but that's all, no other info whatsoever) and also escalated to Agoda (as I made my booking through Agoda for first nights) but no ans. In the end we had to enter property when someone unlocked the front entrance using her own passcode before we could speak to the helpdesk through the tablets. So it turns out that they claim most travellers would make their reservation at least a day prior to arrival, which was why system didn't capture my booking (yet ironically they allowed booking for same day check in .... When they clearly cannot manage the whole process) shouldn't there be more effort being put in to monitor for same day booking so the traveller doesn't get stuck at the front entrance especially in winter weather? We had to sit at the park nearby while trying to contact the helpdkesks but couldn't get through till the end...... The whole check in process was rather manual, basically you enter the info as prompted on screen then video call the helpline agent to verify before you'll get your passcode to your room. (All through tablet) Security seems alright if you're ok with the idea of using a keypad lock instead of having a physical room card? I guess customers just have to always make sure no one is looking when entering the passcode at the front door. Btw same passcode is used to enter hotel front entrance and for your room lock. All in all the biggest issue we found was the check in check out process. Overall stay was above average.

I am more than satisfied for my two-night stay at Hotel LiVEMAX Kokura. Not only does it have an excellent location (right next to Kokura Station), it is equipped with a microwave in each individual room. The room is clean, spacious, and bright. I cannot ask for more as it is truly a value for money hotel. If I ever visit Japan again, I will definitely put Hotel LiVEMAX first on my list.

Dieses Mal blieb ich drei Nächte im Hauptgebäude und konnte diese bequem verbringen, ohne irgendwelche Unannehmlichkeiten zu verspüren. Die Klimaanlage war erstickend, weil ich die Temperatur nicht einstellen konnte, aber ich habe mich wohl gefühlt, obwohl ich hitzeempfindlich bin. Wir werden Sie wieder in Anspruch nehmen.

The hotel is close to the Kokura station, on the north side which is not as busy as the south side. The room is perfect for a solo traveller, might be tight for 2 people. My room overlooked a train track and you can see the train pass by. It's not noisy though. Lots of comic books available to borrow to your room (register at receptionist) for when the weather is bad. And free breakfast and dinner with rice, curry, tea, coffee and juice. Staff spoke little English but they have printed information available in English to explain the facilities, rules and how things work.

Die Unterkunft war sauber und perfekt für Alleinreisende. Ich blieb mehrere Nächte und konnte schnell frühstücken. Die Lage war außerdem praktisch: nur fünf Gehminuten vom Bahnhof Kokura entfernt. Direkt gegenüber gab es einen 7-Eleven-Supermarkt, was sehr praktisch war. Das Personal war freundlich und ich hatte einen angenehmen Aufenthalt für zwei Nächte und drei Tage.

微笑酒店，位置非常好，就在商店街裏面，從車站行過去，也需要5分鐘左右，距離小倉城也只需要10分鐘的路，酒店的設施非常之新，清潔程度有非常之好，工作人員有禮貌

Sehr gut, weil es nahe der Station und reich an Einrichtungen ist. Ich bin sehr dankbar, dass ich das gemütliche Brot essen kann und es ist sehr lecker! Die Speiserei am Morgen ist sehr beliebt, und es ist weg, wenn ich gehe, also muss ich das nächste Mal essen.

Es ist ein Entspannungsplatz. Kein Komfortladen in der Nähe. Suggestion, Lebensmittel zu kaufen, bevor Sie dort fahren. Die Landschaft ist großartig. Und der heiße Frühling ist cool. Das Essen ist auch großartig.

Despite the language barrier, the front desk staff were very friendly & helpful. The foods were very tasty, delicious with very reasonable price. The breakfast is included but the quality is second to none, to my knowledge based on my own Japan travel experience. Thumbs up for the staff & strongly recommended for anyone visiting Mojiko to stay & enjoy.

The hotel is at a prime location, close to the Kokura station, shopping malls, Kokura Castle, Tanga market, streets of bars…and there are two convenient stores downstairs so you don’t need to worry about getting hungry at midnight. The price is reasonable and the facilities are sufficient. The fact that staff still don’t speak much English makes it hard to be internationally welcoming.
