Stay here: Grand Hyatt Fukuoka review

What’s the deal?

The Grand Hyatt Fukuoka stands at the heart of Fukuoka’s Hakata district, seamlessly connected to the Canal City Hakata complex yet just a 15-minute drive from both Fukuoka Airport and Fukuoka Tenjin Station. 

The hotel dates back nearly 30 years but continues to evolve and exceed expectations. The Grand Club Lounge, reopened last October, offers an elegant escape for guests staying in Grand Club rooms and suites with a breakfast buffet, all-day light bites and drinks. The work area is perfect for taking calls or polishing a presentation, while a spacious outdoor garden terrace creates a sanctuary-like feel to contrast with the city’s non-stop energy.

Why stay?

Whether you’re a keen shopper or time-pressed business traveller, you’ll love the hotel’s location, amenities and excellent standard of hospitality. Guestrooms are adorned with a classic wood-toned decor, balancing warmth and luxury with an understated Japanese sensibility. The soaking tub in every room is a welcome sight after whatever your day’s activities hold.

Don’t miss

For a relaxing evening, head to Bar Fizz in the hotel lobby. Here, you can unwind with a cocktail while enjoying live music performances, all against the backdrop of the mesmerising Canal City Hakata fountain show, which takes place every 30 minutes from 6pm-10pm.
