TOP5 Most Expensive Hotels and Ryokans in Fukuoka
Fukuoka City is a regional city, so there are no ultra-luxury hotels rated as 5-star hotels. However, there are some hotels and ryokans that, while not as luxurious as 5-star hotels in Tokyo or Osaka, offer a high level of satisfaction. If you are looking for the most expensive hotels or ryokans in Fukuoka prefecture, we would recommend the following properties.
Especially recommended is Iki Retreat Kairi Murakami by Onko Chishin and Akizuki Spa Ryokan Seiryuan. The former is located on Nagasaki Prefecture’s Iki Island, but is easier to reach from Hakata Port in Fukuoka City. From Hakata port, the trip takes about one hour. The latter is about two hours from Hakata Station, but it is a luxury ryokan worth staying at. There are only 6 rooms in total at this ryokan, so you will be lucky if you get one.
