I had a mixed experience at Fukuoka Sunpalace Hotel. On one hand, the staff was incredibly sweet and helpful, making my family feel at ease. The room, while small, felt spacious enough for our needs. On the other hand, the location is a bit distant from major attractions, and some aspects like breakfast could be improved. Overall, it was decent value for money, especially for its proximity to Hakata Port.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On one hand, the room was surprisingly spacious for its size, and the staff did a wonderful job of trying to communicate with my family. On the other hand, the dining options were severely lacking, and the location is a bit far from more vibrant areas. Overall, I appreciate the effort from the staff, but the limited breakfast and connectivity issues dampened my stay.

The Fukuoka Sunpalace Hotel offers a surprising blend of comfort and convenience, especially for those looking to catch a ferry to Korea. The rooms are compact yet surprisingly spacious, and the staff goes out of their way to assist guests. However, the dining options are somewhat limited, and communication can be challenging for non-Japanese speakers. Overall, it provides good value for money, particularly for its proximity to the port and entertainment venue.
