RIHGA Royal Hotel Kokura

Great Location in Kokur. Near the rail station with perfect facilities. Servals shopping centre near the hotel, so poor we had a delayed flight when we are here. Most of the staff are very friendly and helpful, but it also seems one or two individuals are not.

Reception at 4 pm was slow and it was necessary for several guests to wait for the two reception people even though they had three other people greeting guests. The nearby Shinkansen station provides easy access to the hotel which is an easy 5-10 minutes walk. Wifi worked well and the air conditioning was good especially in the cold weather. Rooms are a good size and in good condition with above average views. House keeping was also good, though guests need to request daily services by placing a card on the room door otherwise daily service is not provided. The four lifts provided an efficient service. I didn’t have breakfast on this occasion but have had it in the past and it’s of a good quality and high standard. The staff are lovely and caring. The location is good being near the main Shinkansen station. Beyond the station there are shopping centres and street malls with a variety of restaurants and shops to meet most people’s needs. There are also many nearby restaurants that should suit most people’s cuisine, budget and type of food. Buses and subway stations are nearby and provide access to various parts of the city. There are several attractions within 30-60 minutes of the hotel such as temples and museums. Overall a pleasant stay and happy to visit again.

We booked one night in this hotel. The room size is as stated , very spacious with a beautiful view of the city, the room can even sleep for 3 persons. Toilet is clean although it’s an old style and design with a bathtub. Breakfast have western and Japanese food , eggs have a few ways to cook and will deliver to your table after order. Service is good. This hotel is next to the train station. A convenience store is just located in the middle of passage connecting to the hotel and station. Free parking is available in the hotel, which is very convenience for guests with cars.

Great view with great service. It was a nice place to relax 🤗

The location is right next to the train station and there is a Family Mart and a Lawson nearby. The room is comfortable and spacious for families. Breakfast spread was also quite delicious with a mix of traditional Japanese foods and western fare. However, do take note that while the hotel provides wheelchairs, wheelchairs cannot be used outside of hotel compounds.
