Futsukaichi Hot Spring - Daimaru Besso

The wonderful memories, the amazing view, and the grateful actions of the staff made this trip an overall enjoyable one.

It's a great place to experience a ryokan near Fukuoka. The breakfast is also small.

First of all, its location just over thirty minutes from Fukuoka Airport is a plus. As a historic ryokan, it will appeal to those who appreciate old things. Above all, I felt that each and every staff member was professional, and their service wasn't just friendly; it was genuinely heartfelt. I'd love to visit again with my parents.

I visited in early April for a trip with 3 siblings. Based on my experience staying at a ryokan in Beppu and Chiba a couple of times, (Advantages) 1. The room is very spacious. - More than twice as large as other ryokans. It is spacious enough for up to 6 people to sleep comfortably. 2. It is clean. - The room is clean, and the water quality of the public bath is checked and recorded periodically. 3. The staff is very friendly. - Most Japanese hospitality workers are friendly, but this place is especially friendly. - I wanted to rent a yukata near Dazaifu on the weekend, so I asked them to recommend a company, and they directly looked for a company and helped me make a reservation (it was fully booked online). - The Korean team leader (Team Leader Lee Chang-gyu) was there, so they were very friendly and spoke to me in Korean. 4. Pregnant women-friendly meal provided - When reserving the kaiseki, I informed them that there was a pregnant woman in the group, and they prepared a separate meal for pregnant women (cooked instead of raw) 5. The garden is beautiful - It is not very large, but it is a good size for a quick walk (Cons) 1. Even if you get off at the nearest station, you have to drag your suitcase for about 10 minutes (Taxi is recommended, it doesn't take long) 2. There is no open-air bath, but if you open the large window of the public bath, you can enjoy the atmosphere of an open-air bath to some extent. (Other) There is an antique furniture shop nearby, and the furniture is so old-fashioned and beautiful that it was nice to look around quietly.

Located near Hakata on the 3rd and 4th day of the trip, it's a perfect location for a stopover, including a ryokan. The Japanese garden ryokan (with a large bath and private bathroom) surrounded by modern buildings was unique. The one-on-one service, which covered any shortcomings, including check-in, was also excellent. I regret staying only one night.
