Fukuoka|Stress-Relief Hotel Next to the Station Nishitetsu Croom with Hot Springs and Massages, Enjoy Sashimi for Breakfast.
Located just a three-minute walk from Hakata Station and the bus station, this is my second stay at Nishitetsu Croom, which can be described as a super stress-relief hotel.
The lobby is decorated with seasonal themes for the Hinamatsuri and Sakura festivals, with comfortable chairs and red umbrellas in the rest area exuding a strong Japanese style. Why is it stress-relieving? The first floor features a large bathhouse with indoor and semi-open-air baths, plus a sauna. After a day of sightseeing, you can soak in the bath and sweat it out. There is also a direct entrance to a convenience store on the first floor, making it easy to grab a late-night snack or a drink. The rooms are equipped with massage chair pads, so after soaking in the hot springs, you can return to your room for a massage and then fall into a deep sleep.
The breakfast is also worth praising. The restaurant, which operates as an izakaya during business hours, serves a rich breakfast for guests in the morning. You can enjoy the season's fattest yellowtail sashimi and two types of grilled fish to your heart's content, along with scrambled eggs, ham, fresh salad, Japanese-style stewed dishes, Chikuzen-ni, Korean porridge, and unlimited mentaiko.
Interestingly, locals love to eat curry for breakfast. If you wake up early, you can even enjoy another soak in the hot springs before indulging in a delicious breakfast.
