A sleek, adults-only newcomer that opened in April 2025 on the upper floors of the Hulic Square building in Tenjin — Fukuoka's shopping and dining heart. An elevator runs from Tenjin Station's Exit 5 straight up to the 19th-floor lobby, where a terrace looks out over the city. Rooms are contemporary and comfortably sized for Japan, with Simmons beds and Nespresso machines as standard. A guest-only lounge on the 18th floor serves complimentary drinks and snacks. Best suited to couples and solo travellers wanting polish and a fuss-free urban base.
