Experience of the stay
This time, I used HafH to arrive at lyf Tenjin Fukuoka, located in the Chuo Ward of Fukuoka City.
lyf Tenjin Fukuoka is a new hotel that opened in June 2021 and is the first hotel in Japan under the lyf brand by Ascott Group, based in Singapore.
It’s a hotel that promotes co-living and is filled with excitement.
It's located about a 10-minute walk from Tenjin Subway Station, so if you don’t want to walk, taking a taxi from the station may be a good idea.
The entire building is not a hotel; only floors 3 to 8 are the lyf Tenjin Fukuoka, and other floors house different tenants.
When I visited, I thought the bustling customers on the 1st floor were hotel guests, but it turns out that the 1st floor is a wine bar unrelated to the hotel.
Be careful not to confuse the hotel entrance with the entrance to the shop on the 1st floor.
Take the elevator to the 3rd floor, where you will find staff to inform them of your accommodation.
Check-in is done by scanning a QR code on your smartphone and entering the required information. It might be a bit tricky for those unfamiliar, but the staff will support you with how to use it.
The lounge area on the 3rd floor has a colorful and pleasant atmosphere. The whole decor is original to lyf Tenjin Fukuoka, brimming with its own unique perspective.
The room I stayed in was a Studio Double. It’s not very spacious, but the decor and indirect lighting create a pleasant and comfortable atmosphere. The mugs provided are cute and original to lyf Tenjin Fukuoka.
There was a notice placed with the kettle written in Hakata dialect, adding to the local vibe.
Since this is not a Japanese company hotel, it only has a shower, with no bathtub. The shower can switch between a handheld shower and a rain shower.
There’s a fairly spacious space near the bed for small items, and having outlets and USB ports on either side is convenient.
Being a foreign-affiliated hotel from Singapore, lyf Tenjin Fukuoka has a unique atmosphere that you won’t find in Japanese hotels. The pop and cute decor makes it a fun place to be.
I highly recommend this hotel for those looking for a stylish place near Tenjin.
Experiences during the trip
I visited Canal City Hakata for the first time in a while. The fountain was nostalgic. It hasn’t changed much in 20 years.
Since I was traveling, I didn’t do any shopping, but if you’re looking to eat, there are many restaurants in Canal City Hakata worth trying.
At night, I went to 'Daiho Ramen,' a famous ramen place in Fukuoka. You can’t come to Fukuoka and not try Hakata tonkotsu ramen, right? It was really delicious.Get Extra Bonus Coins! Sign up with this user's referral code now!
