Yakataishi Hotels

"It was my first time checking into a hotel without staff on site. The hotel will send you an email with an entry code to get into the lobby. Once inside, there's a tablet you use to check in. After you snap a photo of your passport, you get connected to the hotel staff via video call to verify your identity. Then you will get your room code on the screen. Take a picture of your room code with your phone. The hotel is very roomy and very close to the station. "

"Very kind and the ryokan was so cute"

"I was a little wary staying at a shipping container hotel, but I was blown away by this place. Really everything was perfect about it. The room was spotless and had all the amenities you could need.The staff were very friendly and helpful, and were prepared to deal with a language barrier. It even has laundry and free light meals that were quite good! And all for a great price. Next time I'm in Karatsu this will he my go-to."

"Merci à tous pour l’accueil, la propreté, la chambre était vaste, le petit déjeuner était excellent, Konod nous a accueilli tous les jours avec le sourire. Nous remercions toute l’équipe. Il y a des tas de belles choses à voir à Karatsu. Jacqueline et Françoise "

"房間簇新又整潔，景觀開揚，氣氛舒適 大堂佈置優雅 附免費泊車、免費飲料 早餐使用當地物產，新鮮美味 附近較少照明，若在晚上駕車前來要多加注意 P2停車場有部份車位屬於另一棟大廈，但指示不太清晰"

"Amazing place, beautiful and very central, with friendly staff. Comfortable rooms. "

"this place is so chill and my child love it"

"Room was fantastic and very spacious offering amenities like kitchen, dining table, bathtub, washer etc. It also had private rooftop access with jacuzzi overlooking the ocean (bear in mind there is no swimming pool). I personally loved the breakfast which was grilled salmon rice, beef sukiyaki, pork soup etc. but that was offered as the default option daily. Food in the restaurant was very competent too - offering a mix of Japanese & Western dishes like pasta and pizza, beers on tap etc. Just a 5min walk to the Couples Shrine and overall the highlight of our family trip to Fukuoka. Free parking available on the site."

"The checkin process was super simple. They have a tablet in the unit that you use to communicate to their agents. The agents spoke English which made everything that much easier. They answer the tablet everytime and quickly. Wish they had a bathroom upstairs."
