Japanese Ryokan Kashima Honkan

Fukuoka

All staff are so kind! When I borrowed a hairdryer from the front, they always smiled and did so quickly. 
The room is large and beautiful enough to stay. It will make you move.
You are able to wear Japanese traditional clothing. It will give you valuable experience, of course, it will cost you no money.
That’s why, I recommend this hotel to you strongly!

今回はありがとうございます。

You will see Japanese traditional architecture!!

Old Ryokan (it is one of the oldest Ryokan in the city) but well placed and authentic with 2 onsen. The rooms are quite large with simple, but functional comfort.

For a real experience

I loved that ryokan, clean and comfortable, coffee and tea in the open, onsen for men, sdb and shower for women, spacious rooms and luxurious garden! I highly recommend!

That's great.

This is my first ryokan experience where it was less than $100 a night. You still get the large rooms, probably some of the largest rooms I have seen in Japanese hotels, complete with yukata and futon. The walls have cracks and the whole place has an old-home feel to it, but I think it's charm more than anything else.

The only downside is that this old building has paper-thin walls. I could hear the other guests laughing late into the night and footsteps above my room. If you are staying, please be considerate of the other guests and keep quiet at night. 

For the budget you're paying, you get friendly staff who were very helpful and nice towards me as well as free coffee, tea and water out front before entry. The shower and bath areas have both private showers and the communal option. I enjoyed my 3 night stay here and would love to come back again. The room size really impressed me.

Traditional Low-Budget Ryokan

This ryokan was on the poor side of dilapidated.

Their onsen was a large shared bath without even basic decoration. My partner says one of the women in her onsen was a heavily tattoed Japanese woman. Tattoos are the province of yakuza, so I can only assume that this ryokan is happy with them.

The air conditioning was only marginally better than a fan.

There are lots of steps to move around the place.

Overally a very disappointing experience.

Worst Ryokan I've ever stayed in

Stayed one night there during our trip in Japan. 
The ryokan is at walking distance from the Hakata station, from shrines, from the rivers and the restaurant. So the location is great. 
And the ryokan is really beautiful, old, all in wood, with a beautiful inside garden. The first impression was great. 
But then came the moment to sleep and we had then just the feeling that all our neighbors were in our bedroom. We could even hear them whisper. It was a bit strange for us as it seemed that there were not so many people in the hotel at the time and that everybody was parked in the same close bedroom. Bit anyway, noisy, impossible to sleep if the neighbors are here. The uncomfortable cushion did not help as well. 
Personal was really nice and the place was clean. 

Beautiful ryokan but noisy and a bit uncomfortable

The best ryokan we have stayed at in Japan. Easy walk from station. Welcoming, very nice room, wonderful free onsen,  good central area. The perfect place to stay in Fukuoka.  Japan at its most authentic - you can do no better !

Luxury and ambiance at low price

I've stayed here twice. It's gotten a little run down since my first visit. The first time, they served tea in the room. Not this time. The bedding was clean, but worn. Convenient to transportation and various attractions. Great ambiance of old wooden floors and latticwork walls. Sleep on a futon, wearing a yukata. If you have never stayed in a ryokan, you should. It's a wonderful way to experience Japan. If you want meals, inquire ahead of time. If you can't carry your luggage up stairs, ask for a ground floor room. There are no elevators. Hakata/Fukuoka is a wonderful town. Well worth a visit. You can take a hydrofoil to Busan, Korea from there. If you buy it ahead of time, you can take an inexpensive airplane ride on ANA to anyplace else in Japan, on a special ticket for foreigners. And, of course, there is the Japan Rail Pass.

Great for authentic experience

We spent our very first night ever in Japan here and it couldn't have been more uplifting and inspiring. While the whole place is indeed somewhat worn, the rooms are fresh and clean, and the over- the-top-special atmosphere makes up for the few oddities. We never expected kimonos in our closet! Very friendly staff as well.
