It was a perfect one-night stay. The location was convenient, the amenities were good, and the room was clean. I’d happily stay again when I’m in town.
Love the location, walkable distance to city downtown and castle-park area. Very much enjoyed the stay thanks to many restaurants and shopping centers nearby. Will definitely recommend to friends and families! 🏋️♂️🐶😻
I had a pleasant stay at APA Hotel Kokura Ekimae. The location is a major highlight—it’s about a 5-minute walk from Kokura Station, making it very convenient for getting around. It’s also close to popular spots like Kokura Castle and Tanga Market, which made sightseeing easy.
The hotel operates largely on self-service, which may take a little getting used to, but everything is quite efficient. Even so, the staff are available and willing to assist when needed, which I appreciated.
Overall, a solid choice for travelers looking for convenience and accessibility in Kokura.
For a one night business trip, this hotel is perfect. Inexpensive yet very conveniently located just in front of Kokura station, with plenty of dining choices within an easy walk. The room was comfortable, clean and large enough for my needs. (Just a place to sleep and relax a bit in the morning).
I enjoy APA hotel stay in different cities in Japan, and this has no exception. The location is excellent with only 5 minutes walk to Kokura station. The front desk staff were friendly, polite and respectful. The only thing I will complain was that breakfast service seemed to be short of staff. But I was not sure that was a special case for the day.

I've stayed at this hotel several times while on business in Kokura. Im usually very satisfied as this hotel is in a very convenient location with easy public parking just across the road.
Unfortunately this time I was assigned a smoking room on a smoking floor. I don't smoke, so the odor was overpowering. Additionally, there was an ongoing party or other loud disturbance on the same floor, which prevented me from getting much sleep. Not happy.
A typical business hotel - clean, efficient and good value.
Two very minor issues - the property is located at the 'rear' side of the station, so if arriving by train, be careful to take the right exit otherwise you may end up walking around in circles to find it.
Also, the check-in is via automated self-serve screen and while there is always someone to help, can be a little confusing to anyone using this system for the first time.
The hotel facilities and room, as well as the staff were excellent, however i am not a fan of the new trend amongst budget hotels using self check-in electronic kiosks . There are always one or two staff assisting guests using these machines, so why arent those staff just behind the front desk greeting guest in the "old fashioned way"?
The room was to hot and did not have air-conditioning. While opening the window did little for the temperature.
Neighbour was also very loud as I heard tv and loud laughing at 01:00 in the night and 9 in the morning.
