🏨 Peace & Comfort by the Sea: A Stay at The358 UMI in Fukuoka

We chose The358 UMI for our recent stay in Fukuoka because it’s a relatively new hotel tucked away from the busy city center — perfect for a peaceful and laid-back getaway. The location in the suburbs gave us the quiet atmosphere we were looking for, and the ample parking space right at the entrance was a huge plus, especially since we were driving. The hotel is situated beside a few shopping malls, which we didn’t get the chance to explore, but it’s certainly a convenience for future visits. One of the highlights of our stay was the public bath facility, which was clean and very much appreciated after a long day of travel. We stayed in a family room, which was impressively spacious. The beds were plush and comfortable, and the room itself was spotless — clearly well-maintained. That said, one area for improvement would be the smoking area, which is located on the rooftop and is not sheltered. If you’re a smoker, just be prepared for the elements — I had to brave some pretty strong winds coming off the sea just to have a puff. It was freezing! Also, for travelers not planning to drive, the location might be a little inconvenient in terms of public transport. But if you have a car, it’s a wonderful escape from the city with modern amenities and a serene atmosphere. All in all, a very satisfying stay. Would definitely return for the comfort and calm! #summervacay #fukuokahotel #the358umi #suburbanstay #familyfriendlyhotels #fukuokatravel #japangetaway #publicbathrelaxation #fukuokaviews #hotelreview #offthebeatenpathjapan #japan #japantrip #fukuoka #fukuokatrip
