THE BLOSSOM HAKATA Premier
A little disappointing for a top end hotel. The room was nice and the shower and bathroom were excellent. We paid extra to have lounge access but the lounge was nothing to speak of. A few packaged snack foods, coffee and alcohol. No food and no service. We thought the lounge would have breakfast ...
