[Complete Report] A hot new spot! A hotel that even locals want to use in Nakasu (Hakata Ward, Fukuoka City)
Hello! I'm Hakata Aya, a writer who loves hot information about Fukuoka.
This time we will introduce a new spot in Nakasu that is currently attracting attention! The Royal Park Canvas Fukuoka Nakasu hotel opened on August 4, 2023.
Based on the concept of "being soothed by Kyushu's nature," this facility allows you to feel nature with your whole body even though it is located in the city center.
The Royal Park Canvas Fukuoka Nakasu, an oasis-like place of relaxation in the heart of the city (Nakasu, Hakata Ward, Fukuoka City)
The Royal Park Canvas Fukuoka Nakasu is conveniently located just a 2-minute walk from Nakasu-Kawabata Station on the Subway Airport Line and Hakozaki Line.

Wood from Kyushu is used throughout the hotel, making it a noteworthy hotel that gives off a sense of openness and nature despite being located in the heart of the city.

A total of 255 guest rooms with natural and cultural themes
First, let us introduce you to the guest rooms!
This is the "Balcony Suite (King)" on the top 14th floor, which has a living room and bedroom (recommended price: 48,185 yen/person).
The 89.2 square meter room is equipped with a large dining table and sofa. The walls and furnishings are made of wood or have a wood-like finish, creating a relaxing space.

You can get a panoramic view of Fukuoka cityscape from the balcony! At night, you can see the neon lights shining brilliantly.

There is a door between the bedroom, which has a king-size bed, and the dining area, making it a more private space.

The kitchen space is fully equipped with a Balmuda range and induction cookware, so you can prepare simple meals.

Separate types of indoor wear (common to all rooms) and bathrobes are also provided. Of course, there is a bathroom in the room, but if you are using the large public bath, you can wear the indoor wear when moving around.

As part of their efforts to achieve the SDGs, the amenities provided in the rooms are minimal. Please take only what you need from the amenity corner next to the front desk.

This is the "Corner King Riverside (Regular Floor)" on the 6th floor (reference price 14,720 yen/person).

This room features a wide view that you can only get from a corner room, and is also close to the stop of the Hakata Gion Yamakasa festival, so in July you'll be able to see a typical Hakata view from your room!

This time, I stayed in the "Superior Twin Riverside (Regular Floor)" room on the 9th floor (reference price 12,080 yen/person).

Not only the bed, but the sofa is also wide!

The bath is a shower type, not a bathtub. When I went to the large public bath, I put a towel and a separate type of indoor wear in the bag provided.

A mist shower pours down! A large bath inspired by the valleys of Kyushu
The large public bath on the third floor is an area reserved for guests only. Designed to resemble the valleys of Kyushu, the bathhouse uses black clay walls from Kumamoto and Kagoshima. The chic space is filled with greenery, creating a truly dreamy atmosphere (photo shows the men's bathroom).

The mist shower that pours down from above the bathtub makes you feel as if you are one with nature.

The sauna room is equipped with a dry sauna for men and a mist sauna for women. The men's bathroom also has a cold bath!

Upon leaving the large public bath, you will find the "Post-bath Lounge."

Here you can enjoy self-service "REC COFFEE," which has stores mainly in Fukuoka, as well as popsicles made with non-standard fruits grown in Kyushu.

The ice cream flavors available vary depending on the time of day, including "mango," "guava," "fruit mix," and "red grape."

Coffee and ice cream after a bath is such a blissful moment...!

At the "Rooftop Garden", also located on the third floor, you can bring a drink from the lounge after your bath and spend a relaxing time surrounded by greenery.

This place is also available for non-guests.
Enjoy an elegant breakfast at a restaurant that features wood-fired cooking.
Next to the lobby on the second floor is "ONO HAKATA - Octo Natura Kyushu."

The display of firewood, which is said to have been made from trees that fell in Asakura City, Fukuoka Prefecture, due to heavy rains, is impressive.

The breakfast here allows you to choose one main dish (two types of wood-fired dishes) and one side dish (four types of egg dishes).

Image: Hakata Aya.
In addition, the half buffet will have a wide variety of dishes using Kyushu ingredients, such as "Rice with Raw Eggs" made with local eggs from Iizuka's "Hatanaka Raising Chicken Farm" and "Brown Sugar Chiffon Cake from Tanegashima"♪

The savory aroma of Kyushu's fire-cooked cuisine will whet your appetite. You can enjoy it with all five senses, not just the taste, but the sight and sound of the fire.

Image: Hakata Aya.
On this day, I chose the "Itoshima Pork Shoulder Roast Grilled with Corn Declineaison." The surprisingly tender pork shoulder and the irresistible aroma of the corn were the perfect combination!

Image: Hakata Aya.
The sub-menu choice, "Kyushu Mascarpone French Toast with Mango Sauce," had a fluffy texture and the avocado sauce was delicious♪

Check out this unique art piece that makes the shape of Kyushu emerge!
This is the "Canvas Lounge" on the second floor.

Image: Hakata Aya.
There is a DJ booth and a piano, and music events featuring local artists are held every Friday and Saturday.

The walls are decorated with art created in collaboration with "HIBIGEI," an organization that aims to change society through art by people with disabilities.
Take a look at this piece of art by tilting your head to the right! It is shaped like Kyushu, and features nature and iconic buildings.

The terrace seats offer a view of the Hakata River flowing in front of you, and even though you're surrounded by buildings, you'll feel as if you're in another world, like you're in the everyday.

Image: Hakata Aya.
This space is also available to non-guests, so you can spend your time however you like, whether that's having a coffee or working.

It was such a wonderful hotel that you could almost forget you were in the city center, and it felt so extraordinary! There are many spaces that you can use even if you're not staying overnight, so why not just drop by? (Text by Hakata Aya)
