Live Your Journey
Zen and Living Fukuoka
Zen and Living Fukuoka, opening in spring 2025 in Maizuru, Fukuoka, is a unique accommodation that combines the comfort of a hotel with the flexibility of a guesthouse.
The property offers two bedrooms, a Japanese-style room, a spacious living area, and two sets of bathrooms, showers, and toilets—ideal for families and groups seeking a comfortable and convenient stay.
Each floor is equipped with a wine cooler and refrigerator stocked with complimentary drinks, including alcoholic beverages.
With in-unit washing machines, dryers, and vanity areas, the space is well-suited for extended stays.
Just a 5-minute walk from Akasaka Subway Station, the location offers easy access for both sightseeing and business.
Despite being in the heart of the city, high-performance inner windows provide excellent insulation and soundproofing, ensuring a peaceful stay.
We believe in offering an experience of “living like a local” rather than simply staying the night.
As a token of your visit, we provide a special gift set to help you remember your journey even after you return home.
Cultural experiences such as sake tasting, tea ceremonies held in the Japanese-style room, and origami are also available — please inquire when making your reservation.
Our team looks forward to welcoming you with genuine hospitality and making your stay in Fukuoka a peaceful and memorable one.
