Overview
The Gate Hotel Fukuoka by HULIC is a Tenjin hotel in HULIC Square Fukuoka Tenjin, directly connected to Tenjin Station on the Fukuoka City Subway Airport Line. It opened on April 24, 2025, and suits travelers who want the shopping, dining, nightlife, and office core of Fukuoka more than a stay beside Hakata Station.
Rooms
The hotel has 171 rooms on upper floors of the building, with room categories including The Gate, Luxe, Classy, Scenic, Essential, and Modest. Rooms include free internet access, guest-floor key-card security, and the expected in-room equipment such as a refrigerator, kettle, coffee maker, safe, hair dryer, and air purifier and humidifier.
Facilities
Facilities include a guest lounge, fitness facilities, a universal room, a nursing room, and a smoking area on the nineteenth floor. The hotel does not have its own parking, so drivers need to use nearby paid parking.
Dining
Dining is centered on Anchor Grill Fukuoka on the nineteenth floor, a restaurant and bar with views over Tenjin and toward the mountains. The hotel also has a terrace lounge and guest lounge, and breakfast is served at the restaurant.
Location and transport
The hotel is directly connected to Tenjin Station Exit 5. Tenjin-minami Station is about 10 minutes on foot via Tenjin Underground Mall, Nishitetsu Fukuoka (Tenjin) Station is about four minutes on foot, and Nishitetsu Tenjin Expressway Bus Terminal is about four minutes on foot.
Airport access
The Airport Line connects Tenjin with Fukuoka Airport and Hakata. A taxi from Fukuoka Airport is estimated at about 30 minutes, depending on traffic.
Why stay here
Choose The Gate Hotel Fukuoka by HULIC when the trip is built around Tenjin shopping, restaurants, nightlife, business calls, and subway access. It is stronger for the Tenjin side of Fukuoka than for travelers who need to be directly beside the Shinkansen platforms at Hakata Station.
Good to know
Check-in is from 2:00 PM and check-out is at 11:00 AM. The station connection is the main location advantage, but Tenjin has several connected stations and underground passages, so the exact exit matters when arriving with luggage.
