First opened in 2010, the 160-room St. Regis Osaka has quickly become one of the most famous luxury hotels in the city.

The mid-range, 423-room Canal City Fukuoka Washington Hotel is part of the huge Canal City Hakata shopping and entertainment complex. Located right in the city center near transportation links, this property is a convenient choice for business and leisure travelers alike -- two bus lines make stops in front of the hotel, and the train station is within walking distance. Rooms are clean and pleasant, although some can feel a bit cramped, especially the Singles. While there are smoking and non-smoking floors, a lingering smell of stale cigarettes permeates the hotel. And for a pleasant but no-frills hotel with few amenities, room rates are high, probably because of its Canal City Hakata location. Travelers seeking a more refined ambience at a similar price point should check out the Plaza Hotel Tenjin.
