We have now stayed at this hotel twice, and will use it whenever visiting the Kokura area. Terrific views, clean and comfortable rooms, and right by Kokura Station. Very convenient!

I frequently stay at the Kokura Rhiga Royal for bith busines and leisure trips. Outstanding staff and service, excellent room choices at medium range prices. My favorite rooms are Executive Suites that offer Executive lounge and dining access, which is world class.
