Hi,
Can’t decide between these two hotel locations. We are a couple and would like the convenience near station for day trips out of Fukuoka and casual dinning. Other than close proximity to transport, hotel cleanliness and quietness are also our priorities. Appreciate any advice please. Thank you.

Solaria Nishitetsu is a good hotel chain and I've stayed ones in Kagoshima, Kyoto, and Tokyo. I haven't stayed one in Fukuoka but I'm sure it's a fine hotel. It's in a fun and happening Tenjin but it's not as convenient as staying near Hakata Station.
