Pal Annex Furugou
7,6/10 Very good - Based on 75 reviews
Pal Annex Furugou is an adult-only short-stay property positioned for convenience near central Ōita. Operating as a love hotel on Kyūshū, it offers primarily double-room accommodation with large double beds and compact economy options designed for two adults. The property emphasizes privacy and self-contained stays: free Wi‑Fi and complimentary private parking are available on site, and staff request that guests inform the hotel in advance of late arrivals. Check-in is typically in the evening and check-out in the morning, reflecting the facility’s focus on brief overnight or night‑time stays rather than long daytime access.
Rooms are equipped with a mix of practical and comfort-focused features: many guest reports and photographs indicate in-room water dispensers, a microwave, coffee provisions and a coffee machine, and some rooms include a jacuzzi-style bath. Entertainment and convenience items noted by visitors include a large flat-screen TV and leisure devices in certain rooms. The property’s images also show a rooftop pool area and varied bathroom layouts; breakfast service is offered with a choice between Western and Japanese-style options. House rules specify adult-only occupancy, no pets, and a curfew window when access is restricted, so planning arrival times is advised.
For travellers planning short stays around Oita, the hotel sits a few kilometres from the city’s main station and is within driving distance of regional points of interest. As a love hotel in Ōita Prefecture it is positioned to serve couples seeking a discreet, amenity‑focused night away rather than family or long‑stay travel; guests should note the strict age policy and the property’s stated arrival and access procedures when booking. Practical preparation—confirming arrival time and room preferences in advance—will help ensure a smooth check‑in.
