RC Fukuoka: 50m² guest room, flexible rate: 84,000 JPY
RC Tokyo: 52m² guest room, flexible rate: 195,000 JPY

Looking at Golden Week dates, the gap narrows a bit, but rates are still about 40% lower at RC Fukuoka.

Everyone needs to make their own value judgments. In terms of the top luxury property in Fukuoka, however, it appears that RC stands alone - I'll take Aventine's word (and photos) for it.
Tokyo has other hotels. I wasn’t referring to the RC.

March is low season and Conrad/Andaz/Okura are around $500-600 and a lot better
