Seven Stars in Kyushu is a special excursion sleeper train (cruise train) operated by the Japanese company JR Kyushu.
Seven Stars in Kyushu started operating on October 15, 2013, and aims to travel around Kyushu and enjoy nature, food, hot springs, history, etc.
The train names are based on the seven prefectures of Kyushu (Fukuoka, Saga, Nagasaki, Kumamoto, Oita, Miyazaki, and Kagoshima) and the seven main tourist attractions of Kyushu (nature, food, hot springs, history, culture, power spots, humanity) and a 7-car passenger car.
JR Kyushu considers this vehicle to be an “adult space,“ so tour participants are limited to junior high school students and above. The dress code in the common areas of the vehicle is “smart casual“ and jeans and sandals are prohibited. Smoking is completely prohibited inside the train, and there are no TVs in the private sleeper rooms.
As of spring 2017, the number of applicants is approximately 22 times, and the number of repeat customers is 5 times, making it famous as a difficult train to book.
Seven Stars in Kyushu received the Brunel Prize in 2014 and the Prime Minister’s Award at the 1st Japan Service Awards in 2016. In 2021, it won first place in the train category of the “Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards 2021’’ conducted by the American travel magazine “Condé Nast Traveler’’. It also took first place in 2022 and 2023, making it the third consecutive year it has won the world’s best award.
As it enters its 10th year in 2022, some parts will be renewed. Cars 2, 3, 4, and 6 have been renovated, with the number of rooms reduced by 2 in car 3, and 1 room each in cars 4 and 6, from 14 to 10, and the capacity to accommodate 20 to 28 people.
