I loved this room! It’s expensive but for a one- night treat it was fab! This room was Hello Kitty heaven: pink toilet paper, wallpaper and decor, bedding, even the kettle! Pity the cups and coasters weren’t though. …

Very nice hotel! Expensive but worth it. I like how the toilet and shower and sink were all separate, very hygienic. The front desk was very nice, they spoke enough English to get by. Train station is right across street as well as 7/11, making it very easy to go around. Also very close to restaurants and shops. Room was spacious enough to open luggage and relax. Had nice view of sky tree on 8th floor. I do recommended this place.

The hotel is quite modern, and the service is quite good and helpful. Our room rate does not include breakfast, and it costs about 2,200 yens for each person after a 15% discount for hotel guests.  …

The location is the best part of this hotel - the metro is literally across the street! Tons of restaurants and shops within a five minute walk. Beds were very firm, rooms were very small (suitcases had to be stored under the bed), and the breakfast was very basic. However, it's good value for Tokyo!

Loved our stay here. We had a deluxe triple bed corner room (12the floor) with views of the Skytree and river. The room was clean and compact. The beds were very close together, and it’s best to store your luggage under the bed to have space to walk in the room. There is a TV (which even shows you live availability and wait times for washing/dryer machines), a fridge, separate toilet and Japanese style shower/tub. It really was such a pleasant stay.

Excellent location and nice amenities albeit a bit on the pricy side. The metro station is just next to the hotel making to easier to access the Subway and JR linesThe location of the hotel is also very close to the Sensoji temple making it very easy to access the temple (early morning photos before the crowds get in) as well as the surrounding food and retail market. Definitely recommended for families for the location and easy access to public transportation. One tip would be to book early as the per night rates can get pretty high if you leave it for late!

Perfect hotel with 5 stars hotel service. Stayed at hello kitty room for 5 nights. Excellent everything. Special thanks to Ms. 荒井 Y. ARI who helped me to call and locate my lost backpack at Tokyo station. It’s amazing that she found my bag and scheduled time for me to get it back. I love this hotel and don’t want to leave. Will be back next time for sure!

We had a wonderful time here, with views of Skytree and the city and our room was nice and spacious. We were really liking the almond shower gel, and wanted to take it home hahaha. It was a great location near bus stops and trains and the breakfast there was also good. We had a good hairdryer and having access to the washing machine and dryer on another floor was helpful. The fridge didn't keep things super cold but it was ok. I got used to using the handheld showers in Japan so that was also okay. Altogether we had a great time.

The staff were super helpful and kind, the rooms were clean and exactly what we expected, and the view from our hotel room was amazing. It is super close to the major Asakusa stations, with amazing access to all of Tokyo. I will definitely be staying here again on my next Tokyo visit!

Located right across Kaminarimon, it’s one of those hotels whose entrance you’d miss if you don’t pay attention. The lobby Is located behind 2 sliding doors, and most of the front space is taken by a bank.As with most hotels of this class nowadays, there are self check in/out kiosks. But if you’re like me, and prefer to test your Japanese, I checked in at the reception. Mind you, they speak perfectly fluent English too, so don’t worry. At the end of the check in process, they explain to you the different levels of cleaning that is done (so you get to choose. But for hygiene reasons, they’ll still come in to clean after 3 nights whether you want it or not. It’s clearly stated on the same information card found in the room). The receptionist will also explain to you with the help of an information card, when the restaurant is usually busiest at breakfast. I do love this bit of information because you can decide whether you want to sleep in like everyone else and wait in line for breakfast.The room is of contemporary style (not the tired decor of the Showa era from more expensive hotels in other parts of the country), and typically of hotels in Tokyo (unless you pay much more), it’s small. As you can see in the photo, there isn’t much room between the end of the bed and the TV, but there’s enough at the side for a coffee table and a chair. I did my packing at that area.Breakfast wise, the hotel offers a mix of western and Japanese cuisine. But if you’re a fan of Japanese curry rice, you’ll be disappointed because they don’t offer it here. The spacing between tables are comfortable enough with going elbow to elbow as compared to another hotel in the area that I’d stayed in previously.There’s a coin laundry facility with 3 washer + dryers. I didn’t get a look to see if you can get the staff to help if someone chucked their laundry into the machine in the morning, locked the machine door with a code and then went out for the day. I’ve encountered this on numerous occasions during my stays in Tokyo. Very inconsiderateStaff wise, as I’d mentioned, the ones I’d encountered are comfortable with English. Pre-Olympics, English wasn’t so commonly spoken but post-Olympics, after the huge effort by the government to train relevant staff, it’s more commonly used to varying levels of proficiency. When push comes to shove, keep your cool, use simple words, remember that you’re a guest in the country. A sense of humour and big smiles gets you a long way. Enjoy your stay!
