It’s my last day staying with Node Hotel but felt inclined to support what was a great stay. The location is convenient enough to retreat to somewhere that doesn’t feel super congested. There’s lot of places to choose from to eat nearby. The most important thing for us is cleanliness and we were super happy with this. A pleasant surprise was how spacious the unit was, compared to the one we had in Tokyo. No shuffling around your luggage to reach the bed. So if you’re travellers like us, we would recommend Node!

Our stay at Node Hotel was exceptional, and I would gladly return. The hotel's aesthetic is both luxurious and modern, creating an inviting and comfortable atmosphere. One detail that stood out was the effort made to provide separate bathroom amenities for both male and female guests. Each day, we were given fresh toiletry kits including a female shaver for myself and a male shaver with shaving gel for my partner. Other items included body towels, a hairbrush, toothbrushes with mini toothpaste, and cotton buds, all replenished daily. The location is also highly convenient, with two supermarkets just down the road and a 7-Eleven directly across the street. Overall, it was a fantastic experience.

The interior has an artistic feel throughout.I liked that they paid attention to the lighting.However, at check-inInside the counter after work? employees in plain clothesAfter check-inWhen I entered the room, there was a smell of sweat.I felt a little sick.I don't know if it's the smell from the toilet, or if it's probably from the bedspread that hasn't been washed every time.The whole room smelled.Also, the cooler blows direct air, so even if I set it to lowWhen I woke up in the morning, I felt really tired.One night while traveling is so precious.I would like to see improvements so that I would want to stay again.I thought.

It's fun and interesting to see different works in each room. It's comfortable, the staff is kind, and the food is delicious. I will definitely be repeating it without any hesitation (^^).It's stylish and reminds me of HOTEL QUOTE that used to be in Taipei.I tend to buy a lot of artwork, but this one was very well presented and matched well with the furniture, so it was very helpful.Thank you for your help again.Ikkyu Diamond benefits available (long stay from 1pm to 12pm, free breakfast), all rooms non-smoking (smoking area available), various credit cards accepted.Close to convenience stores, supermarkets (Life, Fresco (24H)), and bus stop (Shijo Nishinotoin). 6 minutes walk from Karasuma/Shijo Station.(24.7.31)

We stayed at the Node Hotel for 4 nights in July. It is a smallish hotel with an artistic theme throughout. Our room was spacious, by Japanese standards, and we had everything we needed. The breakfast was very good. …
