8.9Verified guest“We loved the traditional Japanese breakfast with miso soup, rice, and egg. The hotel is very close to several subway stations, making transportation easy. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay.”
8.9Verified guest“I will definitely stay in this hotel again! It is mint new, all facilities work perfect, the staff was friendly and always at my service no end. My room was nicely decorated, well equipped (they even put a heated mirror in the bathroom, so it is not fogged when bathing!), sterile clean and all in all charming. The internet connection was super fast. The breakfast was perfect - and it is not an exaggeration - it was amazingly tasty! My best experience with a hotel in Japan so far. For those using a JR Pass this hotel is especially convenient since Chuo line near which it is located is a JR line, as well as main Yamanote circle line. 10 points out of 10!”
8.9Verified guest“The staff were wonderful hosts. The atmosphere was very welcoming and the hotel was beautifully appointed. We will definitely stay there again and happily recommend it to others.”
