Best Tokyo Hotels

A very good Japanese-style B&B ~ The room is large and very clean. The toilet, bathroom, and hand washing area are separated and can be used by several people at the same time. There is also a washing machine outside, and there are also laundries and convenience stores nearby. The only drawback is the location. It is relatively remote, so you have to take a bus from Kita Ikebukuro to Ikebukuro Station.

Hoshinoya is a very distinctive hotel. From the moment you enter the lobby, you have to take off your shoes. The lobby, corridors, elevators, and rooms are all decorated in tatami style, which is very clean. There is a very good hot spring on the top floor. After enjoying the hot spring, you will be served a glass of delicious ice milk. It is worth staying. Because the distance between the buildings is small, it is dark in the room, and there is no problem staying at night. But it will be a bit uncomfortable to stay in the hotel all day. The set meals ordered into the room are exquisite, but monotonous. So you can't always order in the room. This is the second time I have stayed in the same hotel, and the feeling is a little different. The first time was a bit shocking and very special. The second time, the experience is still very good, and the service quality must be five stars. Some waiters at the front desk are not good at English. Finally, a special point, in the afternoon, there was a traditional performance in the lobby, which echoed the traditional Japanese style inside the building, and it was very stylish.

Nice location near Shibuya station. Linen doesn't seem clean and we spotted some hair during check in. Amenities were sufficient but there isn't any coffee/tea or a safe box in the room. Also insufficient space for hanging any clothes. Room is really tiny, there is barely any space to walk with 2 luggages. Would recommend for the location and nice new deco.

Located in red light district (Kabukicho) of Shinjuku. Very lively when night falls. At least 10mins walk to Shinjuku station. Lugging your luggage through small lanes & thick crowd is no joke. The hotel staff speak English, good service. Room is clean, water pressure is good, no toiletries, room size compact as usual. Not suitable for 28” suitcase. Can loan hand-held weighing scale from counter if you need one.  Like the hotel but not the Kabukicho district.

This is an amazing hotel for solo travellers. I booked a single, non-smoking room and whilst it was small, it was more than enough. The bed was a small double bed, and the bathroom was big enough. The staff were wonderful and very friendly. The location of this hotel was spectacular, with it being a 5 minute walk to Shibuya station and a 10 minute walk to Shibuya Scramble Crossing. I will stay again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The hotel facilities are good, and the hotel has a free shuttle bus to the Shinagawa subway station, which is very convenient. There are not many commercial shopping nearby, suitable for business trips

The room is small, the facilities are average, and it is difficult to find a place to fully open the suitcase. The decoration and lighting in the entire hotel are very strange. The lighting in the elevator room looks like a nightclub, which I don't like very much. The advantage is the convenient location. However, there are many hotels in the same price range nearby. If it were not for the free redemption of Marriott points, I would not consider staying here again.

Location was alright, about 12mins walk from the JR line although there are slightly nearer metro stations so take note if you have a number of luggages. I like that they have a machine + dryer within the room for you to do laundry. The kettle was abit rusty so we bought bottled water instead. The room was pretty small but that’s expected. It won’t be able to fit ＞1 large suitcase. Service was good, fuss free check in and out. Lots of shopping and food available nearby. Overall a pleasant stay.

Very nice hotel, perfect location close to the subway and train station and restaurants .The view on the lobby is just to the Tokyo tower and Fuji Mount and you may get room with same view. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

## Hotel East 21 Tokyo: Great Room Size, Frustrating Heating Issue **Pros:** * Spacious and comfortable rooms * Convenient location with several convenience stores and restaurants nearby * Offers shuttle service to Tokyo Disney Resort (availability might need to be confirmed) **Cons:** * **Exorbitantly priced parking:** Be prepared for high parking costs if you plan to drive. * **Unresolved heating issue:** Encountered a malfunctioning heater during winter, and staff response was inadequate. While the temperature was adjusted, the core problem wasn't addressed, leaving the room uncomfortably cold. * **Distance from metro station:** A 10-minute walk to the nearest metro station might be inconvenient for some travelers relying on public transport. **Overall:** Hotel East 21 Tokyo offers comfortable accommodations with a drawback in its distance from the metro station. However, the significant issue lies in the malfunctioning heater during winter and the lack of proper resolution by the staff. This can be a major concern, especially for guests visiting during colder months. **Recommendation:** Consider this hotel if the spacious rooms and proximity to convenience stores are priorities. However, be aware of the expensive parking and the potential heating issues. It might be advisable to contact the hotel beforehand to inquire about the current functionality of the heating system, especially if visiting during winter.
