"Bad experience for service.
We have problem entering the room because digital door lock didn’t work. Very difficult to contact hotel, no given phone number to contact. We message again & again until the last solution, spare key. It took us 2 hours after finding out the battery ran out. Apology for door problem is what we get.
Early check-out to get the train, I told the hotel I left the damaged luggage in the room and send the picture to them. Finding out later that disposal of big garbage cost me JPY 7500, to comply with Japanese law. If I know i will take it with me for sure. The hotel told that it sent the file informed for this policy when I already booked the room, not In reservation page before you book the room. It supposed to be my fault not read carefully. For me, payment is acceptable, but very disappointed with the communication!"
"This hotel is super convenient, just a short walk from Oshiage Station A1 exit. Even though there's no restaurant, you can grab free bread and drinks in the lobby anytime. The warmed-up bread is actually really good, better than a lot of bakeries in Shanghai! You can also head up to the rooftop garden to relax and get a view of the Tokyo Skytree.
As for cleanliness, the room was quite clean, though the bathroom had a slight, unidentifiable odor – it strangely reminded me of an airplane cabin. 😓"
"Room is spacious however it is quite far from Asakusa station. You need to walk around 15minutes to reach the station. There are bus stations nearby which you need to pay either 100 yen or 210 yen per trip. Washing machine and dryer are at 5th floor. The washing machine is quite dusty and dryer is not very functional. You need to pay 200 yen for each use for washing machine and 200 yen to dry your clothes for 30 minutes."
"This hotel is really great! The room comes with a washing machine, which is super convenient—especially for longer stays or travelers who need to do laundry during their trip. The location is also excellent, with easy access to transportation and plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. Whether for sightseeing or daily needs, everything is within reach. Overall, it offers great value for money and is definitely worth recommending!"
"Upon checking in, you should know that this is not a hotel, but rather an apartment. The room is like a small, freshly renovated apartment with a microwave, a washing machine (laundry detergent is provided in the room. There's also a built-in dryer in the bathroom, you can ask at reception how to use it). There's also a balcony. The staff are very friendly. There's a high penalty for noise violations, which we liked because after a long day, you want to rest in peace and quiet. This place is probably not suitable for families with children.
However, cleaning will be entirely your responsibility. I didn't know this when booking. You even have to take out the trash yourself (on the first floor, to the right of the elevator). We had to ask for fresh towels once; they won't be changed without a request. Also, there's no luggage storage.
We were tourists in Tokyo, and after 5 days, the room got quite dirty. Naturally, you don't want to clean while on vacation, so this aspect wasn't ideal for us. Otherwise, everything was great, and the location is convenient."
"The hotel is really close to the Skytree! However, the area around the hotel is quite desolate, and you have to walk a long way to find food or drinks. The induction cooktop in the room is apparently not working, so if you need to use one, I recommend confirming with the hotel before checking in."
"The main advantages are the price and location. It's odd to rate the service when it's mostly on-demand cleaning. Instead of keys, there are codes for the room door and, at night, for the hotel entrance. The room has plenty of outlets for all your gadgets. There's a kettle, and you can buy water and tea at 7-Eleven. Soap is provided, but there's no soap dish. No breakfast, but Matsuya is a five-minute walk away. It's very convenient to get to both Narita and Haneda airports from the hotel. Skytree is also close by. Overall, it's no-frills, but everything is decent and budget-friendly."
"The building is brand new, so it's incredibly clean. Especially the bathroom and toilet, they're spotless, and the bed is super comfy. The location is also great, just an 8-minute walk from Oshiage Station. There's an Aeon convenience store, Mini Stop, and 7-Eleven nearby. Best of all, the Skytree is right in front of my eyes!
There's just one downside: it's too small for three people. If you open up the single bed, sofa bed, and futon set, there's no space to open your luggage. It feels more suitable for two people."
"Because my flight was cancelled due to a typhoon in Japan, I needed to stay two extra days. And because many flights were cancelled, rooms were naturally in high demand 😂 Unfortunately, I booked room 202 (1b). It took about ten minutes to get there from the subway station, following Google Maps!
I'm not sure about the bathtub; I've already sent them a message!
The mattress was the worst part—too soft, and you have to climb up from the foot of the bed to get in!
There's only one sofa and a small wooden coffee table, making it inconvenient for eating!
The kettle is inconveniently located!
There's no bathroom mat at the bathroom entrance!"
"This hotel was great for me! The location is excellent, just a 5-minute walk to the station. It's super convenient to Ueno, only one stop away. There's a 7-Eleven and Lawson right downstairs. Having my own private room was fantastic, and it was so handy having a hanger, fridge, and sink right there. The toilet and shower rooms were spotless. The staff were really friendly and happy to help with any questions. Check-out was super easy. Oh, and the electronic lock on the door was also incredibly convenient! 😆"

Great
YYseraQThis hotel is super convenient, located close to both Ueno Station and Okachimachi Station, making it easy to get around. Plus, right across the street is the Okachimachi 'pedestrian street' with plenty of dining options. The Japanese-style standard amenities are great. I'd definitely recommend it to friends planning a trip to Tokyo.
GGuest UserThe twin rooms all face JR Station. We were initially given a room on the fifth floor, and it was so noisy we couldn't sleep at all. After telling the front desk, they kindly moved us to the eleventh floor, which we really appreciate. There's still a faint train noise, but it doesn't disturb our rest. Overall, the location is great and convenient for getting around.
GGuest User• located at the furthest exit from the Ikebukuro train station. have to walk about 10-15 minutes to get to the Yamanote line. the surrounding is also filled with a lot of sus shops, with girls standing around at night holding papers and shouting at men. if you’re a female they won’t bother you but if you’re a guy stay safe.
• at night can hear some shouting from the street as well.
• good; have Refa hair dryer, hair wash etc. there’s also a laundry machine, microwave, etc. which was really nice.
• space wise, I think that it is very spacious especially for a solo traveller with only one luggage but if you have two, there might not be enough space for you to open your luggage.
JJackyMy overall experience with this stay was quite complex, feeling more like a test of service management capabilities.
On the first day, the room cleaning quality was noticeably below expectations. The wash area, countertop details, and some amenities weren't clean enough, and the bedding wasn't tidied properly. From a housekeeping management perspective, this felt more like a failure in process execution rather than an isolated incident, and it definitely affected my first impression.
However, after I raised the issue, the hotel's recovery actions were prompt. In the following days, the room cleaning was significantly more standardized, with noticeable improvements in detail. This indicates that the hotel is capable of good service, but the initial day's execution standards simply weren't met.
In contrast, Trip.com's service experience during this incident left a deeper impression. The customer service proactively followed up, communicated efficiently, and handled the situation professionally. They were able to push for problem resolution from a customer experience perspective, demonstrating a mature platform service system. This level of after-sales responsiveness is quite high among current online travel platforms.
Overall Rating:
The hotel's hardware and positioning are fine, but there's room for improvement in service consistency, especially regarding the first-day delivery standards of housekeeping management. Trip.com's coordination and service performance in this incident, on the other hand, highlighted the professional value of their platform.
GGuest UserThough small, this hotel has everything you need. Its Ginza location is incredibly convenient, perfect for shopping or quickly getting to Narita Airport via the expressway.
What truly impressed me is how many features are packed into such a compact space. They have a coin-operated laundry and a large public bath. The room, which I'd estimate at about 20 square meters, even managed to fit bunk beds (1.2m/1.5m), making it very family-friendly.
A minor point is that since the hotel is directly above the subway, you occasionally feel vibrations as trains pass. This led to a funny moment when an actual earthquake hit at night, and I initially thought it was just another train going by!
GGuest UserThe hotel is in an excellent location, conveniently situated near Ueno station and a nearby subway station, making travel around the city very easy. One of the highlights of the stay was the thoughtful amenities. The hotel offers an onsen, complimentary soba in the evening, and jelly desserts, which added a nice touch to the overall experience. The breakfast was especially impressive-delicious and well worth the price. The room size(around14square meters) was impact but comfortable, suitable for 2 people. Additional blankets can be requested at the front desk if needed. The staff were friendly, always smiling, and very throughout the stay. Overall, I was very impressed with the hotel and had a great experience. The downside was the elevator, which can be slow and crowded during peaking times. However, if you’re staying on a lower floor, using the stairs is a convenient alternative.
GGuest Useremployees and amazing breakfast. They had many vegetables + yogurt + all kind of meats (I really liked the beef) - really worth it for 2100 yen per person. My only complaint is that breakfast ends quite early at 9:30.
It is very close to 2 metro lines (green and orange) so you can easily reach any place in Tokyo.
There is a non-stop 7/11 at the -1 floor (you can take the elevator and exit through the shop). It has a very easy to use and good exchange rate ATM.
The gym is like the typical hotel gym. Very small and with few dumbbells.
GGuest UserGood price for a capsule within walking distance of a JR station that reaches ikebukuro and Shinjuku pretty fast. Even has an onsen and sauna! Has a chill area to read manga and buy beer also. Staff also friendly and speaks English which is good to not get lost
Only downside is the baggage area is quite messy and feels a bit dirty
GGuest UserThe city center is really crowded, and it's a bit uncomfortable not being able to fully open my suitcase. However, the staff on the first floor are all very professional and have excellent attitudes.
CCarey LoyCenturion Hotel Ueno was a complete disappointment, falling short of basic hospitality standards. The deception started right at check-in: the room was explicitly advertised and booked as a ”Casual Double Bed,” but what we actually received was a cramped single bed. This blatant misrepresentation immediately compromised the comfort of our stay.
The lack of care extended into the bathroom, which was a major letdown. The sink and shower area were marred by very bad, visible marks that made the entire space feel neglected and unhygienic. For a hotel that positions itself in a convenient location like Ueno, the absolute disregard for accurate room descriptions and rigorous housekeeping is unacceptable.
