This was my second trip to Tokyo, and I chose to stay near Ginza again. The hotel is conveniently located, just a 5-8 minute walk from Shimbashi subway station. The area is fantastic, with local supermarkets, numerous 24-hour convenience stores, Don Quijote duty-free shop, and the Ginza shopping district with all sorts of mid-to-high-end department stores, luxury boutiques, restaurants, small shops, and banks – absolutely everything you need! The hotel itself, while compact, has all the essentials. It's newly renovated and very comfortable. The toilet is electric, and the shower has many detailed settings. There's a free coffee machine in the lobby, and our package even included complimentary juice. The service was excellent!

The location is excellent, very close to Senso-ji Temple. The surrounding area is vibrant and lively, and it's not far from the station, making it convenient to get to various places. The rooms are quite new, more modern, and better suited for international travelers' needs, for example, by removing single bathtubs. The front desk has several Chinese-speaking staff, making communication smooth and easy. They also offer luggage storage on the day of check-in and check-out. However, there are a few minor flaws. For instance, the room I stayed in had some noticeable stains on the walls, which affected the aesthetics. Also, the wall-mounted TV protruded quite a bit, and since the hallway was already narrow, it was easy to bump into it when passing by. Overall, it's a very good hotel, and the price is quite reasonable. I would definitely consider staying here again when I visit Tokyo.

Free coffee available throughout the day. I loved the coffee. 

Free Snacks at 3pm.

Bed was a bit stiff. 

Near to Akasaka Station. 15 mins walk to Akasaka-Mitsuke Station.

Nearby lots of restaurants options. I loved the Streamer Coffee and Little Tokyo House cafe nearby.

See image for the entrance to the Lift (outside TBS building) that can bring you up to Hotel’s street level instead of going up the slope / stairs.

The air conditioning in the room seemed to have an issue; it was constantly set at 15 degrees Celsius, which was quite cold. I had to wear a thick thermal shirt even in winter. However, I didn't bother asking for help because of the language barrier. The value for money was quite good, though. It's hard to find a triple room for around 1000 yen, including tax. There's a shower, but no bathtub. All the toiletries are provided, and they're decent brands. It's pretty close to Ikebukuro East Exit. After walking around for a few days, I'd actually recommend staying closer to the West Exit!

The location is excellent, just a 10-minute walk from Shimbashi Station. If you're feeling energetic, you can easily walk to Ginza and Tokyo Station. The surrounding area is very lively, with many small shops and locals, making it convenient for shopping and dining. I stayed in two room types: the double room could only fit one suitcase open, while the superior double room could fit two (assuming no extra bed). Housekeeping is every other day, with fresh towels and trash removal daily. For repeat guests, you can store up to two pieces of luggage. Communication with the front desk was smooth; they readily helped when I asked to have an extra bed removed. The only drawback is the lack of a laundry room, which isn't ideal for travelers who prefer to pack light.

Exceptional stay. Location is superb, within a walking distance from Ueno park and its museums, very near Koishikawa Korakuen garden, Tokyo University, Tokyo Dome and metro stations. The rooms are well-equipped and very neat, with humidiefier/air cleaner and daily room service bringing fresh towels and bath robes. Super nice public bath area. Breakfast is plain okay, but the ice cream in the evening is just gorgeous. The staff is super amicable and nice. 

Super clean! The experience was great. Went with friends in winter, and it was really comfortable and warm indoors. There's amazing Hunan food right next door – seriously, a fellow Chinese person wouldn't lie about this!

This Tokyo trip's hotel completely exceeded my expectations. From check-in to check-out, I felt the staff's incredible thoughtfulness throughout, and I definitely have to recommend it to anyone planning a trip to Tokyo!

The hotel's location is absolutely perfect, just a 5-minute walk to the subway station. From there, you can easily reach popular areas like Ginza and Tokyo Station. There are also convenience stores, izakayas, and unique restaurants nearby, making late-night snacking or shopping incredibly convenient. The most pleasant surprise was how spacious the room felt for a Tokyo hotel. Through the floor-to-ceiling window, you could catch glimpses of the city, and the natural light was excellent. Inside, the amenities were comprehensive – the Simmons mattress was soft and comfortable, washing away all travel fatigue. The double basin design and bathtub with a temperature display were incredibly thoughtful, showing attention to detail everywhere. The room's cleanliness was impeccable; there wasn't a speck of dust in any corner, and the bedding and bathroom supplies had a fresh scent. The complimentary portable WiFi had a stable signal, allowing me to stay connected and navigate easily while out and about.

The facilities are complete and the service is excellent. Even though I arrived early and couldn't check in yet, they arranged for me to store my luggage, which made it easy to go out for food and shopping. The only thing I think could be improved is that there was no drinking water in the room. When I stayed at the Keio Plaza Hotel nearby before, there was drinking water in the fridge.

The room was a bit small, but there's a convenience store right downstairs and the subway station is only a 5-minute walk, which is very convenient.

The b Sapporo is highly recommended! The location is superb, very close to Susukino subway station and within walking distance. The airport bus stop is right nearby, making transfers to and from the airport super convenient. Odori Park and Tanukikoji 3-chome are just a block or two away, and there's a shopping district right downstairs, making it perfect for shopping, dining, and getting around.

The rooms are typical Japanese business style – not large but clean and tidy. The service is excellent, with complimentary pastries in the afternoon (they go quickly!). Free coffee, iced water, and ice are available in the lobby at all times, which is a thoughtful touch.

The only minor drawback: breakfast is quite simple, basically just bread and porridge. I'd recommend choosing a room type without breakfast for better value.

Overall, the value for money is great. It's an excellent choice for staying in Sapporo city center while shopping. Highly recommended!

The front desk staff were really helpful. They offer a complimentary bar and you can even make your own bath bombs, which was a fun touch. The room was super comfortable, making for a great overall experience. The location is also fantastic, right next to Tanukikoji Shopping Arcade.

The service was great, and the location was excellent. However, the room was incredibly tiny. I honestly don't know how anyone could manage to open a 24-inch suitcase in there.

The most illogical thing was the armchair in the room; it was far too big and couldn't be moved aside. Sitting on it was awkward and cramped. A simple stool would have been much more practical. This chair was just in the way.

On the other hand, the bathroom was quite spacious, despite being a separate compartment. The bathtub was very large, and you could stand in it comfortably without feeling squeezed. Just a heads-up, though, the tub is quite high, so ladies should be a bit careful when getting in.
