Sorano Hotel

I was looking for a hotel for a 'hocance' (hotel vacation) and found Sorano Hotel. The room was very clean and spacious, allowing me to relax completely. The welcome drink and sweets were a lovely touch! And having a 12 PM checkout was absolutely perfect! It's a hotel I'd definitely want to stay at again.

Absolutely fantastic! When I visited, other hotels in Tachikawa were severely overpriced. I had to choose between paying a few hundred for a tiny 12 sqm room or double that for a spacious 52 sqm room, and I'm so glad I went with the latter! It was totally worth it!! To get a room like this in Tokyo (even if it's the suburbs) for an average of 2100 yen (or around 1500 yen on weekdays) is incredible value for money! Plus, the Chuo Line from Tachikawa offers direct access to Kichijoji, Mitaka, Ueno, Shinjuku, and more, which is super convenient. Even if you just stay in Tachikawa, you'll find plenty of dining, shopping, and entertainment options. I can't believe this hotel is rated 3 stars on Google and 4 stars on Ctrip! If that's the case, then most 5-star hotels back home are severely over-inflating their ratings (bold statement, I know). And in Japan, where 10 AM check-out is the norm, this place lets you check out at 12 PM! How great is that?! They also have a hot spring and an infinity pool on the top floor, and the lounge offers a variety of free drinks and snacks. Seriously, it's really good!

Very quiet, clean, and hygienic.

The hotel staff's service regarding luggage storage before check-in was excellent. The room was very nice, clean, and had a great view. The futon was incredibly soft! It was fantastic! The coffee served in the lounge was also delicious.
