Tosei Hotel Cocone Ueno

The location was suitable for a one-night stay in Ueno, and the room was perfect for just two people.

The hotel has a fantastic location—just a 5-minute walk from the Keisei Skyliner (Narita airport transfer), a 1-minute walk to the metro, and right opposite Ameyoko market. The room is small but fine for two people; you can fit one 24-inch luggage and a carry-on, but can't open two large suitcases at the same time. They provide 2 bottles of water daily, slippers, and basic bath amenities. What I didn't like was the smelly curtains (though my husband didn't mind, and I've noticed this in other Japanese hotels too) and the room felt a bit dusty, making me cough. On the bright side, the lobby offers a coin laundry, vending machines, free tea/coffee, cookies, and self-serve amenities (combs, bath powder, razors). The staff are lovely, and they offer free luggage storage before check-in and after check-out.

the location is very startegic. Near ueno station, ameyoko street, family mart, and gyumon halal ramen. The room is clean and cozy, but it is very small, we cant open 2 luggages together at the same time. The staffs are helpful. They also have coin laundry, and they provided yamato service too.

I had a wonderful 4-night stay here during my trip to Japan. The hotel was exceptionally clean, and the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. For the price, it offers excellent value. The breakfast was delicious with a good variety of options, making it a great way to start each day. The room size is what you would typically expect in Japan—compact but well-designed and comfortable. It had everything we needed, and the hotel provided all the essential amenities. Fresh towels were replaced daily, along with two complimentary bottles of water. One thoughtful touch I really appreciated was the housekeeping service. Even when we put up the "Do Not Disturb" sign, they fully respected our privacy and never entered the room. Instead, they hung fresh towels and bottled water on our door every day. The hotel also displayed the daily weather forecast at the reception, which was very helpful when planning our itinerary. On the day we checked out, it was raining. The receptionist patiently showed us how to get to the Skyliner through the underground station so we could avoid walking in the rain. Their kindness and excellent service truly left a lasting impression. Overall, this hotel exceeded my expectations in terms of cleanliness, service, and value for money. I would definitely stay here again on my next trip to Japan. Highly recommended!

This our second time to stay in this time. It is satisfying and comfortable.

Staffs were friendly but the room was not clean. I had dust accumulated that wasn’t cleaned. The washroom door was dirty.

Very close to the JR station. Just walk across the Ameyoko Street market
