Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located in Shimbashi, just a short walk from Ginza shopping and close to the train station. The rooms, especially the 'quad' room, felt a bit tight for three guests, but the service was helpful and polite. The dining experience in the French-inspired restaurant was elegant but could benefit from more varied cuisine options.
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel, enjoying the spacious room with a wonderful night view of Tokyo Tower and comfortable beds. The bathrooms were clean and fresh, though they tended to get foggy. The service was top-notch, with staff even helping to arrange reservations at the exclusive Tempra Kondo restaurant. The location was superb for exploring Tokyo, just a minute's walk from the metro and Yamanote line. While the dining options were a bit pricey, they were of excellent quality. Overall, a great choice for a stay in Japan.
My stay at the hotel was wonderful! The rooms were exceptionally clean and comfortable, equipped with nightware, robes, slippers, and a hot water pot for tea and coffee. Compared to other boutique hotels in the area, the room was spacious and neat. The location was perfect, allowing easy exploration of Tokyo with close access to multiple train lines and stations. The service, particularly from Mr Choa in the Premium Lounge, was friendly, helpful, and efficient. The dining experience had a good variety of food, but some areas could be improved. Overall, a great value for the money.
The hotel offers spacious rooms with 2 beds, but unfortunately, the room was too hot with no means to cool it down despite not booking a smoking room. The service was exceptional with incredibly sweet and helpful staff available even at midnight. The location is convenient and close to various eateries, making it easy to access train stations and explore Tokyo. The dining experience, although served in a classy restaurant, seemed more like a 2-star hotel offering. Overall, the hotel lacks in some aspects but makes up for it in others.
The hotel offers small but comfortable and beautifully decorated rooms, just smaller than the corner twin rooms. The service is exceptional with helpful and extremely polite staff who go the extra mile to assist with various arrangements. The location is incredibly convenient, ideal for exploring Tokyo with its central position close to Ginza and transportation options. The dining experience includes limited options but comes with added value in the form of discounts at adjacent establishments. Overall, a great stay that balances comfort and service with minor dining limitations.
The hotel offers immaculately clean and comfortable rooms, beautifully decorated and equipped to the highest standard. The service is exceptionally helpful and polite, going above and beyond to ensure a delightful stay. The location is great, just a short walk to the train station. However, the dining experience may not meet all expectations.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic. The rooms were spacious and well-appointed with a view of the Tokyo Tower, creating a romantic ambiance despite a minor issue with one of the lamps. The service was attentive and friendly, making our stay pleasant. The location was ideal, close to the Ginza shopping district and convenient for exploring Tokyo. The dining experience was satisfactory, especially with the traditional Japanese breakfast. Overall, a great value for money.
The hotel offers light and airy rooms that are very clean and well-appointed, although in need of modernization. The service is very courteous and helpful, especially considering the perfect location close to the train station. The location is safe and vibrant with plenty of dining options nearby. The dining experience may need improvement, but the breakfast is quick and substantial. Overall, a convenient choice with some room for enhancement.
The quad room was smaller than expected, but the rooms were nice and big, offering a quiet and somewhat romantic atmosphere despite a broken lamp at night. The service was highly efficient, with helpful and polite staff addressing issues like a leaking basin promptly. The location was perfect, just a short walk from Shimbashi station and with convenient stores and restaurants nearby. The dining experience was great, especially the classy restaurant at the annex, although Western options were limited. Overall, a comfortable stay with some minor setbacks.
The hotel offers a large superior double room, a rare find in Japan, although it was a bit dusty in some areas. The welcoming Japanese hospitality is evident, and the rooms are overall of decent size. The hotel's location is superb, providing easy access to Ginza and public transportation hubs. However, the dining experience was underwhelming at the French restaurant in the annex building across the road.
The hotel is conveniently located in Shimbashi, a short walk to Ginza's main shopping street and with easy access to metro lines. The rooms, although on the smaller side compared to other international chains in North Asia, are immaculately clean and comfortable. The service is outstanding, with extremely polite and helpful staff. However, the dining experience falls short, especially compared to traditional Japanese breakfast options. Overall, a great value for money stay with excellent service and cleanliness.
