10/10 Excellent
"Modest sized room but very comfortable. Only downside was a large office chair that took up way too much space. Room was obviously designed for a business trip… Coming from Australia having laundry facilities available is a real winner. Overall, well located, excellent amenities and very helpful staff."

"Amazing hotel!!! We stayed four nights and it was the best hotel of our trip to Japan! The location and all the amenities were fantastic : the incredible breakfast, the happy hour with free wine, drinks and food. It really feels like a luxurious hotel. The only con is the size of the room but it shouldn't stop you from choosing this hotel. The bed is very comfortable and the room is very beautiful. I would go back without thinking."

"This hotel was clean and very comfortable; in a great location with walkable access to lots of restaurants, the trains were close to the location. There is a stairway at the corner that leads you down to the underground where you can find many options to eat and shop. We ate there several times. We also enjoyed the restaurant right across the street one flight down called Batten Yokatoh. Excellent food"
