The hotel's location is excellent. It's a ten-minute walk from Shimbashi subway station and a five-minute walk to Ginza. Downstairs, there are Lawson, FamilyMart, and 7-Eleven convenience stores. Shimbashi subway station is incredibly convenient, with direct subway lines to Haneda Airport, Narita Airport, and Kamakura. Getting to Disney is also easy, requiring just one transfer at Tokyo Station.From$261

The front desk had staff who spoke Chinese, the room was clean, and the bed was very comfortable. The location was excellent; you could walk to the entire Ginza shopping district. There's a popular ramen place nearby that wasn't very good, but a Yakiniku restaurant called Jojoen (not the one on the Mitsukoshi building) was incredibly delicious. You won't have to worry about food or drinks staying here. The Asakusa Line downstairs goes straight to Narita Airport (if you're not good with transfers, just allow two hours for the trip). I would definitely choose Mitsui Garden again next time I visit.From$280

A very satisfying hotel overall. While the transportation isn't the most convenient, they offer a shuttle bus to the JR station three times an hour, which we used daily and found quite convenient. For the return trip, it's a short walk or you can take the U-line. We were upgraded to a room on the 22nd floor with a beautiful view. The room isn't old at all, and personally, I think it's better than the Hilton.From$413

Reception staff very friendly & helpful, some staff speak good English otherwise translation apps were used. Rooms are relatively large by Tokyo standards with a huge bathroom including separate bath, shower worked very well. Bed very comfortable and pyjamas are excellent - we wanted to purchase but not available, the hotel could make more business there with exclusive Keihan pyjamas! Good range of options for breakfast, we did eat dinner once in the hotel and it was fine but we recommend exploring the nearby roads and side-streets, we stayed six nights and found many excellent local bars & restaurants which we preferred to the tourist spots. Location is great, my elderly parents were traveling with us and it's a nice, quiet area with excellent transport links. Very close to Tsukiji metro station which is only three stops from Tokyo mainline station so convenient for our onward journey to Kyoto. We also appreciated the efforts to minimise waste, water is provided in a Tetrapak which we refilled from the tap, and using the bedside tablet guests can choose how often they want the room cleaning. We highly recommend this hotel and enjoyed our stay very much!From$95

We had a fantastic experience staying at the Tokyo Bay Shiomi Prince Hotel. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly welcoming and professional. The hotel is conveniently located just a few minutes' walk from Shiomi Station, making it super easy to access central Tokyo and Tokyo Disneyland. The room was spotless, modern, and surprisingly spacious by Tokyo standards. I especially appreciated the comfortable Simmons bed, the relaxing ambiance, and the thoughtful layout. The public bath and sauna facilities were a real highlight — perfect for winding down after a busy day of sightseeing. Breakfast at the on-site restaurant, Tide Table Shiomi, offered a great selection of both Western and Japanese dishes, all fresh and delicious. The hotel also has a Family Mart convenience store, which was incredibly handy. This hotel is a great option for families, couples, and even solo travelers. Whether you're visiting for Disney or exploring Tokyo, I highly recommend the Tokyo Bay Shiomi Prince Hotel for a clean, comfortable, and convenient stay!From$252

Very expensive for what you get. Our room was 12sqm and bathroom 2m x 1m - and the rate was twice the price of our Ginza accommodation which was significantly better and was in the heart of Ginza.

Tokyo Station/Nihonbashi/Akihabara/Kinshicho Tokyo|1.84km from downtown
Hoshinoya Tokyo is situated in a tower in Otemachi, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, uniquely blending a traditional Japanese garden with a high-rise hotel concept. While its immediate surroundings are dominated by corporate offices like Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, its location isn't as prime as other similarly priced luxury hotels such as The Peninsula Tokyo or Bulgari, with a noticeable lack of nearby dining options or convenience stores.
The service, on the other hand, truly made guests feel at home. Each floor boasts a dedicated Japanese-style common area, but the atmosphere felt a bit too rigid or rule-bound. For example, when I asked for a second welcome dessert, it wasn't possible.
However, I would strongly advise against staying here for a business trip. Firstly, the hotel's policy of not allowing unregistered guests to enter is quite inconvenient and arguably unsuitable for a business-oriented establishment. Secondly, the hotel itself offers a rich array of experiences – from its two-Michelin-starred Japanese restaurant to kimono fittings, tea ceremonies, kendo classes, hot springs, and sightseeing bicycles. These features highlight its strong appeal for leisure travel, making it less ideal for business.From$1,312

Odaiba Tokyo|4.46km from downtown
Cleanliness: No issues.
Ambiance: I had a room with a view of Ariake Arena, which was generally nice. The bedroom is right as you enter, so all bedrooms are quite spacious. The bathroom is at the very back. If you don't like the bed being right by the entrance, you might want to avoid this. Also, the bedroom doesn't get much natural light because the bathroom is on the outside with a window (a transparent glass bathroom).
Service: If you're coming to the hotel from outside the building, there are absolutely no signs, elevators, or escalators to get to the hotel lobby on the 2nd floor. You have to carry your luggage up the stairs to reach the hotel's main entrance. It's hard to imagine a hotel of this caliber having such an arrangement.
Facilities: It's hard to believe that a hotel at this price point and level doesn't come standard with a bathtub.
To clarify a misconception: no room in this hotel offers a direct view of Big Sight.From$78

This hotel is truly heartwarming. It's located in Hibiya Park, very close to Shimbashi Station. The lobby on the 18th floor offers expansive views and feels bright and grand. We were given a room on the 27th floor, and we could even spot the tip of Tokyo Tower from our window. The room layout was well-designed and fully equipped, including a Japanese shower/bathtub. Although not huge, there was enough space to open two 24-inch suitcases. The twin beds were both 1.2 meters wide, a bit soft, but very comfortable to sleep on. There were plenty of breakfast options, including sashimi rice bowls, and you could help yourself to soft drinks in the lounge. Most of the guests were Westerners, and the staff's English was fluent, making communication smooth. The service was superb! Since our stay coincided with my daughter's birthday, we received a meticulously handwritten card from the hotel staff! We also got a birthday gift, and all our requests for the room were met. I would definitely stay here again on my next visit to Tokyo.From$237

If 100 is a perfect score, this hotel has its pros and cons. The convenient location and room size both deserve a 90. The shower water pressure and the service from most of the staff are at least an 80. However, you can clearly hear the subway from the room, and even with the small window handle adjusted up or down, the noise persists. During my two-night stay, one night I couldn't fall asleep until the subway stopped running in the middle of the night. The next morning, I was woken up by the noise around 7 AM. I groggily recorded a video, but my phone's microphone near the bed didn't capture it well. The actual sound is about one to two times louder than what's in the video. The room also didn't provide earplugs, which is quite unbearable – I'm deducting 70 points for this. There were noticeable marks on the room walls and the bathroom floor, so I'm taking off another 50 points. The carpet is old and somewhat damaged, and the room looks dingy. For a room that costs over 1500 per night, this warrants another 60-point deduction. So, this is a hotel with overly distinct pros and cons.From$231

The deluxe room is quite spacious for Tokyo, making it easy to pack and unpack. However, compared to the room size, the bathroom feels a bit cramped, and the sink drains very slowly. The bedding comfort is just average. Perhaps because I didn't request a higher floor when booking, they assigned me the lowest floor (6F), which was a bit disappointing. Since I was only staying briefly, I didn't bother asking the front desk to change it. From the moment I arrived to check-in and luggage delivery, the overall service awareness and attitude were excellent. The breakfast selection wasn't extensive, and the quality was unremarkable; it didn't leave a lasting impression compared to other hotels I've stayed at in Japan.
Overall, it's an unremarkable hotel – perfectly fine to stay in, but nothing particularly exciting.From$196

It was definitely bigger, and we could easily spread out three 28-inch suitcases, which was really handy. The only downside was that the facilities felt a bit old.

My stay at VIA INN PRIME Nihonbashi Ningyocho was quite good overall. The location is very convenient, close to Ningyocho Station, making it easy to get to Tokyo Station, Ginza, and Ueno. There are also many convenience stores and small restaurants nearby, and it's quiet at night when you return. The room, while not large, was very clean and well-arranged. A pleasant surprise was being able to see the Tokyo Skytree from my window; seeing it lit up at night always brightened my mood, which was a nice little bonus.
The bed was comfortable, and the soundproofing was better than expected, so I slept soundly. The only minor drawback was the 10 AM check-out time, which felt a bit early and made the morning feel rushed. However, the front desk check-out process was very quick and efficient. Overall, it's a practical and hassle-free hotel to stay in, with a great location and good value for money.

We'd already stayed here at the start of our Japan trip (stayed in a twin room) but returned towards the end of our travels and booked two double rooms. They were allocated next to each other, which was just ideal.
Space is small, enough room for one person but a couple would struggle, especially with luggage. As a solo occupant, it was really good. Small double bed was super comfortable. We had rooms 720 and 722, which were on the side of the hotel, away from the main road. This made for a quieter stay.
Efficient blackout blind. Air conditioning was effective, providing heat when required too. Small refrigerator was useful, alongside decent electric kettle. Large screen TV with some international channels.
Bathroom was small but perfectly formed. Fairly spacious shower cubicle, with great pressure and even temperature. Rain forest shower head as well as conventional hose. Typical modern Japanese toilet.
Massage chair was welcomed by me personally as I really enjoyed using it at the end of a busy day but appreciate that it did take up valuable space.
Location ideal for transport connections, convenience stores, nightlife and restaurants.From$120

This was my first time visiting Tokyo, and I stayed at Agora for five days:
🤵♀️ During check-in, although the staff didn't speak Chinese, they provided detailed check-in instructions in Chinese. All the front desk staff I encountered during my stay had excellent attitudes.👍🏻
🧹 The hotel usually cleans rooms every three days. If you need daily cleaning, just put the magnetic sign from your room outside your door before noon on that day.
🛏️ I chose a twin room, and when I opened the door, I found they had pushed two single beds together. The size was decent, and two adults could sleep comfortably without feeling cramped.
📍 The location is excellent. Downstairs, there's a restaurant called Bansuke that serves delicious fried fish ochazuke. Just a short walk away, you'll find FamilyMart, Lawson, and 7-Eleven. There are also drugstores and restaurants at the large intersection outside.
🚇 Higashi-Ginza Station is just around the corner from the hotel entrance, making it very convenient to take the Asakusa Line and Hibiya Line. There's also an express train directly to the airport; just check Google Maps for the schedule. If you prefer to walk to Ginza Station, there's a dedicated underground passage, which is very convenient.
🛍️ If you want to go shopping, most malls are about a 10-minute walk away, and the street is quite lively.
💦 The only downside is that the room is indeed quite small, with barely enough space to lay one suitcase flat. But honestly, for this price, getting such a great location is already very satisfying. The experience was excellent, and I'm grateful to Agora for a wonderful memory of Tokyo.🥰From$200

Central Tokyo Tokyo|2.87km from downtown
This is the hotel I always stay at whenever I visit Tokyo, and it never disappoints.
The location is fantastic. Since the Prince Hotel is right across the street, there are plenty of excellent restaurants and dining options nearby, which is a huge plus.
Transportation is also incredibly convenient. Moving to major districts like Shinjuku, Ginza, and Shibuya by train/subway is fast and easy. If you are looking for a central base in Tokyo with great food and accessibility, I highly recommend staying here.From$219

Ginza/Tsukiji/Shinbashi Tokyo|0.41km from downtown
We had a lovely time at The Royal Park Canvas Ginza 8. It had great location and the room was a good size, more than enough for our family of 3. Staff were friendly and attentive to our needs. We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return. Thank you for the warm hospitality.From$322
