Super good location at main road, we arrived late at close to 11pm and fast check in, efficient,  can pick up things you need like comb, toothbrush etc, we went down very near by has few Pub/restaurant still open to have some hot meal and drink. The room a little small but all you need is all there and clean, plus an massager chair 😅
I will recommend.

This is my first time traveling in Japan, I have been to two hostels earlier before this hotel, I can say that Daiichi Inn is my favorite and definitely worth the price. Very clean, the room is perfect size, nearby Ikebukuro station which is easy to travel around. Many restaurants and shops. The staffs are really polite and can speak English. You need to tap the keycard in the elevator to go up to the floor. Safety 👍🏻 I will come back to stay here again if I visit Japan next time.

Convenient location next to the subway Oimachi. 
Lots of food options. 
Hotel car park is quite a challenge to locate. Car park does not belong to hotel. Belongs to Times. So look out for Times car park entrance as you circle the building complex. Mixed development with restaurants and shops. 
Locating the lobby was also a challenge. Asked around. 
Automated check in /  check out with assistance available. 
Room is cleaned on every third day. Fresh towels available on demand.

The location is very good as it’s closed to the JR station. Also some restaurants are nearby. Easy to go airport by train as well. 

My room is a corner twin bed room so it’s not too small. The room is clean. But just the curtains cannot block all the sunlights during day time. Overall is a good place to stay.

The location is quite close to Shimbashi Station, but it's still a 5-6 minute walk. It's not particularly close to the center of Ginza; walking there takes about the same amount of time as taking public transportation. However, it's very close to Don Quijote! Most of the good restaurants in this area are near the station, in Yurakucho and Shimbashi.

The room is a bit small; we could barely open two suitcases. The best part is the separate wet and dry areas in the bathroom, and the large bathtub. It was very comfortable to soak in it every day after coming back. The soundproofing in the room was also quite good; we hardly heard any noise.

Coming from Haneda Airport, I took the Keikyu Line directly to Takaracho Station. It's about a 200-meter walk from Exit A5, taking roughly half an hour in total. However, it was quite a hassle as I couldn't find an elevator, which was tough with a big suitcase. The hotel is pretty close to Nihonbashi on foot, and about a ten-minute walk to Tokyo Station for the Shinkansen. The Ginza shopping area is around 900 meters away, and Ginza-Kyobashi Station's Exit 6 is right outside the hotel entrance. The room size was moderate; opening a 28-inch suitcase was a bit tight, but that's typical for hotels in Japan. The breakfast here was excellent, considered quite rich for a chain hotel in Japan.

The hotel boasts an excellent location right next to a subway station, and they offer a shuttle service to the Disney Resort, though reservations are required in advance. Our triple room had a pleasant view, but unfortunately, we couldn't see the Skytree from it. However, you can head up to the 18th-floor observation window for panoramic views of Tokyo, including the Skytree. The room was spacious by Japanese standards, more than enough for a family trip. The facilities were complete and very clean, and there's an ice machine available on our floor.

The hotel's location is great, quite close to the subway station, and it's convenient to walk to Ginza. In my opinion, the one major drawback is that the staff's English proficiency is absolutely terrible! On both occasions I've stayed here, the front desk staff could barely speak English during check-in, requiring a translation device, which wasted a lot of time and effort. Even more ridiculous, when I called from my room to request an extra pillow, the staff member who answered couldn't understand English. We repeated the English word for ”pillow” at least ten times, and even spelled out the letters one by one, but it was still useless – we simply couldn't communicate. Overall, the hotel has a good location and the rooms are generally decent, but the English level of the staff is genuinely the worst I've encountered in any Japanese hotel.

I chose to stay at this hotel for a weekend. First, the location is great – very convenient for getting to Ginza, and there are plenty of dining options nearby, plus it's right next to a theater.

The room was a bit cramped. It would be fine for one person, but for two, it would be quite awkward. There was a massage chair in the room, but I didn't get around to using it during my two-day stay. The bathroom has a shower, which was acceptable.

The breakfast offered a good variety of dishes, but the portions for each item were very small, which made me a bit hesitant to serve myself. I can understand that they might be trying to avoid waste. On the bright side, the bread was replenished very promptly, and there was a coffee machine where you could make different types of coffee.

Near the front desk, there were complimentary tea bags and lotions available. Overall, the service attitude was excellent – very friendly and polite. Next time, I'll opt for a larger room.

This is a stylish hotel in a good location.  The hotel is about 10 minutes walk from JR Tokyo station, however as I had a lot of luggage with me I took a taxi from Tokyo station, which cost about 1000 Yen. The entrance to the hotel is a little hard to see - there is an entrance at street level with an automatic sliding door. The door opens to reveal the entrance to a restaurant, you then have to turn left to find the lifts which only go to the 14th floor, where the reception is. After checking-in there are a different set of lifts that go to the floors where the guest rooms are. The reception area, as with the rest of the hotel is stylish - there was a lady dressed in Kimono to help guests at the lifts!
I had booked a single room , but I was upgraded to a double room free of charge. This room was a good size by Tokyo standards, with a separate toilet and a separate shower room with a bath. The washbasin was in the entrance hall, not in the bathroom.
There was no desk or office chair in the room, but there was a table and corner sofa. There were power and USB sockets by the bed.
As I wanted to use a laptop, I had to move the table close to the bed, so that I could plug the laptop into the power socket sit on the sofa. This wasn't the most comfortable arrangement!
I would also have preferred to have the wash basin in the bathroom rather than in the entrance hall. The floor tended to get wet where I walked from the entrance door to the bed area.
Even though this is a stylish hotel in a good location, with good staff and facilities I wouldn't stay here again. I need a work desk and chair to use a laptop which this room does not have. It is a boutique hotel rather than a business hotel, more suited to guests that don't need to work from the room.

I saw some really negative reviews after I booked, so I was quite worried before checking in. However, my actual experience far exceeded my expectations. The hotel is indeed a bit old, and the facilities show signs of wear and tear, but the cleanliness and service were excellent. The breakfast had a good variety, pretty much catering to all needs. What truly makes this hotel stand out is its location. Currently, the Umeda airport bus stop is right downstairs, and the departure point is Sanbangai, about a 5-minute walk – incredibly convenient. If you exit the hotel on the second-floor sky bridge and turn left, you can reach Osaka Station, and walking through Osaka Station will lead you to Daimaru and Hanshin department stores. Yodobashi Camera is right downstairs. If you exit the hotel on the first floor and turn right, ten meters away is LINKS, which has a decent-sized supermarket in the basement – perfect for buying bento boxes with a much wider selection than FamilyMart. There are also signs from the second-floor sky bridge directing you to Umeda Station. All in all, my stay was a very good experience.

This was by far the most comfortable hotel room we stayed in throughout Japan. It was incredibly spacious, easily fitting four open suitcases. The location is fantastic, right in the heart of the Umeda shopping district, with endless malls to explore. As a new hotel, the decor is beautiful. It's a shame they don't have their own large public bath, though there's a paid one downstairs. While the train station isn't far, navigating Umeda's complex layout meant a tiring 10-minute walk back to the hotel every day after all our exploring.

PS: The smoking room was a bit mediocre. In June 2026, a corner twin room was roughly 1,000 JPY per night.

The location is incredibly convenient. It's very close to the airport shuttle stop, and Sanbang Street is right across from the hotel. There are tons of great food options nearby, and the subway station is just a short walk away. Department stores and electronics shops are also within a five-minute walk, making it super easy to go shopping.

Service: If you check in with a staff member, it can be very slow. Some front desk staff seem unfamiliar with their duties and can be quite stiff in their demeanor. However, the room service staff were excellent. Due to the prime location, I would definitely stay here again.

The hotel's location directly above Shin-Osaka Station is incredibly convenient, with many restaurants nearby making dining easy. However, the service was quite poor. When I handed our passports to the front desk for check-in, speaking in English, a rather unpleasant person from the staff abruptly came over and chastised my son for using the front desk's touch screen. When my son showed his residence card and responded in Japanese, his attitude completely changed. Given their apparent unfriendliness towards Chinese people, I would advise Chinese travelers to think twice before choosing this hotel.

Although the hotel is quite old, I can say that it is well maintained and clean. Our room is very spacious by Japanese standards (given that Japanese hotels are notorious for having small rooms). The staff are very courteous and helpful. The location is good, around 10 minutes walk from the subway station. It is also nearby a lot of malls and restaurants. I think the only downside for me is that the use of some facilities (such as swimming pool and gym) requires additional charge.

The location is fantastic; you can see the hotel right from Fukushima Station. There's a food street downstairs and a Hankyu supermarket (definitely worth a visit if you have time! Lots of great, affordable stuff).

When we checked in, staff helped us use the self-service machine, and our luggage, which we'd sent ahead via Yamato Transport, was brought out to us at the same time.

The front desk area also provides complimentary toiletries like toothbrushes and combs, as well as tea bags, for guests to pick up themselves.

The room is small but has everything you need, though you can really only open one suitcase. 😂

Later, we needed to send our luggage to the airport. Luckily, we found a Chinese-speaking staff member, but we still had to fill out all the forms ourselves. I'm not sure why all the guides I read said the front desk would help with this. Since we can't write Japanese, it took us almost half an hour to fill out the three forms.

There's also a really delicious yakitori place near the hotel! I highly recommend checking it out.

The location is incredibly convenient. Fukushima Station is right outside the hotel, and Umeda is just one stop away, making it incredibly handy. There's a convenience store downstairs, a yakitori place right across the street, and even a delicious revolving sushi restaurant on the hotel's first basement floor – all excellent dining options! A pretty famous Oden restaurant (about a 7-8 minute walk away) is also worth checking out! Our family of four had a great rest with the four beds provided. Plus, it's not far from Universal Studios either.

The staff were all very friendly, and the view was also excellent with great facilities. The only downside was that the hotel room was too small; once you opened a suitcase, it was impossible to move around, especially with two suitcases, which was quite a hassle. Downstairs, there's a subway station and a shopping street, which is very convenient, but it can also be quite noisy due to the subway.

This stay was in a Japanese-style room. The layout was conventional, not very spacious, and a bit dated, but the cleanliness was good. The hotel's two elevators are quite small, leading to long waits during peak hours, which is inefficient. Both breakfast and dinner were delicious and noteworthy.

The bathhouse is divided into public and guest-only sections: the public bath on the 2nd-3rd floors doesn't provide towels but has lockers; the guest-only bath on the GF floor offers hand towels but no lockers, so it's advisable not to bring valuables. Overall, the experience was decent.

The hotel's hillside location makes walking a bit inconvenient, but they offer a shuttle service to the station! You can call the front desk to book it!
