I flew ANA from Chicago, transiting through Tokyo on my way back home, and decided to stay for three days in Tokyo. My flight back to Shanghai was from T2, so I chose this hotel. After landing at T3, I took the airport bus to T2. The hotel is located on the second floor of the terminal, near the ANA domestic check-in area. The room was indeed quite small, but perfectly fine for a single traveler. It only had standard amenities; no makeup remover, lotion, or body cream. The room was well-maintained and clean, and you could choose your cleaning preference daily.

When booking, I requested a high-floor, good-view, and quiet room. The front desk gave me the highest floor, the 7th. Upon checking in at night, I noticed the room faced Terminals T1 & T3, with a construction site below. Thankfully, the soundproofing was excellent, so my rest wasn't disturbed. To my surprise, on a clear morning the next day, I could clearly see Mount Fuji from my room window!

Getting to the city center from the hotel was also very convenient. You can take the Tokyu Line from T2 to near Tokyo Station in about 30 minutes. Alternatively, you can transfer to the JR line at Shinagawa to reach Shibuya, Shinjuku, Ikebukuro, and other areas. On my second day, I even left at 7 AM to take the Tobu Nikko Limited Express from Tobu Asakusa Station for a day trip to Nikko.

I didn't book breakfast beforehand but purchased a buffet breakfast at the front desk (original price 3300 JPY, guest discount price 2800 JPY). The breakfast was quite good, offering both Japanese and Western options. The ingredients were fresh and high quality, and items were replenished promptly. Breakfast hours are from 5 AM to 10 AM, which is very convenient for those catching early flights. Additionally, right outside the hotel are a row of souvenir shops, where you can get tax-free shopping for purchases over 5000 JPY.

The only minor inconvenience is that to get to the ANA international departures, you have to walk through the domestic check-in area from one end of the terminal to the other, then go up to the 3rd floor. This can take over 10 minutes, especially if you're pulling luggage.

The hotel's location is superb! This is my third time staying here, and this time I was on the 24th floor. The room was spacious enough for four large suitcases and two carry-ons. The hotel's buffet breakfast on the 25th floor offers a wide variety of options. I'll definitely choose this hotel again for my next visit.

We had a great stay at Shibuya Stream Hotel. The service was excellent, and the staff kindly allowed us to check in earlier, which we really appreciated. The location is very convenient and easy to find, with great access to transport and nearby attractions - Shibuya Sky. The room was clean, modern, and stylish. Overall, a very comfortable stay—highly recommended!

The hotel staff are generally helpful. Hotel is accessible to train station, bus interchange, eateries, local market, and malls. There is also a lovely neighborhood park with a lake nestled in Kichijoji. Our family enjoyed exploring the small shophouses lined along small streets in the vicinity. Was surprised to stumble upon several thrift shops and 2nd hand electronic store.

Overall room is generally clean but our bathroom had a strong stench of urine hence, giving 4* rating for cleanliness. Location is good is 5*. One of the reasons I chose this hotel is because the pickup point for the express limousine bus to Haneda airport is just a stone throw from hotel.

Fantastic location just a cross road away from Shibuya Station , and a hop and skip away from Hachiko statue and Shibuya crossing.We got in via Narita Express and dragged our luggage across the street to the hotel which was easy to find once you spot Bic Camera and McDonalds. Room was tiny but still very comfy and does the job if you wanted to be very close to the train station. Very quiet too so we slept very well. Plenty of amenities including laundry machine and dryers. Great spot for shopping and eating. Highly recommended if you don't mind small rooms.

We liked this hotel is near at the subway and there’s a lot of restaurants nearby. But We traveled with our 2 babies 3y/o and 7months and we used a lots of clothes and this hotel don’t have a washing machine 😞. They offer laundry in house but it’s expensive. And then they gave us a 2 twins bed and push it together but didn’t put anything in the middle so my 7 months old baby got stuck in the middle all the time 😞.

Such an amazing stay for 8 nights here with my family . Completely felt at home with the plentiful amenities which included daily hand wipes for using while out. Room was impeccably clean, superior customer service, beds were incredibly comfortable with high quality bedding, and the list goes on. Also a great location, in Shibuya, but not directly in the busy section. Would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to friends and family or stay here again. Honestly the BEST hotel I've stayed in Japan!!!

The room is nice but there is no bathtub in the room which is not convenient for us because we have small children with us. The hangers in the entrance right side were covered with dust. There were coffee and water in the room since we have children we hope to have juice for the kids too.
The breakfast was very good, the cook and servers are very polite. The bread and miso soup was very good.

I come to Tokyo several times a year, staying a fortnight or more each time. This time I spent seven nights at The Capitol Hotel Tokyu.

The room faced Hie Shrine. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows I could see the shrine's copper roof and half of Tokyo's skyline. The décor was modern without excess; the layout flowed easily, Bose speakers hidden in the walls, another set in the bathroom ceiling, connected by a 3.5mm jack. The curtains were motorized, though you hardly needed to close them.

The turndown service. I would leave in the evening and return late to find the room changed: only the hallway light and bedside lamp left on, a bottle of water and a glass on the nightstand, two chocolates beside them. The evening tea and teacup, previously stored in the cabinet, had been moved next to the coffee machine. These changes were so slight you had to think back carefully to confirm they had happened at all. The temperature and humidity had been adjusted. As if the room itself remembered your habits.

Room service fell short of the ryokan in Hakone or Lake Toya, but well above the ordinary hotel. Each day I made two or three cups of complimentary coffee, played music, read, wrote. In seven days I finished three books. The research ahead began to take shape.

There were drawbacks. No washing machine, but a decent laundromat ten minutes' walk away—a chance to wander the streets of Akasaka. The room provided HDMI and ethernet ports but no cables; for those who came to rest, perhaps a mercy. The minibar fridge was mostly occupied by drinks for purchase, same as the Imperial, though there was still room for my sparkling water.

The day I left it was half past five and fully dark. I could barely make out the faces of the bellhop and the taxi driver. Together they loaded my luggage into the boot. I wished the bellhop a happy new year in Japanese and told her I liked her hat. She smiled and returned the greeting. As the taxi pulled out of the underground drive, I thought of the inns Kawabata once wrote about: what had to be sought in the mountains of snow country can now be reached by elevator from the B2 exit of a metro station.

I have watched the Shinagawa Prince Hotel loosen quietly over time, slip a little. That kind of decline is rarely one great error. It begins the day someone forgets to leave a glass of water, neglects to move a packet of tea, omits a newspaper. As for The Capitol Hotel Tokyu: in Japanese, what I experienced over these seven days is called ちょうどいい.

I had a wonderful stay at Sapporo Stream Hotel from 11–18 April, in a Superior+ room, and it exceeded my expectations.

The room was modern, spotless, and well designed, with ample space to relax after a day of exploring Sapporo. The highlight was definitely the bed and mattress—I slept incredibly well every night, better than at home. The room was also quiet, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped, including a large-sized Panasonic air purifier/humidifier, which was especially helpful in the dry weather.

The hotel location is unbeatable—subway is direct access from the basement, connected to Cocono Susukino shopping mall, and within walking distance of Ramen Alley, Ichiran, EDW pancakes, famous soup curry spots, and Nijo Market. It made getting around and dining out extremely convenient.

I stayed for 8 days and really appreciated the daily housekeeping (not always common in Japan). There are washer-dryer on Level 8 (4 in total). A tip: avoid doing laundry at night as it gets busy—afternoons are much quieter. Using the time to shop or grab lunch nearby works perfectly. Also, don't overfill the machine; slightly more than half full works best and helps clothes dry more efficiently.

Overall, everything felt well-organised and guest-focused, making the stay very comfortable and stress-free. I would absolutely recommend Sapporo Stream Hotel and would happily stay here again on my next visit.

Since it's an older hotel, the facilities and decor are pretty standard. Because of its prime location in Sapporo, the price is a bit high. Compared to a similarly priced hotel I stayed at in Hakodate, this one felt a bit lacking. Plus, they're promoting eco-friendliness, so they only clean every three days unless you specifically request it. However, this hotel is a common meeting point for many tour groups and buses, making it super convenient if you book one-day round trips online, or have ski or airport transfers. The location is excellent, right in Susukino. My suitcase accidentally got mixed up with another tour group's because it's a meeting point, but the front desk staff were incredibly helpful, contacting their driver to bring it back. So, their service is really top-notch.

I stayed here for an ARASHI concert. When I booked, there weren't many hotels left. This one had a decent location, and at the time, the price was relatively affordable, even though it was still just under 2100 yen for one night.

Facilities: The hotel is 30 years old, but I found the facilities to be perfectly adequate. Plus, there's a nice vanity area outside the bathroom where you can sit and get ready. The room itself was also quite spacious.

Service: The service was very good. When I booked, there were no non-smoking rooms available, but I emailed the hotel, and they said they could prepare the room for me with a smoke-free treatment. Indeed, there was no cigarette smell when I checked in.

The hotel room wasn't as big as I'd imagined, but it was larger than typical Japanese hotel rooms, fitting two suitcases comfortably. The front desk staff generally communicated well in English, though they occasionally misunderstood requests. The hotel breakfast was excellent and unique, with a wide variety of delicious options. Downstairs, there's a Hanafru dessert shop where you can enjoy parfaits, and a Michelin-starred unagi restaurant, ”Takeyatei.” It's about a 15-minute walk from Shinsaibashi, which is quite convenient overall. The only downside is the noisy biker gangs that cruise the Osaka city center at night; even the hotel's soundproof windows couldn't block out the noise, so earplugs are recommended.

Not the kind of hotel that tries to impress you.
This one just quietly does its job… better than most.

Rooms? Small la—Japan standard. You open luggage, suddenly feel like you doing yoga with your suitcase.
But clean. Proper clean. Not “we spray Febreze and pray” clean.

Location ah… this one solid.
You step out, Umeda already hugging you—food, trains, chaos, neon, everything within walking distance.
You get lost also cannot cry, just turn one corner, got 7-Eleven to emotionally support you.

Service? Polite until you feel guilty for existing.
No drama, no nonsense—just efficient like a well-run terminal shift.

I stayed for two nights, which was perfect after a fun day at Universal Studios Japan – I could just come back and relax. The hotel is surrounded by a bustling shopping street with plenty of restaurants and shops. I even grabbed some Sushiro takeout to enjoy back at the hotel. The room was very spacious, and I especially loved the three-part bathroom setup which was super convenient. All the bath amenities were well-stocked too. In the evenings, I could pop down to the 24-hour Lawson downstairs to buy a couple of onigiri to store in the mini-fridge. Each floor also has a microwave, so I could just heat them up before heading out the door in the morning.
