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.

LiangshanpaitasongqinglaituerThe hotel's location and surroundings are excellent. The only minor inconvenience was having to walk all the way around to access the garden downstairs; I'm not sure if we just missed a more direct entrance. On our second day in Tokyo, we experienced a typhoon with strong winds and heavy rain, but the soundproofing in the room was so good we couldn't hear a thing – it was incredibly quiet. Getting around was also very convenient, as it's close to the subway station, making it easy to reach popular areas like Shinjuku, Shibuya, and Ginza.

Guest UserThe room was quite comfortable. The Western restaurant is on the first floor, and that's also where breakfast is served. I particularly loved the pancakes at breakfast! The main course came with a simple self-service salad.
I stayed on the second floor. I asked the front desk for help confirming some items I wanted to buy, and they were very enthusiastic, even helping me make phone calls. There was a lovely Chinese lady there! All the staff were beautiful.
For anyone visiting Akihabara, staying here is incredibly convenient.

Mid-August 2026. I wonder if it's because it rained for two or three days while we were in Tokyo, but why did no one mention how incredibly humid the room was? The duvet was damp and smelly at night, making it really uncomfortable to sleep under. Maybe the air conditioning was set incorrectly? The hotel had it on auto (heating 25 degrees Celsius), which we found too hot. We switched it to cooling 24 degrees, and then discovered the room was very damp, so we changed it to dehumidify at 24.5 degrees. There was a device on the floor that I couldn't tell if it was an air purifier, humidifier, or dehumidifier.
Location: Excellent. It takes a quick 3-minute walk to the subway. There's a 24-hour supermarket to the left when you exit Shiomi Station. A FamilyMart convenience store is right downstairs from the hotel.
Room: The size is probably quite good for Tokyo, aside from the excessive humidity I mentioned. Everything else, like the bedding, towels, and bathtub, was very satisfactory. Though I didn't use the bathtub once, haha; the large public bath on the second floor was more convenient. So, a slightly larger room without a bathtub would be more practical.
Breakfast: Not a huge variety, but the quality was excellent. We thought it was quite good, but it would be even better if they could change up the options slightly. After four days, it did get a bit repetitive~
Public Bath: The absolute best part was the large public bath on the second floor. It was spacious and very comfortable.
Overall, I was still very satisfied. I'll just avoid staying in Tokyo during the August rainy season in the future if all hotels are this humid~

Keio Plaza Hotel Tokyo | A top choice for family trips
Our family trip to Tokyo with the kids exceeded expectations, with many thoughtful details throughout the hotel.
We booked a room with three beds, which was perfect for a family of three – no need for an extra rollaway bed, and plenty of space for comfortable rest. The room also came with a full set of L'Occitane toiletries, which smelled and felt great.
The hotel's location in Shinjuku makes transportation incredibly convenient, with easy access to various attractions. The service was polite and attentive, and services like luggage storage were seamless.
It's an excellent choice for families with children, and I'd definitely prioritize staying here again on my next trip to Tokyo. Highly recommend it to anyone traveling with kids.

AkanefqThis hotel is incredibly spacious for Tokyo, with large, bright rooms offering excellent city views. The building itself hosts a variety of dining options, and there's even a convenience store on the second floor. Plus, there are plenty of restaurants right outside the hotel, making dining incredibly convenient. Transportation is a breeze with easy access to trains, subways, and buses. The only minor drawback is that a walk-in shower in the bathroom would have been even better. All in all, it was an extremely satisfying stay with great value for money!

Guest UserThis is our second time staying here. The hotel is right next to the Ariake Garden mall, practically seamlessly connected. There are plenty of dining options upstairs and shopping is very convenient. Downstairs, there's a large Aeon supermarket, and right outside its exit, at platform 1, you can catch the bus to Haneda Airport. There's also a big Muji store nearby. The hotel offers a free shuttle bus to Ginza from its basement level. While the hotel is situated between two subway lines, neither is too far away, making this location excellent value for money. We booked a family room for two adults and two children, which had four beds. The bathroom and toilet were separate (wet and dry areas), and the room layout was quite good.

Loved it! The room was clean and tidy with a well-designed layout. The kitchen was fully equipped with all the utensils and cookware you could need for breakfast and even full meals. The washing machine has both wash and dry functions, so no need to bring home a pile of dirty laundry. The surrounding area is very quiet, and it's within walking distance to Shin-Marunouchi, KITTE, LABI, and BIC CAMERA. A summer evening stroll by the Imperial Palace is also incredibly relaxing. The transportation is super convenient; the hotel is right above the C6A subway exit, with direct access to the Hanzomon Line, Chiyoda Line, and Marunouchi Line, getting you straight to Omotesando, Shibuya, and Ginza. The only minor downside is the lack of a scenic view from the window; aside from the rooms facing the Imperial Palace, you mostly just see the office buildings across the way.

Guest UserHygiene: All good, just the towel quality could be improved. When dry, it sheds white cotton fibers that easily stick to your body.
Environment: Though small, it has all the essentials, with a gym being a plus point.
Service: Personally, I felt the male staff weren't very genuinely service-oriented. Overall, it was satisfactory.
Facilities: The bed wasn't long enough, likely due to the space constraints of Ginza hotels where every inch counts.

ZenchenkoOverall, the hotel left a pleasant impression. The location is excellent: there are several metro stations nearby, making it very convenient to get to any part of Tokyo.
The breakfasts were tasty and varied – that's one of the hotel's main advantages.
The room turned out to be quite small, which is expected for Tokyo, but there wasn't much free space. Also, the duvet cover was a bit surprising – it had a very unusual design and wasn't very convenient to use.
A particular downside was the air conditioning. Over four nights, I couldn't manage to set a comfortable temperature: either the room was too cold, or the air conditioner barely blew at all. I couldn't find a happy medium.
Otherwise, the hotel is good, especially if a convenient location and a good breakfast are important to you.
