Hotels near Sugamo Park, Tokyo

A very nice stay with good location to Otsuka station and local shops. 4 of us stayed here and it provided good privacy with blinds and the beds were comfortable.

Stayed at this hotel for 6 nights with my family. It's only a 6-minute walk from Otsuka Station, which is super convenient for getting around on the Yamanote Line. The room facilities were complete, and the layout was great. Both the two single beds and the two Japanese futons were very comfortable to sleep on. The bathroom also had a separate wet and dry area. The only downside was that the sink faucet only dispensed cold water, and there was no way to adjust it for hot water. I hope the hotel can make improvements in this regard.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent Stay at R&B Hotel I had a wonderful experience staying at R&B Hotel. From the moment I checked in, the staff was warm, efficient, and always ready to assist with a smile. The check-in process was smooth, and I appreciated how accommodating and professional the team was. The room was spotless, well-organized, and designed with comfort in mind. Despite being compact, it had everything I needed — a comfortable bed, clean linens, reliable Wi-Fi, and thoughtful amenities that made my stay stress-free. The daily housekeeping kept everything fresh and tidy, which I truly valued. One of the highlights was the complimentary breakfast. The freshly baked bread and variety of simple yet satisfying options made for a great start to my mornings. I also appreciated the 24-hour access to certain conveniences like vending machines and laundry facilities, which made the stay even more practical. Location-wise, R&B Hotel is excellent. It’s conveniently close to transport links, shops, and dining options, making it easy to explore the area without any hassle. Overall, R&B Hotel offers incredible value for money. It’s perfect for both short business trips and leisure stays. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and well-located hotel with genuinely kind hospitality. I will definitely be staying here again on my next visit.

I had a wonderful stay at this place! The location is incredibly convenient, just a few minutes’ walk to the Otsuka station, which made getting around very easy. There’s also a mini supermarket nearby, perfect for grabbing snacks or any last-minute essentials. The neighborhood itself is peaceful and quiet, ideal for a relaxing stay. The room was spotless and well-maintained. I really appreciated how complete the amenities were; everything I needed for a comfortable stay was provided. Overall, it was an excellent experience, and I would happily stay here again!

Compared to before, the rooms at Sunshine City Ikebukuro have become much smaller. I booked a room for over 1600, and it was so tiny; I'm not sure what's up with the pricing. The price became lower once I arrived in Japan, it was so expensive to book from my home country! Also, regarding the service, a younger male staff member became impatient after I spoke a few sentences to him using a translation device. Nowadays, younger Japanese people seem less friendly towards Chinese people than older generations. This hotel left a bad impression on me this time, and I won't be staying here again. The breakfast was also monotonous and pretty much Westernized.

The location is great, the metro is maybe 1 min walk. By metro your only a few stops away from any big attractions. And after a long day in the city you can come back to enjoy the onsen. The only bad thing I can say about my stay was the someone in the capsule across from mine snored so loud it was nearly impossible to sleep.

Great value for money, and very clean – perfect for solo travelers. It's really close to the subway station, which makes getting around super convenient. There are tons of places to eat and shop nearby, including many local specialty stores that only accept cash. I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit! Highly recommended!

The hotel is located on the west side of Ikebukuro. Be careful not to be misled by Google Maps when searching for an exit with luggage. Just head west and look for Exit C6 (which has up/down escalators) or Exit 14 (which has an elevator). Google Maps led me to the East Exit near Exit 38, and I had a tough time dragging my suitcases through Ikebukuro Station! There are station maps inside Ikebukuro Station that show which exits have elevators. The owner speaks Chinese, so communication was easy. It's the first time I've found a front desk that speaks Chinese after being in Japan for so long. The hotel feels more like a guesthouse and doesn't have an elevator. Guests on higher floors should be mindful of carrying luggage; fortunately, I was on the second floor this time. The common area has tables, a water dispenser, and a large refrigerator where you can store drinks or food like chocolate. Just be aware it's shared, so bag your items to prevent others from taking them. Unlike other hotels, there's no coffee machine in the common area, but instant coffee packets are available. There's also a microwave to heat up bento boxes. There are two men's and two women's shower rooms on the first floor, and another shower room on the top floor (4th floor). Fresh towels can be found in a bin near the entrance. There's no washing machine or dryer on-site. You'll need to walk across the street to a laundromat, which can be inconvenient if it's raining. The dryers at that laundromat seem more suited for large loads (starting at 8kg), which might be overkill for tourists with fewer clothes. It costs 100 yen for 8 minutes of drying. I chose to dry for 16 minutes and then took my clothes back to the hotel to air dry them overnight with the AC. If you don't mind a bit of a walk, Google Maps can show you another laundromat nearby where you can dry clothes for 10 minutes for 100 yen. Also, you need to buy detergent for 50 yen at the laundromat. (However, if the owner is around, you might be able to get a little laundry detergent from them. I once had some cotton dolls that needed cleaning and the owner helped me out with some detergent for a quick wash – just don't ask for too much.) The room is quite spacious, and the bed is wide. There's a small table for using a laptop or other items. All facilities are well-equipped. There are plenty of hooks for hanging clothes directly opposite the air conditioner, and you can adjust the airflow to help dry them. Upon entering the hotel, you need to take off your shoes and put them in the public shoe cabinet, which doesn't have a lock. There are shared slippers, but I brought my own as I felt the shared ones might not be very hygienic. Be careful not to leave your personal slippers in the common area; keep them in your room, otherwise, someone might wear them away (one of mine was taken, luckily I had another pair). When going upstairs, socks are fine. Near the hotel, there's a supermarket called Akashi Zatsujiten where you can buy inexpensive drinks, cheap fruits like bananas, and discounted bento boxes in the evening. It's open from 10:00 AM to 5:00 AM. The owner was very kind and helped me receive a package, which they placed directly in my room. It was merchandise from a Bandori Live event. A few days before the event, there weren't many Bandori fans, mostly Caucasians and Indians. But in the following days, many more Chinese people arrived, all carrying cotton dolls. You can email the hotel to ask for the package receiving address, just remember to include your name. Overall, this hotel is pretty good for Tokyo. It's close to Ikebukuro, making it convenient for travel, and also great for Bandori fans doing a pilgrimage. My suggestion for the hotel: Please add a curtain divider between the two public shower stalls downstairs. Currently, only one curtain covers both, though I haven't encountered two people showering at the same time yet.

Very cosy little apartment, in the room have washing machine which helped us a lot as a family. 3 big beds was very comfortable . Quite area within 7 min to green line metro station with which you can reach any sightseeing. Lots of combiny stores. The only thing was a bit trouble to wait for the email with apartment access code as we were traveling and not everywhere I could access to my email. If they could provide the access at list a day in advance will be much better. As they provide you with this code on the same day and only from check in time. Overall was good. It’s best to book if you’re not planning to stay in the room for whole day. Just for sleep recommended. Can’t make much noise the wall is very tin.

The hotel is located at the North Exit of Otsuka Station on the Yamanote Line, a five-minute walk after getting off the train. Breakfast is à la carte, with four options. I wasn't used to the Japanese style breakfast, but the others were fine, though there was no fruit or milk. The bed in the room is on top, with a sofa underneath, which my child really liked. They charge extra for using the spare bedding from the closet, so it's better to bring your own sheet. My room, an even-numbered one, was right by the Toei train line, so there was noise when trains passed by.
