Sotetsu Fresa Inn Properties in Tokyo

This hotel is super convenient! It's right by a subway station and a convenience store. It's also really close to central Shinjuku, and you can walk to Kabukicho Ichibangai in just over 10 minutes. Self check-in is a breeze, and you can store your luggage here too. Plus, you can grab complimentary toiletries and bath amenities from downstairs. There are also a few small restaurants right across the street, which is really handy for meals.

It’s an affordable hotel in Ginza. The room was too small for my large suitcase. Toiletries can be collected at the reception area. I personally appreciated the ice maker (because it is summer) since the fridge turns off when the key card is not in the room switch. I paid ¥1.000 to extend my check-out time to 12noon. There’s a city tax of ¥300 to be paid at the property. There is no safety deposit box.

The hotel's location is excellent, making it very convenient to get in and out. The hotel entrance is small, with the lobby on the second floor, but check-in and check-out were smooth and easy. The room was quite spacious, and the amenities provided were good. Breakfast was a set menu, and it tasted delicious.

1. The first time I walked to the hotel, it took about 10 minutes, mainly because I was new to the area and needed to find my way. Once I got familiar, it was much quicker. I had read other reviews saying the North-West exit was the closest, but honestly, the North-West exit is incredibly hard to find 🤣. I just exited from the West exit. The hotel is to your right when you have your back to the JR station (Takashimaya is on your left). After following navigation for 4-5 minutes, you'll see an elevated walkway. Take the escalator up to the walkway (I finally saw the North-West exit next to the escalator 🤣). Walk along the left side for about 20-30 meters, and you'll see a tall building with an upward escalator on its exterior. Take two escalator segments, and the hotel is through the automatic glass doors on your left. Alternatively, from the JR station West exit (just before you completely exit the concourse), the Newman shopping mall entrance is on your right. Go into the mall, walk to the end, and take the escalator up to the 2nd floor, which leads to the connecting walkway. However, if you're not familiar, it can be confusing, so I'd recommend sticking to the first set of directions I gave. 2. Check-in at the hotel is done via self-service machines. The staff is on hand to assist, and the machines also have a Chinese option, making it very easy. 3. I booked a twin room, and the room size is quite generous by Japanese standards, which was nice. The shampoo was surprisingly good; my hair felt super soft and smooth after washing. I would definitely book here again if I visit Yokohama in the future.

The room had everything I needed. And the bed was comfortable. The hotel has a laundry area, so I was able to wash and dry clothes. There was also a microwave in the lounge room, which came in handy on days I didn’t want to eat out. There are a few convenience stores close by, with a 7-eleven next door. It was really easy to walk to the metro lines and Kanda station was well linked to the rest of the city. The area was quiet at night, which I liked after a busy day.

The hotel's location is excellent, just a short walk from the subway. There are plenty of dining options nearby, a 24-hour supermarket, and 7-Elevens are everywhere. The front desk staff, both young men and women, are very nice. They have a microphone that can translate various languages on the fly, which is very smart. Check-in and check-out are both self-service, quick and convenient. There's a magnetic sticker on the inside of the room door. If you want housekeeping, you just put up the blue sticker. If not, cleaning is done every three days. Small room amenities are available for self-service on the first floor as needed. The room is indeed a bit small, but this is Tokyo, so you can't be too picky. I'd likely choose this hotel again next time I visit.

Stayed here for an exhibition and it was incredibly convenient. The only downside is that the price was much higher than usual during the exhibition period. There's a direct train line to Shibuya and Shinjuku, which was great as I didn't have to transfer. The hotel's surroundings are quiet and close to a university, making for a comfortable stay. There's a supermarket about 800 meters away, perfect for grabbing food, and on the second floor of the supermarket, there's a drugstore that's quite affordable and never crowded, which I really liked. The hotel provides a very comprehensive set of amenities, including toiletries, facial masks, makeup remover, and skincare products, all of which were excellent.

We forwarded our luggages to Sotetsu Fresa Inn Tamachi 2 days ahead of our arrival. Hotel stored our luggages securely for our check-in. Hotel locates 3 mins walk from JR Tamachi and Subway Mita station. Very convenient to take either train. Asakusa line also runs all the way to Haneda airport without changing trains. Bedroom is large enough to wide open our luggage. These luggages can also be kept under the beds for space management. Breakfast is buffet style with variety of hot and cold dishes. Not a lot but worth the spending. Check-in and check-out are super fast with automatic booths. Amenities are provided at the reception.

This was my second time staying at this place, will continue booking with Sotetsu Fresa Inn if i ever visit Tokyo again. Bed was big for a solo traveller. Super clean and tidy. Basic hower amenities were provided and other items such as toothbrush, hairbrush, bath salts were available near the reception. Super convenient location too

The location was great, only one stop away from Tokyo Station. There are lots of restaurants in the area. Lawson is less than 2 minutes away. The ventilation fan in the bathroom of my room was out of order. The staff immediately offered to change room for me. I was very happy with their service. You can request to get another pillow if you are not satisfied with the one they have inside the room. You can get supplies like toothbrush at the ground floor lobby.
