The hotel was good. It felt like a lot of effort was put into making the hotel very reliant on technology, i.e., there’s a QR code for that. Instead of talking you through the amenities, you were asked to watch a video. It was a good hotel for the one day we had there and its proximity to the train station.

Property looks fantastic but missed for me on some of the basics. Timely elevators, choice of food at breakfast, availability of advertised room service, etc. Probably fun for a younger crowd, but not for us.

A mixed review of this hotel. The check in experience was somewhat confusing. The person checking us in told us that the hotel has 2 different kinds of cleaning service - a full service and an “eco” service where only the towels are changed. At no point were we asked which service we wanted, so we assumed we can decide each day (I should add that the person checking us in was not Japanese, so less change of potential communication issues). Lastly we were given some 500 yen vouchers to spend in the hotel. We wanted the full cleaning service, so the next morning we left the “please make up my room” sign on the door. When we got back late in the afternoon we discovered that our room had not been cleaned. When checking with reception, we were told we had chosen the “eco” cleaning option on check in. This was not true, we were never asked to choose between the 2 options on check in, it seems that an assumption was made on our behalf. Anyway, we had the cleaning option changed and on subsequent days our room was cleaned (sort of, see later comments). Cons of this hotel: - There is no safe in the room. At the price they are charging, there should be a safe. - We stayed on level 8, but the view from our room was that of air conditioning units on a neighbouring roof - not very scenic. - The “full” cleaning service is not very good and too basic. Pros: Location

I am still unsure how this accommodation is 3-star! It would be 4.5 star is Australia. I could not fault it. The top floor bar was so beautiful - we spent each night in this space having drinks and substantial bar snacks - beautiful night time view. Comfortable beds and lovely bathrooms! The rooms were small but you know that when you are booking. Given you are not in your room much when you are travelling this is not an issue., especially with 5 other communal spaces in the hotel. I never leave reviews but I would highly recommend staying here!

Suitable for a few days

This hotel is in a good location. The room was quite small, especially the bed, but it was suitable for 3 nights. All the amenities are at the front desk instead of in your room which is a little inconvenient. There is a rental service for electrical items etc which was good. All in all, can’t complain.
