We booked a double and a triple room for the five of us, and the hotel turned out to far exceed our expectation. Our stay was very comfortable and the staff very friendly. The staff spoke a bit of English which helped a lot. The hotel is very closely located to exciting shopping alleys and there are lots of places... more

Location - 5 minutes walk from one of the main stations in Tokyo - Ueno (critically on the JR Yamanote line aka london circle line, as well as lots of other lines). This is a great base from which to travel round tokyo. - Don't miss out on the fantastic street markets south of Ueno station Service - Excellent. Considering... more

My family of 4 stays in New Izu in late Jun for 4 days. We had a pleasant experience. Like many other reviewers have described, the hotel has small yet clean room and friendly staff. My family of 4 stayed in one Japanese room. They put one more set of bedding in the room, which made the small room even... more

Location is great for first time Tokyo travellers. It took a bit over an hour to get there from Narita with Keisei Skyliner to Ueno. Tokyo Metro station and JR Yamanote station are a few minutes walk from the hotel. Hotel is easy to find with the instructions you get from the hotel and you can use Google street view... more

At its moderate... more

The Japanese style rooms are really great, way more room compared to the western but without the luxury of a real bed. The futons in the Japanese style... more

I stayed in New Izu Hotel twice, in 2007 and 2008. Very good placed, close to Ueno Station. Rooms are very small, but clean and comfortable. Japanese-style are much better, as in small western-style rooms, having furniture, there is not any place to open your luggage other than on the bed :) In Japanese-style rooms also baths are bigger and... more

We stayed at New Izu Hotel for a total of 5 nights at the beginning of December 2008. We would happily recommend it to anyone else traveling on a budget. We had three types of rooms; a single, double and a quad. The single and double were small but the quad was reasonably sized. The rooms were clean and well... more

Very good value for location. Close to shopping and transport. more
