“Tour around the world - step 6”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 December 2011

I stayed 2 days at the beginning of March.
The hotel is very close to the station of Ueno, very convenient when arriving from Narita airport (express train). The day of my arrival it was raining heavily, I got drenched. At the front desk the staff were professional but very, very unsociable, not at all empathetic.
The room was very small, but very clean and warm. Bathroom was also small but with all kind of comfort, and the toilet is most advanced with the bidet incorporated.
I had dinner at the Italian restaurant of the hotel. It wasn’t cheap but quality was good.
The location was good also for its proximity to the station and subway, allowing me to reach easily all Tokyo attractions.

“very clean and nice”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 December 2011

The hotel was very close to Ueno station. There is also a breakfast buffet for 1300 yen on the first floor. They did not have many selctions though and the food was a bit cold. I would not recommend it if you expect it like Vegas styled breakfast buffets.. It was a little disappointing. I loved the air purifier and the face steamer as room amenities. The room was clean but the brown cushions on the bed was a bit smelly. Other than that, it was good to stay at this hotel.

“Great value and location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 December 2011

We stayed here 3 nights in mid-November for our vacation in Tokyo. The hotel is good for its price level and the location is great: across the street from Ueno Station, several subway stations nearby, not far from Asakusa. We ended up taking taxis a lot but it was by choice, there were plenty of mass transit options and it would be feasible to walk to Asakusa. The room was extremely small, but we expected that. Front desk staff was very helpful. Hotel is very clean and modern. We especially appreciated the free wifi!

“Super classy”

Nice hotel! Good service.
In your room you have (free of charge):
Bathtub in a nice bathroom, big flatscreen TV, a fridge, free airconditioner/heater, Ice bucket, teacups with a water kettle and tea, a sturdy safe, a really comfortable bed and free internet (about 1MBps real speed)

The location is really great, just a 3-5 minute walk from Ueno subway station. (Someone before said that this hotel is "really not in Tokyo", that's not true Tokyo is just big, not everything is around Tokyo central station. Ueno is one if the busier stations in Tokyo. So I would say quite central)
You have both the Ginza line, Hibiya line, Yamanote line and the Airport train stopping here. Does not get any better than that.
The closest subway exit is literally 30 meters from the hotel exit (check google street view, go left when you exit the hotel)

That is all I really want from a hotel, if it had had a pool, a sauna and a gym it would deserve 6 stars =)

Breakfast is good too btw! Very Japanese/Contenental mixed in a bit of a weird way but hey :)

Room Tip: Try to get one a fair bit up in the hotel to get away from the street/car noise. It's got like 1...

“Location, location, location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 November 2011

I found this to be a great location - within a couple of blocks of Ueno station (Narita Skyliner stops here) and less than a mile from Asakusa. This is a typical little Tokyo room hotel but very clean and well appointed. I think we startled the staff in that we were the only gaijin staying there but we found everyone polite and accomodating. I would definitely stay again - no outside noise heard though we were on a main street, comfortable beds, and lots of breakfast/coffee places to choose in the morning. There is a restaurant in the hotel but it was Italian and, well, we were in Japan not Italy.
