Stayed here for 3 nights last month. Usually don't stay at hotels when I'm in Japan but nobody we knew lives around TDR.
The hotel is great. My gf booked the room through a Japanese agency and got a fantastic rate. The first room we got smelled like smoke, both of us being non-smokers this really bothered us. I called the front desk and they immediately apologized and offered a new UPGRADED room. I didn't ask for that, they offered it. Got the new room. It was bigger than my apartment back in Minnesota LOL! Great view of the bay I could stand around watching the water traffic all day.
We didn't really spend that much time in the room as it was Disney Disney Disney. Got the driver of the MIckey Mouse shuttle to take a pic of us in front of it, great pic. lol (the bus takes you to the shuttle train station for a short ride to the parks)
The breakfast buffet was really good. Mostly western style. We didn't dine at any of the other restaurants but according to some other guests I talked to there they were very good. I was on a mission to find Chiba's best tonkatsu myself, so evenings were spent in search of that!!! (and found it oh yeah mmmm tonkatsu!)
I found this hotel to be great. Even if we had stayed in the original room it was fairly large. Bigger than any I've ever seen in Japan. They are clean, neat and comfortable. Service is as you would expect anywhere in Japan, five star. If there is a problem the management will bend over backwards to make sure you're happy. Employees are very polite and professional. I would stay here again and recommend to anyone.
