"Got to the hotel the day of my arrival. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by staff. Replenishment of waters were given each day, which was appreciated. I will not complain about anything because there was nothing to complain about."

8/10 Good
"The convenience of being next to the train station that connects directly to the airport is key to my selection. Plus, it's on the main Yamanote Line and serves as a transfer station to many other great places to visit. The views are fantastic, there's a 7-11 and other useful shops in the hotel, as well as a food court and bowling alley! This is our family's choice of hotels whenever staying in Tokyo."

8/10 Good
"Had a lovely stay at the Tobu Hotel with my spouse. The staff were helpful, and accomidating in getting us set up in our room. They also helped us arrange a taxi for one of our evenings activities. The hotel is conviently located near Kinschencho Station which makes public transit a breeze. There is also a Don Quixote nearby ehich makes last minute souvenir shopping super convenient! The hotel also has a nice lobby providing a classy feel and ambience. Room wise, we ordered the double room and found it had more than enough space which was nice after our muxh smaller room in Kyoto. We did not request a tower view, but still found the view to be quite nice, with the city spread out around us (we were also able to still see the tower). Our only real complaint is that the tub was a bit slick to stand in while showering, which made footing precarious. The bathroom was also had a low ceiling which was bothersome for my 5'7 husband. There were also not a lot of outlets and outlet placement was a bit inconvenient for charging devices. Otherwise it was fantastic and we would definitely stay again."
