In brief

What works, what to weigh

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No on-site parking — The hotel does not list parking among its amenities, so guests arriving by car will need to find public parking nearby or use public transport.
  • Check-in window ends at midnight — Check-in is from 15:00 to 23:59, so late-night arrivals after midnight won't be accommodated. This may be a constraint for red-eye flights.
  • Pets not allowed — If you're traveling with a pet, this hotel isn't an option. The policy is explicitly no pets on site.
  • Rooms can feel small for some guests — Tokyo hotel rooms are often compact, and some guest reviews hint at coziness. The single room, for instance, has one single bed and no listed in-room amenities beyond basics.
