Hotels in Shinbashi, Tokyo

The hotel is quite a good location and very close to the train station. The room is very small but it’s enough for one person. I did kind of struggle to open my luggage. It’s very quiet and I slept well. I only had one issue and for this reason I wouldn’t consider booking with this hotel again. When I arrived to check in it was around 8am. The staff at the desk were very kind. I didn’t want to check in early but I wanted to drop my bags off. At this point, the hotel manager (a older lady with glasses came) and said in a sharp tone that check in is at 3pm. I knew this and this was okay. I felt her tone was quite rude and accusatory. It’s my second visit to Japan and up until now I’ve had no issue here and everyone has been very friendly. I was surprised that someone working in the hotel industry doesn’t know how to speak in an appropriate tone while dealing with customers. I did spend money to stay here and do expect a certain level of service. The fact that you can speak English does not automatically equal good customer service. I suggest that you watch the tone you speak in. In addition to this, I didn’t get a baggage tag so I waited and the other staff member called the lady back. She said it was okay and after I left I could hear them giggling at the counter. It wasn’t a major issue as I know the majority of Japanese people are very friendly and I’ve had a great time in this country. I’m moving on to Kyoto next and I was considering to book this hotel chain there but the experience has put me off.

I think it is a convenient place to go to Toranomon and Shinbashi in a place about ５ minutes walk from Shinbashi Station. The staff were kind and the hotel was clean. The room was on a relatively high floor, so the scenery was good and the air purifier was always available and easy to use. It was a room with a drum washing machine, so I think it is suitable for long-term stays. Breakfast is an Italian restaurant with an attached, but the volume and variety were a little inferior to the breakfast buffet at a local hotel. It was a continuous night, but it was a little disappointing that there was no bed makeup because of the sustainable orientation in recent years. It's a convenient place to go to Toranomon and Shimbashi, about a 5-10minute walk from Shimbashi Station. The staff were friendly and the hotel was clean.The room was on a high floor, so the view was good, and the air cleaner was useful.It was a room with a drum-type washing machine, so I think it's suitable for long-term stays. Breakfast was an Italian restaurant next door, but the volume and variety were a little inferior to the breakfast buffet at other local area hotels. I stayed for several nights, but it was a little unsatisfied that there was no bed making due to the recent trend toward sustainability.

In recent years, I have often stayed at a hotel with hot springs or large baths. I was thinking of staying once because Candeo Hotels was featured in TV Tokyo's ”Dawn of Gaia”. I made a reservation with a twin plan with breakfast that allows you to use the national travel support ”I'm home Tokyo Plus”. It was about 5 minutes walk from the Karasumori exit of Shinbashi Station in the downtown area. There was ”My Italian” on the 1st floor, and the entrance was not facing the street and on the side. When I went up to the 11th floor by elevator, there was a front desk. It seems that you have given priority to non-smoking, or you have a guest room on the lower floors away from the 12th floor of 11･ with a smoking area. I felt that the rooms were neither large nor small. I often use PCs during my stay, so I felt grateful if I had a desk. It seems to be open on January 11, 2018, but I couldn't find a USB power supply plug. Perhaps because the bathhouse on the 12th floor was used early in the morning, only a few people could use the sauna (about 65 ℃ degrees in the thermometer) slowly. Breakfast was rich in variety and I ate ”soup stock curry” for the first time. ”Handmade tofu” was delicious. Breakfast while looking at the downtown building was extraordinary.

Very pleasant hotel and a terrific location which is 2 min away from the Shimbashi station. There is a family mart about 20s walk and we love that after we exit Shimbashi, go to family mart buy drinks and head to the hotel within 5 min! Hotel lobby at level 2 is constantly warm. Hotel room is small and we need to be creative in the placement of our luggage on the sofa and the table yet leaving room for the 2 human to move around easily. The toilet door open outward which is a bummer because it takes up space. The bathroom is decent size where both of us can stand inside to do hair or makeup. Overall, this has been a good experience for the price. We stayed for 3 nights and for the price, definitely value for money.

When I made a reservation from Rakuten travel, I asked for a room far from the elevator and received an mail about the request from the hotel in about an hour. I have stayed in many hotels in various places so far, but it was the first time I received an email from the hotel side, so I expected that it would be a hotel that would respond to the details before staying. (^^) despite reservations from OTA (Rakuten Travel) rather than reservations from the official site! In fact, I prepared a room as requested. Access is close to minarimon station but is located in one from the street It is a little difficult to understand because it is a little difficult. Walk to the first Keihin area and turn left between the building (there is a signboard) with wework and the building of Kataoka bussan. The rooms are narrow, but the bed is large. The desk has an outlet, one USB ･ LAN port, one outlet on the bedboard, two USB ports and each lighting switch. TV is 32 inches made of Panasonic. You can also mirror. The view from the window is building, condominium, etc. The portable charger is lent at the front desk. Because of the influence of the corona, 4 bread is handed over at the front desk as a light breakfast service. Why is the sound different when the refrigerator switch is put in for a while I did. The air conditioning is individual and effective. It was cold, so if you heat it, the setting temperature is 23 ℃ but it becomes sweaty (-_-;) The room is full of disposable slippers and corona measures at check-in, the ID card confirmation, and the room. It's a little unfortunate that the dripping coffee in the room is not matched with the mug cup.

ＪＲ It is between Shinbashi and ＪＲ Hamamatsu Cho. It is often accessible from Shinbashi, but I think it takes the same time either. Perhaps the nearest is the goseimon and the daimon. The price is overwhelmingly cheap and the amenities in the room are not problematic, but there are some years, so the bathroom curtain is raw dry? It is a pity that it smelled like a smell. I think there is no problem for others who are not stuck near the station.

2 minutes walk from Shinbashi Station, 1 floor is a very convenient location called convenience store. Despite this, the price of 5000 yen for a single night stay. (I don't use the go to campaign) How about comfort? The size is about the same as the average business hotel in Tokyo. The cleaning was well done and there were minimal amenities. The interior is not known whether it is a new building or a renovation, but it is new, so it is comfortable to use water around and air cleaners are installed. Bedding was also comfortable. As a new corona virus countermeasure, there is a virus guard at the front desk, and the payment is done by a dedicated machine, so there is no physical contact with the staff. It is a hotel that can be used cheaply and safely, so it is scheduled to be used next time.

So, we booked the twin room. We had some I dea of the size of the room we booked but when we got there and checked in, it was tinier than expected. There wasn’t even space to open one of our large suitcases so it makes me think whether this twin room is a suitable option for tourists from abroad who want to shop! It seems like the twin room is for locals who don’t require a large suitcase for holiday but maybe a backpack or small suitcase. So to overcome this issue we had to purchase another single room for the remaining few nights after we struggled to stay together in a twin room . The single room was bigger than the twin room. It was literally two beds pushed together! You could also open up two suitcases comfortably! Apart from the twin room size issue, the beds were comfortable and it was overall a very clean hotel. We used the laundromat twice and it was a good experience. Loved the lounge area on level 12 also. The aesthetic and vibes were good for this hotel. Also once we settled in, the nearest station which is Shimbashi was very close by about 8-10 minutes walk. They don’t have luggage scales but lent us normal scales where we managed to weigh our luggage but struggled a little bit.

Close to the station and restaurants are also convenient. The bed was large and hard. There was a bath on the upper floor, but it was good that it was empty because it was full if three people entered, but I thought it would be a little bit when it was crowded. The elevator hall or corridor is a blowout, and you can hear the doors on the other floors open and close and speak in the room. If you are concerned, you may want to think about it. Breakfast at the Chinese restaurant on the first floor is too long and is not recommended for those who are hurry. I think other shops are better because you can use food tickets in other shops.

First of all, I need to clarify that I am not Japanese not Asian, which may absolutely make my opinion biased. I enjoyed every bit of my holiday trip in Japan up until the point I stayed in this hotel. What bothered me the most was how slow and inefficient everything was. Let me walk you through: 1) As you enter the hotel (male-only), you are asked to take off your shoes and use the sandals they provide (which is normal in Japan). You then need to put your shoes in a locker and give the staff your locker key so that they keep it and give you your room’s/luggage locker’s key. You have to do this every time you enter or go out, there’s no taking your room’s key outside of the hotel. This is an important annoyance and will always take several minutes. 2) If you have medium/big luggage you have to store in the first floor either in a very narrow locker or on top of it, with yet another locker/key the staff has to provide. You cannot take big luggage up to your room as there will be no space (room’s are in floors 4-6). 3) It is recommended (but not obligatory I think) that you wear some bath clothes the hotel provides (a brown, saggy outfit that is always too wide or too short where it’s not supposed to). Most of the passengers wear these as pijamas during their stay and change to regular clothes in the luggage storage room before they go out. 4) Baths and toilets are clean, modern, and provide every bath product you need (including styling products, toothbrushes and even mouthwash). There are many toilets and lavatories throughout the hotel but there are no private showers. The only existing showering area is that of the Onzen (basically about 20 open showers in a room where everyone gets cleaned before entering the hot bath). This is especially important for people who don’t feel comfortable being naked in public. The hot bath is ok. 5) Each room has a lot of capsules that are usually full, so do expect snoring and late-night comers. Still, it wasn’t very noisy to me. The capsules themselves are comfortable and fully equipped with cables and even a TV. The air gets kind of hot and thick at night but there is a common AC that compensates for that. 6) Breakfast consists of onigiris (rice triangles with various stuffings) that you make yourself with a vending machine. The ingredients and tastes are a lot stronger and maybe unpleasant for a westerner compared to the onigiris you can get in a market. So, in conclusion, if you are familiar with Japanese culture and food, this may be a decent stay especially considering the location and if you like onzens. To me it wasn’t much of a cultural shock but I disliked my stay. The staff barely speaks any english, they are slow, and the huge mess with keys and luggage and shoes is just not worth it. I will not come back again, even if it means paying double for a normal hotel.
