Nihon Seinenkan Hotel

Excellent! The hotel is a straight walk out of exit 2a (stairs only, 2b has escalators) of Gaienmae station (Ginza Line). The reception is on the 9th floor (labeled LB in the elevator) and the rooms are from the 10 floor upwards. I didn't know there was a public bath but I couldn't use it during my stay anyway. It's small but serves it purpose! The rooms are very spacious for Japanese hotels and well organized. The toilet and bath were separate making the bathroom more spacious. I had an East facing room right over one of the stadium and it was excellent. I got to see the sunrise in the morning over the city with my cup of tea and even saw a bit of a college baseball game late in the morning. It seems the southwest(?) facing rooms could give you a view of Mt. Fuji! I got a shock passing by a room during cleaning! There are plenty of convenience stores on the way to the hotel and there seems to be a 7/11 in the narrow streets behind the hotel. If you like long walks, you could even take the main road down to Omotesando and further on to Shibuya station. Water was provided in the room but you have to get amenities from the lobby. The receptionists were very kind and welcoming. I would be happy to stay in the hotel again and even recommend it to others.

Polished hotel with far more space in the room than I expected. Everything was pleasant during my stay and I loved having the space to open my luggage and still have space to walk around. 500ml bottled water provided every day was also much appreciated. The separated bathroom and toilet were also pretty big and I really cannot praise more that the hotel provides tray organisers on the bathroom shelf. It made me feel at home that I didn't have to haphazardly place things on the counter. The hot tub/jacuzzi in the public bath was also a pleasant surprise, and I liked that this hotel provides keycards for the public bath instead of making people remember passcodes. As someone who starts the day late, I'm also appreciative of being able to have the room cleaned all the way up to 3pm. Staff were always courteous and helpful and made it feel like a 5-star experience staying here. I liked the location as well, it's not too far from Gaienmae Station and my favourite Doutor Coffee. I would definitely like to stay here again.

We chose this hotel because it was away from the touristy areas without being too far. The rooms are slightly more spacious than what is commonly found in Tokyo and it’s only a 8 min walk to the train station. Even with our medium-sized baggage, it didn’t pose any problems. There’s also a convenience store just below the hotel, but if you prefer more choices, you can find a family mart and a 7-11 next to the entrance to the metro. We seized upon its close proximity to the Yakult Swallows home stadium and got tickets to a game, which IMHO, was a blast despite the home team losing.

Clean, lovely staff who helped with transfer luggage, helping us book to get our nails done; good sized rooms - loved the bidet that opened when you entered the room and the speaker given for music. We could even see Mount Fuji from the hotel! Great location, amenities (loved the pyjamas). Theres a ATM and the convenience store downstairs. The metro is close by and it’s a good location to get to Shibuya etc. All in all wonderful stay and having stayed in 4 hotels whilst in Japan this was my favourite. Thank you!!

- Location: Quite calm and nice neighborhood. Location was especially great for exploring Harajuku and Shibuya areas on foot or with metro. Easy to get to central Tokyo as well with metro. The metro station is within approx. 10min walk. The olympic stadium and baseball stadium are right next to the hotel so if you are gonna watch a game, this is probably the best stay for that. You could see baseball players practicing on the pitch from the hotel lobby. - Staff: all the staff members were very polite and it was easy to communicate with them in english. For eg. booking the luggage forwarding service was easy with such helpful staff. - Room cleaning was good, adequate enough. - Water bottles were provided for the room - there's a small market downstairs, good for getting small snacks and drinks
