We stayed here a few nights while on our 2 weeks in Japan and of all the properties we stayed this one was by far the biggest room of all our hotel stays. We loved that the unit had a washer/dryer which was extremely handy to have and use. The hotel itself was centrally located and walkable to things to do and see. Would recommend this property.

The hotel has two buildings - the main building and the annex. The main building has smaller rooms with comfortable beds but in the annex we found the beds to be much harder and quiet uncomfortable. We noted that other guests experience the same problem and the hotel gave us blankets as an extra matress cover - they did not have spare bedding to help, which was surprising. The breakfast is very authentic and provides good Japanese fare but supplement by eggs, sausages coffee and pastries for those who want a western breakfast. There was no option of cereal or non-diary milk but you can buy this from a nearby 7-11 (50m away).

Tokyu Stay was a beautiful hotel and very conveniently located by the subway and bus stations. They offered free sake in the evenings, as well! The staff was very nice and helpful. The beads were so comfortable and the comforters felt like clouds. I absolutely loved my time here.
