Nice and new

Nice and new hotel. Onsen is bigger than expected with sauna. Rome is a bit small. We picked connected room. Bed can fit for four but not much space then.

Nice hotel just off the main strip. Some rooms have windows that faces the inside of the building. 10 mins from the airport Express train

Good value for the price but the long waits for the elevators was terrible.

Bad hotel for the price I paid

Worst hotel I had in Japan. Very expensive for a small room with no view. Busy elevators, had to wait sometimes 10 minutes to use it... They charge extra money (about 3500 Yens daily) to access the pool that was supposed to be included… You have to pay to use the gym too. However, the public bath and location were good.

2 night stay

Walking distance to all the markets you will want to visit and more food options then you can imagine in surounding neighborhood! A breathtaking roof view! 7eleven on 4th floor with laundromat and Guest only public baths. Proximity to subway to connect to rest of Japan and or to get to the landmarks. Possibility of adjoining rooms if you want to travel with family... friends... kids. Will be returning and referring....
Philippe, 2-night trip

Small rooms

Nice location, convenient to train and metro, great ac. Room was really small. Luggage had to go under bed. Check in was automated. No personal contact. Elevator lines super long at night. Extra charges for pool, hot tub, and gym. For four of us, we had to have connecting rooms. Wouldn’t be good with small children.

Guest service with limited English proficiency. Downstairs restaurant service was terrible. Moths in room (we spotted 2 inside oir room and some more in hallways).

Long lines waiting for elevator, laundromat

I will give it 3.5 stars. The location is good. The hotel staff is polite but not helpful. We have a family of 4, reserved 2 rooms and requested the rooms on the same floor. When the request was not met, they did very little to try to address it. The issue worsen with their elevator logic. There are times took 10-mins before you can get on an elevator, making time consuming when you tried to go between floors. The stairs seem to be reserved for emergency only, so I cannot even use the stairs to go one level down to grab some ice. The facilities they offer, such as public bath and laundry are quite crowded, making me believe the capacity of the services do not meet the scale of the hotel.

Disappointing

Disappointed in our stay. Firstly booked this hotel because of the swimming pool only to find out on arrival that you need to pay 2000yen per adult to use it for only an hour! This is not shown when booking via hotels.com otherwise I wouldn’t have booked here. The bathroom stunk of urine. The hotel is too big to manage, all the rubbish is piled up in the corridors for hours before its removal, not a nice to walk past. It is in a good location, has a 7 eleven which was really convenient, transport options right outside the hotel. Also there is no information on tours etc available at the hotel. Not sure I would stay again. The bed to my surprise was fairly comfortable. The room is really small, you couldn’t open a big suitcase.
Ana, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location. Tiny rooms. Poor English stuff.

I traveled with my son and spent 5 nights there. Experience was in general ok. Good things: Higher floor was definitely bad experience cause the waiting time for elevator was awful. There was no view when we stayed on 38th floor because window is not allowed to be open unless emergency. Room is tiny and bathroom feels like the same as cruise. You have to pay per hour if you want to use the pool on the roof floor. Good stuff: Public bath was a great experience. Location was great. Lower floor was great that we could see outside through the window. Top floor great view both day and night.

Mis-use of the term Resort

I would hardly call this a "resort" and their motto of "efficient luxury" made all of us laugh. Was far from efficient and generally a chaotic scene in that lobby. Everything was meant to be kiosk or app driven, but somehow required an army of physical people to execute the task - defeating the point of the digital aspect. And signage/communication was piecemeal & all over the place... for example, at check-in you use a kiosk, however its a wall labeled "pay cash difference" - nothing saying "check in". Person after person had to stand in line and ask where check in was. The part that was the most ridiculous was using the pool-so be warned and/or informed...Yes, they state the hours + floor of the pool on the in-room tv info. What do they leave out? You must go to the top floor via the slow and overcrowded elevators. At the top, you will be greeted by someone who will tell you to get a wristband at the desk. Okay, back down 40 floors. You go to the front desk and are told you have to sign up for your 1-hour block of swimming. It also costs money for this hour (for 3 people this was about $40 US Dollars - which was highway robbery). They use a color wristband system that is designated for each specific hour HOWEVER you cannot pre-reserve, they will only allow sign-up 15 min before each block, despite the color code system. Be the first in line or you lose pool time as sign-up is slow.You have to bring your own towels, but they give you a glass bottle HADA soda at the top.

普通かな…

携帯の充電器を忘れてきてしまって、バッテリーがないから充電器を借りたいと思ってフロントでお願いしたら、玄関脇にある充電システムで対応しているので充電器の貸出はこちらではありません！と断られた。 その充電システムを使用するには携帯から登録しないといけなくて、結局何も出来ず。 不親切な対応だなぁと思った。 ホテル自体は新しくてキレイだけど、ちょっと残念。 それと館内の廊下やスペースがやたらと暑い。 節電からだろうけど、もう少し気持ち良く過ごせる温度設定にした方がいい気がする。
