The room is not suitable for Asian to stay. Room is very small, bed is very very old and as good as no mattress , aircon is very very old and noisy. This looks more like a backpack hostel . Don’t get scammed by the building outlook. It is only a 5 storey small hostel in the building.

At first glance, the hotel looked very impressive. The building is quite large, so I expected it to be a fairly big hotel. Compared to other business hotels I've stayed at in Japan, the room also seemed a little more spacious, and the view from the window looked nice, which is why I chose this hotel.

We booked a room with one double bed and one twin bed.

When you arrive, you have to take the elevator to the lobby on the 20th floor. Every time you enter or leave the hotel, you have to go through the 20th floor first. What surprised me was how tiny the lobby was. The building is huge, but the lobby felt about the size of a convenience store.

The amenities were also a bit disappointing. Many Japanese hotels provide extras like face masks, skincare products, or bath salts, but here there were only basic items such as razors, ironing facilities, and bathrobes.

The room itself was slightly larger than a typical business hotel, but the biggest issue was the humidity. Since we visited during the summer, the entire room felt damp, especially the bedding. The air conditioning only runs when the room is occupied, so it seems the room stays warm and humid most of the time. Sleeping in damp bedding wasn't very pleasant, and I couldn't help but worry about mold, although I didn't check because I honestly didn't want to know. We kept the air conditioner running as much as possible to dry out the room.

The view, however, was lovely. We could see Ueno Station, and on our first day we wer

This is actually a nice decent place to stay and I also has a good view of the Tokyo sky tree and also Shabuya on the higher floors. There is a 7-Eleven right by the lobby entrance and it’s not too far from the train station in Ueno, so it’s easy to get to places around the city. Like Shibuya, Akihabara or Shinjuku etc, the staff was very helpful and are willing to help you.

Laundry-1 machine was unusable and the other 2 were constantly busy. Just use the launderette down the road-faster and cheaper. Hotel is just floors 20-24, and the stairs are off limits. Takes forever to get an elevator, and then when you do get one it stops every time on the 20th floor-so clumsy and slow! We had two beds in the room and one was just “floating” with no headboard so the (very uncomfortable) pillow wouldn’t stay on and the bed slid everywhere. Bottom line-2nd Japan trip and this hotel was the worst I’ve stayed at in Japan. Do not recommend.

A hotel in a handy location near Ueno station. Walking distance to many tourist attractions, dining options, etc. Helpful staff. Check-in and check-out were quick and efficient. A decent 3-star hotel to stay for a night or two but perhaps no more. The room was reasonably clean but had a candy wrapper under the desk. The single mattress was bigger than the base so slipped off unless positioned carefully. Mattress was a bit old and on the firm side. The air conditioning unit got the job done but was quite noisy. This hotel is suited for people on a business trip staying for a short time but probably not for a couple or family.

Perfect location with an awesome view!

First and foremost, the location is PERFECT. Right across the tracks and road from Ameyoko, so it's easy to dip out and hit an izakaya, start exploring, and grab something from several conbinis right at your doorstep. The view from the window was stunning -- you can see all the way to Shinjuku, and to the mountains when it's clear out. The condition of my room was a little worn in some places, but overall comfotable enough. When I checked in, they told me they had to clean my room's air conditioner the next day, and would be there to do so sometime between 8am-5pm. Since I was planning on getting up early and going out anyway, I didn't mind, but had I wanted to sleep in due to jet lag or something, that would have been stressful and inconvenient. Not sure why they couldn't have done it between the 10am checkout and 4pm check in on the day I arrived, but whatever. Other than that, everything was great, efficient, and did I mention the location was perfect? Just a short walk to Ueno or Okachimachi stations. I would stay here again for the ease, the convenience, and the view!

This will turn on all the lights and the wifi, but what they don't tell you anywhere in the room is that there is a small button on the headboard labeled room 1 or 2 that will allow you to turn the main lights off while keeping power to outlets and WiFi.

This is a really good hotel. It’s in the most perfect Ueno location. All the restaurants and shopping are walking distance. The train station is also a short walk away from the hotel. The rooms are not elaborate or luxurious but the price is reasonable and worth it. They do charge for an extra pillow. The breakfast is also good. I do like that you can get a later check-out time but it will cost you. They also charge for storing luggage. So they do charge you for anything extra but that is true of most of the similar hotels in the area. I would stay here again. The location wins.

Good Hotel near Station at Ueno

Booked several rooms for our family holiday, most of the hotels in other platform and in Tokyo is only limit to 3 persons inside the room, most of it 6 years old is considered an adult already. Good thing hotels.com have consistency in number of occupancy, we were able to book one family which consist of 2 adults and 2 kids (7 and 3 years old). There is no daily housekeeping, but they provide fresh towels everyday, the hotel has to look into making sure that the hotel is clean, the above the ref is dusty, i was able to discover it when i dropped something and need to move the minibar, the walls of the lobby needs dusting also. On the ground floor there is a 7-11 which is very convenient, i will recommend this hotel to stay if visiting Tokyo, nearest subway is Ueno-okachimach Station and Ueno station (Ginza Line or Hibiya Line)

Big room. Modernized bathroom. Slow wifi.

This hotel has bigger single rooms in the area for similar budget. Modernized bathroom. About 190 sq ft. Big enough to walk around with suitcase opened on the floor. It has a big window to have abundant sunlight. Long rectangular shape desk. Only down side is the wifi. It's slow and unstable. During my stay I got 6 mbps on average. On a good day (guess it was when other guests checked out?) I got 48 mbps for few hours in the morning.
