Twin room premium - The beds were so hard, it was like lying on a wooden block. Asked for a mattress topper but made no difference. So uncomfortable. Toilet room looked dirty and stained on the walls. I commented to staff who said it was in need of painting. The toilet and bathroom were at separate ends of the room so you had to walk from toilet to wash your hands in bathroom. It was a reasonable price but we woul,d not return. Rather pay more for comfort.

Only a few minutes walking distance to the Tokyo Metro at Higashi-Ginza. Staff were warm and welcoming. Most amenities are available for self-service at the lobby. Self-service laundry available for a nominal fee, and the machines remain locked for a period after finishing so that you don't have to feel rushed. Did not try the public bath, but rooms were clean and comfortable. You have the option for room service; but, if you decline, they will still give you a new set of towels every day. Wifi worked with no issues, and air conditioning was excellent (<70 degrees Celsius) during summer season. Hair dryer and hangers included.

Only area for potential improvement is having better ventilation in the shower, as it would take a long time to dry out and I didn't see an option outside the shower for turning on a drying fan.

We had a wonderful stay at the square hotel GINZA! The location is perfect. Central to everything we needed in Tokyo and just a short walk to Tokyo Station, which made getting around super easy. The rooms are cosy but exceptionally clean, and the entire hotel is spotless and well maintained. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. For the price, this hotel is amazing value for money. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Tokyo! Arigatōgozaimasu!

Very good location - hip and chicer than Shibuyer and shinjuku. On the East side of Tokyo which is easier to get to sites. Drawbacks - standard room is tiny - one twin against wall which is against other bed. Very hard beds and odd design choices like no light at bathroom mirror and no closet or drawer space. It’s a puzzle if there are two staying there. Pluses- nice condition, location, and service. Fresh breakfast is very nice and lobby has a good vibe.

The hotel is a short walk away to Higashi-Ginza, Ginza, Yurakucho Station which makes it very convenient to get around. It's easy to get to Narita or Haneda Airport too via Exit 3 (elevator) of Higashi-Ginza Station next to the Kabuki Theatre. Food options are plenty and the main shopping area is just 2-3 roads walk away and takes less than 10 mins walk.

The room was clean and comfortable throughout our stay and the staff were very friendly! We really enjoyed the winter specials (apple pie & apple tea latte) from the cafe at the lobby as well.

Its a great value hotel. Very efficient, ver ergonomic , meaning: the size of the shower, bath, the room and bed, even the window is maximized for user friendliness, but it is on a small efficient scale. It is by no means a Four Seasons, nor a typical \"bijinesu-man hoteru\". It is efficiency sized, but actually more enjoyable than a Japanese Businessman hotel. Its smaller, comparably priced and fun! They really worked on the look and feel of the place. You feel like you're in a cool Kimpton or a budget Ian Shrager property (which doesnt exist).
The only set back if you're staying for more thana day or two, is that the breakfast is the same, EVERYDAY! Not the endof the world as there are a ton of eating options in the area. Otherwise, the Service is wonderful! Well trained, all so helpful and thorough. VERY good value!

We enjoyed our two night stay at the square hotel! Personally, felt it was slightly overpriced and definitely the smallest room we have stayed at in Japan. The beds are rock hard, like the hardest mattress you can imagine lol which my boyfriend didn’t completely mind but I can’t sleep well on super hard beds so I found them very uncomfortable. Location is good! Close to Tsukiji market.

The deluxe twin room we had had some seating on the side which we were able to put 2 open luggages on, so that was a nice surprise. The room is still tiny for American standards but everything was well placed so there was space to sit around. New towels hung on the door on days we forwent cleaning. Check in and check out was self serviced and they helped you if you needed it. Very new and modern and clean. We would definitely stay again. There’s a restaurant that serves chicken rice bowls 2 doors down that opens early and closes late, so that was a nice additional option other than the 2 convenience stores and McDonald’s nearby.

We had a coffee in the bar which again was great service.
The room would be a great size for a solo traveler, but for 2 nights it was a tight squeeze for 2 adults with luggage which is why the lower rating. Also, the aircon controller was positioned directly opposite the bed so we kept waking up cause of the green light on it and had to cover it with a shirt as we could not locate a way to turn off the light but keep the air con on.

The hotel room is filthy, and my daughters spotted a stain on the bed! The personnel are unfriendly, and one of the front desk workers always has a long face and is impatient when we ask for information. Also, when we checked out that day and asked if we could leave our luggage for an hour for breakfast before travelling to the airport, the hostile male staff had an attitude that he didn't like it! I understand that many hotels provide essential services. Also, the rooms smell odd and are not clean or fresh; most importantly, our rooms are so dark that I felt I was trapped and no escape ! I almost wanted to leave the next day, but I had purchased the rooms, and there was no refund, so I had no choice but to stay there! So far, I've stayed in many different hotels in Japan, and this is by far the worst. I think calling them a hotel is misleading; they should be classified as a guest hotel! Anyways, I will not recommend this hotel to anyone 😔

The location was great and area walkable. The staff of the hotel did not speak english and were a bit rude. They did not let you drink or eat anything on the common areas (e.g lobby) that was not bought from the hotel. I believe this was our right as we are paying the hotel and they should have a common area where we can sit down and eat or chat without being kicked out. The room did not have a table or chairs so where are we suppose to eat snacks or anything ? Staff did not want to help or took the time to explain why. The gym only had 3 machines for cardio? but did not have any weights or mats. Breakfast was okay - same food every day. Not many options. Beds were comfortable but they should provide pillows of different styles. Overall okay but extremely expensive for what it is.
