Great to have affordable laundry but it gets busy sometimes at night.
Gym would have been nice if they had weights (only treatdmill and punching station in premises). There is otherwise an Anytime fitness closeby around 500m if you are a member. Location of the hotel is nice as it is not crazy busy.

My experience at this hotel went incredibly well. The location itself is highly convenient, and the attention to detail throughout the property was excellent, with the rooms being absolutely spotlessly clean.
The room itself was very well-designed, featuring a continuous airflow system that kept the space feeling fresh. All the essentials were thoughtfully provided, but my absolute favourite part had to be the sleeping kimono 👘 . After experiencing how incredibly comfortable it was, I am completely hooked and am actually planning to buy one for myself!

The room also featured a Japanese toilet, which I can only describe as a total symphony of comfort.

As a sensitive sleeper, I would note that while the hotel claims the rooms are soundproof, I could still hear a bit of background noise. 🔉

That being said, having a laundry room available on-site was a fantastic and very convenient amenity to have.
What truly sets this place apart, however, are the staff members, who were exceptionally friendly and helpful throughout my stay.

Overall, I highly recommend this hotel.

This Hotel is a little quirky (Cartoon wallpapers in Lift foyers and rooms) but is great - even for the business traveller.

While the rooms were on the small side (pretty typical for Tokyo) they were well appointed. The workspace on level 1 is great for working away from the office or simply doing some emails and the cafe on the ground floor provides some good food and coffee options.

Best of all, the hotel is located within a 5 min walk of Kyobashi Railway station (providing ready access to sightseeing activities across Tokyo) and there were plenty of good restaurants nearby.

A great option for a stay in Tokyo.

Really good location from food to shopping to public transit - you're a 10 minute walk from a bus station with airport bus access, but it was also very easy to get to the hotel from the subway/NRT train. Overall aesthetic & design very fun. The ramen noodle restaurant steps away from the hotel is great too. Perfect spot for solo travelers.

Clean room with ample space. We stayed in a double room which was nice.
Cleanliness was exception. We also had enough space for 2x medium sized luggage.
It has a very clean, spacious communal area with free snacks and drinks during certain times. It is in a very convenient location as well. It was not our first visit to Tokyo and our main aim was to do a bit of shopping and eating. I don't think we travelled out of 1km from our hotel - everything we need was nearby!

Breakfast spread was okay and standard, which was sufficient. No \"wow\" factor in comparison to other boutique/ smaller hotels I've been in Japan. Also breakfast spread was on the ground floor and the dining area was on the first floor - so you will need to either take the elevator or go up a flight of stairs. I would personally give it a miss and have breakfast outside of the hotel.

Check in was easy . Room size was as expected as the description listed. Reasonably good use of the negative space for the room. Cleanliness could have been better when I checked in. Otherwise was good throughout the remainder of the stay. First time staying at Lyf hotels. Reminiscent of student life vibe .. a tad.

Mostly young staff who were alright. Extremely casual approach with room for improvement for interpersonal skills.

Location was good if it was not raining or outside temperature was below 28deg C . Close to several stations and 10 mins to the larger stations / JR lines. It’s Tokyo, so food and other creature comforts were very accessible and readily available.

Did not like that the lift automatically stops at level 2 every time.

Overall it’s was good stay. No fuss, no flair. Like a 7-7.5 overall experience .

The hotel had a kitchenette which was very handy. Some days I bought food back. So I could microwave food and have proper serving plates.

The hotel is very close to Kyobashi subway exit.
It is also 7 mins to Tokyo station which is very convenient.

Not far from the Ginza shopping district, only 20 minutes.

Stayed at this hotel for the entirety of my stay in Tokyo and I left completely satisfied. Originally, I had this place booked for only 2 nights, since I only wanted to stay in Ginza for easy access to Tokyo Disneyland, and then move to another neighborhood. But after realizing how accessible, quiet & overall amazing this hotel was, I ended up just extending my stay. Staff were extremely helpful and courteous. Rooms were clean and spacious for Japanese standards. Elevators were quick and amenities in the lobby were great (water and kitchen access, laundry and vending machine) At the end, they also helped me get my luggage back to the airport so I didn’t have to lug them all myself. After the amount of footsteps I made, trust me - this feature is everything. Lastly, location location location! Not only are there several amazing restaurants in the area (including the entirety of Tokyo Station), the entrance to the subway (Ginza Line) was around the corner, which makes a HUGE difference, especially at the end of the day when you have bags on bags with you. The Asakusa Line was a couple of blocks away as well. This made this hotel very accessible to pretty much every other neighborhood in Tokyo, which made exploring so much easier. One thing to note, I was a solo traveler, and in my opinion, this hotel was perfect for someone like me. My room came with a desk I was able to eat at. I did notice a lot of groups eating in the communal area in the lobby as well. Overall, great stay!

Good amenities: coin laundry, communal kitchen, gym, and water refill station.
Friendly and helpful staff and plenty of nearby restaurants/konbinis. Affordable airport baggage delivery (book 2 days ahead).

Good:
* Location (near the center and central train station),
* clean rooms,
* friendly hotel staff,
* ergonomics of stuff in the room. All conveniently located in this tiny space.
* Great variety of teas in the breakfast.
* There is common-use kitchen with fresh water available 24/7.

Not so good:
* Ventilation is constantly blowing cold air to your head while sleeping, not matter if the heater is on or off. It is not a broken vent, it is just bad design.
* Breakfast was \"continental\". It means VERY basic. We did not expect it bad on many good reviews. We literally needed to find a place to eat right after this breakfast. Food and even water were periodically ended, and you needed to wait until it was back. Eggs, for example, were never back. One time, there was only one serving person, and he did not speak English and there was no description of the food.
