Hotel Ryumeikan Tokyo
Check out the reviews from Japanese people!
3 minutes walk from Tokyo Station
Ryumeikan Tokyo is a long-established hotel that was founded over 120 years ago, and has a very stylish Japanese modern interior. Although it has excellent transport access, just a 3-minute walk from Tokyo Station, it is not well known even among Japanese people, so it is a hidden gem. There are many foreign guests, and the rooms are spacious, so I think it will be a popular hotel for foreigners who want to enjoy sightseeing in Japan. Breakfast is buffet style, but there is a wide selection of Japanese dishes on the menu, so I would definitely recommend having breakfast at the hotel at least once during your stay.

A hidden gem located close to Tokyo Station, known only to those in the know
Ryumeikan Hotel was founded as Ryokan (Japanese inn) during the Meiji period in Japan (over 120 years ago!), but the building has been renovated in a Western style, but with a somewhat Japanese atmosphere, making it very stylish. Even though it is a hotel, there are rooms with tatami flooring, so you can take off your shoes and relax. This hotel is particularly famous for its excellent breakfast, called the "Tokyo Buffet," which offers a wide variety of Japanese dishes using Tokyo's brand vegetables. You can enjoy a delicious and healthy breakfast, such as a breakfast menu created in collaboration with a bonito flakes specialty store in Nihonbashi.

A city hotel with a Japanese garden
How about the Grand Prince Hotel Takanawa, conveniently located just a 5-minute walk from Shinagawa Station, making it easy to get anywhere? This hotel has a wonderful Japanese garden! Rather than a boring business hotel, this hotel is sure to please foreigners, as you can enjoy a stroll through the Japanese garden and experience a luxurious atmosphere. We especially recommend staying here during the cherry blossom season in spring.

Grand Nikko Tokyo Daiba
Check out the reviews from Japanese people!
A top-notch hotel
This bayside hotel is about 20 minutes by bus from Haneda Airport and directly connected to Daiba Station on the Yurikamome Line. It is a perfect place to stay for important people such as business partners, as it will not be rude and they will be able to relax in peace. The room was luxurious, and the customer service was excellent, so I had no complaints about my stay.

The romantic night view of Odaiba
Because it's in Odaiba, the night view is beautiful. It's also fun during the day. The rooms are spacious and come with a wide range of amenities, which is great for women. It's also very convenient, with only one stop to the city center on the Yurikamome line. For a high-class hotel, it's good value for money.

Shibuya Excel Hotel Tokyu
Check out the reviews from Japanese people!
The hotel is directly connected to Shibuya Station and has a limousine bus to the airport.
If you are coming from overseas, it is recommended to stay at a hotel where you can use the limousine bus from the airport. This hotel is directly connected to Shibuya Station, so it is convenient for both sightseeing and business as it is easily accessible to anywhere. The beds are not as narrow as they are in hotels in Tokyo, and even my 180cm tall colleague was able to stay comfortably.

Keio Plaza Hotel Tokyo
Check out the reviews from Japanese people!
A hotel popular with foreigners
I have stayed at Keio Plaza Hotel on my own several times. It is a very prestigious hotel, but what surprised me was the number of foreign visitors to Japan. When I went to the breakfast area in the morning, most of the people around me were foreigners. For that reason, it seems that many of the staff are foreigners. I think it would be more comfortable to stay at a hotel that is used to dealing with inbound tourists than a hotel that is not used to dealing with them.

Shinagawa Prince Hotel is also recommended for foreigners
If you are a foreigner staying at the hotel, how about staying at Shinagawa Prince Hotel? It is close to Shinagawa Station, has a convenience store, and is very convenient. The staff are very friendly, and they are also helpful to foreigners. The view is also great, and it is a hotel I would like to stay at again.

Royal Park Hotel Tokyo Nihonbashi
Check out the reviews from Japanese people!
It's a convenient hotel for travelling
If you are coming from overseas, you will probably be coming via Narita Airport. If you are coming from Narita Airport, I recommend the Royal Park Hotel in Suitengu. The limousine bus stop is next to Hakozaki Air Terminal, so it is easy to get to the city center from Narita. The beds at this hotel are large and long enough to sleep comfortably.

Long bed
If you are a foreigner, you will probably arrive at Japan via Haneda or Narita airports. If so, I recommend the Royal Park Hotel, located next to Hakozaki Air Terminal. This hotel offers long beds that are comfortable even for tall foreigners.

Marunouchi Hotel, Tokyo
Check out the reviews from Japanese people!
Convenient hotel near Tokyo Station
Marunouchi hotels are almost always directly connected to Tokyo Station via an underground passage, so if you go underground you can check in without getting wet in the rain. If you stay at a hotel close to Tokyo Station, it's easy to get to Tohoku and Kansai using the JR lines, as well as Haneda and Narita airports, so it's recommended. The hotel beds are relatively large, and the bathrooms are spacious.

The Westin Tokyo
Check out the reviews from Japanese people!
This is a Westin brand hotel, which is well known overseas.
How about the Westin Tokyo, located near Ebisu Station on the Yamanote Line? This hotel is located in a relatively quiet area in the city center. The breakfast is buffet style and very delicious.

Hotel Trusty Tokyo Bayside
Check out the reviews from Japanese people!
A hotel with a chic atmosphere
It is close to the Tokyo Big Sight, making it very convenient for exhibitions. The hotel has a chic interior and is very relaxing. It is also convenient to get to the city center by using public transportation such as the Yurikamome and Rinkai lines. It is also relatively close to the shopping malls in Odaiba, so you can do sightseeing and shopping.
