Top Japan Hotel Reviews

Narita Tobu Hotel Airport

10/10 Excellent

"1"

Hotel Villa Fontaine Grand Haneda Airport - Directly connected to Haneda Airport Terminal 3

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel with a magnificent rooftop onsen. Super convenient to Haneda Terminal 3. Restaurants and shopping adjacent to hotel with more a short walk away in the Terminal. I was a little disappointed in the breakfast buffet. Good, not great. A hotel at this price point should have a better selection."

Hotel Metropolitan Edmont Tokyo

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient hotel, location was excellent. We had a superior room which was spacious, immaculately clean. Excellent shower, Laundry facilities are very good too. All staff helpful, they do stick to the 3pm checkin strictly which can be frustrating after a long flight."

Shinjuku Prince Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great location! Within minutes of numerous restaurants and bars and a shopping center. Also, two minutes from Airport Limousine bus drop off/pick up point and from train station. Staff service throughout was excellent. Room is a bit small, standard for Japan, but clean and convenient. I will stay here again."
