Hotel Niwa Tokyo

The hotel is located about a 5 min walk from the nearest train station. Google maps made us walk a steep hill up to the hotel from the station so do take note if you have luggage (there is a more long winded way which doesn’t need you to go up a steep hill). Location: about 20 mins from the city so I would say this is on the outskirts of the city, which we liked as it is quieter. We somehow could hear the trains in the morning though we didn’t hear them at night. Room: It is small (like all Tokyo hotels) but sufficient. The bed was very comfy, and the rooms and toilets were kept clean and nice. No signs of aging. The pyjamas given were super comfy and a lot of amenities were given as well. Water pressure was good. Amenities: The best part of this hotel is its facilities. I absolutely loved the 3rd floor inner garden where we could sit and hear water flowing. They serve free green tea too at stipulated time periods. Be sure to check it out! The gym is very basic though with only a few treadmills and no weights. Food: Quite a lot of food options which are about a 5 min walk away. Service: Really good service by front counter staff. They also helped us make a reservation at a restaurant :)

Location was very convenient. Front desk service was impeccable. Would recommend.
