Tokyu Stay Monzen-Nakacho Tokyo

All the staff at the reception were very helpful, friendly and gave us warm customer service. They go all out to meet our requests and to ensure that our stay was an enjoyable experience. The location is excellent with the Monzen-Nakacho subway station just a couple minutes walk away and 3 train stops to Tokyo station. Perfect for families with kids as there are few playgrounds and parks nearby. There’s a pharmacy and Family Mart just round the corner. Many good restaurants, cafes, Family Marts and a couple of supermarkets very nearby. Couldn’t ask for a better location. The rooms are bigger than most hotels in Tokyo and the rooms we were in had a washing machine which is so handy.

The location is just steps away from bars, restaurants, the local shrine and the Metro station. The room has a washer-dryer (yep, stick your clothes in and they come out washed and dried), and either a tatami mat bed or a “western” bed (we have stayed there twice). I love the place. This is not a swank upmarket hotel with lots of cafes and restaurants. I’ve stayed at those in Tokyo and they’re good but generic. (And I prefer if someone else pays for them). The TokyuStay is for a different clientele. It is a fantastic small hotel for tourists and business people with no on site dining but clean and good.

Our room had great amenities: shower, bathtub, desk, small dining area, kitchenette with fridge, sink and microwave, balcony with a view, and a laundry washer-dryer combo. Three twin mattresses pushed together was enough for our young family of four. Important to us was the proximity of this hotel to the subway, restaurants, shops and playgrounds since we were traveling with young children. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. We utilized and appreciated the complimentary items in the lobby, the coffee, and luggage hold service before check in and after check out.

I really like Monzen Nakacho area. There is an izakaya street, conbinis, truffle bakery and Mr Donut close to the metro station. By feet you can reach temples and jinjas in the area. Close ride to the Center of Tokyo. it’s a business hotel but it’s new and very clean. The bed was big enough. all amenities in hotel, personnel very helpful and friendly. Coffee downstairs was free of charge but I prefer the one from Family Markt.

Our room was exactly what we needed-- no-frills and spacious. After traveling for over a week, it was so nice to be able to do laundry and cook our own simple meal in the kitchenette. The free-to-use coffee machine by the vending machines was an unexpected bonus!
