About

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • A garden that steals the show — Guests repeatedly call the Japanese garden a highlight — some call it a work of art, others simply say it's a dream. It's a rare green space in central Tokyo.
  • Location next to the palace and metro — The hotel sits next to the Imperial Palace (a 25-minute walk) and directly beside a metro station, making it easy to reach the rest of Tokyo. Several reviews highlight the convenience.
  • Strong service and staff — Rating categories for service and staff both sit at 9.2, and reviews mention helpful staff finding transport and providing experienced assistance.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Some rooms show their age — While guests appreciate the amenities, a few note that the twin/double room feels 'vintage' or 'a little outdated' — though they still praise the comfort and bathroom.
  • Price is on the higher side — At £280 per night and a Value rating of 8.8 (below the hotel's overall 8.6, but above average for the area's 8.9), it's a premium stay. Some guests note good value, but for the class, you pay for the location and garden.
  • Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 23:59, which may be tight for late arrivals. Plan your travel accordingly.
