Tokyu Stay Gotanda

Gut gelegenes Hotel, Zimmer klein, aber mit Kühlschrank, Mikrowelle, Wasserkocher *und* Waschmashine/Trockner sehr gut ausgestattet. Sogar kostenloses Waschpulver war an der Rezeptions erhältlich. Frühstück im Jonathan's im 2. Stock war inklusiv. War absolut passend für unseren wochenlangen Aufenthalt in der Stadt.

The hotel is walking distance to JR Gotanda which makes it a perfect base for exploring Toyko. JR gotanda is on the yamanote train line which loops arounds the major stations near all the tourist attractions. The room was clean and larger than typical Japanese hotel rooms. The in room washing machine was a bonus and came in handy during the trip. While the location is good for transport there isn't many dining options near the hotel. Thankfully, Shibuya is only a 10min train ride away!

Overall satisfactory but reckoned services could be better. While we understand that there's no daily housekeeping, there should at least have towels changing and rubbish clearing every alternate days. There's nothing! Reception staff are not very friendly either.

The hotel offers excellent service and they arranged for us to send one suitcase from Tokyo to Kyoto so that we only needed to carry one suitcase for traveling via train. The hotel room provides washing machine and dryer is good as we can wash our clothes. The staff are friendly and the location is good

The hotel is just minutes away from Gotanda station and is a great stop for travelling around Tokyo - The Yamanote Line takes to you all the major areas within Tokyo, however it is a busy station - especially at rush hour. The hotel is basic, but functional. The room is typical modern/business Japanese style (small) but works well. Everything you need is provided and the washer/drier is now an essential part of my travel itinerary. Staff are courteous, always well presented and very happy to help you with any enquiries. W-Fi was a bit hit and miss. Sometimes it was very slow or would not connect, but this is technically a business hotel so I can understand a high demand for this service. There’s no restaurant onsite, but there is a link to “Jonathan’s” via the 2nd floor for breakfast or other meals, or you can comb the local area for food and drinks. Lawson, Family Mart (several of) and 7-11 are within two minutes from the hotel. The area around Gotanda is a little “seedy” at night. There are many establishments offering more adult-themed entertainment and lots of people on the street trying to beckon you into their establishments. They are not pushy and don’t get in your way like those in Shinjuku seem to be, a simple “no” (or iie) and they will leave you alone. Overall, for being a great base allowing you to explore Tokyo, it’s a good choice.
