Top Japan Hotel Reviews

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

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing hotel for the price. Best hotel i've ever stayed at with helpful staff and amazing showers"

Hotel Metropolitan Edmont Tokyo

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful, modern, clean and comfortable. The room is small but I didn't expect bigger for Tokyo. Even so, the closet space and shelves provide enough space for travelers. The bed is super comfortable. I looked forward to sleeping and a good night's rest. Elevators are fast and efficient which is really appreciated for a hotel of this size. The staff is friendly and welcoming. We took advantage of the convenience store and bakery in/attached to the hotel to grab quick bites. Location is close to transportation and walkable to a slew of restaurants in safe and quiet neighborhood."
