Top Natural History Museum and Institute Hotel Reviews

Sheraton Grande Tokyo Bay Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel was great with many restaurant options and shuttles to train stations and close to Disneyland. Hospitality and service was wonderful, all staff were polite and helpful. Only downside was the outside garden pool, where you had to pay and only reserve for 2 hours even though there was hardly anyone there. It would have been nice to access that more and relax or read by the pool. Buffet was tasty and had many options. The rooms were clean and tidy. Maybe a bit outdated with the colours but it was clean and tidy."

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

10/10 Excellent

"Easy to find from Terminal 3 and very nice hotel."

Oriental Hotel Tokyo Bay

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous place to stay. So convenient to many shops and the local train station. Breakfast was really great and a good selection of foods for everyone. Really loved the relaxation area where you can sit and chill in the afternoon and evening with family and have complimentary beer, wine, other assorted drinks and lollies, especially for kids. The free Disney shuttle is so convenient and runs often in both directions. We would definitely recommend the Oriental Hotel."
