Hotels near Nakai Art Institute, Tokyo

I booked a single room and it was very clean and convenient having the subway station nearby. The staff were helpful and polite, breakfast was fair continental fare and the hotel was close to the Tokyo Dome where I had enjoyed shopping at the mall. It was close to Ueno and easy for me to get about Tokyo. My stay at this hotel made up for the earlier eventful days in Japan following non-operating train lines from Typhoon Hagibis which changed some of my travel plans. Thank you for the great service! 😊❤️

This was a decent stay. The only complaints are that the lobby toilet was a bit unclean and there was always a long wait for the elevator. Also the room carpet was covered in lint balla but otherwise it was a clean room. The bed was comfortable. The view from the room was good. Location is great. The selection at the breakfast buffet was varied and it was tasty.

This is my first time staying in a Japanese hotel. I found the hygiene and cleanliness to be impeccable. I used wet wipes to wipe the parts that my hands might touch, such as the table handle, switch, and toilet seat. There was no dust or stain at all. All facilities were arranged just right. I feel that the Japanese people are too serious and meticulous in doing things, and they are worthy of our study!

Excellent location for Univ of Tokyo, walking distance to 3 subway stations/5 train lines plus busses, shopping and dining. Quiet location off Hongo-dori. Good restaurant, altho buffet breakfast (not included in room fee) somehow costs more than lunch. Our unrenovated queen room (#301) had adequate space but only 3 single electrical outlets, absolutely tiny fridge, and was quite shabby, with soiled upholstery, and not well cleaned, including toilet. Stairway carpeting and walls dirty. 2nd floor free washing/drying machines with unhelpful ”translation” of controls. Reasonable rate for what you get but would stay here again only for proximity to Todai.

We stayed in this hotel in October 2019 for our wedding trip. All in all, the rooms are quite spacious: there are two quite large beds (but you want to sleep comfortable in two in one bed) while the bathroom offers everything necessary between bathroom shampoo, shampoo, snack, hairdryer etc. In the room there is also a tea boiler and several infusions. In the hotel hall there is also a (American) coffee machine available to customers and, in the lower floors, a washing machine and an onsen (always free for customers). Breakfast is both Japanese and Western style, so everyone is satisfied. The staff is really very friendly and cleaning in all environments is inconvenient. The location is a very quiet point, but I think it is the position: a few minutes walk from the metro and, even though it is almost near the Tokyo Dome, the area is very quiet. I mean, I have been very prompted.

I used Ueno Station Hostel Original 1 near Ueno Station while traveling to Tokyo, Japan last year. You can experience a Japanese hotel famous for its capsule hotel. There is a station right in front of it, so I recommend it to tourists who have to use public transportation. You can get off the subway late at night and enter the hostel safely. The inside of the hostel is really clean. You can see several employees cleaning up every morning. Discard them all and replace them with new pillows and blankets. I used the bathroom together but it was good to clean it up. I went on a trip in winter and walked around outside all day, so it was cold, but warm water came out of the bathroom, so it was good. There was a convenience store just downstairs, so when I was hungry at night, I could look back on my day of traveling by buying and eating food from the convenience store.

Is very convenient to local subway (2min walk) or JR train (10-15min walk). Staying there over 11 nites, front desk staffs & room cleaners are all very friendly & helpful. Walking distance to various shopping areas, animates streets, park & zoo. Many convenient stores around, 24hrs eatery. The only thing isn’t good is rooms too small, if couple or single is ok but friends in dual better get 2 single-beds room which is bigger (that’s what I upgraded for my 2 sons 3000¥ per nite). If coffee lovers, you have to prepare yourself coffee as they have complimentary green tea only.

We stayed 5 nights in Standard Double room (Main building) on third floor. The hotel is very convenient, 3 mins walk to Ueno station, plenty of restaurant, cafes, shopping, convenient stores. Our room double bed on the side, with dressing table and 3 seated sofa, which give us plenty of room to sit and open the luggage. Bathroom with nice bathtub. We don't have heated toilet as it was not working, we try to call the front desk, leave a note on the bathroom door to the housekeeping, didn't get fixed during our 5 nights. Check in and front desk is located on 2nd floor, the public onsen, vending machines and smoking area is also on the same floor, not much privacy if you're wearing hotel robe and slipper for onsen or if you just want to have a smoke. If you are a light sleeper, please request the room on higher floor, it's very noisy on the street even after midnight and early morning because of the restaurants and bars, also we can hear the 2nd floor public onsen and water noise from our room in the middle of the night during our stay. Our booking included breakfast and due to covid 19, they don't served buffet, mainly served with japanese style and we can choose from rice or bread, they didn't change the menu and we have the same food every day, breakfast time is from 7am to 9am, my advise is there are plenty of cafes, not worth to pay top price for breakfast. Also the hotel have main building and annex building, and they are completely different place where annex building is around the corner on the side street. Centurion had several hotel in Ueno, make sure you have the correct address details. There is only one small lift (2 ppl with 2 luggage will fill the lift) for the whole hotel, we stayed during non peak season and quite often we were waiting some time for the lift, there was a note in the reception to encourage guests to use the stairs instead.

Anyway, the location is good. It is good to be able to start anywhere in Tokyo and close to the station. Also, because it is an apartment type, there are few people who are buzzing in the corridor, and there are many convenience stores and super fast food restaurants around, so it is not troublesome for short or long term. The room is also well equipped, and it is the best to have a range first. It is important that there is a range early in the Vijiho. The cleaning is not good, and the desk and floor are a bit dirty. The humidifier of the air cleaner is not available in black mold. And the bath towel was a little moldy. Because the invisible part was a bit cluttered, the location is good and the facilities are good I think it would be better if I cleaned the cleaning firmly to keep the clean state.

There are a shallow business hotel and the minimum necessary equipment. The microwave oven is good, but it is contracted to be troubled by securing the work space because it is taken the space of the desk. Check-in is also performed on a dedicated machine, so there will be no exchange with the front desk except when there is a business. Comfortable hotel for directions that do not require extra service. It is better to estimate about ５ Kanda kashiiwamoto Cho walk.
