Hotel Resol - Akihabara
Tokyo
レビュー
The hotel location is very convenient close to Akihabara Main Street, lots of restaurants around, 20 min walk to Ameyoko Market. 1 mins walk to train station, this was a great base in Akihabara. The rooms are pretty compact but overall gave us what we needed for the few nights we were there. The reception staff we encountered for most of our stay all really had good English and were very helpful.
Overall, my stay was disappointing, especially considering the price. I paid around $145 CAD per night, which felt very expensive compared to other hotels I stayed at in Japan that cost around $105 CAD and even included breakfast. Here, breakfast was not included at all, which was honestly the biggest disappointment of the stay. The room itself was extremely small. I understand that hotel rooms in Japan are generally compact, but this one felt even smaller than most others I experienced during my trip. For the price, I expected a little more comfort and space. The location was decent since the hotel is located in the middle of Akihabara, Tokyo’s famous electric town. However, it still required about a five-minute walk to reach the nearest metro station. Food options around the hotel were also limited late at night, meaning I often had to walk farther or take the metro again to find something to eat. Service was very average. Nothing terrible, but nothing memorable or welcoming either. The staff’s English was limited, and overall the atmosphere did not make me want to return. The hotel offered free amenities like toothbrushes, shaving kits, face creams, bath salts, coffee, and ice, but everything felt very basic. One frustrating issue was that I found a bug in the room, and nobody really seemed to care or follow up about it. Also, the laundry service was surprisingly expensive: about $15 CAD for a maximum of only 2 kg of clothes. The bag allowed was extremely small, making it difficult to fit even a few days’ worth of clothing inside. Another important thing to mention: there is currently a massive construction project happening right next to the hotel. For at least the next few months, expect a lot of noise both during the day and at night. There was constant banging from the construction site, and at times it made it difficult to fall asleep and properly rest. In the end, the hotel felt overpriced for what it offered. Aside from the decent location, there was nothing that really stood out positively, and I personally would not stay there again.
Stayed at Hotel Resol Tokyo during my Japan trip, and overall it was a really good experience. The best part about this hotel is definitely the location. It’s very close to the train stations, which made traveling around Tokyo super easy and convenient. The rooms are clean, well-maintained, and designed smartly. Yes, the rooms are a bit small, but that’s pretty normal in Tokyo, and they’ve used the space really well. What I liked the most was the comfort and vibe. It’s a quiet, cozy place after a long day of exploring the city. The staff were also very polite and helpful throughout the stay. Overall, it’s not a luxury hotel, but it gives you everything you need — clean rooms, great location, and a comfortable stay.
What a perfect location. Close to multiple lines (4-9 minutes walk), close to akihabara to get all the shopping and excitement but just across the river for it to be quiet and residential. The staff are lovely and extremely helpful. 2 waters a day and fresh towels (you leave old ones outside and you get a new bag). Then cleaning every 3rd day, and you can request more if needed. Breakfast opens at 7am, which is early for Tokyo, and the restaurant oversees the river. Extremely quaint and comfortable. Our favorite accommodation in this area.
Its location is great within tons of shopping and restaurants. It is accessible to four plus train and subway lines. Bed is one of the most comfortable I remember, slightly bigger than Japanese double.(moderate double room). Bathroom is a good size and clean. The receptionists are all welcoming and helpful to my enquiries. I did not use the breakfast since I find more interesting Japanese restaurants within walk distance. The downside: I am constantly frustrated with the room size and lack of shelves to put laptop. I saw visitors eating bring in foods such as cup noodles in the lobby where they have a communal wooden table and chairs.
