Monterey Hanzomon Hotel, Tokyo

Hanzamon hotel wasn't the best location when it comes to JR lines, but of course the subway lines were near, which was good. I assumed that breakfast was included to the price and when I found out that it was not, I disappointed a little. But my family really enjoyed the good hotel. Especially the paper in the door every morning was really nice!

If this hotel were in San Francisco, it would have been called a botique hotel. It was almost new, very clean, and modern in decor. The staff was efficient but not aloof. The neighborhood was quiet which was a welcome change after the chaos of the main train/subway stations. I would definitely book this hotel again on my next trip to Tokyo.

Although not centrally located for tourists,the hotel, part of a group of hotels, proved to be entirely satisfactory for a 2 night stopover

Rooms OK size for Tokyo and new when we first stayed there. This was the second time I stayed here and have recommended it to friends since. Staff don't always have the best level of English but are very accommodating - even printing me out a picture of what the building I was meeting my friend at looked like when I asked if they knew where it was. The hotel was in an excellent location on the Hanzomon line just a few stops from Shibuya and Shinjuku and on a good subway line for connections to other parts of Tokyo (if you come out at exit number 5, the hotel is directly the other side of the street). The area itself was very peaceful.

I really enjoyed staying at this hotel. It's very conveniently located in Hanzomon and I loved the fact that I could go for a run around the Imperial Palace every morning. Although there is only one restaurant in the hotel (Chinese), there is a good number of food outlets and convenience stores within the vicinity. The hotel is also located close to Ginza and Ichigaya, with good public transport connections to Shinjuku, Roppongi and other places in Tokyo. I don't really have any negative comments, apart from the rooms being slightly on the smaller side. However, this is the norm for Japanese business hotels, and actually this one compares well to other hotels I have stayed in previously. I checked into this hotel twice within one week and would definitely use it again in the future.

Not all hotel (even the 4 star hotel) may not provide coffee and english tea pack in the room. Monterey Hanzomon provide Green tea, coffee and english tea in sachets. They provide a very complete range of toiletries to the guest. For example, tooth brush with tooth paste, hair clip, Razor, soap, shampoo and conditioner. All in 2 sets.
