WASHINGTON R&B Hotel Ueno Hirokoji

Near train station, just need to figure out which exit is the closest one. Breakfast was poor, not much option. (The Egg was good, maybe was the best thing to eat for breakfast) Room was very small. But everything looked new, amenities were good.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at a charming small hotel in Ueno, and I can’t recommend it enough! The location is simply unbeatable, with the Ginza Line just a footstep away, making it incredibly easy to navigate the city. We came back at Ueno station from our snowboard trip. Whether you want to explore the bustling streets of Akihabara or visit the serene Ueno Park, public transport options are right at your doorstep. The hotel itself exudes a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff were friendly and attentive, always ready to assist with any questions or recommendations. My room was cozy and well-appointed, providing a perfect retreat after a day of sightseeing. Be aware that the room sizes in Japan are usually tiny. The area around the hotel is vibrant, filled with delightful tax free shops and many street foot options giving you a taste of local life. Overall, this hotel is an excellent choice for anyone looking to explore Tokyo with convenience and comfort. I can't wait to return!

Within 10 mins walk from the Keisei Skyliner Ueno Station and Ueon Station. Very easy to move around with the nearby Metro station just 2 mins walk from the hotel. The area is the shopping and eat out place for both the locals and the visitors. Department store Matsuzakaya is just one block away. The room is the usual small size found in most basic Japanese hotel. Breakfast is very basic and only has very limited choices. Overall speaking, for those who look for convenience to go to mUeon Station, it’s still a value-for-money hotel.

Perfect for solo travelers. Room is a bit small, but value for the money. A block away from JR station makes it easy access. Would definitely stay again.

It was quite tricky to find a clean, modern yet reasonable priced for a quick trip in Ueno. The hotel was fairly new and modern. Bedding, shower products and breakfast were great specially the freshly prepared curry rice and cold brew. The staffing (front desk & cleaning)team is professional, courteous and serious but I won’t go as far as friendly, a little smile here and there would make the welcoming experience even better, especially after a scramble of Tokyo traffic experience for most of us visiting, but that’s just me too used to the “small talk” in western culture.

We love the triple room. Though the space is limited to put our large luggages but we have 2 bathrooms and 1 toilet. everything is well designed to maximize the space. The location is excellent. close to Ueno area and next to parco. Breakfast is average but we have other options around neighbourhood. will come back if we visit Tokyo next time
