Tokyu Stay Takanawa(Shinagawa Area)

Great location, bigger than the average Tokyo hotel room and equipped with 2 in 1 washing and dryer machine. 2 min walk to train station and convenience store. Limited daily cleaning (empty trash and change towels only)

I was given a very big room to stay at and I must say I'm very happy with the amenities and services provided to me and my friend when we stayed for 4 nights. The receptionists are all very friendly and helpful in terms of responding to the questions and issues I had during my stay. The amazing thing was that they allowed me and my friend to leave our luggage at the hotel on the day we checked out so that me and my friend were able to go get lunch and explore the area around the hotel a bit more before we needed to leave for Osaka in the late afternoon. Overall I would really recommend staying here when you're visiting Kyoto. Furthermore, there's a bus stop just right outside the hotel whereby you can take the bus to go to the main Kyoto area or anywhere you like.

This is actually an extremely well located hotel because the entrance to the metro (A7, Sengakuji) along the Keikyu/Asakusa line is actually just 150/200m around the corner and that brings you direct to/from Haneda! We got to the Haneda literally in 18mins on the Limited Express (slightly longer depending on the actual service but even the Local is under half an hour)! Rooms were clean and well equipped with a washing machine! Staff was friendly and they were actually the ones who gave me the directions and best timing for the Haneda train. Do note if you arrive at Shinagawa JR, you should just take the Metro one stop to A7. We didn't realize this coming in by shinkansen and eventually ended up cabbing. Highly recommended if you want a convenient location get to and from Haneda. Nothing much near the hotel itself in terms of food etc but again the metro is just so conveniently located!
