Although the appearance is not very flashy or luxurious, it has a calm Japanese atmosphere instead.

The lobby is spacious and has nice chairs and tables so you can relax. A lot of expensive dishes and figurines are displayed.

IMG_0704 (2) copy

The flowers decorated in the lobby are always gorgeous and I am always moved.

IMG_0704 (5) copy

There are also a nice chairs in front of the front desk, so when you check in you can sit back and relax if you’re a little tired. It is nice because you do not have to wait long to check-in and check-out. They have a large number of staffs, so they will carry your luggage quickly and arrange taxis right away.

What is the Prime Superior King Room like?

IMG_0704 (35) copy

Guest room entrance door.

IMG_0704 (27) copy

There was a bathroom on the right and the closet on the left.

IMG_0704 (19) copy

The rooms are large and spacious. I think this is unusual for a hotel in central Tokyo. In addition, you can enjoy the atmosphere of the Japanese-Western style.

IMG_0704 (34) copy

The bed is order made by a famous company called Sealy, and it was very comfortable to sleep on. I was able to sleep well.

IMG_0704 (26) copy

There is also a turndown service, and when you return to the room in the evening, paper cranes and chocolate are placed on the bedside table with a message.

IMG_0704 (37) copy

There was a TV across from the bed.

IMG_0704 (31) copy

There was also a sofa and a table.

IMG_0704 (24) copy

There were windows facing two directions, and light came in very nicely.

IMG_0704 (39) copy

It was not a room with a garden view, but I could still enjoy the view.

IMG_0704 (32) copy

I had a room with a city view. Thankfully, the buildings around me were not tall, so I was able to see the beautiful sunset. If you have a garden view, you can enjoy the garden of Chinzanso, so it is probably more impressive. However, due to the structure of the windows, I thought that if I am not careful, people in other rooms may be able to to see us inside.

Bathroom

IMG_0704 (23) copy

The bathroom is very spacious and has a bath and a shower room. Everything was cleaned very well.

IMG_0704 (22) copy

There was also a TV, so you can take a bath while watching TV. At the side of the bathtub, L’Occitane shampoo, conditioner and body soap were prepared.

IMG_0704 (40) copy

The shower room had a removable shower. Both the shower here and the shower attached to the bathtub had sufficient water pressure.

IMG_0704 (18) copy

The toilet had a washlet function.

IMG_0704 (33) copy

The wash basin has a chair, so you can relax like you are at a spa.

IMG_0704 (30) copy

On the washstand, L’Occitane body lotion and soap were prepared. I was happy because it is expensive to buy.

IMG_0704 (25) copy

There was also mini-size cleansing, facial cleanser, skin lotion, and milky lotion, which I thought woman would appreciated. It was nice to have all these amenities prepared.

IMG_0704 (36) copy

The dryer was Panasonic’s Nano Care series which worked well.

Restaurants and shops in the hotel

IMG_0704 (41) copy

I ate at a Japanese restaurant called “Miyuki.”

IMG_0704 (42) copy

The taste was good, but despite the large number of staff, drinks and food were not served right away, and the wrong dishes were served.

IMG_0704 (44) copy

A person like a manager walked in a hurry almost bumping into me, and it did not feel like a first-class hotel.

IMG_0704 (43) copy

It was a restaurant that I would not want to go if there are restaurants around the hotel.

IMG_0704 (46) copy

Inside the garden there was a multi-course restaurant called “Shinsui”.

IMG_0704 (45) copy

You can enjoy your meal while looking at the colors of the garden that changes with the season.

IMG_0704 (48) copy

In addition to the shop dealing with ingredients such as bread and scones, there was also a boutique and a jewelry shop in the hall which sels souvenirs and goods of “Shozanso.”

Facilities in the hotel

IMG_0704 (47) copy

There was a spa called “Sakai.”

IMG_0704 (49) copy

There was a business center on the same floor as the front desk. Because it is a private room with a computer and a printer, so it is a nice environment for working.

IMG_0704 (50) copy

Chinzan-so has a garden that makes you forget that you are in the middle of a big city. Walking in this garden makes me happy, no matter how many times I come here. Fresh green and autumn leaves are the best season.

Environment around the hotel

The area around the hotel is a quiet residential area, so it seems very safe at night. There aren’t many places to eat and drink, so I think it’s better to go downtown or eat at the hotel restaurant or order room service. However, the restaurants are expensive. It’s a little inconvenient because there are no convenience stores nearby.

Staff and customer base

The staff were very polite. Perhaps because there are many foreign tourists and business people staying, the Japanese hospitality is cherished and you can receive detailed services.

IMG_0704 (5) copy

On the day I stayed, the staff said that there were many wedding guests. Also, it seemed like there were many rich families staying here. I did not see many foreigners this time.

Access

The nearest station is the Edogawabashi Station on the Tokyo Metro Yurakucho Line, which is about a 10-minute walk from the hotel. It may be a little inconvenient to walk if you have a lot of luggage because there are some hills on the way. In addition, I think that access is not good to get to the city, because it is necessary to get on the metropolitan bus from Mejiro Station on the JR Yamanote Line. There are also several buses going to the airport a day, but the time is limited, so I felt that it would be easier to go by train.

Summary

I had a nice stay at this hotel. The good thing was that the room was luxurious and spacious for the price, and I was able to escape the city. Also, because the service was very thorough and there were many staff who noticed even small things, I was able to stay in peace. I think it is a hotel that is good for all gender and ages. The only disapointing thing was the restaurant “Miyuki.” If they do not fix the operation of the restaurant, I do not think it would survive.
