Tokyu Stay Gotanda

Staff were very nice and helpful right at the time we checked in. Each room we stayed, there is a washing/drying machine so it was a nice thing to have for guess that staying more than a week. Room was clean but a little to small even if you have 2 adults and 1 children staying in 1 room (and especially if you have big luggages). Nice coffee machine on the entrance so you can always make a coffee-on-the go just before you leave the hotel. Not so much options for the included breakfast (I think only 6 or 8 options) because it's not a buffet and if you stay more than 4 days you'll get bored with the menu. We really like the location, very close to Gotanda Station where most of the JR Line train stops in Tokyo. Seven Eleven and Lawson just around the corner and Don Quijote straight behind our hotel (can find lots of things here). We only find one Halal restaurant here if you are a moslem traveler called Grill Hunter which served Hamburg steak located very close to the train station.

Location: 3-4 mins walk from JR Gotanda Station ( 15 mins ride of Yamanote line to Shinjuku) and Right in front of Asakusa line A6 stair exit ( just 1 transfer at Sengakuji st. to Narita airport). If you need to use elevator, you can use A4 elevator exit near JR Gotanda st. 7-11 is beside the hotel (one of the reason our actual Tokyo expense were underbudget). Donki is behind the hotel. For fellow muslim who needs to do Friday prayer: Islamic Culture Exchange Center Higashigotanda is 300mtrs or 5mins away. Khutba is in Japanese according to my son. In-Room Washing machine: This really saves my time. I put my laundry and turn the machine on right before bed. Sure the machine is noisy. But we were always super tired of walking everywhere. So we always had good night sleep. If you want your clothes to be really dry, make sure the washing+rinsing+spinning+drying lights are on and only use half the capacity. Otherwise, it will still damp and you need to run the drier again/sun dry the clothes near the window (hotel nightwear + this washing machine really help us packing light). And the use of detergent+machine is free btw. Room size (Residential Double) is decent for a Tokyo hotel (2 adults+1 toddler). It is definitely larger than the same hotel in Shinjuku.

Staff where helpful, kind and had great recommendations for local restaurants. The location is great with the subway right by the front door and the JR line a minute walk away. Room size is bigger than most in Japan and has a washer/dryer in the room. Great value for money. I would highly recommend this hotel. Its a short train rides to major wards and has main train lines for easy transport without it being to overwhelming as a visitor. Would stay again.

The hotel was big enough to feel safe and professional but small enough to feel personal. The bed was incredibly comfortable as was the room, it had a very cozy studio feel. Loved being able to put my clothes away in the decent sized wardrobe and the washer/dryer was fantastic. Knowing prior to travel I had that in my room meant I could pack less and just wash clothes a few times during my stay. The location was absolutely perfect. Right near the train station and convenience stores and restaurants. The staff were absolutely lovely, so friendly and helpful. I’d absolutely book here again for my next trip to Tokyo.

The location is great with whole lots of restaurants, shops, and convenience stores. Also a stone's throw away from Gotanda train station. The staff are nice and helpful Additional: there is a coffee machine in the lobbt. which serves a surprisingly nice coffee. It function from 7 am to midnight and it's free
