Toyoko Inn Narita Airport Honkan

10/10 Excellent

"Good value and location very convenient"

Hotel Villa Fontaine Grand Haneda Airport - Directly connected to Haneda Airport Terminal 3

10/10 Excellent

"The room is small if you have a lot of luggage but the convenience is hard to beat. The room was clean and the bathroom was spacious enough for 2 people to bathe in. The beds are hard but the amenities were good. The ac got cold. Check in and check out was easy and I could store my luggage for free at the front."

Hotel Nikko Narita

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel, very reasonably priced and excellent for a Narita airport departure. The staff are excellent and professional and even the shuttle bus staff were very helpful and friendly. The rooms are a tad small and not the most modern but overall I think the staff make this hotel as they treat it as a high end hotel with their professionalism. Very impressed and will use this hotel again."

"Amazing staff. From the initial greeting the staff were wonderful. I could feel the stress leaving my body as I was guided through the entrance and through the check in process. The bath was also great for unwinding. Lots of nearby restaurants for dinner. Recommend the buffet for an easy start to the next day. Food was excellent. Thank you to all the staff for the wonderful stay."

Tobu Hotel Levant Tokyo

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the location of the hotel. Very close to the subway and a shopping mall. There's a grocery store at the bottom of the hotel which we frequented quite often. The rooms are on the small size, but it seems that's fairly common with Japanese hotels. The laundromat is only 10 minute walk from the hotel. There is a 7-11 near the hotel where you can buy prepared food and lots of snacks."
