We stayed at the B Ochanomizu for 4 nights, and for us, it was the perfect location. Within easy walking distance of Akihabara and several different train lines, it made it incredibly convenient to get around the city. We even walked to Tokyo station in 25 minutes (to explore, there are lots of transit options) The staff were wonderfully friendly and helpful, and the hotel even had a free coffee machine and often little snacks as well. The rooms were a good size (keeping in mind that space is a premium in this city) and we loved the king-size bed. The water pressure was excellent, and we took regular advantage of the free tea. I would absolutely stay here next time I'm in Tokyo!

Delightful Boutique Hotel

A delightful boutique hotel beautifully situated in a quiet street near the very centre of Tokyo and right next to Awajicho Metro Station. It has beautifully clean, well-designed rooms, helpful and friendly staff and delicious free doughnuts and coffee. Highly recommended.

Great little hotel. Room is small but that’s pretty much most hotels in Tokyo. Dry clean and friendly staff. Also free coffee and donuts in lobby for your enjoyment. The area is quiet and has several metro within walking distance of just a few minutes. Stayed here twice and would book again!

The staff here are all awesome and very helpful! Our room was always stocked with ammenities that we needed and cleaned very well each time. The hotel is in walking distance to public transport and there are convenience stores nearby for anything you need. The room is small but cozy. It was a great stay for us while we were in Tokyo!

The hotel is in a good location for transport links. We were able to travel around tokyo with ease. The hotel is in good condition and is very clean. Staff members were very friendly and even allowed us to check in early because they saw our children were very tired. The free coffee at reception was a nice touch. The room was very small and had no storeage space but i found this to be normal in Japan.

We booked the two twin size beds because it allowed us to have a slightly larger room for two people. We were able to store all our luggages under the bed. There was a large bench area, mini fridge, kettle. I wish there was a closet area instead there were a few hangers provided. Train station, familymart and coffee shops were just a few steps away. My only complaint is that the room was quite dusty - curtains, top of the headboard and around the windows.

This hotel was great for our family. The room with two beds are quite spacious compared to other hotels in Japan. Its clean and has a modern design. The kids loved the free donuts in the lobby. One thing that can be improved is probably the addition of more washer and dryer since there is only one. The location is walkable to the center of Akihabara but also far enough that its quiet around the hotel.

The staff were exceedingly friendly and accommodating. The rooms are small (expected in Tokyo), but it felt like we were getting to experience life in Tokyo for an extended stay here. It became a core part of our memories made here. You’re very close to Awajicho station (2min walk to exit/entrance A5) and maybe five minutes from Shin-Ochanomizu with a few others just a little further away. About a 10 minute walk into Akihabara as well! The neighborhood was very cute and quickly felt like home. You have a bunch of great options for food and drinks close by. Great if you’re looking for an area that is calm and tranquil on your vacation.

Very good hotel!! The staff was very helpful with all our questions. They also have luggage services meaning they help you to send your luggage to your next hotel or to the airport. Just remember that you need to send the luggage 2 days in advance to your flight date. Also the hotel is super close to the Awajicho exit 5. This station is part of the private metro lines (so JR pass doesn’t work) but it has direct connection with Tokyo Station, therefore it is very convenient. The rool was very comfortable.
