I have stayed at this hotel 4 times over the last 6 years. Its getting a little tired now and I will look elsewhere next time. The twin rooms are very small and the room furnishings are looking pretty worn. It has over a thousand rooms but its a dumping ground for large tour groups. The ONLY good thing about... More

Stayed 6 days this April 2012. The room and bathroom smell musky, beds and carpet had seen better days. Elevators is like riding the subway or train during rush hours except you had to squeeze between luggages too. There are no frills or service to talk about at this hotel and I would leave it at that. The only saving... More

Stayed here in April 2012. It was a good stay for 2 nights. The hotel has 24/7 mini mart at basement. Next door is a big department store. There are many nice places such as wine shop, fashions and restaurants. The restaurant at basement has great buffet. Steak, Sushi, King Crab and desserts. If you like Tokyo, stay here for... More

Coming from the Ikebukuro station, look for signs to "Sunshine" which is the mega complex that the hotel is located in and get out at Exit 35. Cross the road and walk along Sunshine 60 which is a pedestrian walkway with lots of shops and restaurants and people blaring sales pitches from megaphones. Enter Sunshine City and ask for directions... More

Hotels in Tokyo can cost you a bundle so we jumped at the Sunshine City Prince price. $140 per night, sure we'll take it! The hotel is located about 1 km from the Ikebukuro train station. Great location! If you are heading there for the first time I would recommend taking a taxi, for 710 yen it will get you... More

Decent hotel. Only problem was I had requested 2 single beds for me and my mate and when we got there it was a double bed! The hotel staff told me the hotel was fully booked which I found hard to believe as there were not that many people about. I asked to speak to the manager and he magically... More

Given this price, in Tokyo, the quality of the room has already exceeded my expectation. The room is clean and not so small. Walkable distance to the JR station. This is a huge hotel with over 1,000 rooms. However, the main entrance is located inside the shopping mall which is not easy to find.

We chose this hotel because we managed to book it at a discount and it did not disappoint us overall. Generally, staff were friendly and helpful. There were a few fluent English speaking staff at the front desk. We had a room for 3 adults on the 29th Floor. There were two single beds (large) and one rollaway. Room size... More

Overall, it is such a nice hotel because of its reasonable price. After the unfortunately and shocking disaster arose in Japan, many hotel+flight packages was being promoted with the big sale prices. We stayed in the semi double room(1 double bed), the size is hardly enough for 2 persons and our stuff. (we had bought tons of stuff in this... More
