ICI HOTEL Ueno Shin Okachimachi

The hotel doesn't have much in terms of facilities (no sauna, bath, onsen or the like and no restaurant either, it's breakfast only), but the room and the bed were the most comfortable ones out of all the hotels I stayed jn Japan. I don't even know why, but I got some really restful sleep there, which is the most important thing about a hotel. The smaller rooms they have (1 double bed) are absolutely perfect for a single person. For 2 people I can only recommend them if you're traveling very light, and even then it's probably better to take one of their bigger rooms. It's also located in such a way that you can walk to both Akihabara and Asakusa (or easily take the train) and you can get to Shibuya and shinjuku in 30 mins using only 1 train line, which was amazingly.

Worth the price. Friendly and helpful customer service, clean and good breakfast. The front desk is able to communicate in simple English which is good enough. They helped us to call taxi and send luggages to other hotel using local logistic service. The room size is acceptable for couple with 2 big luggages.

Super comfortable room and bed, with good lighting, USB ports, and various amenities in the room. I love the clean and accessible bathroom. Location is decent, it's in a quiet area near Ueno, located 3 mins walk next to Shin-Okachimachi station, which is a station with direct connections to the airport so it's quite convenient. Near so many konbinis.

Excellent staff - friendly, knowledgeable and helpful; Oedo line and Tsbuka express station under 5 minutes walk, 3 other stations in 10 minute range, including access to Yamanote line. Numerous convenience stores, childern parks and restaurants in the vicinity! The recharging switches and lighting switches right next to beds were very convenient.... WiFi was excellent!

Location: Short walk from JR Ueno and JR Okachimachi and Keisei Ueno stations and by extension close to Ueno Park. Convenient if you are coming from Narita via Skyliner. There's also a many other stations in the area to get you to other parts of Tokyo. Next to Ameyoko, easy to get some shopping and food. Stay: I though the room size was adequate; photos give an accurate representation on the size. Laundry was self-service and instructions were given were good. At the time I stayed they offered bottles of water for 50 Yen, really missed this service from the other hotel stays during our trip as we kept buying bottled water at the conbini. Staff: Excellent service as usual from Japanese hospitality. Very helpful with arranging luggage delivery to our next hotel.
