Nihon Seinenkan Hotel

Pros +

• Polished hotel with far more space in the room than I expected. Everything was pleasant during my stay and I loved having the space to open my luggage and still have space to walk around. 500ml bottled water provided every day was also much appreciated. The separated bathroom and toilet were also pretty big and I really cannot praise more that the hotel provides tray organisers on the bathroom shelf. It made me feel at home that I didn't have to haphazardly place things on the counter. The hot tub/jacuzzi in the public bath was also a pleasant surprise, and I liked that this hotel provides keycards for the public bath instead of making people remember passcodes. As someone who starts the day late, I'm also appreciative of being able to have the room cleaned all the way up to 3pm. Staff were always courteous and helpful and made it feel like a 5-star experience staying here. I liked the location as well, it's not too far from Gaienmae Station and my favourite Doutor Coffee. I would definitely like to stay here again.
• Great view and for Tokyo, a really big room, with a great bathroom.
• The hotel has a konbini downstairs which is really handy, and there are 2 train stations which are within 10mins walking distance. This hotel has a view of Meiji Jingu baseball staduim and is walking distance to the Rugby, Soccer and Baseball grounds.

Cons -

• I am not sure the heater was working, I didn't feel any warmth from the A/C and ended up changing it to fan mode instead. I am sure if I brought it up they would have let me change rooms, but I was too lazy to shift my luggage. Thankfully the weather was not too cold outside so I could tolerate without heating. I personally would have preferred being able to put all my belongings including clothes into a locker, rather than open baskets (there's smaller lockers that fit only small items).
• The bed and the blanket were a bit small. So for two people, it was not ideal.
