Higashikujo Kitakarasumacho Holidays from £1,737

Located just right outside Universal City Station and Universal Studios Japan itself, this is one of the best hotels you can stay at if you're planning for a trip down to USJ. It can be on the pricier side, but if you treasure your sleep and want to be right outside the gate just as it opens, this is your definite go-to for lodging. Also helps that your bed is just a 5-10 min walk away from the gates after a long day of queuing and walking (and of course playing) at USJ! Our feet and back were aching, and it was a relief we could rest up without travelling via train again. It was also a nice touch to have breakfast the next morning waiting for us downstairs. Amenities are great, you've got your usual heated toilet seat with bidet, good hot shower and tub, aircon and all. Pillows could be better, but all the staff there were great. Breakfast was good too. It was a continental breakfast with some japanese dishes. Free flow drinks and ice cream. There was a kids section at the buffet that had all kids would ever want, fries, spaghetti bolognese and some other fried stuff (no veggies HAHA) and these tables were thoughtfully lowered, so that they could help themselves to them. A very nice touch. All in all, will be back again for our next USJ trip when the Donkey Kong land opens

Room was very clean. Staff were very friendly. Location close to bus stations and convenience stores. Dual washer/dryer came in handy for small loads of laundry. Overall very good experience and would definitely stay here again.

Overall not bad just the room too small

Awesome staff, very clean.

We got an incredible deal for this hotel—about $45 for one night. The next day the price was $129. The hotel is well located near Niko Castle and train station. It’s super nice. Tiny rooms but adequate. All amenities top notch. Incredibly clean and stylish. Grab it any time you can get a deal!
