Shimo-shizu Holidays from £1,027

Clean room and staff was friendly

This is a gorgeous and elegant hotel with courteous staff and beautiful Onsen baths. We arrived in the evening and enjoyed the magical gardens with lights and mist. There are numerous restaurants on the grounds but none serve a quick simple dinner. They are all multiple course Kaiseke style and expensive (16000-20000 yen = around $100 per person). Room service is also expensive. Recommend to book the meal plan rather than playing it by ear like we did. If no meal plan, then the best option for a reasonable price dinner is room service Ramen served after 9.30pm - the server who brought it laid it out like a ceremony - delicious and a fun experience. The hotel is not so central but the 20 min JR train ride plus 10m walk is worth it if you value a quiet local neighborhood vibe.

Clean room and friendly staff. Walking distance to restaurants, stores, and Tokyo tower.

We have a great stay! The room was clean, they have a gym, laundry, and common space/area with tables and microwave. I would definitely recommend to book with breakfast buffet, it was great and saves if you reserved ahead. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Also great location, very close to ueno station and ueno park. Definitely recommend!

Convenient in room laundry, spacious room, and the kitchen facilities you may need in one package. Both the room and the location of the hotel near the park and away from the main streets make it very family friendly. There is staff to help you check in.
