Sotetsu Fresa Inn Ochanomizu Jimbocho

Cheaper compared to other hotels in Tokyo. The room is super tiny. Struggled to open my large luggage properly. But I only slept in the room. Was out during day. The location is great and so many free amenities like mask, bath powder, moisturiser etc

Stayed at this hotel for a week for my trip in Tokyo. Since my goal this time was to stroll around and do shopping, this hotel was a good choice - cost effective with an acceptable distance to the subway. One thing to keep in mind is that the entrance with the elevator is the farthest exit from the hotel, so if you're lugging a lot of luggage, maybe this hotel is not your best choice. A lot of stairs. However, the Jimbocho station is a good station to stay in as it can easily transfer to other popular stations like Shibuya, Ikebukuro and others. The amenities are available at the ground floor. Lots of restaurants within walking distance as well.

Once again. Really liked this place it was near hotel and v solo friendly!

Breakfast is 2 choices of your own bread + unlimited toast + salad box + coffee/tea/water. the salad box is fixed (broccoli and baby scallop), is a bit dull if you stay here for a long period. Hotel provide various spa salt and facial mask, lotion, and moisturizer. It is very useful. hair slyer is also free to rental. It is a very female friendly place.

The sevice is excellent. There are alsway washing machine and daily gadget at the lobby. Well cleaned toilet!

I booked A standard double room, it is small but good for a solo traveller. Great location accessible to many cities and attractions in Tokyo. If you have heavy luggage use exit A8/A9 with escalator -4mins walk to hotel. A7 exit is nearest to the hotel but no escalator or elevator -2 mins walk to hotel, you need to use stairs with yr heavy luggage. Hotel is sort of hidden in a lane if you did not pay attention you will miss it easily. Staff are friendly and helpful. For the price of breakfast you paid , please do not have high expectation. The assortment of bread 🥖 🥯 🍞is good enough with a free box of 🥗 and free flow of coffee ☕️ n 🫖. I explored a lot of attractions, eg hike mt Takao, shop in Asakusa , togoshi Ginza, visited Kita a tranquil shrine in yoyogi Koen within tokyo.
