Okura Hotels & Resorts - accommodation in Ebisu

This was one the better hotels we stayed at while in Japan. The room was extremely spacious for the price👍. Able to fit 2 large suitcases in the room while open and still walk around. The room has great AC, but could use a good dusting as it was quite stuffy at first. The window openings and carpets need to be cleaned better. We liked that the garbage and recycling bins were on the larger side. Beds were comfy (not too soft and pretty firm, great for back issues) but the stuffyness of the room also applied to the bedsheets on our first night and was a little difficult for my allergies (but I'm also allergic to everything). The washroom, as with all toilets in Japan, have this strange smell from the toilet. Something we are not familiar with in Canada. An air freshener would have been great. The tv only has Japanese channels but was a smart tv that could play Netflix, Amazon Prime etc without trouble. There's also a great bakery downstairs and many convenience stores and grocery stores. Super close to the train stations as well.

I liked the Japanese style bathroom. Hotel felt safe and room was relatively quiet despite the night life scene outside (Shinjuku). Great service from staff and was able to borrow a hair straightener and skincare set.

Train station is a major plus and makes up for the distance from Tokyo BUT if Disneyland is your purpose this hotel is the best!
