Best Hotel Group in Japan! A must stay

The Mitsui Hotel Group have some of the best hotels in all of Japan. The staff was very friendly and spoke really good English. The room was absolutely beautiful and very spacious. I opted for the room with the washer and dryer and was able to wash everything during my trip there. The bathroom was spacious and clean, the shower room is my favorite thing about Japan as well as their toilets. The public bath was very clean and comfortable especially after a long day of exploring. I had never been so relaxed before in a hotel than I did here. Everything was so comfortable and convenient. Will for sure be returning.

We enjoyed the fact we could just get out the door and have access to so many restaurants and stores, as well , as nice walk to many of the landmarks, museum right across the street . Having the shower and bathtub , and all well thought about amenities was great .

I was so amazed by this hotel that I actually extended my stay. Ohata and Kamide did an amazing job by the service they provided. Besides the excellent service provided by the staff, the LOCATION of the hotel is in the center of Everything yet tucked away from all of the noise. Rooms were great. Excellent bedding and comfortable mattress. (Which is very important) and lastly the ONSEN. After a long day of walking around the city it was great to come back and detox . I'll definitely recommend this hotel and I cannot wait to return. The staff at this location were the best.
