Hotel Bellclassic Tokyo
This was my second stay at this hotel, and I’m happy to say it lived up to the high standard of my first visit. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout—check-in, check-out, and even just a quick hello in the hallway made me feel welcome. Location-wise, it’s perfect: just a 3-minute walk from JR Otsuka Station, which is small and easy to navigate. Compared to walking to Shinjuku or Tokyo Station (which can be exhausting), this spot is a real gem for travelers who value convenience. Nearby, you’ve got Ikebukuro shopping district and the local Otsuka commercial street—plenty of options for dining and browsing. The only downside? No washing machine in the room. But no worries—I found a coin laundry nearby by searching 'coin laundry' on Google Maps. The one I used was Koinrandoripierohigashiikebukuroten, which is clean, well-maintained, and reasonably priced. It’s a great solution if you’re staying longer or need to freshen up your clothes. Overall, this hotel offers excellent value, comfort, and ease of access—definitely a top pick for anyone visiting Tokyo.

The location is fantastic—just steps from the train station, making it super easy to get into the city center. The front desk staff are incredibly friendly and offer a nice touch by letting guests choose their own drink—yes, even a bottle of water! When I arrived early in the rain, they not only dried off my luggage but also carried it up to my room. That kind of thoughtful service really stood out. The view isn’t of the Tokyo Skytree, but the railway scenery outside my window has its own charm—urban, quiet, and uniquely relaxing. A great value for the price, and definitely worth recommending.
