4 star hotels in Japan

The breakfast and public bath are excellent

I loved my stay at this hotel! Very nice staff and very cozy rooms! Would visit again!

The best hotel in Tokyo! Hotel Kazusaya is a wonderful place with incredibly kind staff, great facilities, and an excellent location. The breakfast was absolutely delicious as well. I’m a Korean traveler who doesn’t speak Japanese very well, but the staff treated me so kindly, which I truly appreciated. The hotel is very clean and well maintained. Highly recommended! 😊 東京で最高のホテルです！ ホテルかずさやは、スタッフの...

The room was great in every aspect, and it's not far from the subway station and a shopping mall. The hot springs on the 2nd floor are a unique feature.

The bathroom fan was broken, and there was a hole in the bedsheet.

The hotel room is nice although it is not very large, it is closed to the JR station and very convenient. The onsen is nice too! There is some convenient stores nearby but it not a crowded area.

It's such a beautiful and lovely hotel 🌺. This is the best hotel I've stayed at so far. The value for money at this hotel is incredible ❣️. Why do I say that? Because of its excellent service, cleanliness, and proximity to the station. It's especially convenient for getting to Chinatown, Motomachi, and other areas. It's also very quiet at night, and the surroundings are beautiful 😋. Since it's an American...

I initially wanted to stay in Minatomirai, but really didn't want an old room, so I chose the Hyatt – and I'm so glad I did! The service was super nice, as expected from Japanese hospitality. The location is excellent, very close to the subway station, and the airport shuttle stop at Yamashita Park is also nearby. It's really convenient for visiting attractions like Chinatown, Yamashita Park, Red Brick...

The hotel's location is great, very close to the port and Chinatown. The staff are polite and enthusiastic, the room facilities are complete, and the breakfast is also good.

The hotel service was excellent, and the location is great. However, parking in the underground garage for a rental car costs 2000 per day.

The hotel boasts an excellent location. It's a mere 5-minute walk from the MM line subway station, and after crossing just two streets, you're in Chinatown. The waterfront is also only a 5-minute stroll away. The room, though under 30 square meters, is considered spacious for Japan, and the bathroom features a convenient wet/dry separation. My room service calls were answered within minutes each time...

The hotel was excellent! We didn't have breakfast, but the environment was great and the price was quite reasonable. The best part was that the beds could be put together. It was truly wonderful. My child loved it...

Easily accessible by car. Nice view next to the lake. Got an upgrade room to the suite. Super spacious and quiet. Free alcohol and other drinks in the fridge. Free lounge on the 13th floor. Breakfast was buffet style. Everything was great for the stay.

Serenity found! 🌊🏨 Grand Mercure Lake Hamana Resort & Spa is like a tranquil oasis. Stunning lake views, relaxing onsen, and excellent service make it a perfect escape. Whether you're seeking relaxation or adventure, this resort has it all 👍

If you do not have a car it is not the best location however if you just want to live in peace it may be a perfect place. The nearest convenience store is about 18 minutes by walking. The nearest bus stop to the HUGE Aeon mall is about 15 minutes walking. Take bus number 20. About $2usd The hotel does offer a free shuttle FROM THE SOUTH SIDE EXIT and the maisaka train station has a city bus stop...

Decent place. Has shuttle buses to bring you to Maisaka JR station South exit. See picture for the schedule but please confirm with hotel when you check in. The room was large but the toilet was small. Bath tub for bathing for soaking is deep enough but not very big. It has a nice gift shop which opens only from 430pm to 9pm. Get some local produce as gifts. You can also seek gift shop staff to help...

Excellent views, quiet place, good size rooms for Japan.

(Addition 1) Daiwa Royal Hotel is a nationwide hotel operated by Daiwa House. Nowadays, well-funded manufacturers are developing hotel chains, but it is a long-established chain of resort hotels. The room is both for members and for general sale. The hotels are located in good places all over the country, especially Mt. Bandai and Mt. Oyama. Lake Hamana was also a scenic spot, but I visited because...

Right at the T3 departure level, which is super convenient. The room was spacious, and since I booked a premium floor, I even got a glimpse of Mount Fuji from afar, plus complimentary soft drinks. Breakfast didn't have a huge selection, but what they offered was very high quality.

Clean hotel conveniently located right at haneda airport terminal 3! Rooms were a bit outdated but still maintained cleanly. Would love if more stuff like face wash etc were provided for convenience.

Very convenient hotel just inside the Terminal 3. Walk less than 100m to check in for flight. Walk about 400m to train or bus station. But not convenient if have car bcos cannot drive to entrance or hotel lobby. Need to drop luggage at terminal 3 entrance or terminal 3 car park and walk to hotel.

Convenient location inside terminal 3, direct access to check-in area

Great location and room is a quite clean. Just take around 5 minutes to convenience store(LAWSON) and which store is 24 hours opening.

Perfectly functional  Check-in and check-out by kiosk Very clean room, excellent bedding, good sound insulation

This is our second stay at this hotel. The location is excellent, less than a 10-minute walk from the subway station, right behind the Shinsaibashi Ferris Wheel, so it's super easy to find. We were two adults and one child, and booked a triple room. The room was genuinely tiny, so small it was hard to even open our luggage, but it had everything we needed. They provide three bottles of water daily...

Quite clean and spacious. Near many pubs and clubs so might be a little rowdy/nois and crowded at night.

Very strategic location Nearby to attractions Nearby to dotonbori Nearby to all convenient stores

Best location! Just beside the dotonbori. Room abit dark, but overall experience is acceptable.

We love our stay in Holiday Inn Osaka. Definately will stay here again for our next trip🤩 Walking distance 6minute to Dontobori. Clean room, a bit spacious compared to others hotel. Recommended.

The room was clean, tidy, and spacious, making for a very comfortable stay. The surrounding area has a complete range of commercial facilities, making dining, accommodation, and transportation very convenient. I recommend visiting the nearby Shinsaibashi for photos and delicious food.

The hotel is large! I remembered having to walk about 5 mins after parking all the back at the back of the carpark. There's so many good things about the hotel. I will just highlight 3 things. Firstly the variety of the food at the buffet restaurant was awesome and so tasty. Secondly the facilities were amazing - indoor heated pool, games room, a shop that sells local produce, launderette etc. Thirdly...

The observatory was a bit disappointing. It was just a rooftop. The chapel building was pretty. There were too many people. Overall, it was okay. I wish I could see the mountain behind me.

I took my elderly mother with me, and we were able to see the beautiful autumn leaves, the open-air bath was very comfortable, and the food was a buffet so we could eat as much as we wanted of what we liked, so everyone had a great time without any stress.

The environment is excellent, the service is great, and there are many activities to participate in at the hotel. Highly recommended!

I've been here many times. The food is really delicious. I'll be back next time I'm in Nasu!

My kids loved the pool. It gets crowded during meal times, so it's best to plan ahead. It was convenient to be able to use the room card to shop within the hotel. Overall, I was satisfied with my stay, so I think it was good.

The hotel is located in prime district with many convenience stores and eatery around. The famous Yatai street is within walking distance. The hotel staffs are very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The room is spacious with fantastic views of the nearby canal. Highly recommended for a good stay in Fukuoka. Thanks!

The hotel is centrally located in the city centre. The facilities are a bit old though.

The room was very clean and had a nice view. The location is also excellent, with plenty of ramen shops, yakiniku restaurants, and supermarkets nearby, making it super convenient for food and drinks. The cherry blossoms downstairs were still blooming when we checked in, which was a beautiful sight.

The location is great, with several convenience stores nearby, making it easy to grab water and drinks for the hotel every day. It's also very close to the subway station. The hotel is a bit old but well-maintained, and the service is very warm. Breakfast is simple but meets expectations. It's a hotel with excellent value for money in Fukuoka.

The location is nearby subway station and the famous local food street. It is very convenient to move around. But also quite some noise at the night as theres alot drinking places just surround the hotel. The bob style short hair reception keep give us rolled eyes and could not understand english and also confused when i try to speak my broken japanese or use the translator. She always end up ignore...

Stayed for 4 nights, the unified air conditioning is not working. We have to open the window for ventilation and allow cool air in. However outside was noisy and it affect the sleeping quality. Good thing is location is good.

Spacious room with spectacular sea view! The room is tidy with great air quality. And the lounge provides a great variety of wine and drink to enjoy the sunset and other great moments during stay.

The buffet was quite crowded, offering a wide variety of food. The coin-operated laundry machines and smoking area were well-equipped. The room amenities included everything except a razor. You can wear yukata and slippers throughout the hotel, and there's a great drink bar available in the evening.

location abit far , but facility are good. You can rent toys to play , table tennis , ground golf. You can watch sunset in the room

The location is a bit far from downtown area, room inside is a bit old, but they have refurbished the entire hall, lift etc. and the hot spring was fantastic! The breakfast selection was very impressive as well, so many selections!

Driving is more suitable for guests. Location is 9 km away from town. Evening free flow drinks.

Good seaview hotel Good service Good foods Good onsen Fresh air Just far location. Maybe we will back next time.

Highly recommended! I had a wonderful stay at Hotel Indigo Karuizawa. The hotel offers great value for money, and I was really impressed by the design—the atmosphere and attention to detail throughout the space are fantastic. The highlight for me was definitely the Ofuro (public bath) and the sauna; they were so relaxing. I slept exceptionally well here. If you’re looking for a peaceful and high...

The hotel environment is beautiful, and the facilities are very new. A special thanks to the staff for their warm hospitality, which really made our trip even better. The only downside is the breakfast—there aren't many options, and the taste is just average. The location is a bit remote, but there is a Lawson and a few restaurants nearby. Plus, the hotel provides a convenient shuttle bus to the train...

My husband and I had the best time! The hotel was conveniently located, a short drive from the train station and ski resorts. It is also very close to a snowboard rental. Want to give a shout-out to Ryu, who helped us communicate with the transport company when they sent us the wrong snowboard. Our stay wouldn't have been so lovely without Ryu and the team. Thank you!

I'd seen some reviews saying the facilities were a bit old-fashioned, but I actually found them to be perfectly fine. It was clean and hygienic, and the staff were very welcoming. Since it was winter, there weren't many tourists, so it was wonderfully quiet. We booked two twin rooms for our group of three adults and one child, and we were all really happy with the room views. We booked breakfast...

The room is quite spacious with a great design, and the bathroom has a separate wet and dry area. The lobby is grand with stunning floor-to-ceiling window views. There are shuttle services to the hot springs and outlet mall nearby, but the most convenient thing is the train station! 👍

I brought my own snowboard to Karuizawa. It's a 70-minute Shinkansen ride from Tokyo Station to JR Karuizawa Station. The Shinkansen luggage racks have straps to secure snowboards. After exiting the station, head to the hotel service center (open until 7 PM) located on the far right of the 7/11 convenience store at the South Exit (Pic 7). You can drop off your luggage there and then explore the Plaza...

I've stayed at Dormy Inn hotels near Mount Fuji before, and this time I tried their Tanimachi location. While getting to popular commercial areas requires a few transfers, the hotel itself is excellent and offers fantastic value for money.

The room was good. Although small, it was enough for a family of three. I booked a twin room, but it didn't have a bathtub. The hotel switched me to a room with a tub. The bed was smaller, but still comfortable enough to sleep in. After soaking in the hot spring every day, there were free ice cream sticks to enjoy to your heart's content, and Yakult in the morning. For this alone, it deserves a full...

Very clean, excellent. Consistent service as always. Small but has everything you need.

Our stay at Dormy Inn Osaka Tanimachi with the kids was absolutely fantastic! The room was spacious enough for the children to move around comfortably, and the cleanliness was top-notch. The bedding felt incredibly soft. The hotel's natural hot spring was a huge hit – the kids loved it, and it was so relaxing for the adults too. The staff were super friendly and always ready to help with any questions...

The room was very comfortable, and the front desk staff was excellent; they even allowed us to check in early. You can opt to visit the hot springs in the afternoon when it's less crowded and peaceful. The cold drinks are from Hershey's, which is a nice touch. And you absolutely must try the ramen they offer in the evening – it's fantastic! Plus, there's an amazing tonkatsu restaurant nearby, about...

The hotel isn't large, but it's well-designed. There's a hot spring upstairs which is very clean. It's about a 7-8 minute walk from the subway station, so it's easy to find. Plus, there are three supermarkets right outside, which is super convenient.

Nice hard bed, friendly staff. Close to castle and garden , but 20 minutes walk from station.

Best was the receptionist! A young and very professional gentleman that helped us with everything along our stay, he normally works in Kyoto but came for a week to the hotel in kanazawa. Hope to see you at the hotel insomnia KYOTO next time we pass through. Highly recommend this hotel! Some weights at the gym would have been the cherry on top of the cake :)

I think the check in process was very easy and their locker was free.

Beautiful brand new hotel located in a nice area in Kanazawa. The public bath is the cherry on top

The Square hotel Kanazawa was our favourite hotel in Japan so far. 15 minutes walk from Kanazawa Starion and in a great location for our short stay in Kanazawa (we now wish we had booked longer). We walked everywhere, including to the old Samurai district. 3 single beds, 2 were on a platform so that added a bit of Japanese authenticity (a bit). Lovely staff, public bath had tatto restrictions but that...

The hotel is clean and tidy, and there's a hot spring bath on the top floor. It's located near Omicho Market. I booked early and got a triple room for less than 300 per night, which was excellent value for money. I was very satisfied with my 4-night stay.

Location is good. Easy to assess. Booked for city view but given a closed window request for a change but a carpark view. Just abit disappointed cos booked for a city view for night but not accordingly to the booking given. Overall is ok.

The room was clean and tidy, and the customer service was professional and polite. The facilities were complete, and the lobby had a beautiful lounge area with free coffee. My requests made through Ctrip customer service before check-in were also met. Most importantly, the location is excellent, with many great food options nearby and beautiful scenery. Highly recommended.

Spacious room. Not crowded hotel. Very convenient location. Near 2 metro stations and street shopping. Comfortable bed.

The layout is well-designed, and the room is spacious. Pulling back the curtains was a delightful surprise: a lively yet serene snowfall. I went down to the hotel's lobby for a cup of matcha and enjoyed the beautiful view.

Traveling from Osaka to Kyoto, I stayed at the Cross Hotel for two nights, and overall, it met my expectations. The room was clean, tidy, and had a Japanese-style feel. The hotel lobby was also spacious, bright, and clean. The location was excellent, offering a peaceful retreat despite being in a bustling area; it was surprisingly quiet at night. My only minor complaint was that the room window was...

All great in a good location. Comfortable stay. Perfect. Highly recommended.

the location is very near the subway and the room is clean. it is good

This hotel was perfect for us! The style, cleanliness, facilities, and service were all excellent. We'll definitely come back if we get the chance. The transportation was also super convenient, and we explored many places.

The breakfast included fresh fruit juice and beef, which tasted great.

The room was spacious, but I really disliked the empty, dark, and oppressive decor. While there was plenty of space, all the furniture, including the flooring, felt very basic. There was a lot of room on either side of the bed, yet no bedside tables were provided, making it seem like the furniture wasn't placed to complement the space. The same issue applied to the hot spring changing room, where the...

hotel was amazing! room is spacious & very clean, reception also very friendly. (5/5) location : very qood & convenient, 2mins walk from subway watanabe-dori station. 9mins walk from tenjin (5/5) cost : great for fukuoka & quality of hotel ($120 sgd per night for 2) (5/5) miku & I enjoyed the stay! ありがとうございます!

The hotel is right next to the subway, making it super convenient to get to Tenjin, Canal City, and Hakata Station – just a maximum of 3 stops away. Plus, there's a bus stop across the street with direct service to Fukuoka Tower. The room was quite spacious for Japan, easily accommodating two 28-inch suitcases.

Good location and good buffet breakfast! Front desk staff is superb as well! Room size is small but is clean!

The room was clean, tidy, and quiet, with convenient transport links nearby. The breakfast spread was excellent and the surroundings were beautiful. Next time I'm in Osaka, I'll definitely choose a high-floor room again to enjoy the panoramic city views overlooking Shinsaibashi.

I had such an amazing stay at the Holiday Inn Express Osaka City Centre and would absolutely stay here again when visiting Osaka. From the moment I arrived for check-in until the day I departed, the staff were truly phenomenal. Every interaction was warm, welcoming, and professional, which made the entire experience feel effortless and enjoyable. One small detail that really stood out to me was the...

Why did they give us a room on the 14th floor? For our entire 3-day stay, we were the only Chinese guests, and the room was so small we couldn't even open our luggage. The service wasn't as warm as the Holiday Inn Tokyo. Even though I'm an IHG member, they didn't register my membership when I showed my card, nor did they tell us there was a coffee machine on the 3rd floor. Breakfast on the 2nd floor...

I've stayed at this hotel many times. It's always clean and the breakfast is great.

The room was small but very clean, perfect for one adult and one child. It's close to the subway station and Shinsaibashi is nearby, making it super convenient for shopping. Since it's a special time, the hotel wasn't very busy. We had a late flight, and they kindly offered us a late checkout.

Location is super convenient, less than 5mins walk to the JR station. Love the room as well, it is tiny if you hav a huge luggage, but i love that the room feels brand new, and everything is clean. The view from the window is great, you can see people walking around the station, no blocking by any tall buildings. Window can be opened, which is great, as it make the room feel fresh and cooling. Will...

Very nice, clean hotel. The location is near the station which is awesome.

Highly recommended, clean and modern.

Staff is friendly and place is clean and spacious for solo traveller at such price in Japan. Very value for money. I would comeback again if i am visiting niigata next time. The room has nice view too.

Really good service and location

Very good location! Room is tidy and clean! But the room is a bit hot because there’s no air conditioning! The switches are for heating! The hotel provides free storage of luggages! So good we left our luggages and take a trip to Yahiko village!

The room was spacious and comfortable overall, which was a plus. However, the sofa bed provided for my child was quite short and too firm, making it uncomfortable to sleep on. Additionally, the hotel does not offer self-service laundry facilities. Other than that it’s a great hotel to stay.

A very satisfying stay. 1. The front desk staff were excellent, very quick and professional with the check-in process. 2. The breakfast selection was rich, though at certain times it could get a bit crowded and require a short wait, but this was a minor issue. 3. The room was spacious, clean, and offered great views of Nagoya city. This definitely deserves a big thumbs up. 4. There's a convenience...

Very good and luxurious the hotel is also very convenient for the location

Clean and modern hotel in a convenient location. There is a Donki store opposite the hotel. The bed is a little too soft.

Room was spacious. However daily make up room service need improved as trash and used cup was not clean and disposed. Overall good.

Nice stay with courtyard Nagoya. Will stay against in next trip

The hotel's location is great, about a five-minute walk to the station. The room size was very satisfactory, and the bathroom had a clear dry/wet separation and was spacious and easy to use.

This hotel is super convenient, just a short walk from the West Exit of Kanazawa Station, right next to the Hyatt. Compared to other Daiwa hotels, the decor here is much more refined, and the room was quite spacious. Really impressed!

Hotel Location: Strategically situated just a short walk from JR Kanazawa station, the hotel is easily accessible via the nearby shopping mall. It’s conveniently located next to Hyatt Centric, and a short stroll takes you to Omicho Market for fresh seafood. Facilities: The hotel boasts a public bath, a welcome addition during the cold winter months. Additional amenities, including coffee drip bags...

Room is spacious and very nicely decorated. There’s tv console with vanity corner, with plenty of table top space which is typically lacking in compact hotel rooms. Bathroom is spacious with separated toilet, bathroom and sink area.

An excellent hotel rather near the Kanazawa Train Station. There are also some good Japanese restaurants opposite the hotel. The room is spacious, contemporary with Japanese flavour. The facilities and amenities are comprehensive like body lotion, shampoo, comb, Onsen towel scrub, and tooth brush. The Onsen is rather small but sufficient as the turnover rate is pretty high since there is not much...

The staff were very friendly, they can speak English, and the location is close to Kanazawa Station. The room was clean, but the carpet tended to collect quite a bit of dust.

To be honest, when I first checked in, I thought the room was really small. A 25 sq. meter twin room couldn't even fit a 28-inch suitcase laid flat, and at 1800 a night including breakfast, it really didn't feel worth it! However, I was genuinely surprised by the breakfast — the taste and texture truly captured the exquisite essence of Japanese cuisine! The rooftop onsen (hot spring) was also a big...

The hot spring is good! Highly recommended!

A 7-minute walk from the subway station, the hotel breakfast is really good, and you can enjoy the hot spring on the rooftop. I always choose Mitsui hotels whenever I go to Japan. The only downside is that the rooms are still a bit small.

Great location with plenty of cafes and restaurants nearby. Easy walk to Hakata Station, making travel convenient. The staff were friendly and polite, enhancing the overall experience.

The room was just okay. The bathroom had a pretty strong odor, and I had to specifically ask for toiletries at the front desk. The bathhouse was closed from 9 AM to 3 PM, and you need to bring your own towel. I wasn't told at check-in that the room key wouldn't work for the hotel's bathhouse. Overall, not great value for money.

The location is super convenient! It's within walking distance of Gion Station on the Airport Line, Kushida Shrine Station on the Nanakuma Subway Line, Hakata Station, as well as Canal City Hakata, Kushida Shrine, and Nakasu Kawabata street. The breakfast spread is generous, primarily Japanese-style, and even features the famous Ikkousha ramen from Hakata. The rooms are quiet and spotlessly clean...

The hotel was exceptionally clean and hygienic. The front desk staff were very responsible and the environment was spotless. Our room was impeccably cleaned, with no unpleasant odors, making our stay very reassuring. The front desk team was professional and responsive, ensuring a great check-in experience.

room size considering big in Japan. Able to see Fiji mountain when weather is good. I like their convenient location. Direct transportation to both airports in Tokyo. Breakfast is super ! Definitely will go back to this hotel again.

The location is good but the room was dusty. The staff were also helpful but the amenities were limited than advertised.

Great stay at this hotel. It was actually much better than we expected based on the photos and reviews. We loved the cleanliness, convenient location, and the fact that there was enough space for three people. We would definitely stay here again.

The hotel is super convenient, just a two or three-minute walk from the JR Shinnan exit. It's really easy to get to Tokyo Station, Shibuya, Shinjuku, and even Yokohama from here. If you need to take the Tokyu Line or Nambu Line, it's a bit of a walk though. There are lots of shops and restaurants around the hotel, so it's very handy for shopping and dining. The breakfast was delicious with a great...

Strategically located in the city centre- major shopping malls and restaurants (like Sushiro and McD) are within short walking distance. Room is considered spacious by Japanese standards. Multi storey parking so expect to spend a bit of time and it costs 1,500 Yen per night

Room is spacious, convenient location, within walking distance to 大丸 and 三越。I enjoy my stay

The room was a bit small, but the bed was super comfy – I pretty much slept like a log every night. They also have a hot spring, and the breakfast was really good with lots of options. Location-wise, it's very convenient, just a 3-minute walk from Exit 22. Plus, it's really close to Odori Park.

The hotel staff were so welcoming and friendly, and the guy at the front desk was really handsome! The breakfast was delicious too, especially the Hokkaido potatoes 😋

I stayed at this hotel for four nights during the Christmas holidays. The hotel is about a 10-minute walk from JR Sapporo Station, and there's an airport limousine bus that drops you off right at the entrance, which takes about 80 minutes to 2 hours. For breakfast, you can choose between Western and Japanese options. The hotel also has an onsen (hot spring), and you can check the crowdedness level...

It's about a 700-meter walk from JR to the hotel. Coming back every day to soak in the hot spring was incredibly comfortable. The surrounding area is quite quiet and not very lively. Initially, I booked for two nights, but then extended for an additional night. The breakfast was plentiful, especially for us as we mainly focused on eggs, vegetables, fruits, and coffee. The hotel staff was very warm...

Between the JR Nikko Hotel and this one, the room size was the deciding factor in the end 🤭. We chose the South Tower, which is also relatively new, and the room was incredibly spacious – enough to open a large suitcase. It was also very clean. They have self-service laundry and a bathtub. It's about a 10-minute walk from Sapporo Station. A taxi ride costs around 1000 JPY, so it's convenient to grab...
