The hotel staff were very accommodating and friendly. Our room was tiny for 3 people with 3 large suitcases but to be fair we did not stay for the day anyway and the best part was the room was cleaned everyday so it’s nice to come back to the room smelling fresh. Also, they gave us bottled water to drink. The hotel is convenient to tourists like us as there are bus stops and train stations that are walkable. Coffee shops and restaurants are around the hotel too. Will definitely recommend Hotel Kuretakeso.

Do not stay
This hotel is not worth staying at. I was there 10 days and my sheets were not changed. They refused to call a cab. My room looked at a wall. Breakfast is skippable. There is no security, anyone can access guest floors. Elevators are insufficient for the size so you wait many minutes.

This was a very clean hotel in a nice neighborhood. We enjoyed all the shopping options around the hotel. There were plenty of small shops and really nice restaurants within walking distance of the hotel. We were well taken care of here and appreciated all of the staff. It was a really pleasant stay.
