Chuo Ward Holidays

Located just right outside Universal City Station and Universal Studios Japan itself, this is one of the best hotels you can stay at if you're planning for a trip down to USJ. It can be on the pricier side, but if you treasure your sleep and want to be right outside the gate just as it opens, this is your definite go-to for lodging. Also helps that your bed is just a 5-10 min walk away from the gates after a long day of queuing and walking (and of course playing) at USJ! Our feet and back were aching, and it was a relief we could rest up without travelling via train again. It was also a nice touch to have breakfast the next morning waiting for us downstairs. Amenities are great, you've got your usual heated toilet seat with bidet, good hot shower and tub, aircon and all. Pillows could be better, but all the staff there were great. Breakfast was good too. It was a continental breakfast with some japanese dishes. Free flow drinks and ice cream. There was a kids section at the buffet that had all kids would ever want, fries, spaghetti bolognese and some other fried stuff (no veggies HAHA) and these tables were thoughtfully lowered, so that they could help themselves to them. A very nice touch. All in all, will be back again for our next USJ trip when the Donkey Kong land opens

Excellent hotel, premium double room was large, lots of room to put suitcases. Restaurant ok, buffet had many varieties but overall the American portion was not tasty and overpriced in my opinion. No coin laundry knocked the rating down. Tried to have my laundry done by the hotel on March 20 but was told it was a Japanese holiday and laundry would not be ready until the day I left. Had to walk to coin laundry about 10 minutes away to get laundry done. Oh well, saved lots of money doing it that way. Overall, hotel was nice and staff was great, Housekeeping was awesome and I would probably stay there again since it is close to rail and shopping.

Great hotel. Very luxurious.

It' very convenient location lots of food options, toiletries in the hotel restock and in the room everyday. Very near train station.

Brand new hotel met expectations. Close enough to shops, Dotonboro, and other sites while still being away and quiet. The breakfast buffet is a must-try. Only negative of the stay was coming to our room and there being hair still in the bathroom floor. Extra attention needed in cleaning.
