Hotels near Mikata Picture Book House in the Astronomical Observatory Forest

"The dinning options saved the experience, but the bathrooms were a dirty deathtrap for my elderly mom."

"Not worth the $. Too loud."

"Stanford decently friendly, though clearly overwhelmed by the crowds. Make sure you leave time for check in, because the entire lobby fills. The rooms were a bit worn and dated. The TVs were old and had only a few channel options and no streaming apps. Bathrooms were decent, though the toilet paper is so thin you can see through it and seems ridiculous for an expensive hotel like Gracery. The Godzilla balcony was also closed, so their one big attraction was inaccessible. Overall, I would spend similar money for a better experience elsewhere."

"Highly recommended perfect place to stay"

"3 of us stayed in the Quad room Very close the train station, grocery stores, restaurants, 7-11 and Lawsons and other shopping ie: Uniqlo and Muji. Karaoke next door downstairs. They call it “traveller’s apartment’ therefore like an Airbnb. Front staff isn’t always there but can be contacted via iPad on the front desk. Will NOT be enough space for 5 people. Tops 4 people would be comfortable. Laundry is handy to have. No drying feature but the tub/shower area has a heat/drying option to dry clothes by hanging. Detergent provided. Sometimes sewage backup smell would permeate the unit after a rainy day/night. Use the air purifier in the closet to help with the smell. Fire alarm went off twice during our stay. Once at 9pm and other at 11pm. Although not Karin’s fault, it was very annoying. Friendly staff with some English. Use Google Translate if necessary. No drawers so we lived off our packing cubes. Remember to take off your shoes in the ‘genkan’ especially when you check in. Most info in Japanese so it’s important to know what they mean via the manual provided in the room. It would be nice if they put a copy of the translation pasted to the wall for each appliance/machine. Kitchen used and sufficient for the stay. People who complained about no chopsticks in the unit, grocery stores will supply if you ask. "

"Quiet, super comfortable beds and a clean neighborhood away from the more busy areas of Tokyo. Still, not far by train to anywhere. A little inconvenient from the airports though."

"嘗ての普通のベッドが良い。 布団のような、和室の様な設計は高齢者には向かない。 あのタイプの部屋は二度と泊まりたくない。"

"Great place to stay in Tachikawa! My second stay here. It’s about a 10-minute walk from the station. There are multiple combinis nearby. The staff were nice and the property was clean. Easy check-in/check-out. I’ll definitely stay here again in the future."

"There were shops and restaurants nearby. There were 2 train stations within walking distance. The room was very clean with aircon. The mattresses were very comfortable. Free coffee machine, snacks and free coffee/tea provided in the room. I would recommend this hotel to anyone."
