Moxy Tokyo Kinshicho

Good location, friendly staff, great service. I will be back in next trip

The hotel itself is just a cool, modern, lively spot just outside of Tokyo. The amenities were all there, the bathroom is a comfortable standard for Japan size. The cleaning, although daily and prompt, wasn’t the best - there still was some hairs on the floor when we moved in, some cotton tips behind the toilet. The area itself (we didn’t do enough research and didn’t know) is actually a bit of a red light district, so the hotel itself poses as a sort of ‘love hotel’, except you are seeing it becoming a tourist favourite, and there’s families who stay there too. Though a bit contrasting, considering there’s a basket of condoms on the way into the elevators, lol. The bar downstairs is cool, lots of drink choices, staff are very welcoming. If you are a solo female traveler especially, I wouldn’t recommend staying here, only because if you are making a late evening trip back to the hotel and catch public transport (the station is super close by), you end up walking through the seedy streets where men will eye you up and down, maybe even try and invite you in. As safe as Japan is as a country, it does create a very unsettling atmosphere around the hotel. The bathroom shower has a frothed glass looking out into the bedroom, so unless you’re with a partner and not, say, your mum or sister, I wouldn’t recommend it.
