ALFIT HOTEL & BAR AKASAKA

Location in particular exceeded our expectations -- close to many metro lines making most parts of Tokyo well connected. Despite not being commonly recommended for access to public transport, we noticed that it was actually very easy to reach most attractions / areas / stations compared to other areas we considered staying. Staff was great, with service almost on par with 5 star hotels we stayed at in Japan. The room we had was spacious enough, especially for Tokyo standards.

Good price for a very clean and really well located hotel close to three metro stations on different JR lines (we had a busy schedule each day). The area felt very safe even late at night, not touristy at all, and rooms were quiet. Pleased to discover there were plenty of nice restaurants and bars between the hotel and Akasaka-Mitsuke Station, full of locals rather than tourists. Convenience stores were very close by as well. Beds were comfortable and the pajamas were a nice touch. The hotel staff were really friendly and professional. They were responsive handling questions before we arrived. During our stay they helped with arranging the suitcase delivery to our Kyoto hotel, and booked a taxi for us so that we could go to the Toyosu market tuna auction one morning before the metro lines started running. Breakfast was served in the lobby/bar area downstairs and the menu was simple but well done: pancakes, ham, sausages cooked to order; plus a small continental selection; good coffee with fresh milk; prosecco was a bonus! We didn't use the bar in the evening but the prices seemed reasonable.

The location is so prime. it is very central and you can get to all the best places in Tokyo in under 35 mins by train. The location is probably the best part about the hotel honestly. Akasaka is an awesome area plenty to eat and drink but not chaotic like Shinjuku/shibuya. Staff is efficient and most spoke English. Free waters and coffee/tea every day. There is a bar lounge area in the lobby for guests.

I really enjoyed the location of the hotel. It wasn't in a super touristy area and very close by, actually on the way to the metro, there was a lively nigt life street that I enjoyed walking through every night. There was also a beautiful shrine within walking distance. It was fairly easy to get to any part of tokyo from here. The room was nice and spacious. Bath and toilet were separated which made the bathroom also a bit more spacious. My only issue was that the roof of the bath was very low due to the raise the bath tub gives. (I am just over 6ft 185cm) I had trouble showering and standing, BUT luckily it was a tub so I could just sit there as well. Which ended up being a better option every night after a long day of walking. I was able to connect my netflix straight from my mobile app to the tv when i wanted to relax at night.

A great welcome, location and the room looks really nice. Everything super clean. But the toilet must be the best thing 😁
