Hotel Route-Inn Tokyo Ikebukuro

The staff was very friendly and helpful, the place was clean and breakfast was great. The selection wasn't crazy, but those are enough for a quick breakfast before going out on adventure nearby. Quite close to sunshine city as well!

The staffs are so friendly and accomodating. The explanation, amneities and the free breakfast is one of the best service of the hotel. Recommended and will book again when I'm returning to japan

Very nice staff and the breakfast is good (Japanese style breakfast). The room is clean.

Good location near 66 shopping street and near train station near time car-rental shop I love this place (fine breakfast )

A small but comfortable and complete hotel. The front desk is very friendly and helpful even though it doesn't seem to be fluent in English. Complete facilities, ranging from vending machines, ice machines, microwaves, laundromat, to free wifi are all available. Small rooms typical of hotels in Tokyo. The mattress and pillows are a bit hard and for some people it might be uncomfortable, but I personally like this kind of thing, hehe. Room cleaned every day. Breakfast is buffet and the choices are many! The location is not too close to the station, but within walking distance to shops frequented by anime lovers (K-books, Mandarake, Lashinban, Animate). Very close to Tokyu Hands. Because it is located near the hospital, sometimes the sound of an ambulance, but not too disturbing. Overall I really like this hotel, highly recommended especially the price is not expensive. Next time I will settle in this hotel again.

I have stayed in this hotel many times, since before they changed their name on 2016, and they never fail to give me a pleasant stay. Really friendly staff who understand english, no hassle check in and check out, adequate room (water temperature & pressure also air conditioning never fails in winter and summer), mattress a bit hard and pillow a bit lumpy though (it's never a problem for me because I always have a good rest). They'll ask you to leave your room key when you get out and take it from the staff when you come back but since I often worry of losing keys this is also not a problem. And it's in Ikebukuro! You can find almost anything you want (convenience store, malls, nearby aquarium, even a tiny park that became super beautiful when the sakura blooms just right behind the hotel), go easily to any destination, and if you love limousine bus to the airport like I do, their stop is just 5 minutes away. Oh also! I love their breakfast buffet. It's really good to have warm miso soup and tamagoyaki every morning, and they also label the ingredients they use.

Very near Ikebukuro Station and it was on really happening street just across the road.

Stay away from the station a bit. But around the food and the lot.

Clean hotel fair food Is a buffet The location is quite far from the train.

This hotel is in Sunshine city (big game center and shopping mall) but you have to walk 10 mins. to reach hotel but I love this location!
