3 star Hotels in Ikebukuro

Awesome location, hotel itself is located in a big shopping centre, near Tokyu hands, in less than 5 min walk to main roads of ikebukuro, around 10 min to ikebukuro station, there is limousine bus stop just outside of hotel. There's LAN cable for free access to internet (not that quick). Rooms are small (but like most accommodation in Tokyo). Housekeeping workers do not speak English, which may lead to some miscommunications here and there.

We recently stayed at the Hotel Metropolitan for two weeks in a small double room. I was a bit hesitant about the room before arriving at the hotel due to concerns over the size of the room and decor and facilities. Upon arriving I was pleasantly surprised. The room was located on the 15th floor with a pretty good view over the city, and on the day we arrived we were lucky enough to see Mt Fuji in the distance. The room itself had a double bed, a bedside table, a separate small table and chair, a fridge in the room which is empty and available for your own personal use, a lcd tv, a bathroom with a bath and a very good shower. The room is pretty compact and there is no real space to unpack your things, but from my perspective the room was very clean, fairly smartly decorated and met our needs very well, given the price. There is no chest of drawers for you to use, just a side table next to the bed with a few drawers and a small area with a few hangers by the door. That being said, for the price (combined flight and accomodation) it was very good value for money. Had we booked them separately it would have cost a lot more. We didn't eat in the hotel as there are so many places to eat outside of the hotel but there is a nice patisserie in the hotel which we used quite a bit. The hotel is also right by Ikebukuro station with good links on the JR and underground to most places in Tokyo. From/To Narita airport it couldn't be easier. The Limousine bus stops directly at the hotel.

Location was 5 mins walk from Ikebukuro Station. Hotel room size was comfortable relative to other hotels in Tokyo. Great shower facilities and water pressure was excellent. Daily breakfast was included. It was buffet style, selection was not extensive. It would have been better if the selections vary from day to day. However, there are plentiful of food choices in the vicinity of hotel, round the clock. And the convenience store is just across the street. Overall great stay!

Pleasant experience. Good breakfast. Highly recommended.

I go to Japan (Tokyo in particular) at least once every year. I'm not a big fan of staying in the busy areas of the city due to noise etc. Hotel Bellclassic happens to be in one of my most favorite areas to stay. It's quiet but not too out-of-the-way. It's a 1-2 minute walk from the JR Otsuka train station and about 5-10 minutes from Shin-Otsuka station, which gives you a couple of commute options. It's about an average of 30 minutes' train ride to most of the major tourist areas (if that's your thing). There is a convenience store right across the street, which is convenient (no pun intended). The JR station is also a kind of mini-mall. The hotel itself is bright and clean and pleasant. I stayed in a single room with a double bed, mini fridge, writing table, side table, desk chair and little sofa chair. It's a little small, like most hotel rooms in Japan, but enough room for a couple of small suitcases. I like that the bottled water in the fridge is free (replaced every day) and the amenities that are are full-sized so you actually have enough soap/shampoo to shower with. No wifi, but they provide an ethernet cable, which I used with my Airport Express with no problems. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I speak Japanese, so I can't tell you how well they communicate in English. All in all, a good experience. I have no complaints. One thing that may be of concern for some is that you can hear people in the hallway quite clearly. But it was mainly a very quiet hotel.

This hotel was a great value. The rooms are small, but there are non-smoking floors, which is a plus. It's about a 10-15 minute walk from the Ikebukuro train station. The staff understood and spoke some English and were very helpful and nice. They were happy to store our luggage when we had to check out, but had a late flight.

I needed a budget hotel in Ikebukuro (west side) and couldn't be happier with choosing Star Plaza. The staff were great, the room was simple but clean and exactly what I wanted. The breakfasts were a nice bonus. Thanks to all st the Star Plaza!!
