Mikata Picture Book House in the Astronomical Observatory Forest Tours and Activities

This property had us happy from start to finish for all 9 days we stayed. The location is SO awesome with a train station just steps away, a konbini IN house and a grocery store with pharmacy just around the corner. The breakfast buffet is wonderful and clean with lots of options for all kinds of tastes. The staff is helpful and kind and most are multilingual (english). The rooms were decently sized even when we had 4 people in the room. The bathroom was perfect with the tub and shower split from the toilet area. Room under the beds to store luggage. I will absolutely want to stay here again when i come back to Tokyo. It is just a few stops from TD and TDS and just a few stops the other direction to Tokyo station for transfers. The bath house is tattoo friendly and wonderful to have at the end of the day when you walk 20k steps or more. Thank you to everyone there for making our stay so awesome!

This place provided way more than I ever expected to receive from a hotel. From the moment we arrived the strive for 5 star service was evident. And they achieved it during our entire stay. The staff was always more than accommodating. The onsite dining options were some of the best meals we had in Japan. The garden was stunning and full of history. It was an amazing experience overall. Our sincerest thanks to the entire staff of this establishment, and a special thanks to Murakami San for his consistent personal efforts and time spent with us. This was a very special trip. We will certainly stay here again when we return.
