Comfort Hotel Tokyo Kiyosumi Shirakawa

As in Japan the room is very small. This room doesn't even have a closet. It has a towel bar with four hangers. The room however is very clean and the staff is very helpful. I like that breakfast is included. It is not the type of breakfast you expect in the US, but there is sufficient variety to have a decent breakfast. The breakfast varies a little bit daily. Small breakfast sausages, scrambled eggs in the form of curds, yogurt, bread, raisin bun, cereals, rice, soup, are always available. In addition, you may get a bun filled with custard and other proteins such as meat balls or chicken. Another plus is that the metro train station is literally steps away and you could get to any of the tourist areas using the trains with transfers of course.

absolutely LOVE the location. after a full day of walking around tokyo, there's nothing like remembering that your hotel is *right* beside the train station. unbeatable. apart from that, it's across the kiyosumi park, a 10-minute walk away from the modern art museum, and is well-situated close to great izakayas, restaurants, and cafes. can't beat it! it was appropriately local (it had a lot of local flavor, and not too many tourists in the area!) but still connects you to the rest of tokyo. really has everything that you need for the price. i stayed around march (transition between spring/winter) so the AC is set to warm: that's really great, too.

The breakfast was very good -nice variety, plenty of fruits & vegetables, good pastry/bread and beverage selection. It was tasty, easy, fast and good start to our day. We also liked that toiletries and pyjamas are provided...makes packing easier and lighter suitcases. Having the Subway station next to the hotel was super convenient and a definite highlight. The shops, restaurants, pharmacy and grocer within steps of the hotel are also pluses. We also explored the parks, shrine/temples and museum that were also within walking distance. This is our second stay at this hotel. Our first room was in better condition than this recent stay, because this room is more rundown and needs more repairs. The rooms are comfortable but are very basic/standard and lacks character. The elevators were slow. Other features we liked are the laundry machines, the maps and travel information, library with books/games/beverages/plugs/tables/chairs, the food vending machines and the complimentary suitcases storage. There BEST part of both of our stays are the staff. From the front desk, breakfast/kitchen, and cleaning staff, everyone was super friendly and helpful, always acknowledged and greeted us with smiles, and always went above and beyond to make our stay better. 🙏🏻 Thank-you and we look forward to returning soon. 🥰

The hotel is located in a lesser known district on the eastern side of the Sumida river. However, in terms of location for getting about, it couldn't be better. Literally right next door to Kiyosumi-Shirakawa Metro station. Also right next door, on the other side of reception, is a conbini. The hotel was clean and the room wasn't overly small for Tokyo. There was also a daily room cleaning service. There is a baggage storage area in reception, with some parts having lockable cables.

There was a good choice of breakfast with European and Japanese dishes and coffee was always available from the little bookshop cafe which was a nice place to sit after walking round the city. The hotel provided sleepwear (as many Japanese hotels do) and there were umbrellas by the door to use when it rained, which was very useful for us. The hotel is conveniently situated next to the subway station.
