    specific location
    check-in process
    bed arrangement

    Location, Toilet brightness, Mikimoto bath products

    The odd check-in procedure wasted time and caused unnecessary frustration!!! Also, the large king bed was just two double beds pushed together—definitely not ideal for couples seeking closeness!!!

    fresh pasta
    cleanliness ambiance
    dirty sheets
    limited english

    The fresh pasta from Italian Dining Vicolo was a culinary delight, and breakfast at the hotel offered a fantastic variety of Asian dishes. Plus, the overall cleanliness and stylish ambiance of the hotel made the stay feel extra special!

    While I found unidentified black spots on the sheets a bit of a bummer, the service shined through—especially the daytime staff who were pretty great at communicating in English, although the night staff could use a little help.

    high quality buffet

    Great for families looking for a solid stay

    The breakfast buffet was fantastic and really high quality. I remember sitting there, savoring the variety, and thinking how it was one of the best meals we had on this trip. Plus, there was a market downstairs that was just very nice, we got snacks for our late-night munchies.

    The price was a bit steep but still manageable.

    delicious breakfast
    free drinks
    serene garden
    confusing shower setup

    The breakfast was a delightful mix of Japanese and Western dishes, and I loved grabbing free drinks in the lounge from 1-9 PM after a long day! The serene garden and cozy seating areas offered great spots to unwind. Just a heads-up, the shower setup was a bit tricky to navigate at first, but it didn’t ruin my stay. 😊

    great location
    cozy room
    convenient supermarket

    we had a wonderful stay at richmond. the hotel is in a great location, close to everything we wanted to see. our standard double room was cozy enough for us, even if a little small. the supermarket downstairs was a lifesaver with its fresh bakery and ready-to-eat options, which made our mornings super easy.

    strongly recommend

    bright hotel

    comfortable bed
    communication barrier
    staff language barrier

    The hotel is so bright and clean. I loved the reception and waiting area. The free drinks and snacks service at the lounge from 1 PM to 9 PM was fantastic for unwinding after a long day! Plus, the rooms were extremely clean and well-equipped, including a comfortable bed and bathtub.

    Communication with the staff could be tricky at times.

    cramped room
    repetitive snacks

    The hotel features modern decor and a stylish lobby with a calming garden and pond view, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The breakfast offers an appealing selection of homestyle Japanese dishes, perfect for starting a busy day. However, communication for room servicing was challenging at times due to staff language barriers, and room space could feel cramped for families. Also, while the afternoon and evening snacks were generous, they became repetitive after several days.

    A Memorable Stay with Unique Experiences

    Our week-long stay was enhanced by a fantastic variety of Asian breakfasts and the bustling market downstairs that provided convenient late-night snacks. The combination of excellent bathroom products and a unique soaking bath experience brought a taste of Japan right into our room. Future guests should consider bringing teabags, as they weren't provided.

    great location
    comfortable lounge
    disorganized check-in
    limited storage
    communication challenges

    The location was a highlight, with a supermarket right downstairs for added convenience and a serene atmosphere despite being close to downtown. The lounge provided complimentary snacks and beverages, perfect for unwinding in the evening. However, the check-in process felt a bit disorganized, and there was limited clothing storage in the room. Additionally, while the staff was friendly, communication could be challenging during peak hours.
