Excellent for early morning flights! Super convenient! The subway takes you directly to Haneda Airport T3. Go up to the 2nd floor for arrivals, then to the 4th floor for self-check-in at the hotel's machines! There are complimentary skincare products available in the elevator lobby. The room isn't small. You can browse shops before security, though most restaurants close at 10 PM. There's a 24-hour convenience store. Don Quijote is on the 5th floor; it's smaller than the city ones but still nice to have, and it closes at 11 PM.

For an 8:55 AM ANA flight, the food shops open at 6:30 AM, so you can grab common foods – plenty of time.

Fantastic, definitely a four-star hotel. The lobby feels like a five-star, and the rooms are very new and spacious. The bathtub was super comfortable, I used it every night. The only downside is it's a bit far from the city center, but I would still choose to stay here again on my next trip to Tokyo. The value for money exceeded my expectations!

I stayed at Hotel Villa Fontaine Grand Tokyo Shiodome and had a pleasant experience overall.

The hotel is conveniently located within the Shiodome complex, making it easy to access public transportation and nearby attractions. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide variety of delicious Japanese and Western options. I also noticed that many international guests, especially Americans, were staying here, which gave the hotel a lively and welcoming atmosphere.

On the downside, the staff were just average not unfriendly, but not particularly warm or attentive either. The room was also smaller than it appeared in the photos, and the bathroom was very compact, with just enough space to move around comfortably. I expected a little more based on the pictures, but I understand that compact rooms are quite common in Tokyo.

One thing that could definitely be improved is the smoking area. The smoking cubicle only accommodates two people at a time. Since many guests including myself were smokers, there was often a queue during peak hours, which was quite inconvenient.

Overall, it’s a good hotel with a fantastic location and excellent breakfast. Just keep your expectations realistic regarding room size, and be prepared for the limited smoking facilities if you’re a smoker.

This is a continuation of my previous review. I had to book an extra night because I'd initially booked one day less. The hotel was able to merge both bookings when I checked in. Also, some guides mentioned that additional fees might be charged during check-in, but that wasn't the case. I only paid the amount shown on Trip.com, and didn't have to pay anything else upon arrival at the hotel.

The location is very convenient. Although it's a few minutes' walk, there are many subway stations nearby, so it's not tiring even with luggage. The front desk is great and offers luggage storage. The hotel is clean, quite spacious, and offers excellent value for money. They even provided samples of Sekkisei, which I'm now interested in buying!

Feeling pretty good! The room was clean and tidy, with all the essential amenities. The location is excellent, making it very convenient for getting around and sightseeing. The front desk staff were warm and attentive, and check-in was quick. Parking was also easy. There are plenty of dining options nearby. Overall, a great stay, and I'd choose this place again for my next trip.

The hotel is located on a quiet little street. A 7-Eleven is just a 2-minute walk away, and there are plenty of cafés nearby. Three different metro stations are within walking distance. The room is small but very cozy — clean, pleasantly scented, and equipped with a super comfortable bed. At the lobby, they offer all the necessary toiletries and free coffee. There's also a laundry room and even a smoking area. I highly recommend it.

I arrived quite late due to a night flight, but the front desk staff was still available to check me in. The night view was absolutely stunning; the garden on the 14th floor, combined with the misty rain, made for incredibly picturesque photos (I'm terrible at photography, so I couldn't do it justice!). The front desk provided a full array of toiletries and towels, and the bed was very comfortable, though the room was a bit small. I thought all restaurants in the Minato area would be closed after midnight, but I found a small eatery just a 10-minute walk away. The food was delicious and quite affordable!

The hotel isn't on a main road, so it's relatively quiet. It's an acceptable walk to Tokyo Station, and there are a few other hotels nearby. The room was very clean, and the 1.8-meter bed felt spacious enough. They provided Sekkisei skincare and cleansing products, which was a nice touch for anyone who forgot their makeup remover.

However, the room size is genuinely small. There's no chair, and the desk is a folding one. What was really inconvenient was the lack of bedside tables or any extra storage space. We had two bags, and one had to stay on the floor, making overall storage difficult.

Additionally, the front desk staff were quite indifferent, making the check-in experience less than ideal. If you're only staying for one night, don't have much luggage, and don't expect much in terms of service, it's manageable.

Good value hotel. Closest to main spots in Tokyo just 30 mins by train whereas other hotels were at least 1 hr to Shibuya.

Breakfast is just ok. The food is mostly the same except 1 main dish that changes but comes back for the week lol.
They need ro make sure the hot food always remains hot  I ate some fried chicken that was frozen hard. 

Would recommend to eat breakfast outside if you are a foodie and don't need to eat by specific time in the morning because of medications.

Relatively new hotel in Umeda so condition still fine. The location is good because the whole Osaka Umeda station area is well connected, but the underground paths can be confusing because it is massive and you can get lost if you don't have a good sense of direction. In general, you can get to the hotel via Whity underground mall from JR or Hankyu station, look for Whity mall map online to have a better understanding of which exit to take (go to Whity East mall). Plenty of food options both above ground and underground.
Booked the superior double room which has an excellent open square layout instead of the typical hallway layout, so you have room to open your luggage case on the floor. 
The buffet breakfast was excellent, you can order either grilled salmon or mackerel, with plenty of other dishes. The matcha pudding was so good. The Japanese aunties working at the restaurant were so friendly. 
The public bath (not hot spring water, just hot water) was nice but I felt the water temperature was too high compared to the other baths I went to in Japan. The hot stone area was interesting but also too hot for me 😅

nice location which just within 8mins walking distance can get sannomiya transportation , it is very easy to get direct bus to kansai airport or Kobe airport 
The hotel surrounding got 7-11 and cafe/restaurant within walking distance can get it 
Besides the hotel got welcome drink, and everyday 5pm-8pm got free alcohol drinks section
Suggest for those need a place easy to get transportation
