Hotel Springs Makuhari Premier

I booked this hotel near the exhibition hall in advance. The hotel has two wings, and you'll see a sign when you come from the subway station. I booked the Premier room. The front desk is right by the restaurant on the first floor of the lobby. Check-in was efficient, and the service attitude was excellent. The hotel's decor is a bit old, but it's very well-maintained. The room size is quite large for this price range, and it's fully equipped. When you open the curtains, the view is pretty good. The hotel's location is fantastic, directly opposite the JR station, with plenty of restaurants and supermarkets nearby. There's even an outlet mall here [smiley face][smiley face][smiley face]. It's a 10-minute walk to the exhibition hall. A subway ride to central Tokyo only takes about 40 minutes. The hotel breakfast offers good choices, and the taste is also great. Premier guests can also enjoy the all-day restaurant with coffee and afternoon tea.

This is a very old-fashioned hotel, consisting of two buildings. The rooms are quite spacious, but due to a renovation, the layout is a bit odd. The sink is inside the room, and there's a mirror directly opposite the bed – clearly, feng shui isn't a priority in Japan. The location is excellent, right outside Kaihinmakuhari Station on the Keiyo Line. It's only about 200m walk to the nearby outlet mall, and there are plenty of dining options around. Overall, I'm satisfied.

Although the hotel isn't in the city center, there are direct shuttle buses from both Haneda and Narita airports. It's just across the road from Kaihin-Makuhari Station, and right next to Mitsui Outlet Park, with plenty of dining options nearby, making it very convenient. The rooms have been newly renovated and are quite spacious, with separate bathtubs and showers. The twin beds, however, cannot be pushed together. Our room on the 4th floor overlooked a small chapel in the inner courtyard, offering a beautiful environment. The executive lounge on the first floor serves breakfast, which, while not particularly lavish, is all delicious. After 9 PM, you need to check in at the main building. The airport shuttle also stops at the main building's entrance. You can ask the front desk to store your luggage in the main building, so you don't have to go back for it. Overall, the Ctrip voucher for just over 600 was incredibly good value for money. If it's available again, I would definitely stay here next time!

This is a great hotel! The location is super convenient, with plenty of dining and shopping options nearby. It's just a 5-minute walk to the JR station, making it easy to get to major shopping centers, the airport, and more.
