If you're going from Tokyo Station to Tachikawa Station, definitely take the fastest train; it gets you there in 40 minutes. Otherwise, with more stops, even a rapid train can take an hour. Once you exit Tachikawa Station North Exit, head towards Showa Kinen Park. Navigation will lead you to a parking lot entrance, which is correct. Turn right there, and you'll find an elevator to the lobby. Alternatively, walk to the 7-Eleven, take the escalator up, and turn left, and you're in the lobby. The hotel is on the second floor and isn't very conspicuous. The hotel service is excellent, and the rooms are spacious with a great design. Facing Showa Kinen Park, they even have a terrace. You definitely wouldn't find this size, quality, and price in Tokyo. The hotel is located in a commercial area with plenty of dining options. Afuri is on the first floor and has no queue. If you walk to Tachikawa Takashimaya, there are also many high-end brands and dining choices. There's a lounge offering simple drinks and beverages. Breakfast is a set menu, with both Western and Japanese options; I chose the Japanese, which was decent. The rooms at this hotel are very comfortable, clean, and odor-free. The only downside is the soundproofing of the windows, which is just average; you can hear cars speeding on the highway below and performances from the park. Also, the hotel promotes environmental protection, so they don't provide toothbrushes, shower caps, or skincare products – it's not that they're available elsewhere if needed, but rather they aren't provided at all. However, it's very pet-friendly.
