Smile Hotel Tokyo Tamanagayama Reviews

離車站很近，出行吃飯都很方便

My sister and I made a trip to Tokyo to visit my son and his family who live in the Tama area. The Smile Hotel was the closest (1 train station away from Tama Center station) place to stay and it was so easy to commute via the public transit system. Na***ama station is about a 5-6 min easy walk from the hotel. There is a path option for those who find stairs difficult. The station has a complete shopping center. The hotel itself is set up for business travelers and has a wonderful Family Mart on site (open 8-8). We purchased excellent coffee and breakfast sandwiches each day in addition to treats. The food options were hot or cold and superior to any convenience stores in the US. They also carry items such as asprin, cough drops, lotions, etc. We were able to get a corner room on the top (7th) floor with 2 comfortable beds, which I would say are 3/4 size (between a twin and double). The room was larger than I anticipated, had a wall of windows to give views of the city lights at night and above beautiful trees that made us feel like we were in a tree house. An elementary school was across the path leading to the train station and we enjoyed watching and listening to the children when they were outside. The beds were comfy but the buckwheat pillows were not our favorite. There was a step up to get into the bathroom but the fancy toilet and the deep Japanese style bathtub were a bonus. At 71 and 77 we were still able to navigate the step up into the bathroom and the step over the tub in order to take a shower but it could be a challenge for some folks. The shower was powerful with plenty of hot water, rare in a large hotel. The Liquid soap, very nice shampoo and conditioner are provided in pump bottles. We chose to not have our room cleaned every day but each morning a bag of clean towels appeared on our door. The room we were in was very quiet and had a fan as well as AC. As for amenities, there were shelves with bins of robes to take as you got off the elevator. In the lobby were shelves with bins filled with extra toothbrushes/toothpaste, hair brushes, and face sponges (all sealed in plastic of course) that you could replenish as needed. The face sponges were in lieu of washcloths we discovered. They were soft and delightful to bathe with. The room had an electric kettle but no microwave. There is a microwave close to the lobby for use tho and many vending machines if the Family Mart is closed. We had a TV but never used it. We did use the laundry room several times and found it interesting that there are specific laundry rooms for men and for women. It cost 300 yen for a 31 min wash and 100 yen for 20 min dryer. Soap is automatically dispensed into the machines so no need to purchase that. The hotel does offer wifi but it only works in the hotel proper. If you go outside the hotel to the Family Mart or patio you will not get service. The front desk staff were professional and very helpful, tho not all understood or spoke

Yes, the scenery is nice on the mountain

I think it was worth the price

It's not close to the train station, it's like it's far away haha. Because you have to climb the stairs. School, but by the time I get to school I'm a bit tired.

It's very convenient that the hotel is close to the station! However, it can be a little difficult when traveling with a suitcase. Because the slope is very long, it is difficult.

The hotel facilities have a sense of age, and the location is on the top of the mountain, so it is inconvenient to travel with luggage.

Not far from the station, but you have to climb stairs. Those with weak knees may find it a bit difficult. There is no parking lot, so those who go by car need to rent a parking lot nearby. The key was really a key, not a card key these days. I could connect to wifi, but it was a bit slow. Breakfast is a buffet style, and you can choose between Japanese and Western dishes. Considering the price, it can be said that it is reasonable.

The view was nice.

Affordable hotel with easy access to sanrio purioland. Overall we enjoyed

The windows are closed, you can't breathe, you can't change the fresh air, check out until 10:00 in the morning, and an extra 1,000 yen will be charged for more than 1 hour.

The TV volume in the room was broken. Couldn't watch TV at all. It was inconvenient to find the taxi stand.

There is a lot of greenery, and is it bellworms at night? It was nice to hear the crickets chirping.

I used it for the first time. It is located a little up the stairs from Na***ama Station. Service is the same as any other hotel. If you normally stay as a single, the surroundings are not noisy and it is a good place.
