สถานีชินบาชิ × ที่พักชมดอกไม้โรงแรม·เรียวกังที่มีคะแนนความพึงพอใจสูง

A stay with breakfast that feels truly luxurious. The breakfast was exceptionally delicious. The staff’s hospitality and service were perfect in every way. I’d love to come back for another extraordinary getaway.

I used to stay at Mercure quite often overseas, but since I travel less these days, this was my first stay in a while. The location is very convenient—just a short walk from Shimbashi Station and Uchisaiwaicho Subway Station. I believe it was originally an office building, later converted into an annex of a neighboring Hotel, and then rebranded as Mercure. Since the property is scheduled to close soon for renovations, I was grateful to be able to stay at a very reasonable rate. Perhaps because of the location and the brand, most guests were international, and many of the front desk staff were as well (they assisted me in flawless Japanese). With an interior design inspired by a “theater,” the whole place feels even more international. The Room design was also quite bold. There is a couch-like platform near the window where you can lie down and watch trains passing by (Shinkansen, Tokaido Line, Keihin-Tohoku Line, etc.). However, getting up onto it takes some effort, and opinions may differ on how practical it really is. Aside from the décor and these design choices, it felt like a slightly upscale Business Hotel. I’m looking forward to seeing what concept it will adopt after the renovation.

Because it is close to Ginza, I used it for an overnight stay only and returned late. There was no bathtub, but the multifunction showerhead and body jet feature helped me feel refreshed. I would like to stay again.
