The environment here is pretty good, and there's ice cream at the front desk. It's about a 10-minute walk to the subway station. It's a bit uphill, but it's right next to Tokyo Dome and there are plenty of restaurants nearby, so dining is very convenient.

The room was bigger than I expected, though the toilet seat wasn't properly cleaned. Rather than making a fuss, I just disinfected and wiped it myself. Aside from that, everything else about the stay was perfect. Its location is incredibly convenient, being super close to the subway station – it's an absolute steal, especially when using a 1-day pass. You'll find food options and a convenience store right downstairs, and it's served by two different subway lines nearby. Getting around was completely stress-free.

The hotel's location is super convenient, just a 5-minute walk from Ikebukuro Station. There's a 7-Eleven right across the street, and a McDonald's and FamilyMart just a bit further down. You'll also find electronics stores nearby. All in all, the area is very lively and bustling.

The hotel itself is quiet. However, it's a shame that wherever there are Chinese guests, there seems to be noise. The three Chinese guests in the adjacent room talked loudly every night until past 2 AM. The soundproofing was actually quite decent; they were just incredibly loud!

I highly recommend this hotel. They offer complimentary desserts every afternoon, which is a very thoughtful touch.

I had the pleasure of staying at the B Shimbashi Toranomon Hotel in Tokyo, and it exceeded my expectations. This stylish hotel is nestled in a quiet neighborhood, yet still within walking distance to the bustling Shimbashi and Toranomon areas.
The room was compact, but cleverly designed to maximize space. The bed was comfortable, and the amenities were top-notch. I particularly appreciated the high-tech toilet and the rainfall showerhead.
The hotel's proximity to public transportation made exploring Tokyo a breeze. Additionally, there are plenty of dining and shopping options nearby.
Overall, I highly recommend the B Shimbashi Toranomon Hotel for its modern amenities, excellent service, and prime location.

During our stay at B Hotel and had the pleasure of being assisted by Bishal during both our check-in and check-out. He is truly one of the best people we have met at a hotel reception. Bishal was extremely kind, understanding, and supportive with all our requests. He guided us with useful information about new locations and made us feel genuinely welcomed. His professionalism and positive attitude stood out, and we sincerely wish his work schedule had matched our stay, as he made a real difference.

Unfortunately, when Bishal was not on duty, we faced several challenges with the housekeeping staff. The service was consistently poor — the room was not dusted daily, and we had to repeatedly go down to reception to request basic housekeeping. The staff often seemed unwilling to assist, making faces as though they didn’t want to work. On one occasion, when we asked for the bedsheet to be changed, they left a note saying it couldn’t be done because of “personal items” on the bed — when in reality, the only item was a hotel-provided pajama. When we raised this again, the housekeeping staff came to our room, handed me a sheet, and expected me to change it myself. When I refused, he stared at me and told me to “leave the room” because he wouldn’t change the sheet in front of me. This behavior is completely unacceptable in a hotel environment.

If Bishal had been available throughout our stay, I am confident we would not have experienced such negativity. His excellent service deserves recognition, but unfortunately, the unprofessional behavior of the housekeeping team left a disappointing impression on our overall stay.

Excellent Stay with the Sweetest Staff
From the moment we arrived, the check-in was swift and welcoming—truly one of the friendliest hotel teams we’ve met. The rooms are clean and comfortable, though a bit on the smaller side—but that’s to be expected in Japan. The breakfast buffet offers a nice variety, with options that cater to both local and Western tastes. All in all, a great experience and we’d happily stay again.

The b Akasaka is very modern and comfortable. The room wasn't big but it was clean and cozy. The shower has body spray jets and that was very nice. The staff was friendly and helpful and the breakfast was good. Not many options but I thought the available choices were good. I liked the flavored syrups for the coffee and the yogurt with muesli and fresh fruit.

The B Asakusa, is great. Its location although a little away from the actual city of Tokyo. It doesn’t matter. The underground system as next level. You can be anywhere within 30-40 min. Asakusa is also a lovely place to explore. 

The hotel itself is, really good. The rooms are a little small, but I’ve found this with most of the places I’ve stayed in this part of the world. But comfortable, bed is great to relax in after a long day of exploring. Wi-Fi as you’d expect in Japan really good. Need to think about storage, but it’s workable. Staff are all very helpful, the coffee and cakes in the evening are a nice touch. 

All in all you can’t t fault the hotel. Top notch.

This is my second time staying at this hotel, and it's consistently excellent.

I originally booked another 'the b' hotel, but that one was too far away, up a hill from the subway station, with no convenience stores nearby, and it looked quite old. Walking back at night felt rather quiet and a bit eerie, and it seemed to be full of Indonesian guests. So, I switched back to this hotel.

 The environment here is still superb. It's incredibly convenient for the subway station, just a couple of turns and about 100-200 meters away. The street below is also very lively with plenty of food options. Akasaka Station is also conveniently located for getting to all the attractions.

Every night when you return, there are small desserts. During my previous stay, they had different ones, but these two times it's been donuts, haha. I look forward to seeing what else they'll have next time!

Although it's a little bit pricier, I highly recommend this hotel. It feels safe for solo travelers, and the transportation is exceptionally convenient.

It was close to the subway station and the price was cheap.
It was convenient because there was a sushi restaurant, a delicious ramen restaurant, and a supermarket nearby.
But the bathroom is a bit small.

excellent location with airport bus stop nearby. Near shopping street & many eateries. staff are friendly & helpful. We left one of my bags in hotel and they help to arrange the delivery to our next hotel in Tokyo. truly appreciate their help!

This is my second stay here, and I personally find it quite good. It's very close to Hakata Station; after taking the bus from the airport to Hakata Station, it's less than a 10-minute walk. The rooms are also fine.

The breakfast offers a good mix of Japanese and Western options, including salads, bread, cakes, as well as ramen and rice (where you can add your own broth). For drinks, there's coffee, milk, and juice.

The only minor inconvenience is that the room's air conditioning only has four settings (off, low, medium, high) without specific temperature control. Medium felt too cold, while low felt too hot. However, it's a minor issue overall. I'd probably stay here again if I come back to Fukuoka.
