Hotel Monterey La Soeur Ginza

“A place to stay in Ginza area”

I booked an economy double non-smoking room 15.3 SQM at the Hotel Monterrey La Soeur Ginza for one night before starting my trip to Japan. I arrived late so it wasn't a problem that I didn't have a proper window because it was already night and my train was early in the morning. The place is convenient, it is walking distance from Tokyo Station and Shinkansen (12 min walk) and in Ginza area, so are plenty of shops, combini, restaurants, etc, very convenient. The room was clean and comfortable, well equipped with all the toiletries you need. Just bear in mind that it is quite small so it is impossible to travel with a large suitcase and I cannot recommend the room for 2 people, Please bear in mind that the room looks like it was decorated in the 19th century, so it may feel a bit outdated, but that is the style of the hotel. The staff speak very good English and they offered me water as soon as I arrived.

This quaint little hotel in a small street in the Ginza has a lovely french feel to it.It is within walking distant of Tokyo station approx.15 mins. The staff are very obliging and helpful. The rooms are tiny with parquetry floors. It is like stepping back into a time of gaiety and flambuoyant style of the 1920's. In the hallway there is an alabaster bust of a 1920's lady looking very elegant. The decor on the walls are pages out of a 1920's catalogue with handrawn designs of the costume of the time period. The beds however are very hard and not very comfortable. Our room was a double with very little room to move about. We had two cases and were unable to unpack or remove clothes at the same time.The bathroom is set in the 1920's style including the taps and the sink.The shower/bath combination was very high to get into and out of-not very good for an elderly person with limited movement. The restaurant for breakfast was like a very french cafe that you would find on the Seine River in Paris.The head waiter was the person who welcomed you into the restaurant and was very proud of his position he holds and takes great pride in his work. His service is immaculate. The lifts are designed once again in the 1920's style. We were very impressed by the style and also the ambience of this hotel
