Book Solare Hotels and Resorts Ikebukuro accommodation from NZ$91

This hotel is very convenient when you just landed in Japan, however because it’s so far away from the city prepare to spend at least two hours every day on the subway if you want to go shopping or restaurants.

Clean room

I think they need a noise cancellator in the rooms

Room was small but it was nice and modern

The rooms were beautiful with black out curtains (which I love and appreciate) and there were plenty of amenities that I enjoyed.

Overall this is in a great location, close to trains. Where we struggled was the elevator situation. We would wait 10 minutes for an elevator. Everything time we would want to leave or return we were waiting for an elevator. Additionally, the rooms were very small. My husband is 6’2” and struggled. The dryers in the laundry room took an hour and a half to dry, and even then they were still damp. It’s a great budget friendly hotel in a great location. The lobby, and lounge are lovely, the pool area lovely as well. It’s just the laundry room, elevators and size of room.
