The location of the hotel is amazing. It is very close to the entrance to the universal Studios Park. The lobby is very big and decorated nice. The hallways are hot. The rooms are decent, but have not been renovated recently. So they are outdated. The beds are very bad. You could feel the springs in your back when you lay down. The dark decor makes the hotel look old and dirty. The hotel is relatively clean like everything else in Japan.

I was trying to send my luggages to the next hotel. I felt like Koga was unwilling to help me in doing so. Also, when I sent an inquiry to the hotel, it took them 3 days and another follow up mesage before I got an answer. O dont think they prioritize their customer.

The internet was terrible—I couldn’t use it even after reporting the issue and trying their local router solution. They urgently need to upgrade their internet infrastructure. It was the only hotel in Japan with such a problem.

Conveniently located right outside USJ, and at Universal City Walk. The Limousines bus drop off about 5 min walk from the hotel. Many shopping options and restaurants right outside. The hotel itself is beautiful. We stayed on a luxury floor. The room was very clean and had tons of amenities. It was surprisingly quiet considering its proximity to the park and Universal City. We ate at the hotel restaurant for breakfast and dinner buffets. Both had a ton of options and the service was fantastic. Dinner was relaxing and not very busy. Breakfast was a bit chaotic with everyone rushing to eat and get to the park. But the staff manage the chaos well. Overall it was a great experience and I wouldn’t hesitate to book another stay here!

We enjoyed the convenience of being a few hundred yards from the USJ gates - this is centrally located. We didn’t like the fact we were quoted a rate on Expedia - and when we checked in - the hotel said our family had kids over 5 years old and had to charge us alot more than our quoted rate. We had no choice at that point. That part is a bit confusing and would not highly recommend as a result.

Wow! What a beautiful property! So close to Universal Studios and the subway is attached! My only suggestion is to get smart TV’s in the rooms. After a long day at the park, my daughter wanted to shower and relax watching a show before bed. As it is Japan, I wouldn’t expect English speaking shows, but having Chrome cast to cast from our phones would have been super convenient. When I tried to look for the wifi (which was also horrible) I saw 4 Firesticks lol So I guess people already knew there was limited TV options

A Perfect Family Stay Right at the Gates of Universal Studios Japan! We had an absolutely fantastic stay at The Park Front Hotel! From the moment we arrived, the staff were warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful — even going out of their way to make our kids feel special. The location could not be more convenient — literally steps from the entrance to Universal Studios, which made it so easy to get in early and take breaks during the day. Our room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and offered a beautiful view of the park. The decor had a fun, modern vibe with little touches that made it feel themed but still refined. We loved the convenience of the Lawson downstairs and being so close to great dining options. Breakfast was a highlight — a generous buffet with both Western and Japanese options, and something to please even our pickiest eater. We would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to any family looking for a comfortable, fun, and super convenient base for their USJ adventure. Thank you for a magical stay! — A happy family of 4 from Australia!
