Bayside Hotel Azur Takeshiba

Even though the room did not have views of Tokyo Bay or other landmarks, it had a view of the Yurikamome Line. As a trainspotter, it was very exciting. Onsen facility is decent and quiet. Room is sizable for the price I paid. Toyosu Market is about a 20 minute ride away, but is convenient as you do not need to transfer between lines.

The staff service was amazing. This seems a traditional place that has all the values of a traditional high-quality hotel tailored to domestic customers, unlike flashy hotels tailored to tourists. They go the extra mile to make your stay very comfortale and well cared for, such as bringing your luggage up to your new room if you have a change of rooms, taxi concierge so that you do nothing other than sit and wait (in case you have heavy luggage). Views are amazing from every window. Rooms are large and comfortable, which is hard to come by in Tokyo. Breakfast is healthy, Western and Japanese, buffet style. Very convenient location, close to multiple train lines. Modern neighborhood. Love the place. Value for the price is great. One note is that the bath male and female sides switch every week. So whether you get the ocean view or city view that week depends on your luck! If your stay spans across two calendar weeks, you could get both views.

Within walking distance from Hamamatsu-cho mono rail station, can use sky bridge walk way through Soft Bank building all the way to the hotel to avoid traffic. Many place to eat in Soft Bank office building, Takeshiba station gives good access to Shinbashi and Odaiba. Nice scenery of Tokyo Bay, old Tokyo Tower, new Tokyo Tower, Convenience store (Family Mart) on opposite block, Have a hot spring on 18th floor (view was not as good as expected), and most important of all, with a fairly reasonable price.

The staff were extremely hospitable and the room was exactly as described. I was allowed to check in early, which was convenient because I had some stuff planned for the day. I think its well worth the price and great location as well.

Friendly staff; lovely ocean view (and the impressive Rainbow Bridge and Odaiba...) from room; comfortable bed; good location near train/subway stations with Tokyo Tower about a 15-20 minute walk away...All in all it was a lovely staycation for me in Tokyo!
