Hotel Villa Fontaine Grand Tokyo-Shiodome

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Villa Fontaine Shiodome during our family trip to Tokyo! The location of the hotel was excellent, within walking distance to the Ginza area and easy to navigate. It’s conveniently accessible to the Toei-Asakusa, Oedo, and JR Yamanote train lines. We especially appreciated how quiet and peaceful it was walking back to the hotel after a long day, without having to navigate through crowded areas. Our room was well set up for our family of three. The size was decent, comfortably accommodating three large suitcases, a queen-sized bed, and a sofa bed. It felt cozy and functional for our needs. The breakfast was enjoyable, offering a great variety of Western and Japanese food choices. We particularly loved the complimentary drinks during happy hour—it was a nice touch that we all appreciated! The staff at the lobby, especially the female staff members, were very helpful and knowledgeable. The check-in and check-out processes were smooth and efficient. They also assisted us with luggage transfer to the airport through the Airporter service, which made our departure much easier. Overall, we were very happy with our stay at Hotel Villa Fontaine Grand Tokyo-Shiodome. It was a perfect base for our family’s Tokyo adventure, and we would highly recommend it!

The room was very spacious, clean and had good facilities available. Location was the star of the show, having very easy access to multiple train stations, including full covered access to Shiodome station (very nice to have in winter!) but it was still much quieter than other parts of Tokyo that are this central. Laundry facilities, while a little pricey, were easy to use. Several convenience stores less than a 5 minute walk away and many good food and drink options within 20 minutes. The bed was VERY comfortable and the staff was very helpful, especially since I had to make some slightly complicated plans with them for luggage delivery to my next stay. The free drinks in the lobby at certain hours was also very nice with a good selection.

We liked underground to subway and trains. Lots of complimentary toiletries.. Complimentary Happy hour between 5 to 9 but time never worked for us and we didn’t get to go. Elevator was very quick so not much wait.

1. Amazing location. Shiodome Station is connected to the hotel. Shimbashi Station is only a 5 min walk away via the bridge system (= no traffic lights snd amazing views) and is a major station where trains and metros go to every major part of town. We felt that we could travel to every site we wanted easily 2. Incredible staff. They are very welcoming, helpful, respectful and very available. 3. Facility wise, it feels top-tier. The building feels futuristic. The rooms have great AC and ventilation and are very clean. I would recommend this hotel to every person staying in Tokyo.

I have used this hotel for almost 15 years during visits to Tokyo. It is well located. The breakfast is reliably good. Unfortunately, the large numbers of tourists now visiting Japan has impacted service speed at this hotel and that has introduce delays with breakfast.
