“A nice place to relax after a long day in Tokyo”

The Sky Heart Hotel is located in East Tokyo in a more quiet area in Edogawa.

The Sky Heart Hotel is located in East Tokyo in a more quiet area in Edogawa. It has a station right in front of the hotel, but we preferred to walk 15 minutes to Koiwa station from which you can easily get to Akihabara (15 minutes) and other central Tokyo districts. The staff was very friendly and spoke both Japanese and English. You'll find a staff member 24 hours at the Hotel lobby. The rooms are small and just what we wanted, because we just needed a place to sleep and no fancy features. The service works great, we had nothing to complain about. Features include free WiFi, air conditioning, daily new towels, razors and toothbrush, a washing room in the third floor and the hotel even has its own little restaurant. If you're looking for a small cosy room for a reasonable price with all necessary features for a place to sleep, Sky Heart Hotel might be a good choice for you. No complications, we had a good time.

“Great value, comfortable accommodations in a beautiful, oft overlooked part of Tokyo.”

I spent just under two weeks at the Sky Heart Hotel Koiwa this past winter. Having withstood 30+ hours of travel and several layovers, I was eager to get settled into the hotel and rest a bit prior to exploring Tokyo.

I spent just under two weeks at the Sky Heart Hotel Koiwa this past winter. Having withstood 30+ hours of travel and several layovers, I was eager to get settled into the hotel and rest a bit prior to exploring Tokyo. Just a minutes walking distance from Shin-Koiwa Station, Sky Heart Hotel Koiwa is nestled in a sleepy and fairly traditional part of Tokyo. There are open air markets, shrines and beautiful gardens within short walking distance, as well as several small restaurants and shops to purchase food and other goods. 7-11, Lawson and Family Mart are, as always, within a stones throw from wherever you're located. Check-in was a breeze, and I was greeted by a very friendly front desk assistant upon arrival. He was extremely polite when dealing with my Japanese language skills and was able to communicate much of the check-in procedure in English. While coming and going from the hotel, I was always greeted by somebody working the lobby... a wonderful gesture that I did not overlook during the course of my stay. Shin-Koiwa Station's proximity to the hotel made traveling into the more densely populated areas, including Shibuya and Shinjuku, extremely easy. If you feel like doing a bit of exploring locally, a short 15-20 minute walk will lead you to Koiwa Station. Something to keep in mind, in case you would like to better understand the areas surrounding the hotel. Side streets and quaint neighborhoods are scattered throughout, which can make for a very enjoyable early evening walk. If you have researched traveling to Japan you're likely aware about the size of most hotel accommodations within the country. Yes, the rooms are quite small... but if you're traveling alone, or perhaps with one other person, space shouldn't be a hindrance. The hotel has a restaurant located adjacent to the lobby, in case you're looking for a convenient bite to eat close by. The only issue you might have with this hotel is how far it's located from the more "touristy" and exciting parts of Tokyo. It's usually a 35-40 minute train ride to get to Shibuya, which can be a bit inconvenient. Regardless, it's worth the time on the train if you're able to acquire such lovely hotel accommodations. This was my second time visiting Tokyo and I definitely plan on returning later this year. With that said, I will absolutely look into staying with Sky Heart Hotel Koiwa again.

“Good value hotel with friendly staff & easy access to Akihabara”

We stayed at Sky Heart twice, first in early October 2019 and again in early November 2019. The staff were chatty and friendly, and they made us feel safe through Typhoon Hagibis.

We stayed at Sky Heart twice, first in early October 2019 and again in early November 2019. The staff were chatty and friendly, and they made us feel safe through Typhoon Hagibis. The rooms were decently soundproof - we could never hear our neighbours, but on our second stay, we were facing the train station and could hear the trains coming and going. The noises from that were never loud enough to stop us sleeping, so I wouldn't consider it a problem. The decor is old-fashioned, but the rooms are pleasant and quite clean and comfy, although we noticed some dust in corners and behind the TV. The hotel is in a great location, directly opposite Keisei Koiwa Station. It's best situated for places like Akihabara, but you can get to most tourist locations within an hour or so, which is to be expected for somewhere as big as Tokyo. Keisei Koiwa itself is a nice town, and the hotel is close to a few convenience stores and Keisei Koiwa Craft Bottleshop, which is well worth the visit if you get a chance. You can also walk to Koiwa itself, which is much larger and has quite a few bars and restaurants. Overall, the hotel is great value for money, and I wouldn't hesitate to go back in the future.

“Hotel near the station”

It is clean and and the train station is just outside the hotel. There is free coffee and a microwave by the lobby. Staff are great too. Best part is it is near the Narita airport. There is local and the non-staff train to Narita.
