Centurion Hotels in Tokyo

Location is perfect — only a 5-minute walk from the station, making it very convenient for getting around. I stayed for 5 nights and the accessibility was definitely one of the biggest advantages. The hotel is also next to a nice garden, which provides a pleasant atmosphere and a relaxing place to walk around. There are also plenty of shops, restaurants, and places to explore nearby, so the surrounding area is very convenient. However, the room was very small, and considering the high price, I expected better value for money. While the location and surroundings are excellent, I believe there are other hotels that can offer a better overall experience at a similar price point.

This place is essentially like a bathhouse or hot spring spa back home, the kind where you pay 39-79 RMB for unlimited soaking. The difference is, their bunks aren't first-come, first-served; you need to register for one. Anyone who's spent a night at a bathhouse knows that how well you sleep entirely depends on the people around you. I had bad luck this time – two people nearby were snoring, so I barely slept all night. Otherwise, just imagine it's a hot spring spa. If you've never been, a 39-RMB experience will give you the idea. Overall, it's actually pretty good. I booked a bunk on the second floor, which requires a password to enter. The showers and toilets are shared but in multiple private rooms. There are several rows of tables in the common area, so you can bring your laptop and continue working if you need to. If you enjoy soaking, the baths on the fourth floor are also nice. The location is indeed unbeatable. It's very close to Ueno-Okachimachi Station and Ueno isn't far either, making it a lively and bustling area. Plus, the outside noise doesn't bother you inside. I'd recommend it to anyone who needs early morning transport or plans to stay out late in Ueno. Just bring earplugs. For photos, look at others' – I only have one quick snap from a QQ group chat where I was complaining.

Honestly i really love the hotel despite the sizing of the room, it was super near to the subway line like 2/3 mins walk. Near to convenience store and everything. Definitely will stay here if im coming again

Extremely convenient location to multiple lines of subway/train. The hotel sits in the middle of a neighborhood of restaurants. Staff were friendly, helpful, and spoke English. The department store integrated with the subway station is an excellent place to pickup drugstore items at equal or lower prices. Even though I find the carpet in our room could be cleaner, the multi-purpose air filter makes the stay more comfortable than other hotels with cleaner carpet. Would stay there again.

Location is absolutely perfect. Very well connected with 4 metros stations nearby. Room is bigger than average in Tokyo. Staff was helpful. They have small kids corner so our 5 year old can play a bit while we were waiting at reception. Lots of food options nearby, it is a busy area late night but we did not hear much noise. Rooms has windows however those are facing the wall of the next building and it is kind of dark even with curtains open. We stayed there initially for 4 nights and then decided to extend for another 2 night as we liked the place.

Its a simple hostel. The good thing is they have a sento which you can use from 3:30am until 1:30am. The bed is fairly comfortable. Staffs are good mannered.

As a frequent traveler to Japan, I'm quite familiar with Japanese hotels. While the room was small (which is typical for hotels in great locations), it cleverly featured bunk beds, and surprisingly, the beds were quite spacious. It was perfectly fine even with kids! The location is absolutely fantastic. As soon as you step out, there are tons of menus everywhere, and you can walk to anything you want to eat. Ueno itself is a place where you'll never struggle to find food, and personally, I think it's hard to go wrong – everything is delicious. You'll feel like your mouth and stomach aren't big enough! Although the price went up for the last two days, it was understandable given the season and crowd. After all, the location is the value. The photos below are from my previous visits, feel free to check them out and ask any questions! 🙋‍♀️

Every time I go out, I pass by the front desk, and the staff always greets me, which I feel a little embarrassed about. I used the hotel for business, so I can't comment on the accommodation, but the location was good, the room was spacious, and it was convenient.
