Hotel New Grand

原文: I learned about the Yokohama New Grand Hotel from the show "Lunch in a Famous Building". This time I gave up Tokyo and stayed in Yokohama for a trip to Japan. The hotel is cost-effective. It is worth noting that hotels in Yokohama are much more expensive on Saturdays. The hotel is in a very advantageous location. There is a bus stop at the door that goes to Haneda Airport, and from Haneda you can take a bus to Narita Airport. The bus stop diagonally opposite this bus stop goes to Yokohama Station, where shopping is all there. It is within walking distance of Chinatown and the Red Brick Warehouse. It is opposite Yamashita Park, where roses bloom in early summer. However, the hotel is completely outdated. I came to Japan to travel largely to avoid secondhand smoke. When I went to a hot spring hotel in the countryside, all the buildings were non-smoking. There are smoking rooms here. The main building of the hotel is on the 5th floor, which is a high-rise building. My room is in the tower. I booked a corner smoking room and changed it to a front-facing room for an additional 3,000 yen. This is completely acceptable. The problem is that the whole tower has a bad smell, and the non-smoking room also has a smoke smell. I found that it was the air conditioner that came in. I turned off the air conditioner and turned on the air purifier, which made it much better. The windows are completely sealed. Compared with the Tokyo Empire, the maintenance is really great, and the room has no odor. The quilt was covered with a sheet, not a duvet cover. I don't know if the quilt was changed after each guest, but fortunately, there was no odor. However, the sheet was very wrinkled, which was unpleasant. The clock wasn't silent and was quite loud late at night. The windows were poorly insulated, and the sound of cars at night disturbed my sleep. Breakfast was a Japanese and Western set menu. Fake flowers were placed on the table; even a single real one would have been nice. The quality and taste were acceptable for the price. Overall, the hotel doesn't require overnight stays. You can visit the main building before 10 AM. The staircase isn't particularly grand, but in the afternoon, it was crowded with tourists and occupied by weddings, which made the experience less enjoyable. There are two cafes in the restaurant, one of which serves simple pasta dishes at reasonable prices. Locals also come, and there are queues during peak hours.

This hotel is so beautiful, a combination of modern and modern. The breakfast view is as beautiful as a painting. Entering from another door is a historical site. It is a hotel where MacArthur and Chaplin once stayed. It is full of historical sense and very photogenic. I hope to stay a few more days next time.
