Know before you book
- Tokyo Station has two faces. The Marunouchi side faces the Imperial Palace and the red-brick station building; the Yaesu side is the modern, Nihonbashi-facing half. Know which side your hotel is on before you start walking.
- Every exit has a name — Marunouchi North, Central and South, Yaesu North, Central and South, and the Nihonbashi exit. The hotels below give their walking time from a specific one, and the station is big enough that the wrong exit can add ten minutes.
- The Narita Express arrives on deep underground platforms. Allow extra time to reach street level with luggage.
- Kyobashi, on the Ginza subway line, is the quiet office district just south of Yaesu. Two of these five are a minute from Kyobashi station and seven to ten minutes on foot from Yaesu South.
- Nihonbashi station (Ginza, Tozai and Asakusa lines) is a few minutes north-east of Yaesu, so hotels between the two can use either.
- Prices here are per person with breakfast, for two sharing. A Saturday usually costs more than a Wednesday, and at the top of the range the gap is wide.

What we dropped
| Property | Verdict | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Yaesu Terminal Hotel | Runner-up (65/100) | 65/100, level with Hotel Intergate but behind it on the details. It has the lowest weeknight price of all seven and is three minutes from Yaesu North, but room, bath and food average only 3.92 and reviews 4.07 across 3,366 — one star each for quality and trust. |
| Hotel Metropolitan Marunouchi | Runner-up (63/100) | 63/100, two points behind Hotel Intergate. Linked to the station with 3,175 reviews, but weeknights run ¥25,000–75,000 per person — 151% of the median — which earns one star for value. |
| Imperial Hotel Tokyo | Outside the theme | 4.70 across 2,896 reviews, but its listing puts Tokyo Station about five minutes away by taxi — on foot it is a Hibiya and Yurakucho hotel. |
| Ascott Marunouchi Tokyo | Outside the theme | A 5.0 average, but on only 50 reviews, and it is about ten minutes from Tokyo Station — its own connection is to Otemachi. |
| Mitsui Garden Hotel Otemachi and Hotel Kazusaya | In another guide | Both qualified, but they are already in our Ginza and Tokyo Station guide, so we gave the places here to different hotels. |
| 183 hotels | Below the floor | Fewer than 50 reviews, or an average below 4.0. |
Questions visitors ask
I arrive at Tokyo Station on the Shinkansen. Which of these is closest?
The Tokyo Station Hotel is inside the station building, linked to the Marunouchi South exit. On the Yaesu side, Super Hotel Premier is three minutes from Yaesu Central and Hotel Ryumeikan three minutes from Yaesu North. Hotel Metropolitan Marunouchi, just outside the five, is linked to the Nihonbashi exit. Check the exit name before you set off — the station is large.
Marunouchi side or Yaesu side?
Marunouchi faces the Imperial Palace and the red-brick station building — offices, wide streets, and the Tokyo Station Hotel. Yaesu is the Nihonbashi-facing side, with most of the mid-priced hotels and quick walks to Nihonbashi and Kyobashi. Four of these five are on the Yaesu side.
Is there anywhere with a big bath?
Super Hotel Premier, three minutes from Yaesu Central, has separate men’s and women’s baths with ionised water and high-concentration carbonated water. The Tokyo Station Hotel has a sauna and a spa for guests 16 and over, at a charge. Japanese baths are communal and nude, so if you have a tattoo, ask the hotel first.
How do I get here from the airports?
Super Hotel Premier’s listing gives about 30 minutes by limousine bus from Haneda and about 60 minutes by JR express from Narita — the Narita Express runs into Tokyo Station. Its platforms are deep underground, so allow extra time with luggage.
How much do these cost?
The table shows the cheapest price per person with breakfast, for two sharing, from Rakuten Travel’s availability search for Wednesdays and Saturdays between 18 November 2026 and 9 January 2027. Weekdays start from about ¥14,000 at Super Hotel Premier and Hotel Intergate, ¥17,000 at Hotel Ryumeikan, and ¥43,000 at the Tokyo Station Hotel. No rooms came up for Daiwa Roynet in that window. Saturdays are higher.
Which one would you book?
The Tokyo Station Hotel: 80/100, the highest score here, and 4.84 across 976 reviews, inside the station itself. If the cost matters more, Super Hotel Premier is from about ¥14,000 per person, three minutes from Yaesu Central, with a carbonated bath.
