The hotel location is excellent; the Ikebukuro train station is just a stone throw away, walking distance to shopping and restaurants area. Hotel staff are very friendly, always ready to help out guests. Will stay again next time come to Tokyo!

It’s so lucky for me to stay at The B Hotel for my birthday trip. Everything is managed well with cleanliness and tidiness. Very comfortable room for resting and it is always fun to see my dolls are lined up in order whenever there are cleaning of my bed. Thanks, the secret housekeeper~

I have been staying at The B Ikebukuro for the last 15 years whenever I go to Tokyo. Ikebukuro East side is much more quite than the west side and way less hectic than Shinjuku. This hotel is very close to the station with easy access to both JR and Metro.

Super convenient spot very close to Ikebukuro station. Ichiran on the street behind the hotel. Lots of dining options. A bit far from Sunshine City but not too far.

Lin, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The location was great, close to the train station, restaurants and shopping. They were very kind to hold our bags after check out until our flight time. Beds were clean and comfortable, the shower was very relaxing with interesting water features. There room had some scratched furniture and the lobby drinking water system was broken, these could be easily fixed and it could give a better impression to guests. A pizza restaurant was located on the second, even though it was expensive, it was very convenient after a long day of walking. Overall it was a pleasant stay.

Budget hotel

Friendly staff, luggage storage is available. Rooms are tiny according to the price. Convenient to go anywhere, 4 minutes walk to subway or JR line.

Good and bad

The location is good, staff is nice and helpful, but room doesn't block the outside noise, the bed is hard as a rock and many lightbulbs in the room were burned out.

Eva, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Extremely practical. Met all my needs. The location is outstanding, minutes from one of the main railway stations, Ikebukuro. I could even run every morning from this location, just by crossing the nearby bridge. I thoroughly recommend breakfast, especially the smoothy. There are plenty of eateries nearby. There’s a super local place opposite.

Close to every thing!
BIENVENIDO, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The B has been my main stay for the past 12 years. It has great access to food and shopping and easy transport by train or subway. And the area is more quiet than other touristy spots like Shinjuku and Ueno.

Hotel room is clean and bright, the staffs are nice and easy to communicate
