Royal Pines Urawa

Amazing hotel, huge breakfast with many choices. Not too far from train station.

The hotel kind of has the feeling of an 80s 4 star hotel. It's a bit classic looking but was built with a premium feel and amenities. I liked the atmosphere, and breakfast was good with an omelet chef, scrambled eggs, coffee and other good items available. The beds are very firm, and didn't really suit my tastes. I stayed on the 8th floor so it's possible that premium floors might have upgraded beds, but as for the standard room, a softer bed would have been preferred. The hotel gave 2 bottles of water per day which was excellent. I only saw in-room tea so if you want in-room coffee you may want to stock up at the combini.

Direct connection from Haneda to the hotel. The room was spacious and the bed was big. There was no step in the bathroom. There was a cleaning eco plan and I got a 500 yen ticket. The bakery in the hotel was delicious. There were restaurants, department stores and movie theaters near the hotel. However, there was a large construction going on right in front of the room and it was noisy during the day. It will probably be noisy for half a year.
