Good hotel and location and very close to the station. Walls are super thin so you may hear some late night activity from other rooms. But other than that, very good hotel for the price. Would recommend.

I like the convenient location of this hotel and the price, so I have stayed here several times. It is also convenient that they don't have daily cleaning in the room, and they only deliver towels every 3 days.
The receptionists are also very polite and kind. I hope they will have more non-smoking rooms in the future.

The staff are very nice and kind. This is one of the more dated properties I have visited in japan. If you are accustomed to some of the newer hotels, this may not be the fit for you. Otherwise comfy bed and private room.

Location is good, Close to public transportation and convenient stores, Quiet neighbourhood. Provided good toiletries. They have laundry facilities but it does not dry well. Cleanliness needs a lot of work. The room we have is very dusty and still have stain marks. It is also the same as the Smile Hotel we stayed at in Osaka.

The area was convenient, however, the blankets were dirty and there were cigarette burns on the curtains and the chair. Moreover, the towels smelled like seafood.

The hotel is very convenient as it's very near the Tokyo metro and there's a convenience store nearby. Its location is also near most areas so it's easy to get around. However the experience staying there for me wasn't great and the walls are thin so if you're a light sleeper this isn't the hotel for you. It's a decent stay if you're not fussy due to the ideal location but there are better hotels out there for around the same price.

My first time in Japan I accidentally left my phone in the back of my taxi. Fortunately, the wonderful staff at Smile Hotel Tokyo Nihonbashi were able to call the number on the taxi receipt and arrange for the driver to return to the hotel. I was able to retrieve my phone and enjoy the rest of my stay.
10/10 would recommend this hotel to everyone. Also, the all you can eat breakfast at the restaurant down stairs is delicious.

Old fashioned hotel with no sound proof so you can hear the noise from the hallway very well. The room for single is compact and quite suffocating. However, the transportation is convenient as hotel is located right in front of kayabacho station.

The stay went well. There is a Lawson right next door, very convenient. There are late night food chains nearby. Please note that the entrance has stairs, so you have to carry your suitcase. Not very accessible. They have a table area in the lobby but unfortunately you can't eat there.

Overall, i will give them 3 out of 5 stars. Why?
Here are the reasons.
The thing that i liked about this hotel was that it was close to train stations, convenient stores, restaurants, and 15 mins walk from the Nagoya Castle. the room is pretty ok size. Has there own restaurant in the bottom basement floor.
The dislike about this hotel was the day we checked in, and it was about at 11pm. An older gentleman staff member at the front counter was helping us. I felt like he was upset about something. I don't know what, but the way he talked to us and the way he helped us was not very friendly. Also, our Expedia travel package included breakfast. How did i know? So the next morning, my son and i went to the front counter to ask one of the staff members( different person) and i said if my Expedia travel package includes breakfast. She double checked my liter if the breakfast
