Review 3:Nothing bad
Review 4:Good quality hotel. Excellent buffet evening meal, great choice. Very good price when compared with another hotel we stayed at in the area.
Review 5:The nearest convenient store from the hotel was quite a walk away and it was difficult getting snacks as we arrived late in the night.
Review 6:Convenient hotel as it provided free shuttle services to and from the airport. We purchased breakfast with our booking and it was good also.
Review 7:No real shops/convenience stores around, although there's a small convenience store on the lobby floor of the hotel.
Review 8:Regular shuttle buses to and from Narita airport, and welcoming staff members.
Review 9:I needed to print some stuff and found out that I have to pay for it which is not really nice in hotel that is provided mostly for business travelers.
Review 10:Usual room like in any 3 or 4 star hotel. Often free shuttle to and from the airport. Well looking lobby.
Review 11:The hotel informed us that they did not get information from Booking.com regarding room selection and special requests for baby cots.
Review 12:The staff were responsive in addressing the issues regarding allocating a smoking rather than non-smoking room and not initially preparing a baby cot as had been requested.
Review 13:There aren't many options to eat in the evenings though there is a little convenience store to buy snack. The beds were a little bit hard to our european taste.
Review 14:The hotel is very well situated next to the airport.
Review 15:We paid in advance for a room with two beds and received a room with one for 3 people the sleep in. The rooms smelled of sewage as soon as we checked in. The beds were the west I have ever been on. Also, the staff wouldn't even call a taxi for us to get to the airport for our 6 am flight or give us a number for the taxi company so we could do it ourselves. We had to resort to walking in the cold to the hotel down the street for help.
Review 16:It was close to the airport
Review 17:The hotel had a 90's feel to it. It needs to upgrade its facilities and the room of our children had a dirty bathroom. It was not cleaned well.
Review 18:The location is near the airport which was our objective so we did not have to wake up so early to catch our flight.
Review 19:Far away from the JR narita station or keisei narita station and need car or shuttle to go there.
Review 20:The junior suite room is very un japanese in size. most japanese room is very small but this narita gateway room is big for japanese standard room and also the location is very convenient if you have morning flight only 5minutes to narita airport.
Review 21:Dirty ventilation..the dust comes out from it... The room temperature is hot considering we stayed on DecembeR The exhaust fan can't even suck the smoke in the smoking room. The sfaff are not so accommodating maybe because they can only speak Japanese.
Review 22:Location is ok.
Review 23:We were in transit in Narita. The hotel is comfortable, the reception staff were helpful, and the store in the lobby was very convenient. The free shuttle to the airport and mall was great too.
Review 24:Breakfast buffet ends at 9:30 AM.
Review 25:Inexpensive perfect layover hotel. Amazing value and close to the airport, and easy to visit the Aeon Mall for some Tax Free shopping, or walk around lovely quaint Narita. See the Temple.
Review 26:Rooms were a bit out-dated.
Review 27:Staff was very helpful and polite. Good English spoken by staff. Rooms were comfortable. Robes and slippers provided along with tea kettle and green tea. Free shuttle service to and from airport and Narita station. Last pick up from airport is at 22:30. Hotel has a shuttle schedule listed at front desk.
Review 28:The overall stay was good except for the plumbing, because water drains too slow. However, an overnight is still alright.
Review 29:Hotel is clean and comfy for an overnight stay. Staff is friendly. Airport shuttle is very helpful, especially for early morning flight.
Review 30:The hotel is a long way from any shops, but has a free shuttle bus to a large shopping mall to offset this negative.
Review 31:This hotel looks classy inside and out, but isn't that expensive. The hotel staff were courteous and professional. There is a free shuttle bus to Narita airport.
Review 32:I really don't like the room n furnitures they r really to old and the hotel itself really need to be fully refresh.
Review 33:I loved the location and the free shuttle bus then the restaurant open late in the night the possibility to make some currency exchange in the hotel.
Review 34:The window was terrible have lots of wild spiders, try not to open the window at night to prevent them from coming into the premises.
Review 35:Complimentary shuttle to and from airport
Review 36:A lot farther than expected, in order to get into Narita you need to take hotel bus or taxi. Hotel bus comes once a hour. Convenience store could do with stocking up more bento boxes and fresh foods. There was black mould on the shower head, really could do with changing altogether, was kinda disgusting to use.
Review 37:Near some good tourist spots. Good places to eat.
Review 38:range time for B'fast to short !!!!
Review 39:We may go to Narita station or to AEON Mall without more extra money, because there're enough schedule shuttle Bus that we can choose what time we want to go.
Review 40:Upon check in, staffs not as helpful ESP traveling with kids. I had requested to have adjoining rooms, meaning rooms next to each other but was given a room on the left and a room on the room when out of the lift. ;(
Review 41:Ms kimura is helpful.
Review 42:The mattress ,the blanket are dirty, I have got many bedbuds bites on my bed at night.
Review 43:The front desk manager is very good in English speaking. He is helpful to answer our question for transportation suggestion.
Review 44:We had a very bad experience with the hotel as were given a room next to the elevators. Had to change the room four times that night. The standard of service and staff attitude was poor as they were not honest and kept on saying they have no other rooms available. No soap in the bathroom. Dirty carpets and rundown rooms and halls - we thought we were not in Japan! Would not stay there even if it were for free!
Review 45:Breakfast was good with a lot of variety in food although, the place was very busy.
Review 46:Hotel offers free shuttle bus from KEISEI-narita station but information about that can't be found from hotel website, had bit of broblem figuring where shuttles leave.
Review 47:Very nice rooms for price
Review 48:The restaurant was a great dissapointment. The buffet food was a strange mixture, not very fresh; no staff to help; very expensive for the quality.
Review 49:A clean and efficiënt hotel: at check-in the front desk automatically checks which shuttle bus you need.
Review 50:The food is the same every day and there is no choise - you have to pay 13 000 even for a cup of tea and slice of cake. The computer internet for money is very slow, it was not enough 20 min to make a check in, so I was went to an airport to do so.
Review 51:The Hotel is quiet.
Review 52:Not close to any stores malls or places too eat except the Hotel restaurant. Beds uncomfortable but for the price it was ok
Review 53:Close to airport and an English speaking staff member
Review 54:It's not easy to reach without having to use a cab- I stayed here because I booked an early morning flight home, but had to pay for a cab (cabs are pretty expensive in Japan) because there are very few complimentary shuttles that run from this hotel to the airport.
Review 55:Clean with helpful and friendly staff
Review 56:Shower drain was slow. Electrical outlets on desk did not supply power to my laptop. Air conditioner was not as powerful as it should have been. The hotel did not tell me about their free airport shuttle service so I wasted $17 on a taxi. The hallway on my floor smelled a bit.
Review 57:Near the airport. Restaurants on-site. Clean rooms. Good room prices.
Review 58:You can't visit the city because of the location. Recomended to go there late in the evening.
Review 59:Very good if you have an early flight. Free shuttle bus and wake up call in the room.
Review 60:staff are not kind I have stayed here 10 times and they are not really helpful but you get what you pay for the hotel is clean and cheap and I will stayhere again cause I already know my way around
Review 61:Found some hairs in the sink and shower.
Review 62:- Friendly staff, very welcoming - Upgraded our room to a suite as there were no standard rooms left but we still paid the same as a standard - Comfy bed - Nice amenities - Great parking and fairly priced
Review 63:Lacking a bar to relax in
Review 64:Courtesy pickup & return,& bus to city center. Great buffet dinner. Nice check in staff. Well organised checkout in spite of large crowds all going to airport.
Review 65:The bathroom could do with an update, the bit of mould on the shower curtains wasn't so nice.
Review 66:Great to be able to get an in-room massage. We really appreciated that there was a restaurant open until very late too!
Review 67:inconsistency of room comfort level. my first stay on the way out of tokyo was great. second stay on the way back in was not as good. the beds just weren't as comfortable and something was wrong with the temperature dial for the shower (but we were too tired to complain or request for a change)
Review 68:proximity to airport, friendly and helpful staff (though not all speak English or understand it well at all)
Review 69:Furniture have seen better days. The hair dryer was old and not working properly. Mattress was lumpy.
Review 70:Breakfast Buffet. Price was excellent. Selection was very good. Staff was very efficient. Room refrigerator was new.
Review 71:No nearby shops or amenities. When I asked for some milk they were unable to provide any. The onsite shop didn't sell it either.
Review 72:Adequate airport hotel
Review 73:Buffet dinner was too expensive, I couldn't afford it.
Review 74:Staff was very helpful. I really appreciated free shuttle and it was nice having a gym in the hotel. I'm a vegetarian and I was happy to be able to have a good breakfast since there were quite a few vegetarian choices.Loved the bed, nice firm mattress.
Review 75:All good
Review 76:Easy access to Narita Airport If you need a night near the airport, there's a complimentary bus service to and from the airport and and complimentary trips to city. great buffet. Good hotel for the price .
Review 77:Facilities are really old and therefore not clean! The toilette was real old so better dont use the washlet! Not worth for the money charged
Review 78:The staff is real nice and helps out where it's needed! Location real close to the airport. Easy access by car and good and fair priced parking lot.
Review 79:The info about the schedule of the bus are not very clear and For this I must be take a taxi for go back to the hotel from Aeon for pick up my luggage.
Review 80:The place
Review 81:There's a very handy shuttle bus to the Narita airport and city centre which is around Narita stn. It takes around 20mins to get there and back!! The hotel is good enough to enjoy for 2 or 3 days if you have to stop by Tokyo by flights. Wifi is rly fast as well :)
Review 82:The serve seemed lackluster...but It was inexpensive.
Review 83:It was only a night, but the room smelled of smoke and we had asked for a non-smoking room...They changed it for us avery we insisted.
Review 84:The cleanliness of our room left much to be desired, as there were quite a few small cockroaches about. However this might not be unusual, and since I come from a country with no cockroaches, I have very little comparison. Also, our friends who stayed in a different room from ours said they didn't notice any cockroaches, so this is possibly just an isolated incident. However this still negatively impacted our stay to some degree.
Review 85:The staff was helpful and polite, close proximity to the Narita airport (we were staying for one night before departure), and the bus that came in the morning was very professionally handled (no more seats available, so we got free taxi rides to the airport!). The breakfast was very nice, and the dinner we had at the hotel the night before was excellent (if maybe a little expensive, but still fair). The garden was also very nice and rather romantic.
Review 86:No objections. It would be nice if shuttles to NRT ran 2 X per hour in the early morning.
Review 87:Very economical for overnight stays pending an early NRT departure. All conditions and amenities exceeded that implicit in the YEN 5,250 all-in price point.
Review 88:Shuttle bus from the airport to the hotel takes a while since it stops at Terminal 1, Terminal 2 and the Hilton Hotel before arriving at the Gateway Hotel (30 min.); shuttle bus from the hotel to the airport stops at Terminal 2 before it takes you to Terminal 1; furniture dated and the room was not very clean
Review 89:Free shuttle bus, shop in the hotel where you could buy ramen noodles etc
Review 90:They said they have available cribs for babies, but upon our arrival we found that they had none.
Review 91:it's very close to the airport, and the shuttle bus is a plus
Review 92:We booked the hotel for proximity to the airport but the whole room was dusty and the employee who took our order was very rude.... Literally it is a transient hotel otherwise we would never have chosen to be there.
Review 93:Free shuttle from the airport
Review 94:it's a 2,000 yen ($20) cab fare (15 minutes) from the nearest train station. to have fun you need to get a cab to narita town.
Review 95:very nice big room. maybe they upgraded me because they had run out of regular rooms? it was huge.
Review 96:i arrived at night showered woke up nextmorning with itchy legs lots of tiny bites near ankles andback of knee to be fair these dust mites may have come from the plane korea tokyo or the hotel room next morning i put some coffee grains on carpet after returning still there maids had not vacumed i have since traveled to hk and guangzhou no bites arriving back at gateway on 7th see if bites return haha all in all i will stay again on next trip thankyou
Review 97:quick trip to airport good front couter staff with reasonable english
Review 98:We Have Book 2 Rooms . First Room Single Bed For One Person Second Room 2 Single Beds , When We Check In They Force Us To Pay Additional Yen For Two Single Beds Which Already Paid. Don't Understand The Procedure. Very Up Set
Review 99:Shuttle Bus Services
Review 100:No convinience store or shops near the hotel. There are choices betweendining in or take a free shuttle to Narita station or aeon Mall.
Review 101:Price, Standard and honesty. I forgot my brief case in a shuttle toairpot, and the hetel kept it fotme for until my next stay.
Review 102:Very outdated hotel, need of refurbishment, smell of humidity, hotel restaurant (dinner) charges a cover charge and minimum drink consumption (first time that I saw this in Japan)
Review 103:Free airport transfer Friendly personal at the reception
Review 104:As another reviewer described it, old dirty & smelly. The slat door to the compartment where the frige was, was encrusted with dust bunnies and when I got in bed and reached over to turn out the light, I noticed, presumably the last guest's contact lenses, dried on to the edge of the bedside table...
Review 105:The front desk staff was cordial and friendly and the AC was nice and cold
Review 106:Friendly informed staff, good English level, comfortable rooms that were clean and quiet, A good breakfast and an organised shuttle to get me back to the airport.
Review 107:Sheets and towels seemed pretty old and funky smelling.Cigarette smoke was distracting but easy to ignore after a while. A/C didn't get cold enough despite being on highest level. I also asked for extra pillows but only got 2 in total.
Review 108:Garden was beautiful and gym was decently clean.The bed was pretty comfortable despite what I expected from the previous reviews. Hotel looked after you with complimentary toiletries and tea. Check in secretary was nice in that they made sure to note what time you would like to shuttle out to Narita. Looking at the cons, you get your money for what you get. Only good for in transit visitors.
Review 109:Bed hard
Review 110:Enough room for travel portacot with dim light options. Bus pick up from and to airport. Friendly staff and child friendly restaurant. Would stay again.
Review 111:A strange musty smell in the lobby and to a lesser degree elsewhere The hotel has a slightly dated appearance with some areas a little tatty and worn.
Review 112:Helpful staff. Good location
Review 113:The staff were not proactive in giving details (maybe its because they do not speak english that well). I didnt know there was a free shuttle to/from Aeon mall and had to spend for a cab.
Review 114:Convenient and close to airport
Review 115:Dirtiest hotel room i have stayed in, bathroom was disgraceful, mould in shower and slime and mould around taps, calcium on bath taps that could just be wiped off, rooms are old but that is no excuse for such poor cleaning, toilet flush handle was sticky and greasy, back of toilet filthy, everything you touch in there makes you feel dirty
Review 116:Shuttle to airport and staff organising shuttle very nice and helpful
Review 117:Small bed Dirty windows in room
Review 118:Free shuttle bus to and from airport Free shuttle to and from Aeon Mall Friendly staff Buffet breakfast, variety and tastiness Zen-like atmosphere outside, in the garden Gift shop with incidentals
Review 119:The rooms needs to be renovated especially the walls. Must have a better system for the buffet. When I arrived at the restaurant for dinner so advised I needed to wait for 45 minutes or a table due to the number of Chinese dining at the restaurant.
Review 120:located close to the airport; only ten minutes.
Review 121:Be careful when you catch the free bus especially in the evening! We were stuck at the shopping mall at 21:00 and there was no shuttle bus back to Narita Station, only to the hotel, with the last one being at 21:30. This can be fixed if you pay some extra money and catch the public transport from the Mall to Narita. Then you are good to stay in the town till 23:15 when is the last shuttle from Narita to the Hotel.
Review 122:The hotel is very close to Narita, just 15-20 minutes by bus. There is nothing around it, but there is free shuttle bus that can take you to the nearby shopping mall (23 min-30 min) or the town of Narita (15-20 min).
Review 123:First trip to Japan booked from home. Great hotel bit dated but everything we needed after a long flight. The garden in the hotel is superb I would recommend this hotel
Review 124:The room must have once been a "smoking room". The heavy double curtains had absorbed the smoke and thus, I had to sleep facing away from them. This was definitely not a "non smoking room" as requested. Disappointing!
Review 125:Free shuttle to and from airport and to narita shopping district.
Review 126:The hotel seems like an old ran-down 5*. It's clean and comfy but some refurbishment is needed. The shuttle bus is not really fast, took over 30 min to get from the airport to the hotel because it made some long stops on the way.
Review 127:This hotel is a good choice for avoiding to travel to the airport in the morning. It has a free shuttle.
Review 128:Old, worn furniture. Bathroom old and dirty. Mold on the tiles. I guess the dirtiest bathroom I have had ever in Japan.
Review 129:Just 10 minutes with complimentary shuttle bus from airport. Free wifi with reasonable speed. Comfortable wide bed in economy double room.
Review 130:My door card didn't work had to wait ages for someone to come up while trying to carry my luggage. Elevators took forever as well had to wait 15 minutes just to get down to the lobby. The best part being put in a smoking room when I requested non-smoking.
Review 131:I wished there were more scheduled shuttles to/from Narita Airport. Although WiFi is free at the lobby area, WiFi is charged when used in the rooms.
Review 132:The staff is courteous and there are free shuttles to the train station and the Aeon shopping center. Also the price is very affordable and the room was decent.
Review 133:I stayed on 9th floor, it was noisy at night as I could hear like a motor running.
Review 134:Free wifi, free shuttle service to airport, Aeon mall, JR Narita station near Omate-sandou and Shinshoji Temple.
Review 135:Went down for dinner but not enough space for us to sit so we end up order very expensive pizza. Shocking.
Review 136:Close to Narita airport and have free shattle bus.
Review 137:Over all were good. One thing I really like the hotel has extra door between bathroom and bedroom. This really help to keep the room quiet. We slept really well and didn't realize we had children residents next to us.
Review 138:No option on website of a non smoking room which meant it smelled pretty horrible and just seemed a bit dirty. Also hairs all over the bathroom.
Review 139:Close to the airport with a free shuttle bus. We just stayed the night before our early morning flight.
Review 140:The shuttle bus from Narita airport was convenient, but walking to restaurants or other stores was not so easy.
Review 141:The staff at the front desk was very helpful. The exercise room was also very nice. The exercise room was good size with a decent selection of equipment and some empty floor space for stretching and other exercises.
Review 142:nothing!
Review 143:- Shuttle Bus for free - timetable available on the booking.com site - close to the airport –we didn't hear any sounds from the aircraft - we had very big rooms with beautiful interior - breakfast was very delicious - next to the hotel there is an Italian restaurant - the service was very friendly - service in the hotel was obliging
