One of the worst check-ins in Japan, especially if you have a car and planning to come at night. We arrived at the hotel late, and asked the hotel staff about the parking. He gave us the instructions to enter the car park, we went in and because it was late, all the entrances were closed and we couldnt find a way to get out of the carpark. The car park was hot and big and there were literally no instructions to get out. We drove out (Paid to get out) and asked the hotel staff, and he accused us of not looking. There were literally no instructions. He finally took us and showed us the carpark exit (It was impossible to find underground). it was late and it took us 30 min to park and check in. So drivers and those who will arrive after the mall closing hours, beware.

The Sunshine City Prince Hotel is located about 9 minutes from the Ikebukuro Train Station. It's 45 years old. The rooms are small; the windows are small (including the highest 'view' floors). The bathrooms are elevated about 6-7 inches from the floor of the rest of the room, which is higher than most here. My wife tripped the first three times coming out of the bathroom. The air conditioner control only has Off and three air volume levels, with no temperature adjustment. The bed was the most comfortable one we experienced while there. The safe is very small. They provide two Nespresso capsules and two bottles of water daily. The check-in took more than 45 minutes starting at 3:30 on a Saturday/holiday weekend. The aided self-check in kiosks as well as reception took about 10 minutes per person as did checking in at reception. They charged a 200 yen per day tax in addition to what I'd paid Expedia. This transaction alone took about 5 minutes. The breakfast buffet can be purchased for 20,000 yen if purchased with the hotel room, or 30,000 in person. Don't bother. The food was mediocre at best, the selection small, and the dining facilities old and dated. The staff didn't keep up with refilling the coffee beans in the coffee machines, the pastries, most food items, or cleaning the tables. There is a single ice machine & laundry on Floor 6 where you can wash for 300 yen and dry for 100 yen. On the up side, the hotel has a Family Mart & mall access.

This hotel is very clean, and its facilities are great, especially the laundry room, which is very well ventilated, unlike many hotels' laundry rooms. Air conditioning is central air. So, you can blast more than what the room can provide. But it was cool enough for my stay. It's in Ikebukuro, which is a very lively and safe place, thus a lot of shops/restaurants around. The food quality is not like central Tokyo, but it's good enough. I would come back again.

We stayed on 29th floor in a triple room. It was a good size big enough for 3 people and had a nice view over the city. The room was clean. The staff were helpful. Direct access from hotel to Sunshine City mall where you can access the metro which is one stop away from main ikebukuro station. I would recommend accessing hotel via the sunshine city mall as this is easier to find. Also the airport bus stops directly outside the hotel so this is an added bonus to a nice stay. Lifts weren't an issue as there are 2 dedicated to the upper floors. Laundry facilities and family mart also available within the hotel. Would recommend this hotel and ikebukuro for a trip to Japan. Shinjuku and Shibuya are both accessible on train within 10 mins

Family friendly hotel & the huge plus is that the hotel is connected to a mall that has everything! Shopping/ restaurants/ gotcha/ overall great vibe. The hotel offers direct airport drop-off/ pick up via bus limousine. If you have kids, like me, this is the place! Most restaurants allow kids/strollers. Will definitely come back!

Good location mediocre food

Very convenient location for shopping and access to Narita Airport. There is a shuttle bus stop from/to Narita right in front of the hotel. However, it is bit of a walk from the JR Ikebukuro Station. I had two suitcases with two children. Should have just taken a taxi from the station. Without suitcases and small kids it shouldn’t be a problem. The hotel is literally connected to Ikebukuro Sunshine - great access to Pokemon Center, Aquarium etc. Hotel breakfast is at best mediocre. I’ll probably stay again if I were flying out of Narita but probably not including the breakfast option.

Worth A Stay

We were initially concerned that it was to far from the sights we wished to take in, but this proved not to be the case. The Metro was a short walk from the hotel. The shopping facilities in The Sunshine City Mall were incredible. The staff were attentive and always willing to help. The room, although a little different by European standards was large and adequate, but there were not any drawers for storage and no cupboards. The view from the Panorama Room was awesome.
