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~

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.

Via Expedia, it states that a fitness center is included with this property. If you filter “fitness center”, the B Ikebukuro will show. However, it’s like $20 USD, per visit to the fitness center. Not, per day, but per visit. This is extremely misleading and is why we booked this hotel. I will not spend $100+ to use a gym for a few days. Also, the carpets in the room hallways are dirty, and the place has an odor. Great location for transit and downtown Ikebukuro, but the hotel was not worth hundreds and hundreds of dollars.

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.

Convenient, close to a family mart AND 7-11. Ikebukuro station is a short walk, and there are so many restaurants and things to do. The staff is friendly and the gym is amazing (not included in the hotel price) The room itself is a little small but it is clean, and if you get a room on a higher floor, you’ll love the view.

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.

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.
