The hotel is literally just around the corner from all the great shops on Ginza´s Chuo dori. Metro station Higashi Ginza with Asakusa and Hibiya Line is a 1-2 minutes walk, Ginza Station with Marunouchi and Ginza Line 5 min. To / From Narita airport, I used Airport Limousine bus that stops at Courtyard by Marriot Ginza Hotel, 200 - 300 metres street up from Tokyu Stay Ginza Hotel. Kabuki-za theatre is just across the street (3 min.), a main Japan Post office with ATM and money exchange (6 min. walk), Tsukij fish market 15 minutes.
The rooms are small - and that saying I already had my booking changed from a standard to a superior room. Everything is clean and new, a very comfortable Queen size bed - perfect for a 8-days stay. I also liked (and used) the microwave, wash-dryer and small fridge very much. Very quiet.
If you prefer a continental breakfast with bread, butter, jam, real Muesli and joghurt I would strongly recommend not to book breakfast at the hotel. Though coffee and juices are very good, the focus clearly seems to be on Japanese style breakfast with rice, soup, salad, Spaghetti etc, and some american style breakfast with sausages, meat balls and squidgy scrambled eggs. The continental part consisted of small white rolls (more or less dry), 3 kinds of jam and honey - the same every day. I couldn´t eat it anymore after 3 days and bought myself some bread, cheese etc at the food floor at Matsuya Department Store on Chuo dori.
I will come back for sure!
