When it comes to hotel stays, a convenient location is often at the top of the requirement list. Akasaka’s Hotel Hillarys (formerly Hotel Felice) delivers this, and is situated less than five minutes walk from three different subway stations.

The rooms themselves are extremely modern, with chic decor and stylish design elements. As is often the case in Tokyo, the rooms aren’t the biggest, but they optimize space in clever ways, including the use of mirrors to make the rooms feel large and open. The rooms are also equipped with a touch screen information device that gives details about hotel amenities and services, including the option for delivery of your luggage directly to the airport if required. You’ll also find all the creature comforts you’ll need to make your stay a pleasant one, including free toiletries, a strong Wi-Fi connection (and comfy desk!), and in-room tea making facilities. Free coffee is available in the lobby.

On the 9th floor of the hotel you’ll find a public bath facility. In-room baths and showers are standard, however, if you’d like to relax in a larger space the public bath is the perfect spot for this. You’ll get an additional swipe card when you check in which provides access to the communal bathing area - just be sure to bring the towel from your room with you, as there are no towels by the bath area itself.

The hotel has an on-site restaurant where you can opt for a buffet breakfast if you wish, however there are several convenience stores within a matter of minutes away on foot. The streets surrounding the hotel are also packed with lively restaurants, cafes and bars.

Getting there

Hotel Hillarys is conveniently located within a short walk from several Tokyo Metro Subway Stations - just three minutes on foot from Akasaka Station, four minutes from Akasaka-Mitsuke Station, and five minutes from Tameike-Sanno Station.
