If your criteria for finding accommodation in Tokyo are: no shared rooms, a budget of around 1,000 baht per night per person, close to a train station, and close to convenience stores and restaurants, then the 'Best Western Tokyo Nishikasai Grande' is another hotel in Japan that truly meets your needs and offers excellent value for money.


For our recent trip to Japan, my mother and I sought accommodations that were both **'convenient' and 'budget-friendly'**. We wanted to avoid cramped hostels with shared bathrooms, and we were wary of booking Airbnbs due to the risk of last-minute cancellations, as some of our friends had experienced.

For our stay in Tokyo, we opted for the **'Best Western Tokyo Nishikasai Grande'**.



The primary factor influencing our decision to stay at this hotel was its affiliation with the **internationally renowned Best Western brand**. We have had positive experiences at other Best Western locations and trust the brand's consistent standards. Additionally, the hotel's convenient location near the train station, spacious rooms, complimentary Wi-Fi, and abundance of nearby convenience stores and restaurants further enhanced its appeal.


Traveling from Narita Airport to the Best Western Tokyo Nishikasai Grande hotel is a breeze. We opted for the Keisei Narita Sky Express train, which conveniently takes you to Nihombashi Station.

From Nihombashi Station, transfer to the Tozai Line subway and **get off at Nishi-Kasai Station. The hotel is a 5-minute walk from the station.** You can refer to the attached picture for directions.


Traveling to tourist destinations is convenient with the Tokyo subway. The stations are just a short walk away, and even late at night, the well-lit walkways lined with shops make it a safe and enjoyable experience.


Upon entering the hotel, guests are greeted by a welcoming lobby and attentive staff. Complimentary refreshments, including bottled water, chilled towels, and candies, are available in the lobby area.



The hotel has a total of 8 floors. Our room is on the 4th floor, which is easily accessible by elevator (I have encountered some small hotels in Japan that do not have elevators, so we had to walk up the stairs, which was tiring).

On the 7th floor of the hotel, there is a free ice dispenser and a coin-operated water dispenser. There are also coin-operated water dispensers on the 7th and 3rd floors.

In addition, there is a coin-operated washing machine on the 2nd floor, which is convenient for those who are traveling with a limited amount of clothing.


We stayed in a Superior Twin Room, which was 18 square meters in size. This is considered a standard size for hotels in Japan. The price was around 2,000-3,000 baht per night (depending on the time of year). The room had strong Wi-Fi, which was free to use.

The room is equipped with a coffee maker and an electric kettle. Instant noodle lovers, rejoice!

This room comes with twin beds, which are two separate beds. If you prefer a king-size bed, there is also that option available. (If the king-size bed rooms are fully booked, you can always push the twin beds together.)



The bedside features a control panel for all the lights in the room, as well as charging ports for added convenience.




One of the things we loved most was the abundance of charging ports, perfect for those of us with multiple gadgets. Below are the power outlets located at the bedside table in front of the TV.



The bathroom has both a bathtub and a shower. You can adjust the water temperature to your liking, whether you want a hot or warm bath. The toilet seat is also heated, which is something we really like. We would love to have this in our own home!


Amenities: Fully equipped bathroom with comb, toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo, soap, towels, hairdryer, etc. Everything you need for a comfortable stay.


The hangers are here, the slippers are here, and even the shoe brushes are here, my dear viewers!


If you book a room with breakfast included, you will receive breakfast coupons. Enjoy your breakfast before heading out for your adventures. If I remember correctly, breakfast is served from 6:30 AM to 9:00 AM.

The breakfast buffet is not extensive, offering beverages such as orange juice, tea, coffee, and fresh milk. However, the food is delicious and filling, providing a good start to the day.



The breakfast buffet here is not extravagant and does not offer as many options as hotels in Thailand. The selection leans towards Japanese cuisine, with Japanese rice, seaweed, rice toppings, and miso soup. However, there are also boiled eggs, vegetable salad, fruits, and yogurt available.

No text provided for translation.

The buffet also offers a variety of other options, including hash browns, omelets, steamed mackerel, and baked tomatoes with cheese. Additionally, there are sweet eggs, ham, sausages, bacon, various cereals, croissants, and bread.




Next to the dining room, there are computers and printers available for use. If you need to print tickets or anything urgently, please feel free to use them.

Evening ambiance at the hotel.



On the way from the hotel to the Subway, there were many restaurants to choose from. We tried two grilled meat restaurants, which were amazing! I'll share more details in my food review Vlog later.



Located near the train station, Metro Center is a great place to grab a bite to eat. With a variety of restaurants to choose from, including sushi, grilled meat, ramen, and rice bowls, you're sure to find something to satisfy your hunger.
