Stayed in Tokyo for a five day holiday, and the Granbell Hotel was excellent. The staff were very friendly, hospitable and the place - albeit small - was great. Design, layout everything. It's a really cool hotel. My only complaints - minor - are that there is no wifi in the rooms (which meant everyone would hover around the lobby... More

After living in Tokyo for a year in the Meguro/Ebisu/Daikanyama area. Now when going back for work and holiday I want to stay in a hotel close to these areas but not in Shibuya. Granbell has a perfect location in Sakuragaoka (nice part of shibuya) close distance to most points of interests in Tokyo. Rooms are small (stayed in both... More

I have stayed at Granbell in Shibuya maybe 10 times. It has become one of my favorite places to stay in my favorite city, Tokyo. Location is great - especially if you like to go to Daikanyama and Aoyama. Both places are in walking distance of the hotel. I can recommend the bath view suit. That's where I normally stay.... More

I stayed here in October 2011 upon the recommendation of a friend and thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The room was small but comfortable, and comes complete with all toiletries necessary, including my favourite-a bath sponge! It's trendy and the location is perfect, just a stone's throw from Shibuya station. I'll definitely be back the next time I find myself in... More

This was a last minute booking for me - and thanks to QANTAS, was slightly longer than planned - and that was a real bonus. Staff were extraordinarily helpful & fun! - have stayed at 5 star hotels on business but this is now my preference. Great spot - and I was lucky enough to be upgraded to a loft... More

It is true, the Granbell is quite a trendy little hotel - especially for the price. And the price is a key thing here. Tokyo hotels are incredibly expensive, as everyone knows. But for $150 a night, the Granbell is worth every bit. The breakfast downstairs leaves a lot to be desired but there are plenty of restaurants close by... More

This hotel is just the best location you could possibly ask for. Obviously this depends on what you're visiting Tokyo for, but it is the shortest walk to JR Shibuya station / Shibuya crossing, 1 stop from Harajuku, 2 stops from Shinjuku, and on the same subway line to visit Ueno park and other cool stuff. All hail the Yamanote... More

Stayed there for a week in their premier suite - There's a staircase that takes you to the actual room once you enter the door. Small room but rather cozy. Simple service like housekeeping before 14:00, no room service, but very friendly & helpful front desk staff. More

As a first timer to Tokyo, I was a little nervous about navigating my way to the hotel but it couldn't have been easier, especially with the helpful staff sending me directions and pictures. The narita express goes straight to Shibuya, which is right in the centre of all Tokyo action. You really could not get a better location, we... More
