Porta Inn Bentencho

We stayed here with friends after a day at Universal Studios Japan. Getting there by train requires one transfer, but it’s very close to Bentencho Station and takes about 10 minutes in total. Our five-person Room was in the separate annex next door. When we first entered, we were surprised by how spacious it was all the way to the back. The entire Room was very clean and well maintained. The large bathroom had a drum-type washing machine and a ReFa shower, plus a big mirror and two sinks. There was also a SALONIA hair dryer, a straightener, and a curling iron, so we had everything we needed and felt very comfortable throughout our stay. We could watch YouTube on the large TV, and relaxing on the sofa made it even better. There were three beds, plus one queen bed in the Japanese-style room, and all of them were very comfortable. There were two separate areas to hang clothes on hangers, so everyone could use them without holding back. The Room also had four heaters in total, so it never felt cold no matter where we were. Also, there’s a 7-Eleven right below the Hotel, which made shopping easy anytime. I made the Reservation myself, and it was such a great Hotel that all my friends thanked me for choosing it. Most of all, I’m happy that everyone had such a fun time with smiles on their faces. Thank you for having us—we’d love to stay again.

Maybe it was just by chance when we stayed, but both the front desk and housekeeping staff were Japanese, which was reassuring.It had been years since I last got off at Bentencho Station, but the area is much cleaner than before, and the Hotel is close by—so even at night, I felt safe walking there as a woman.The Hotel itself was clean and great value for money. I’d definitely like to stay again.
