Your Hotel Unnie | Senkei Plaza, Hakone

 


This is the place we stayed at in Hakone. I would say that this is a budget friendly option. But I'm still here to tell you what to expect. 


Check in time is 3 pm like some other places. 



The beds are comfortable enough. They provide you with yukatas that you can use to sleep or to go to the onsens. 



They have complimentary teas. 


One thing I didn't like is that the bidet, although present is not working. The bathroom door is also very clanky that you can't probably do your business in peace. 


Name: Senkei Plaza
Place: Hakone
Nearest Station: Hakone-Yumoto Station
When: March 7 - March 8 2024 
Estimate Price: 11 ,156 YEN ~ 
Pros: There is a decent indoor bath and outdoor bath. The room is clean.
Cons: There is only one outdoor bath and is shared by man and woman depending on the time. There is no elevator! We had to go up the stairs every time.

Yomiuri Land 12/24/2021

My sister and I went a day before Christmas which is one of the worst days to go probably because Japanese don’t usually celebrate the Christmas season with family. It’s more with friends so they tend to flock amusement parks and such. 


I think this trip was my first time riding this thing. I have been to Yomiuri land maybe 3 times? And yeah this ride was interesting. We didn’t get wet but I have seen others who were not so lucky. 


They had turkey leg which

This Kare rice is so cheap! I also ordered a mocktail which is not bad! If I remember correctly, this Kare rice is under 1000 yen which is rare given that it is inside an amusement park.  













That's all guys! I really had fun celebrating Christmas Eve with my sister!

Your Hotel Unnie | Susukinohara Ichinoyu, Hakone

This is the entrance of the vacation house. The place is called Susukinohara Ichinoyu in Hakone. 



Right by the reception area, you can find this place where you can take disposable items like hairbrush, toothbrush, and the like. You can also get your own Yukata to use. 


The entrance


The place is near a bus stop and is near a convenience store so you don't have to worry if you want late night snacking. 


There is a private onsen with spectacular view. 


The futon on the tatami is surprisingly comfortable. It is also heated so don't you worry. I guess it will also be cooled down during the summer. 


Complimentary teas and tangerines from a local farmer.


I loved the scallop the most. We included dinner and breakfast in our booking and it was so worth it. You can choose time to come to the hall. 




Pictures above are that of dinner. Those below is breakfast. Same as dinner, you can choose what time works for you.





The breakfast is also very filling. 







The vacation house have a total of four baths. Two for the women and two for gentlemen. What's interesting is that they switch it up at some point so yeah, I was able to enjoy 4 baths! They are basically the same, but still! A little different. The main point is that there is an alkaline bath indoor bath and an open air acidic bath. I really enjoyed my stay here. I have no complaint other than the small shower space beside the private bath. 

Name: Susukinohara Ichinoyu
Place: Hakone
Nearest Station: Daigatake Bus Stop
When: December 17 -December 18 2023
Estimate Price: 51 ,000 YEN ~ 
Pros: The rooms are nice enough. The food is delicious. The baths are relaxing. There is a private pool.
Cons: The shower inside the room is in an open air and small.

Your Hotel Unnie | Hilton Narita



Hilton Narita at night. 


I went here because my sister flew to Japan and this time, it's at Narita so this is one of the hotels they are affiliated to I guess. 



There is a shuttle bus from the airport that you can take for free.

Elevator


I'm not very knowledgable with hotels yet but I don't like the odd shape of Hilton Narita. The odd shape isn't much of the problem but it's kind of narrow. 



Nothing much for the hotel free stuff. Just the normal ones you'd get at other places. 


The place is clean thankfully. 

Room is small but comfy :) I'm sure they have bigger rooms but yeah it feels kind of condensed.



Name: Hilton Narita
Place: Narita
Nearest Station: Narita Airport Terminal
When: October 3 2023 - October 4 2023
Estimate Price: 12,113 YEN ~ 
Pros: The rooms are nice enough.

Your Hotel Unnie | Grand Nikko Tokyo Daiba
Myself and sis 

My sister is an airline crew and on her flight to Japan, she got to stay at Grand Nikko Tokyo in Odaiba. 


This is what the hotel looks like at night


The lobby. I honestly don't understand the center piece but it's nice enough. 

sunset

The view is to die for! This is actually my second time here and I guess I would never get tired of it because of this view alone. 


Morning view


I also love their bath stuff! This is fancy. 



The bath tub. Big enough! Although I haven't used this on my two trips here. 



Room here starts at 13.6K yen on Agoda and it goes up to 26K depending on how soon you want the room or what day of the week it is. The room is really clean and nice. It looks very new as it is said on their website that is renovated.

I don't know why I have so many elevator pictures but it is what it is. 


Also, instead of the Yukata, they provide you with pajamas. Interesting. 



Name: Grand Nikko Tokyo 
Place: Odaiba
Nearest Station: Daiba Station/Tokyo Teleport Station Station
When: September 16-September 17 2023
Price: 13.6 YEN ~ 
Pros: What I like about this hotel is that it is near everything! There is a station right outside the hotel.
Cons: The outdoor pool is not free! 

I don't actually know if the indoor pool is free for every guest but my sister and I was able to enjoy it for free. I don't know if they will charge the airline or what but yeah. The pool is very nice! There is a three lap pool, hot bath, jet bath and mist sauna. Inside the locker/dressing room, there is a hot and cold  bath and your traditional wood sauna which is probably my favorite part!
