Ochanomizu Ryumeikan Main Store! Tokyo's century-old hidden luxury with unbeatable value


At check-in, the front desk's English wasn't very good, which was a bit frustrating.
But after seeing the room, all that frustration disappeared.
What’s there to be upset about when you have a nearly 60-square-meter room in Tokyo!
Near the Imperial Palace, yes, another hotel with a century of history.
The current version was renovated in 2014.
There are only nine rooms in total, very quiet, and the transportation is extremely convenient.

It costs less than 200 yen by taxi from Shinjuku, and Tokyo Station is even closer.
On the way here, we passed a street full of bookstores.
Although in the world of Japan, we are two uncultured people,
the DNA of two young women who love reading was definitely stirred.

A simple water bar, and I really liked every piece of equipment there.
Among them, the little snacks were so delicious that I brought them all the way home and ate a little every day.
Now, looking at the empty jar, I feel lonely and sad.
I even tried to find the financial report of this snack company but still couldn’t find where to buy another jar.
The huge Shigaraki ware bathtub, even if it’s not hot spring water, soaking in it is still very enjoyable.
(After soaking in hot springs for several days, I’ve become picky about baths; people are easily spoiled.)

The Tokyo auntie needed help bringing things back to the mainland, and they were quietly delivered to the door with a cute note (so is their front desk English good or not?).

After six days of Japanese food, I really couldn’t eat another bite.
Usually, breakfast is delivered to the room at 8:00 AM,
but since we had to leave for the airport at 7:40, they sent us a simplified breakfast early.
A plain avocado and salmon sandwich,
so delicious it made me cry.
The food this hotel gives is mysteriously delicious.

At 9:30, the lounge usage rate was 80%, but by 10:00, almost everyone had disappeared.
What kind of magical spell is this? So, are there no flights at noon?

We arrived at night and left in the rain.
I thought about taking one last look at Mt. Fuji from the plane but gave up.
Had a good sleep and arrived in Shenzhen.
I went home, and Li Lu went to the office.
She asked if I wanted a ride to the office.
I said, "You do your hard work; my office closes early."
Hehe 😁
