Shining Solo
The definitive place to stay if you like peace and quiet yet want easy access to everything. Even though it’s in Yokohama I was able to arrive conveniently and comfortable directly with the Narita Express train.
It’s a short walk from Yokohama station. On the way there’s many stores and unique restaurants to visit. Convenience store nearby is conveniently open at all hours.
Hotel breakfast is fashionable and filling. There’s a salad, bread and drink bar in addition to the set breakfast you can choose from. I was there four days and had a wonderful different breakfast experience each time.
Since I’m by myself and don’t have a lot of luggage, the single room I booked didn’t feel cramped at all. I appreciate that there’s a separate sitting area away from the bed so you can enjoy your late night snacks and drink after a nice warm bath. The baths can easily be accessed through the basement and there are refreshing ice cream and cold drinks just right by the elevators.
The staff both in the front desk and in the restaurant is kind and can speak well in English, so don’t be intimidated if you need something to make your own stay more pleasant.
Since the hotel is conveniently near the station, even though it was all the way in Yokohama, I was able to quickly make trips to popular Tokyo tourists spots like Shibuya and Asakusa.
Overall it was a great solo trip experience and would recommend anyone to try travelling alone at least once.
