International Garden Hotel Narita

I always try to book this hotel when I visit Japan for a couple of days after I arrive in Japan and a couple of days before going back to Europe. Their all the staffs(front desk, cleaning people, the restaurant staffs, even the convenience store staffs) are always very kind, very helpful and smiling. I feel very welcomed and relaxed in this hotel. I would like to stay again there for the next time.

This hotel if very convenient for Narita airport. Our flight was in the early morning so we opted to stay nearby the night before. The hotel operates a very convenient free shuttle bus both from the train station when we arrived and to the airport when we left. The hotel's own dining facilities are a bit primitive (the most unappetising breakfast buffet I've ever seen), but the shuttle bus took us into Narita town in the afternoon, where there is a big choice of restaurants. We were also lucky enough to be there when there was a fair going on, so there was a big and jolly local crowd which made for a very enjoyable last evening in Japan. There is also a very large temple which looked worth a visit (though we arrived too late to be able to do this). Staying so close to the airport the night before our flight made the day of our departure largely stress free. We ended up going to the airport quite early, largely because the breakfast offering at the hotel was poor, but it was great to be able to use the shuttle bus.

I could walk everywhere I wanted to go. I walked to a couple of restaurants, the mall, and even an onsen. Bear in mind, some were 30+ minute walks. The hotel is nice, breakfast was included, and I only paid $60cdn per night! A small 7-11 is in the lobby and a larger convenience store is just off the parking lot. Free shuttle to the airport, mall, and JR station. Naritasan Park is a must, 25 minute walk.

Airport shuttle bus driver was very nice and shuttle bus directions were clear and precise. The bus is a large coach so there is ample space underneath for luggage. The hotel offered a discount (you have to ask) for the dinner buffet for those staying overnight and that buffet was quite good. The food was good but not great. In particular the restaurant is supposedly an Italian Japanese fusion restaurant but the Italian dishes are disappointing. The salad is good though. The rooms are small especially the triple rooms that have an extra 'rollaway' style bed in them. My wife and I perhaps should have asked if they could remove the 3rd bed. The beds themselves were comfortable and shower was good. Breakfast buffet was also good although an egg station would have been nice.

This hotel is conveniently located near Narita Airport and offers a free shuttle service that runs almost every hour with excellent punctuality. Both the interior and exterior of the hotel are beautifully maintained, adding to the pleasant atmosphere. A convenience store (konbini) inside the hotel provides easy access to snacks, souvenirs, and essentials. Additionally, Muslim-friendly restaurants are available inside the airport, which can be reached via the shuttle. While the train station is a bit far and not easily accessible on foot, the hotel staff are happy to assist in calling a taxi upon request. The room was very spacious and well-equipped with robes, slippers, and other essential amenities. We particularly appreciated the strong shower water pressure and the bidet toilet, which enhanced hygiene and comfort. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, always greeting us warmly and assisting with any inquiries. Overall, we had a wonderful stay, creating another cherished memory of our time in Japan.
