Can You Really Stay in Tokyo for $55? 🌸 Akasaka Station 1 Min · Night Sakura & Hie Shrine Walk
【1-min walk from Akasaka Station Exit 7】Honest review of Sotetsu Fresa Inn Tokyo Akasaka — 1 night for just ¥8,800 ($55)! 🌸
My stay at Sotetsu Fresa Inn Tokyo Akasaka, located steps from Exit 7 of Akasaka Station on the Chiyoda Line. A Standard Double room came to ¥8,800 ($55) — exceptional value for a stay in such a central Tokyo location.
The room is a compact 14 m², but everything is carefully thought out: a 160 cm Simmons bed, a whole-building water purification system (drink straight from the tap!), and a surprisingly well-stocked self-service amenity corner. Other highlights include the hotel’s genuine SDGs commitment, a directly connected breakfast café (Uchima Coffee), and a robot-operated Chinese restaurant next door.
The weather wasn’t cooperating on check-in day, so I also made a separate visit to Akasaka Sanno Hie Shrine — finally collecting my goshuin seal at the newly completed shrine office. In the evening, I caught the beautiful spring illumination at Akasaka Sacas. With Tameike Sanno and Akasaka-Mitsuke stations also within walking distance, this hotel makes an ideal base for exploring central Tokyo.

Hi everyone! Thanks for watching! 🇯🇵 Sotetsu Fresa Inn Akasaka is one of the best-located hotels in Tokyo — 1 min from Akasaka Station, with cherry blossoms at Akasaka Sacas and the powerful Hie Shrine both within walking distance. Hope this helps your Japan trip planning!

こんばん撮影お疲れ様です。相鉄フレッサイン 久々の登場ですね(笑)
以前 有明の相鉄フレッサインの動画をUPしていただきましたが それ以来ですね。
赤坂という好立地もよいですが 4:48 紙コップの自販機 久々にみました。紙コップの自販機って ほとんど見かけないです。
18:06 ロボットが料理する。ドラえもんの世界でやってたことが 身近にあるとは…(笑)
実は SUKIYAKI TRAVEさんの動画ですが 実家の両親も拝聴しております。動画を見て 気づいたことがあったらしく 以下にまとめました。
・コインランドリーの混雑状況が部屋のテレビで分かるのは有り難い
・ホテルによっては 食事提供がない所もあるので 近隣のカフェ等で 食べるという 意外性
・朝食のビュッフェが 豪華で美味しそう(笑)
長文失礼しました。
日本人喜歡吃麻婆豆腐?超市常見料理包的冷藏麻婆豆腐
家庭入住?
有4人房?
I've stayed 3 times at the same brand hotel but in Hingashi-Shinjuku. Great location and very comfortable. Is right next to the subway and is easy walk into central Shinjuku. Worth checking out.
日本的櫻花真的美~
而且都會長好長滿~滿開櫻花花瓣飄落很有氛圍~
雖然開始長綠葉了..但這種粉還是很美的
飯店還有提供泡澡粉很讚~這家提供的備品真多~
beautiful hotel and tokyo tanks for video!😊
