Hotel 1899 Tokyo

"Start from the top. What's this place all about?Hip, clean and compact, 1899 is a next generation of Tokyo hotel that was built for a new generation of traveler. Check-in feels more like a local coffee roaster than a lobby, with polished wood and wabi sabi accenting. The design was inspired by a traditional Japanese tea house, but it reflects a millennial audience: adventurous and on-the-go, with little need nor care for overindulgence. So is it a one-off little gem, or part of a chain?Ryumeikan is a century-old Japanese hotelier. But this property, a tea-themed boutique hotel, is quite unlike the rest. Everything from the toiletries in the room to the herbal experts in the cafe are centered around the hot drink and its place in Japanese culture. What can we expect from the rooms?Rooms at 1899 are quaint without being confined. The Superior Double measures about 215 square feet, which is plenty of room to unfold and spread your wings. Fixtures evoke traditional Japanese design: an engawa-style bench, paneling that recalls the tatami-mat styling of a washitsu room. Even the lamps riff on the tea theme, with a look that resembles the chasen whisk used in matcha-making. Tea aside, are there any good eats available on-site?Food's limited to DELI&BAR on the first floor, an on-the-go cafe with various tea-themed items, including matcha liver paste and tea-flavored sausages. There are also matcha-infused sweets, including gelato, waffles, and anmitsu. How's the service?Don't expect pampering—or even room service—but if you're looking for a reasonably priced stay and a consistent theme, this is a great option. Even more so if you're into tea; if you're really into it, ask one of the onsite tea sommeliers for hands-on demonstrations and tastings. And what can we expect from the other guests?They're typing away on their phones, planning a night out in Harajuku and Roppongi. How about the surrounding neighborhood—is there anything fun to do a bit closer to the hotel?Shimbashi is the salaryman capital of Tokyo; during the day, the neighborhood fills with suits and ties crowding into the metro lines. But the convenient location affords easy access to much of the rest of Tokyo, as well as Haneda airport, which is less than 30 minutes away by cab. Is there anything you'd change?We'd love to see more dining options and a lobby bar. What else should we know about this hotel before planning a stay?If you're going to stay in a tea-themed hotel, you might as well take advantage of the opportunity to, uh, soak it all in—so flag down one of those tea sommeliers. Bottom line: Worth it? Why?This is a well-priced option for travelers who don't expect to spend too much time at the hotel." - Brad Japhe

We stayed here twice and both times made a great experience here. The hotel is beautiful and modern - the rooms are small (not for a Tokyo standard) but cozy and don’t lack any feature you would want to have. ||They do not offer a baby bed but the room came equipped with other baby amenities such as a diaper bin and a barrier to pretend the baby from rolling out of the bad. They have a bath tub and a nice size bath. Everything is modern and accessible via tablet. ||Staff was very friendly and helpful. ||They even offer a matcha experience which was a special highlight and an absolute usp for the hotel which is overall strongly matcha themed - which I loved! ||The breakfast on the other hand for me was not a highlight and for me the worst of my stay. I do love small portions that are prepared fresh - but they lacked a little variety here especially for picky European eaters which I am not one of them - but my wife and kid.

This is a small boutique style hotel. I will say it’s at least a 10 minute walk from the nearest station so not the best for tourists who will likely have large luggage come the end of the trip or who want to jump on trains / metros to explore the city. I opted for the breakfast and I think it’s worth the money. The food was delicious, varied and served with a smile. Onto the rooms, the beds are VERY hard. For some this will fine but worth noting. Most things are included but there were no flannels/small towers in the bathroom. Another point to note is there is no ice machine but you can get a bucket of ice from the front desk

This tea-themed hotel was incredible! The ambiance was very calming and every facet of our stay was tailored to provide a unique and memorable experience. Even the room amenities, breakfast/dinner offerings, and lobby decor were tea-themed. Staff were very friendly and willing to go the extra mile to help us, including coordinating baggage shipping to our next hotel. We wouldn't want to stay anywhere else in Tokyo, Hotel 1899 set the bar high!

The rooms are smaller that you would expect. We stayed here for 4 nights before a 12 day cruise and we have much more space on the ship that we did at the hotel. Front desk people were great. The bed is traditional Japanese style so super hard and not comfortable for us but that's probably on us for being used to softer mattresses.

Great location, stylish and spotlessly clean The hotel is very conveniently located. The rooms are small but beautifully designed and exceptionally clean – truly impressive! The breakfast buffet was fresh and offered a nice variety. What stood out most was the friendliness of the staff – whether at check-in, breakfast, or check-out, everyone was warm and welcoming. Highly recommended!

Amazing, clean, bright and spacious hotel✨ Offering a lovely breakfast. There is also a cafe on the first floor serving brunch and lunch – their matcha is outstanding🧚 and I’ve only seen locals there – great quality for reasonable prices. The interior of the cafe is bright, airy and there are many seats to choose from.

From start to finish, a delightful experience. Upon arrival, we were pleasantly surprised with a thoughtful birthday gift. The room was exceptionally modern, with all controls conveniently managed via a tablet. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. The hotel's location was perfect, offering easy access to local attractions. Checking out was seamless and hassle-free, thanks to the tablet system. We would undoubtedly return for another stay!

Easily my favorite hotel in Tokyo. Rooms are typical Tokyo size but the room has a really nice tub which was a huge win. Comfortable for a couple and they offered bath bombs and other amenities to use the tubs. Conveniently located near the metro and many good food options around. Staff is superb & rooms are clean. Highly recommend

Very cute tea-centered hotel that's not too close to stations, in a quiet neighborhood with lovely interior design/amenities! This was our sixth and final hotel in Japan during a recent 2-week stay. This was surprisingly far from the nearest subway entrance for being located in Tokyo, and we ended up taking a couple taxi/Ubers since our feet were tired by this point in the trip! The ground floor is a cafe which had pretty limited hours, I think there were complimentary matcha/tea hours in the morning but I never personally saw them open... also I believe breakfast is down here and it seems like it was included in the past but it was an additional charge when I visited in June 2024! As for the room - very modern/high-tech and lovely! The entryway light had a motion-sensor and while there wasn't a ton of space (this is Tokyo after all), they managed to make the existing space feel roomy! The toilet/shower area was huge compared to the other hotels we visited, this may be partly due to the sink being in the main room area next to the desk/bed. I was pleasantly surprised by all the face/bath amenities available in a box next to the sink, as well as the snacks/fancy tea bags with the water heater and tea cups! Something else unique about this room was the tablet next to the bed - this had the alarm clock, useful links/Q&A, as well as extra controls for lighting. It definitely wasn't necessary but it felt like a fun detail that elevated the experience just enough! For the price, I would've expected a bit more of a central location, but overall I still had a great experience/relaxing experience here!

Matcha and green tea themed hotel with a matcha restaurant on the ground floor. Take the elevator to the second floor for check-in. Don't miss the complimentary different styles of matcha drinks served by the check-in area in as traditional a way that one can. I like the bamboo water ladle. The rooms are spacious for Japan big city standards and feature green tea toiletries. Even their light fixtures mimi the matcha frothing brush. It's located quite close to a lot of eating and drinking districts. Interesting craft breweries are a block away. Tamiya model store was a fun place to stop and look at, too.

A small Japanese tea house hotel that has the old Japanese traditional tea influence with the modern day meals that was set up in the dining area. The typical Japanese hospitality at the front desk seems to be the norm everywhere you go. The front desk clerks were very helpful in accommodating us. The room is small but we've stayed in smaller hotel rooms before so the accommodations were sufficient. The bed was firmer, but it was fine. The breakfast buffet was very good for the price. Easy location to walk to the train station.

This hotel is considered as a "tea hotel" and I can see it. The ambience is clean and has a modern tea feel. A lot of woody vibes which reminds me of the Muji Hotel. Service is great like any other service in Japan. It's close to Ginza which is one of my favorite cities so that's a plus! The reason why I scored them a 4/5 is for the following reasons: they offer free breakfasts however it's always the same so after three days in a row of the same breakfast items, it gets mundane. This is a small hotel so there are not many rooms available. I'm use to staying at more Americanized hotels so the room we had was too small for my liking. The bed is incredibly hard. My body was sore throughout the whole trip and this is coming from someone who frequently naps on the floor. If you're going there and looking for omiyage (gifts), I would highly recommend purchasing their matcha waffles and teas!

A bit out of the way, but very nice. Venue is new and the place shows it. A/C is new and works great. I upgraded to a Superior room and am enjoying it very much. A 10 minute walk from JR Shinbashi station. Rooms are not as big as Dai Ichi, but amenities are new and of the latest technology. The price is much better than the the big name hotels near Tokyo station. Very pleased.
