Pretty good location but the property was aging a bit. Great for kids with the bunk beds but kinda odd that we had to make our own bed and the sheets didn't fit right on the bottom bunk. The room was pretty smelly when we first got there and i hunted where it was coming from and it seems the room air filter had never been changed and was completely caked in stinky dust. As soon as i turned it off the room smelt much better. Also the bathroom had mildew on the ceiling. It was really nice to have in-suite laundry and as a family we used that multiple times over the week.

We had a wonderful stay at Grand Monday Ginza. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and in a great location for exploring Tokyo. What truly made the stay special was the staff—they were welcoming, professional, and always willing to help with anything we needed. Their kindness and attention to detail made us feel very well taken care of. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend Grand Monday Ginza to anyone visiting Tokyo. Thank you to the entire team for making our trip even better!
