The mid-range Dormy Inn Premium Shibuya Jingumae hotel is in Tokyo's vibrant
Shibuya District, an eight-minute walk to the Meiji-Jingumae
subway station. The 136 guest rooms are spread over six stories, and rooms include flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges,
electric kettles, coffeemakers, and free Wi-Fi. But some rooms have small windows and are dark and cramped, and guests have complained about noise from the nearby railway line. Rates are
slightly higher than at comparable neighborhood hotels (such as the Hotel Sunroute Plaza Shinjuku), but there are
quite a few freebies on hand, such as a free breakfast that includes
a wide variety of Western and Japanese dishes, late-night ramen
noodles, tea and coffee throughout the day, use of a public bath,
and shuttle service to nearby subway stations.

Scene
Mid-range property with uncluttered, streamlined style
Dormy
Inn Premium Shibuya Jingumae is surrounded by other multi-story
buildings in a busy area of boutiques and restaurants. The large
lobby area has an understated elegance that's surprising in a mid-range hotel. The floors are covered in chic wood-block tiling, and the illuminated reception counter is decorated
with tiny mosaic tiles. The space is uncluttered, with only a
circular sofa and two armchairs for seating. A large flower
arrangement and a few potted plants add decorative touches. The hotel draws a wide range of travelers, including couples, solo
travelers, and those in town for work.
Location
An eight-minute walk from Meijijingu-Mae subway station
In
the immediate vicinity of the hotel are the many fashion boutiques,
restaurants and cafes of Shibuya, and the railway tracks of the
Yamanote line run just behind the hotel building. Meijijingu-Mae is
the closest subway station, an eight-minute walk away, but Shibuya
train and subway station is also accessible and just a few more
minutes' walk from here. Tourist attractions like Meiji Shrine and
Yoyogi Park are also located within walking distance.- Eight-minutewalk to Meijijingu-Mae Subway Station
Rooms
Small, clean rooms with flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, kettles, and coffeemakers
The 136 rooms at the Dormy Inn Premium Shibuya Jingumae include Singles, Doubles, and Twins, and range from 161 to
215 square feet. All are air-conditioned, and come with flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, mini-fridges, electric
kettles, coffee-pod machines, and air-purifiers. Some of the Twin Rooms have sofas. Irons and ironing boards are available on request,
and guests can choose from five different types of pillows. Bathrooms are tiny, and they have either shower cabins or small
Japanese-style bathtubs, with the bathroom sink located in the
entrance hallway. They include hairdryers, magnifying mirrors, and toiletries. Sliding doors separate the hallway from the
sleeping area. Decor is minimalist, with a
neutral color palette of tame browns, beiges, grays, and whites. Many
of the rooms have small windows and can seem dark as a result, and
some guests have complained of noise from the nearby railway line.
Double beds, at 55 inches wide, are a little narrow for two people -- a twin room may actually offer a couple more room.
Features
Free buffet breakfast, evening ramen noodles, public bath, and shuttle bus

evenings, it's free ramen noodles. Use of the heated
public bath, filled with “ultra soft water,” is also free to guests, and in-room massage treatments are available on request.
Guests can also use the washing machine at no extra charge -- and laundry
detergent is free as well -- but there's an extra charge for the dryer. The free
shuttle bus service takes guests to Shibuya and Meijijingu-Mae
stations. The hotel also has vending machines that sell drinks, an
ice machine, microwave, two computers connected to the Internet
in the lobby area, a photocopier, lockers, and a smoking room. DVD
