We enjoyed the GAJOEN and would recommend it with caveats since it was a bit different than expected. For the price, you can find something else that feel more modern and high end.
Pros
- HUGE room
- Great shower and stream room, plus two bathrooms and generous towels
- Clean room
- thoughtfulness for our honeymoon - leaving some chocolates in the room
- helpful front desk staff
Cons
- Huge lobby that makes the entire hotel feel larger and busier than we expected. Having stayed at other "small luxury hotel" hotels, this felt quite different. Also meant a long walk to exit the hotel.
- Close to the train, but requires a STEEP uphill walk, so you need to take a shuttle to the train station
- Few walkable things to do nearby - need to take train to Shibuya main area for the most part
- Sheets are scratchy
Other
- Traditional vibe - less modern than other options. Can likely find something more posh at this price point.
