K5

This hotel is everything I look for when I travel. Staff are the most friendly you’ll find, they are the most polite and approachable people you can wish for. I felt so welcomed everyday when I got to the hotel. I can’t thank enough their genuine attention to our experience, they’ve made it so special and we will always stay here moving forward when going to Tokyo. For Tokyo the rooms are spacious and very design oriented, stylish and modern. The room was impeccably clean and tidy. When we arrived there were so many details that showed they have researched our preferences and that make it massively special. We can’t recommend enough this place. A big thank you to all their team that made our trip around the world so memorable.

If only all hotels were like K5 ! From the very friendly and helpful staff to the comfort and atmosphere of the room, from the design of the different areas to the services and facilities, everything was beyond reproach. The welcome drink, the turntable in the room, the quality coffee and the whole vibe made for two superb nights. I really liked the layout of the room, which was spacious with high ceilings, large windows, very pleasant dimmable lighting, the small desk hidden behind the bed and the well thought-out storage areas. Last but not least, lots of nice places are located close to the hotel for which we received a bunch of vouchers to use for discounts. I hope I could stay longer the next time I travel to Tokyo !

One of the most beautiful hotels/boutique hotels I have ever seen and stayed in. The light, the bed, the atmosphere from the entrance to the room, everything is so quiet and well-designed. Congrats Kuma-San. It brings tranquility and maximizes the use of space. The staff is very friendly, nice, and helpful, and their English is perfect. I love everything. I will definitely come back here for my next Tokyo visit.

My partner and I travel to Japan often, and K5 has quickly become one of our favourite places to stay. After falling in love with it last year, we couldn’t resist returning again this year—and it did not disappoint. One of the things we love most about K5 is its location. Situated in Nihonbashi Kabutocho, the hotel offers a perfect balance between tranquility and convenience. The area is quaint and quiet, making it ideal for restful evenings, yet there are fantastic restaurants, bars, and bakeries all within walking distance. Additionally, there are several metro stations lines nearby, allowing easy access to the rest of Tokyo. The service and hospitality at K5 are absolutely exquisite. From the moment you arrive, the staff greets you with warmth, professionalism, and genuine care. They go out of their way to ensure every part of your stay is seamless, from thoughtful recommendations to personal touches that elevate your experience. Whether assisting with luggage or offering insights on local spots, their attention to detail makes you feel completely at home. The design of K5 is another standout feature. Both the hotel and its rooms are breathtakingly beautiful, combining unique character with timeless elegance. The rooms feel cozy yet luxurious, inviting you to linger in bed with a coffee or relax on the couch with a drink in hand. Every element of the design feels intentional, creating spaces that are as comfortable as they are stunning. If you’re planning a stay in Tokyo, K5 should be at the very top of your list. Whether it’s your first visit or a return trip like ours, this hotel offers a perfect retreat in the heart of the city.

I definitely love this hotel, it’s one of my favorite boutique hotels after my journey of collecting unique and delicates hotels during the traveling these years. The location is appreciated as it stayed in this historical banking area, the design has perfectly mixed the clean and neat Scandinavian style and yet you can tell the traditional Japanese culture. The most surprising part is there is no TV set in the room but vinyl record player provided instead and I missed no TV surrounded during the whole stay. Even though everything looks so perfect that unfortunately a dog doll from the Japanese artist, Yoshitomo Nara, which I just got it 2 days ago mysteriously missed during my stay with this hotel. It’s remember that it’s on my bed before I leaved for city walk, but it’s just missed after we return to our room. Though the staff responded that it can’t be found after they check with the cleaning company and give me some souvenirs as the compensation, it’s still quite shocking that a doll (not mini tiny one) could just vanished like that and the staffs say nothing about seeing my friend rushing bought me a new one (such as compensate the cost)… (it happened at the last night we stay and we need to go to airport the next day). Truly unfortunate and disappointed, wish no one will have the same situation as me considering this is really a stylish hotel.

Our favorite hotel on a 3 week Japan trip We stayed in both the studio and a larger room and loved both. Everything was high quality and so comfortable. We ate breakfast at Caveman a couple times and it was epic. The coffee shop in the hotel is also epic. Maybe the best coffee ever. We also went to Bank Bakery a couple times. It’s around few minutes walk from the hotel. You can use the food vouchers the hotel provides there or the hotel can order in for you on a more limited menu. We found the location of the hotel really convenient because it was close to a transportation hub, but not a main station so it was both convenient without being overwhelming. Tokyo is massive so no matter where you stay you’re going to have to get the train or a taxi. After exploring all the neighborhoods, I really liked that it was off the beaten path and away from the huge crowds in the other neighborhoods

Stayed in a K5 room for one night and was very impressed with the room - really stylish and much larger than other Tokyo rooms. The room itself was well appointed with very comfortable bed, excellent bathroom and really nice touches including record player. Very pleased (and surprised!) to see a reasonably priced and chilled red burgundy in the minibar which was delicious! The service from start to finish was excellent - very kind, helpful and efficient. Great that there is a coffee bar, wine bar, restaurant and cocktail bar on the premises but note, they are different organisations. Here’s the kicker - K5 is pricing itself as a luxury 5 star hotel in Tokyo and having just stayed at the Mandarin Oriental, it simply isn’t comparable. We had an unexpected extra night in Tokyo and managed to get a decent rate for K5 circa £350/night but it was £540 the week before for a smaller room. As such, this review is 5 stars as we secured a fair price for it - I’d have been sorely disappointed paying above £500. Other small points - breakfast isn’t served till 8am and nor is the coffee open till then - this isn’t ideal for a fast moving tourist city like Tokyo. 7am would be expected in my opinion. Great to also have the additional venues as referenced above but I agree with previous reviews, it really needs its own lounge for guests but for one night this didn’t bother me at all.

K5 was an amazing, stylish and welcoming hotel. We absolutely loved it. The location is a little bit quieter than the main tourist districts but we didn’t mind that because the hotel was so nice, the staff were so great and ultimately you are a few minutes away from two metro stations. The design is phenomenal and the cocktail bar and brewery are excellent bonuses. As was the record player in the room! Staff were great and made our stay very enjoyable. Highly recommend!!!
