October 2022: Please note Hotel Park Side has now permanently closed. Please see our Ueno page for other places to stay in this district.
The Hotel Park Side Ueno is a decent business hotel with budget to moderate rates in a convenient location in Ueno.
If you don’t mind being based up in Ueno, this hotel is a decent economical choice. It’s located next to Shinobazu Pond, within easy walking distance of both JR Ueno Station and Keisei Ueno Station (for easy access to Narita). It’s also very close to Ueno Park and all the museums.
The hotel is a slightly old-school Japanese business hotel. Rooms are spacious for this class, as are bathrooms. The one downside is that decades of smokers have left a cigarette smell throughout much of the hotel and sensitive noses will pick this up even in non-smoking rooms.
The hotel seems due for a renovation and we expect that it will come soon. Once it’s renovated, it will likely be a very nice place to stay.
