Stayed here as it is near to our son's girlfriends flat in Musashikosugi recently. We have travelled to Tokyo before and have a good understanding of the way of life, so our expectations of the Hotel were spiced with trepidation, based on what we have seen before, having had stunning rooms in the past as well as 'smoke tinged' dingy, rabbit hutches as well - not so the Richmond! ||Located in the heart of this part of Musashikosugi, it is within very easy walking distance of all the amenities you could ask for. The lobby is located up a couple of floors by leaving a somewhat claustrophobic entrance area and the street behind. The Lobby itself is not the grand affair you can often see elsewhere, but this sort of hotel is more aimed at the Japanese business man.||We had a room with a double bed, a bathroom (with a BATH & a shower) the obligatory hotel style electric, musical, hot water toilet! The room had wifi, TV and a really comfortable bed - all in all everything you should expect, except the rooms are exceptionally small, again as a result of the leaning towards the corporate business market of the single man. That said, it was very clean well presented, neat and tidy. But the gem was yet to be revealed - and here comes the western twist||We booked 7 nights with breakfast, and whilst not cheap, the breakfast was a sight to behold, not just content to cater for local food culture, they go for global style! - a myriad of dishes for every taste, every continent, every desire, every diet. I have not yet ever seen a breakfast buffet that can touch it. You could stay there all morning and still not have tried all that was on offer - Magnificent!!||All in all, its proximity to entertainment, shopping, restaurants, bars, buses, trains and the underground is surely beyond rival and I would recommend this hotel even though it was a tad expensive. I would give it 4.75 stars if I could, but only due to the slight lack of room space and the cost (for 7 nights) at JPY113700 (£840 ish) including breakfast. Well worth considering if you are looking for a decent stay whilst in Japan.
