Almont Hotel Nippori

The Nippori station is just a 5-minute walk away, and the Skyliner express to Narita leaves at 8:22 AM for my train, taking only 50 minutes to arrive—so convenient. The room is small but perfectly fine given the affordable price. Both the room and the hotel are impeccably clean. A standout feature is the breakfast, which costs about $10 for adult, with a 50% discount for kids. It’s the best and most elegant breakfast buffet I've ever had in a hotel of this level, featuring traditional Japanese food along with Western bakery items and eggs/sausages. I wish I could stay longer to fully enjoy each dish. The front desk gentleman who speaks Chinese was very helpful, as the other front desk ladies only spoke Japanese. He was fantastic! The breakfast attendant didn’t speak much English but was super nice and patient. There was a small argument with a guest about breakfast admission and payment, and she remained quiet, gentle, and patient even when the guest was almost yelling. She was awesome too. The hotel management should improve the breakfast transaction process, perhaps with physical vouchers or immediate transactions, to avoid any disputes that could spoil such a beautiful breakfast.
