Tokyo Trip Day 1 : Sun City – Ikebukuro Hotel
By admin | June 21, 2008
Type A Twins bedroom in Hotel Suncity Ikebukuro (池袋) is very small but the bed is OK. Two single beds that same size with 3 meters each, it become king size bed after combine 2 beds into 1. Although it is still consider small for 2 big size adults and 2 children (2 and 4 years old) for us. Anyway, I am ok because I already used to be sandwich when sleep with SQ & Kiki. We just eat food that not able to finish in flight as dinner in room without go out. I think we are too tired; all of us sleep right after settle all.

Hi Jaye,
The hotel is very close to Ikebukuro Station. You will see it immediately step out from the North Exit, across a road only. Not even 30 second. (But the North 20a exit has no escalators. Anyway, just a short stairs. Just make sure you are exit at North 20a (北口20a出口）.
Most of the Japan Hotel Room are very clean and keeping well, no worry. I heard my friend who stayed at Twin B Type are quite noisy because facing the station. You could request them to arrange the room opposite station (more quiet).
surrounding area quite lively, (but many “kok”"kok” also :p) It is ok lah…we also walk around at night with 2 little children, quite safe. East Ikebukuro just few minutes from the hotel (walk through the station) more lively and nice place to walk.
