The hotel is fantastic, it's in great condition considering it's age. The staff are more attentive than at most of the 5 star hotels I've stayed at and the food options on site are exceptional. Especially the small bar. The rooms are a little dated but it's more like being in a movie set during the showa period than run down everything has been kept up well. While it's in essentially the inner core of Tokyo its in a quiet location,you don't have endless bar and restaurant choices in the neighbourhood but you can get to places like kanda station in a 10 minute walk and it's only a 5 minute walk to the chuo line which is incredibly useful. I think the Hilltop is actually quite special.

Stayed in a traditional room and it was a great experience with enough space. Breakfast was excellent both when provided by room service or in the breakfast rooms. The three restaurant had excellent food.

Small mid-century style hotel. Excellent staff and amenities. Rooms are small but clean and comfortable. Great location for local restaurants.

boutique

Pros: It's old style that works very well
Cons: nothing
Location: close to metro and JR stations. Wasn't bombed in the war so genuinely old buildings and atmosphere. Famous for books, ancient prints, guitars.
I always say there and am always remembered by the staff and looked after

Eccentric and Charming

Posted 19 Nov 2017
Pros: We loved the furnishings and the overall style. Staff is fabulous. Be sure to try the cozy bar - the bartender is a true professional.
Cons: Nothing!
Location: Near Meiji University and many, many, many musical instrument stores. Good inexpensive food in the area. Close to Metro.
This hotel is 1950s throw back in style. Rooms are small but comfortable. We loved the eccentricities but it may not be for everyone. If you appreciate mid century furnishings and are not in need of business conveniences, this is a lovely place with fabulous staff. It's a good break from generic corporate style hotels. Location is away from main hotel areas.

A classic

Posted 13 Mar 2016 on Hotels
The Hilltop is the antidote to hotel life in the modern metropolis. Set back from the street, it is quiet and charming in the old style. Art deco/art nouveau furnishing touches, gorgeous little restaurants (imagine breakfast surrounded by stained glass and classical music). Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. It is a gem!
