Villa Fontaine

Tokyo

Villa Fontaine was ranked in the Michelin Guidebook 2009 edition as a quality business hotel. It has a great location in futuristic Shiodome, close to Ginza, Marunouchi and Tokyo stations.

The hotel is also ideally placed for Hamarikyu Gardens and Tsukiji Fish Market, both of which are within walking distance. Most hotels in this area come with a price tag to match but the Villa Fontaine offers excellent value for money, comfortable rooms and adequate facilities.

Superior rooms are on the small side, so perhaps consider upgrading to the larger twin rooms if you want that little bit more space during your stay.
