Annex Royal Hotel Japan: Unbelievable Luxury Awaits You!
Alright, buckle up buttercups! Because we're about to dive headfirst into the glorious, slightly chaotic, and undeniably tempting world of [HOTEL NAME - PLEASE FILL IN]. This isn't your sanitized, corporate-speak review. This is the real deal, warts and all, because let's be honest, who really trusts a review that's perfectly polished?
First Impressions - Let's Get Physical (and Digital, Too!)
Okay, so finding parking? Free of charge! Huge plus, especially if you're like me and view parking as a competitive sport. They’ve got a car park on-site and even a car power charging station, which is pretty snazzy for the eco-conscious. And, and! They have valet parking. So, like, living the high life from the get-go.
Walking in, the elevator's a godsend. This place caters to a good mix of folks. Facilities for disabled guests are clearly thought out, and that earns some serious brownie points. Accessibility…well, it's a thing, and they're leaning into it, which is great.
Internet - The Lifeline of the Modern Traveler (and Workaholic)
Look, let's cut to the chase. In this day and age, Wi-Fi is oxygen. Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! YES! And not just that, they've got Internet [LAN] options too. For the hardcore, or those who just can't risk a dropped connection. Internet services are plentiful. Wi-Fi in public areas, which is a must. Seriously, can you imagine a hotel without Wi-Fi? It's like a silent movie in a world of TikTok. The actual internet speed while I was there… well, let's just say it wasn't lightning fast. But it was reliable enough to stream a movie with no issues, and do my work, so I'm not griping.
The Room: My Temporary Throne (and the Minor Mishaps)
My room. Oh, my room. First things first: non-smoking – a relief. Air conditioning, a necessity in [LOCATION]; worked like a charm. And yes, free bottled water! Little things, you know? They did a good job, and it felt pretty darn comfy.
Okay, here's a confession: I've had my share of hotel room nightmares. But, this one? Pretty solid. The blackout curtains were a game-changer. I could actually sleep in past 8 AM (which, for me, is a miracle). I loved having a desk, a laptop workspace, and good desk lighting setup, too. The extra long bed was ridiculously comfortable. I really enjoyed the bathrobes, and I wish I had actually used the slippers more often, they would have added that touch of luxury.
Now, the little things: They have bathrobes, a coffee/tea maker, and complimentary tea, which is a must-have for me to have a cup of tea in the room. I even had a scale. I didn’t dare to weigh myself while I was there though!
The downside? Well, the socket near the bed wasn’t the most conveniently placed. I had to stretch to reach to charge the phone, and sometimes I’m not a graceful human being. And for a few days, I did try to use the television, but the channels were a little lacking. They do have on-demand movies, but I wasn’t in the mood to go to the movies while I was there.
Dining, Drinking, and Devouring - Food Glorious Food!
Okay, foodie alert! This is where [HOTEL NAME] really shines. Dining options are abundant. Whether you're a fan of Asian breakfast, international cuisine, western cuisine, or just want a salad in the restaurant or a soup in restaurant, you're covered. They got breakfast [buffet] plus breakfast service and, bless their hearts, breakfast in room is also an option!
I will never forget stumbling into the coffee shop at 7 AM, bleary-eyed and desperate for caffeine. The coffee was strong, and the pastries? Heavenly. I had a dessert in restaurant that was amazing, it had to have a chef’s touch, I never had anything like it.
There's a poolside bar and even a happy hour. Honestly, I spent a little too much time there. And they have room service [24-hour] – vital for those midnight snack attacks.
The whole set-up? Very safe. They have Sanitized kitchen and tableware items, and they use Anti-viral cleaning products. They also have Safe dining setup, and they have Staff trained in safety protocol.
Wellness & Relaxation - Ahhh, Bliss (or a Run on the Treadmill)
Alright, time to unwind (or work up a sweat, your choice!). The fitness center is a pretty great space. Lots of equipment. I tried to work out but I ended up just going to the sauna and steamroom and the spa/sauna, and it was pure heaven. They offer a spa, and they have a swimming pool - this one with a pool with a view - and it's pure eye candy.
I also got a massage. Let me tell you, that was worth every penny. They also have a body scrub and body wrap.
Things to Do - Beyond the Buffet
Beyond the hotel confines, there's plenty to explore. The hotel can can help with Airport transfer so the trip doesn’t need to be a hassle. They can also hook you up with a taxi service. A concierge is also available, which is super helpful with sightseeing recommendations and bookings.
Cleanliness & Safety - Because Peace of Mind Matters
This is where [HOTEL NAME] really shines. Hygiene certification is something to look out for. They have CCTV in common areas, CCTV outside property, and a security [24-hour]. They have Hand sanitizer everywhere, and they use Professional-grade sanitizing services. They can also provide Room sanitization opt-out available when you’re checking out, on top of the fact they do Rooms sanitized between stays.
For the Kids - (Or Just the Young at Heart!)
They are Family/child friendly, and they have Babysitting service.
The Quirky Stuff - The Little Touches that Make a Difference
- Cashless payment service - A lifesaver! No more fumbling for exact change.
- Convenience store - Snacks, drinks, essentials, all at your fingertips.
- Shrine - In a hotel? Unexpected, but kind of lovely.

Escape to Paradise: Your Dream Fulya Apartment in Turkey Awaits!
Okay, buckle up, buttercups. This isn't your standard, pristine travel itinerary. This is… me, attempting to wrangle a trip to the Annex Royal Hotel in Japan. Expect glitches, existential crises about the proper way to eat a dumpling, and a whole lot of second-guessing. Here we go… (deep breath)
Project: Annex Royal – Attempt at Japanese Bliss (and Avoiding Utter Humiliation)
Day 1 – Arrival, Anticipation (and Panic)
06:00 - Alarm Screech! (Ugh, mornings. Japan, you better be worth it.) Coffee down the hatch, barely. Checked luggage – cross fingers! I'm historically terrible at packing. Probably forgot something crucial, like… breathable underwear. We'll find out, won't we?
07:00 - Airport Dash: Taxi is a godsend. Praying I don't have a tragic "lost passport" moment. My anxiety gremlins are having a rave in my brain.
09:00 - Flight to Narita (NRT): Praying the turbulence isn't too horrifying. Got my noise-canceling headphones, but I also packed a barf bag. Just in case. Gotta be prepared, right?
10:00 - Pre-Flight Nerves: Found that crucial last-minute item: a travel-sized bottle of anxiety medication. Thank God.
15:00 (Japan Time): Arrive, Narita! Immigration – smooth(ish) sailing. I actually remembered my passport! Hurray! But… the crowds. Oh, the crowds. My internal monologue sounds like a swarm of confused bees at this point. Gotta find that airport train to the Annex Royal.
16:00 - Train to Shinjuku Station: Got a Suica card, thanks to the patient airport worker. The train is efficient, clean, and… quiet. Whispers and polite coughs. I felt like I had to mute my usual thought-blasting. Still, it's a good start.
17:00 - Shinjuku Station & Annex Royal Approach: Shinjuku Station is a labyrinth. I probably asked for directions three times and still felt like I'd wandered onto a set for a low-budget sci-fi film. Eventually, stumbled upon the Annex Royal. Relief washes over me. Holy moly, I'm here.
17:30 - Annex Royal Check-In: The lobby is stunning, serene. Trying really hard not to gawk. The staff are so polite; I feel like a blundering oaf. Do I bow? Do I shake hands? I just smile and hope for the best. The room is beautiful. So clean. I feel like I could eat off the floor. (Don't worry, I won't.)
18:00 - Unpack & Recon: Unpack – haphazardly. Find no breathable underwear. (Cue minor freak-out, remedied by the realization I can buy more. Crisis averted, for now) Survey the room. This view is fantastic. Take a picture. Take another. Then, a panorama. I'm the tourist stereotype.
19:00 – Dinner at a Local Ramen Shop (Potential Disaster): This is where this whole "immersing myself in the culture" thing could go very wrong. Found a ramen shop recommended by a friend. Learning to use chopsticks is… a journey. I'm anticipating noodle-related disasters.
Anecdote: Saw a Japanese businessman slurp his noodles with gusto. I attempt that. Then try again. Then get broth all over my face. Note to self: practice noodle slurping before the trip.
Emotional Reaction: (Post-Ramen): OMG. The broth! The noodles! The pork! I managed to not completely embarrass myself, and it was THE BEST ramen I've ever had. Worth the potential humiliation.
20:30 - Evening Walk (Lost and Loving it): Wandering the neon-lit streets of Shinjuku. Feeling a little lost but utterly mesmerized. The energy of this city is infectious. So many flashing lights, strange sounds, and smells I can't identify.
21:30 - Back to the Hotel, Collapse: Exhausted but exhilarated. Journaling (badly). Feeling like I've crammed a whole day into a few hours. The first of a million cups of tea. Attempting to navigate the Japanese TV channels. Give up. Sleep. The best sleep that I've had in years.
Day 2 – Temples, Tranquility… and Karaoke (Oh God)
08:00 - Breakfast at the Hotel: Avoiding the "fish" section on the buffet table. I'm not ready for that kind of adventure so early.
09:00 - Meiji Jingu Shrine: This is what I came for… the calm. The air is fresher. The trees are huge. The silence is a gift. Definitely more peaceful than Shinjuku Station.
10:30 - Harajuku (Youthful Rebellion): Takeshita street is a sensory overload! So. Much. Cuteness. The crepes are tempting. I buy a cat ear headband. What is happening to me?
12:00 - Lunch in Harajuku: Attempting to order something with minimal pointing (failing). I manage! Triumph of sorts.
13:00 - Exploring Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden: A perfect place for a breather. I mean, the first half hour I was just wandering and getting lost. But when I found the garden… ah. So beautiful. Found a quiet spot and just breathed.
15:00 - Afternoon Ramble & Snack Obsession: Okay, I'm officially obsessed with Japanese snacks. They're all so delightfully strange and mysterious.
16:00 - Karaoke! (Deep, Deep Breath): My friend convinced me. I'm terrified. I'm going to sound terrible. Public humiliation awaits.
- Anecdote: The karaoke experience was… unforgettable. Or, rather, I'm trying to pretend to forget the truly terrible rendition of "Bohemian Rhapsody" I did. But the energy, the laughter… it was actually kinda fun. I was mortified and had a good time.
- Emotional Reaction: (Post-Karaoke Trauma): My voice is gone. My self-esteem is shattered. But… I also feel a strange sense of camaraderie with my fellow karaoke participants. We all, somehow, survived.
18:00 - Dinner: I need comfort food after karaoke. Maybe some more ramen.
20:00 – Hotel Chill: Re-group. Watch some Japanese TV (still clueless, but enjoying it). Trying to not overthink tomorrow's adventures.
21:00 - Write & Sleep: Journal. Trying to be a better traveler. (Still failing, but hey, progress is overrated anyway.)
Day 3 - Day Trip to Hakone (Mount Fuji!?)
- 07:00 - Wake Up/Quick Breakfast: Quick one today, We have to get to the train on time! It would be a total disaster to miss that.
- 08:00 - Train to Hakone: Fingers crossed for a clear view of Mount Fuji. I didn't realize how long the ride to Hakone was.
- 09:00 - Hakone Ropeway (Fuji Hunting): The suspense is killing me! Will I see the majestic mountain?
- 10:00 - The Great Fuji Reveal (HOPEFULLY): Please let Mount Fuji be visible. Weather gods, hear my plea! I hope I will be able to see what everyone is seeing.
- Emotional Reaction: (If Fuji is shrouded in mist): Devastation! A small, internal meltdown. (If Fuji is visible): An explosion of joy! Tears! Photos! All the things!
- 11:00 - Hakone Lake Cruise: Gorgeous views. Possibly slightly seasick. Worth it.
- 12:30 - Lunch in Hakone: Delicious food (Japanese Curry?).
- 14:00 - Hakone Open-Air Museum: Art in nature. Amazing!
- 16:00 - Head Back to Tokyo: All the travel has me tired.
- 18:00 - Dinner: Want a hot bath in the hotel and sleep.
- 20:00 - Pack:
- 21:00 - Sleep:
Day 4 – Last Day, Farewell (and a Promise to Return)
- 08:00 - Final Breakfast: I'm going to miss those soft Japanese rolls.
- 09:00 - Last-Minute Shopping: Souvenirs, snacks to bring back, I still haven't bought the right gifts, panic!
- 11:00 - Check-Out: Sadness. But also, I'm exhausted.
- 12:00 - Lunch (Maybe One More Ramen?): Or
