If you are staying in Tokyo for a week or longer, you might want to consider making yourself at home in an apartment-hotel like Court Annex Roppongi. Apartment-hotels, first introduced in Japan by Asahi Homes, are extended-stay facilities that provide optimal accommodations for people such as expat executives on assignment and travelers in Tokyo for lengthy periods. Guests enjoy more than twice the living space of a hotel for about the same price, as well as flexible lease periods starting from one week.
Family-run Court Annex Roppongi is a sixty-two unit complex featuring five types of apartments ranging from small studios to three-bedroom suites. All apartments in this attractive building feature high-quality furniture, cable television, and a fax machine. Kitchens are fitted with the latest electrical appliances, and all units have private bathrooms and storage space. Rent includes weekly professional maid service to clean the room and change the linen. All utility charges are included in the rent except telephone, and free round-the-clock high-speed internet is a standard feature—simply plug in your computer for immediate connectivity.
With monthly rates as low as ¥245,000 (working out to just over ¥8,000 per day), Court Annex Roppongi is not only more comfortable than most hotels but also cheaper. There are even periodic specials that make things very economical, such as one in which a second room can be had for half-price—perfect for families and groups!
