Mitsui Garden Hotel Ueno Review

A mid-range hotel facing Ueno Park across the station approach, with the museums a walk through the trees.

Best for

MuseumsFamiliesDay trips north

Why it stands out

It is the closest of our picks to the park, which is what almost everyone staying in Ueno actually came for.

Main trade-off

The station approach is busy and plain, so the pleasant part of Ueno starts once you have crossed it.

Why we recommend it

Best for families

Facing Ueno Park, so the museums, the boating pond and the zoo are a walk through the trees rather than a train ride.
