Location and transport
The hotel is two minutes on foot from Kawagoe Station West Exit on the JR Kawagoe Line and Tobu Tojo Line.

Airport access
Narita airport buses serve Kawagoe Station West Exit. Haneda airport bus service on the Kawagoe route is partially suspended, so check current schedules before relying on it.
Why stay here
Kawagoe Tobu Hotel is best suited to travelers who want the convenience of Kawagoe Station rather than a stay deep in the old-town streets. Its main strengths are the two-minute station walk, U_PLACE setting, modern room layouts, laundry and lobby services, breakfast on site, and simple onward access for sightseeing buses or taxis.
Good to know
The hotel does not have its own parking lot. Registered guests can use the U_PLACE commercial facility parking lot at preferential rates, but parking cannot be reserved and nearby paid lots may be needed when it is full.
