Experience of the stay
I stayed at Hotel Edit Yokohama and thoroughly enjoyed sightseeing in Yokohama!
With a convenient location just a 3-minute walk from Sakuragicho Station’s new south exit and about a 20-minute walk to Chinatown, it was the perfect base. After filling up in Chinatown, I enjoyed a pleasant stroll.
The hotel’s design, inspired by the port city of Yokohama, features a stylish white aesthetic that makes the lounge and guest rooms incredibly cozy. One particularly impressive feature was the corner where I could create my own original bath salt. I was able to mix salt, herbs, and essential oils, providing a special relaxation time during my travels. I savored a bath time enveloped in pleasant aromas, easing my travel fatigue.
The guest rooms were simple yet sophisticated, with cute designs for the sofa and pajamas that uplifted my spirits. Cleanliness was assured, and with everything necessary provided, I experienced no inconveniences. In particular, I appreciated the conveniently located charging outlets throughout the room.
Additionally, I visited the 46th-floor space at Oakwood Suites Yokohama, located just a short walk from the hotel. This spot was open for night views, allowing me to enjoy breathtaking sights of the sea and city lights. It was the perfect place for a leisurely visit, providing wonderful memories to my trip.
With great access, functional amenities, and a high level of design, this hotel offered high satisfaction that made me think, "I want to stay here again."
Experiences during the trip
I enjoyed gourmet food and sightseeing in Yokohama, based on Hotel Edit Yokohama, which I chose as my base for exploring the city. With excellent access from Sakuragicho Station's new south exit, just a 3-minute walk away, and about a 20-minute walk to Chinatown, the convenient location enhanced my travel experience even further.
My first stop was Chinatown, where I indulged in food sampling. I enjoyed juicy xiao long bao (soup dumplings), and pork buns wrapped in crispy melon bread, and I also tried the beef curry rice at “Hosho,” known for being a favorite among many celebrities; everything was exquisite. The standout was the luxurious takoyaki, priced at 800 yen each. For dessert, I had an adorable hedgehog-shaped custard donut, which was so cute that I couldn't resist taking a photo.
Chinatown was also great for souvenir shopping. I bought classic Baby Star Ramen and Yokohama craft beer. They were perfect for gifts for family and friends, as well as treats for myself.
In the evening, I extended my trip to the red brick warehouse to enjoy shopping. There was a space for tasting local sake, allowing me to indulge in the luxurious experience of sampling multiple varieties. Surrounded by fashionable shops, I thoroughly enjoyed the unique atmosphere of Yokohama.
At night, I visited a night view spot on the 46th floor of Oakwood Suites Yokohama, a short walk from the hotel. I was captivated by the breathtaking views created by the sea and city lights. It was the perfect place to visit for a leisurely stroll, adding beautiful scenery to my travel memories.
Dinner was even more fulfilling. First, I went to “Steam Group” near Yokohama Station. I wanted to try Chinese cuisine and ordered Mapo Tofu. The just-right spiciness and umami were exquisite, making me want to order a second helping. Next, I visited “Fish and Sake Hanatare Yokohama East Exit Branch,” where I savored fresh sashimi and enjoyed reasonably priced, delicious sake. The fried horse mackerel and mackerel sushi from Matsuura were particularly fantastic, and I regretted not taking a photo of them.
The charm of Yokohama lies not only in its gourmet food and sightseeing but also in the unforgettable experiences it offers. Returning to Hotel Edit Yokohama, with its convenient location and comfortable design, I reflected on my fulfilling day, feeling a strong desire to visit again. My time in Yokohama was a special moment where I could discover new joys again and again.
