In-Depth Review
Rooms and decor
The MYSTAYS chain runs hotels at several tiers across Japan, and the PREMIER line sits a clear notch above a standard business hotel. Rooms at the Narita branch are genuinely roomy — a generous 21-24 sq m against the 14-16 sq m you usually get at an airport — with a smart fit-out, soft Simmons beds, a wide work desk, a large TV and a clean, tidy finish. If you have ever stayed at an airport hotel where the room was so tight you had to swing your bag around the bed, this is a lot easier to relax in, especially on a last night when you want to spread out and pack at your own pace.
Food and amenities
There is an on-site restaurant, free Wi-Fi and 24-hour service, plus a coin laundry that is genuinely useful at the end of a trip when the clothes have piled up. Non-smoking rooms are available too. The shared facilities are lighter than a full 4-star, so think of this as a comfortable, roomier base rather than a place stacked with extras.
Location and getting there
The free Narita Airport shuttle covers all three terminals — 1, 2 and 3 — in about 15 minutes, running frequently from pre-dawn to late night, so your travel timing stays smooth; that shuttle category scores 9.0. The hotel is also an easy run into town if you have time before a flight: a taxi reaches Naritasan Temple and the Omotesando shopping street in about 10 minutes, where you can eat unagi and browse for souvenirs. Narita Station is about 4 km away and AEON Mall Narita roughly 3.5 km.
Things to know before booking
Rates start around $63 a night, a step up from the budget airport hotels here — though the gap is only a few hundred baht, and the extra room is obvious the moment you walk in. Shared facilities are simpler than a full 4-star, so this is more about the room than a long amenities list. And rooms fill quickly in high season, so book ahead if your dates fall over a peak travel period.
Our take
Starting around $63 a night, this sits squarely between a budget airport hotel like Gateway and a 4-star like Crowne Plaza, and the 8.7 real-guest score (Agoda 8.6, Booking 8.5, Trip 8.7) beats most hotels at the same price. HOTEL MYSTAYS PREMIER Narita is best for couples and families who want a roomier, more comfortable airport stay without 4-star money — the point where comfort and value meet in the middle, without feeling like you overpaid or cut a corner.
