The QUBE Hotel Chiba

Rooms are clean and staff are helpful

The staff was courteous and accommodating despite the language barrier.

The Qube is a little outside the Chiba CBD in the ‘port area’. This suited us as we don’t like overcrowded touristy places. Value for money: Absolutely; we picked up a 2-night Expedia package at around A$275, which makes this excellent value. As normal we walked a lot, which was good from our hotel: it connected easily to the monorail; make time to go on this. We took a 1-day pass each at Y630: outstanding value! Back to our hotel: it was clean, well serviced & the staff were great. We would rate this a strong 4.75/5, with a small deduction for a poor TV setup with no English channels & a quirky shower. Eating establishments are few & far between around the Qube: we found a small restaurant not far away that served gorgeous Gyoza’s: the food in Chiba was excellent as in all of Japan. We have added a few pounds after a month in country: the bakeries! Get me out of here! Better than the French for sure: pastries that melt in your mouth. Would we stay here again: Yes, at the price point mentioned. Overall we were pretty happy with our stay. As a married over 65 couple who have been exploring the world together for over 35 years, we believe in the value of these honest reviews: we hope ours was useful to you. Thanks, ALGreynomads

This hotel appears to mainly caters for big group bookings. They all eat breakfast at 7am and the kitchen cannot keep up to replenish the food. It is absolutely chaos 7am-8am, which was not ideal as a business traveller. The tourists leave the food serving hubs open, leaving food to go cold for other guests. The hotel only rosters 1 staff during this time. I blame poor hotel management for this. I did notice on the days where there were less mass group booking, and more local businessmen, the hotel rostered 3 staff to manage the food replenishments. The breakfast food options were not great. The room was big, nice view and was probably grand in the 90s. Certainly dated now. Mostly clean. Our shower had a lot of grime build up on the screen and one of the nozzles had a lot of green rust from water calcifications. The other nozzle is good for people shorter than 5foot. Location is conveniently near a Don Quijote, 7-11 and Daiso. I would not recommend this to a fellow business traveller, or anyone wishing to have breakfast 7am-8am.
