Toyoko Inn Odawara Station East Exit
Business hotel with breakfast included near the castle
About this hotel
Toyoko Inn Odawara Station East Exit combines a business-hotel rate with two things families tend to want most: breakfast included and a three-minute walk to Odawara Castle. That combination sets it apart from the plainer business hotels in this destination, most of which price breakfast separately, and it puts a major sightseeing stop within easy reach without needing a car or a bus. Accessible and kid-friendly room options round out a stay built around simplicity — get breakfast, walk to the castle, come back for the evening — rather than a resort-style amenity list. Paid parking is available too, for the portion of guests who do arrive by car rather than by train.
- Breakfast included
- Near Odawara Castle
- Accessible rooms
- Kid-friendly
Our take
This suits a family wanting breakfast sorted and Odawara Castle within an easy walk, at a straightforward business-hotel rate. It's a weaker fit for a group wanting beach access or an onsen bathhouse, since Toyoko Inn is a train-side business hotel rather than a resort or ryokan — look to Oiso Prince Hotel or Tenseien Annex instead for either.
- ✓Eat the complimentary breakfast before a full castle day — it's included and saves time versus finding a cafe in Odawara.
- ✓Walk to Odawara Castle in the three minutes it takes rather than booking a taxi, especially on a clear morning.
- ✓Book parking ahead if arriving by car, since it's a paid extra despite the included breakfast.

Why guests love itWe chose Toyoko Inn mainly for the included breakfast after a week of paying extra everywhere else, and the three-minute walk to Odawara Castle turned it into the most convenient base of the whole Kanagawa trip — out the door after breakfast, at the castle gates before the day got hot, back in time for the kids' afternoon nap without a single taxi needed.
