Recently, the editor personally planned a business trip from Kyoto to Toyosu, Tokyo, and directly tried the InterCity Hotel Baggage Link!
“InterCity Hotel Baggage Link” Same-Day Baggage Delivery Service
Delivery Address: Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Sanjo PREMIER
During the business trip in Kyoto, the editor stayed at Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Sanjo PREMIER, which was previously introduced.
The next day’s schedule was to visit a tourist spot for coverage in the morning and stay overnight at Mitsui Garden Hotel Toyosu PREMIER.
For instance, leaving your luggage at the hotel would still be inconvenient, as you would have to return to retrieve it before heading to Kyoto Station and then to Tokyo.
Moreover, the time needed to store and retrieve luggage would take away from opportunities to eating, resting, or shopping. In a beautiful city like Kyoto, you certainly wouldn’t want to waste a single second.
While waiting to check-in at the lobby, I came across information about “InterCity Hotel Baggage Link” and immediately decided to book this service. Details on how to book will be explained later.
The luggage to be sent the next day is a suitcase as shown in the bottom left photo. It contains clothes and toiletries needed for an overnight stay, as well as work equipment and souvenirs that would not be used for work the next day.
Earlier, I introduced Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Sanjo PREMIER, which opened last Year. This time, I stayed in a different room—more spacious and could accommodate up to three people. Perfect for family trips!
After returning to the hotel after a full day of work in Kyoto, I relaxed in the public bath. After that, I packed my things and prepared for bed!
The delivery deadline for Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Sanjo PREMIER is 08:30.
The next morning, I was able to send my luggage first before breakfast, which was very easy and convenient.
I showed my reservation number at the reception and requested to use the “InterCity Hotel Baggage Link” same-day luggage delivery service.
The staff then attached a card with the reservation number and destination hotel name to my luggage, preparing it for delivery.
Afterwards, I enjoyed a luxurious and delicious breakfast filled with the atmosphere of Kyoto, checked out, and went to work.
Soon, I received an email notifying me that the package delivery procedure was complete, and I could track the package’s progress anytime using the tracking link.
Receiving Location: Mitsui Garden Hotel Toyosu PREMIER
Through the tracking link that was sent earlier, I was able to confirm that my luggage arrived safely at Mitsui Garden Hotel Toyosu PREMIER.
After completing the coverage in Kyoto, the editor immediately headed to Tokyo by Shinkansen in the evening and checked in at Mitsui Garden Hotel Toyosu PREMIER.
At check-in, I enjoyed the night view of Tokyo while waiting for the staff to deliver the luggage.
If the luggage arrives earlier than scheduled, the hotel staff may place it in your room. If the conditions are crowded, the staff may not be able to place it in your room. This way, guests only need to check in and immediately receive their luggage.
