"a lovely place to wait"

(United States)

The Sakura lounge at Narita terminal 2 is very nice. The terminal itself lacks basic shopping and services that are present in terminal 1. However, if you need a place to kick your feet up in a nice environment with a good view of the ramp (to watch the planes), the 2-level lounge is quiet and a lovely place to wait. The second floor had a very complete buffet for breakfast: eggs, potatoes, salad, and other dishes, along with an open bar (mix yourself), coffee and other drinks. Best lounge I've been in for some time.

"I look forward to my layovers here"

(United States)

Both the Japan Airlines Sakura Lounge and the First Class lounges at Tokyo Narita Airport are outstanding, with shower rooms, massages and excellent food and drink. Staff are gracious and accommodating. I look forward to my layovers here.

"the lounge was very clean and efficient"

(United States)

I flew early in the morning, so there were not many people in the lounge. There weren't many food choices, but the lounge was very clean and efficient. Great way to calm down and kill time. The lounge is conveniently placed and easy to find. I didn't use the showers, but they looked very nice.

"tastefully designed and overlooking the tarmac"

(Hong Kong)

The lounge was fairly easy to find once past passport control. Staff very welcoming lounge is tastefully designed and overlooking the tarmac which means ample lighting and feeling of openness. Free wifi available and fast and steady. Plenty of seating. The lounge is split into two levels upper level for dining lower level for tea coffee and snacks. Very clean bathroom and shower facilities plentiful. I was disappointed with the lack of food selections some sandwiches rice beef curry and spicy bean curd dish available. Okay selection of drinks and alcohol. I was disappointed by the lack of sweets and desserts only cookies nuts and bite-size cheese available. It is obvious to see Japan Airlines is trying to cut cost.

"watched sunrise and had some lovely strawberries"

(United Kingdom)

Very early departure on BA back to Heathrow. Got there about 0510! Watched sunrise and had some lovely strawberries. Departure delayed 45 mins so as we were travelling First we went next door to First lounge which opened at 0600. Nice peaceful surroundings and a short hop to the departure gate. Very pleasant all round.

"One of the best lounges I have been in"

(Malaysia)

One of the best lounges I have been in. I managed to get a 1hr nap in a private cubicle with a bed followed by food and drinks in the restaurant area. This was followed by a massage and nice hot shower.

"I found the food very disappointing"

(Canada)

I waited one hour at the JAL lounge between gates 37 and 38. The lounge was comfortable enough with WiFi internet connections bathrooms and comfortable chairs. What I found very disappointing was the food. Apart from a few croissants a few cookies and a cauldron of clam chowder there was no food. There were two "no Halal" signs that I found rather funny. One was funny because it was set up amongst the few croissants and cookies - nothing was halal because there was almost nothing there I thought. The other was set up amongst all the bottles of spirits at the wet bar. Gee couldn't they find any halal alcohol? At this lounge JAL comes off looking cheap.

"the worst business class lounge I have been in"

(Japan)

This is the worst business class lounge I have ever been in. The drink selection is poor and only a few cookies for food. It is extremely small and the no smoking area wreaked of smoke. It is more comfortable sitting at the gate. At least by the gate you aren't subjected to second hand smoke.
