1-Star Hotels in Tokyo

I really love this place. Location: Not far from Ikebukuro, you need to take the Tobu-Tojo line, but it is near the station, only a 3-min walk. Cleanliness: Overall it is clean, but there is always a smell on the first floor, but it still doesn’t bother me! Service: Really the best. I really love the staff here. I talk to Rio, who was the reception for my April stay he really has an impressive level of English, and he explains so well! I would love to chat with him again! Also thanks, Nana, for keeping my luggage, and Anna, who is really bright and fluent in Japanese and English! Amenity: I really love the basement here; there’s space for everyone. That's why I always choose this hostel. Even if the price is sometimes higher than other places, the staff always cleans the plate for you. The bin is too little for the amount of trash lol. I recommend here! I leave the room to improve a bit for cleanliness, but this place is still clean! I hope next time I can give you 10/10

I've stayed here twice, both before and after my trip to Mount Fuji. It's incredibly convenient. There's also a bus to Narita Airport, and you can buy tickets on Klook, which isn't expensive. The bus stop is just a 10-minute walk away, which is great. This time, I took the train and got off at Ueno Station. Next time I come to Japan, I'll definitely stay here again. It's so much more convenient.

This is a very good room, close to major attractions. You can easily walk to go shopping, take photos, and there are many delicious and affordable restaurants open 24 hours. The subway is conveniently accessible. The room itself is quite small but clean and secure with a good key card system.

They have a nice bathhouse in the basement. Capsules do feel a bit small. Lockers are small, but you can put your stuff in your capsule or outside of it. Would book again, it's an authentic Japanese experience.

I really enjoyed this hotel. This was my first time in a capsule hotel, and it is better than the common western hostels. More privacy, better luxury. I enjoyed the bathroom and the amenities (slippers, bathrobe). My favourite thing about this hotel was its 70-80s style. There were still old telephones, old capsules and elevators from 40 years ago throughout the building. I really appreciated that, since I am especially interested in Japanese history during that period (the boom). Last but not least, I also noticed then good connection to the city center (about 1 hour by metro to the castle) and its proximity to the Tokyo Skytree (only a few stations).

It seemed that we were the only couple staying in the house a few days ago, so it was very quiet and felt very good. After a few couples came in the next two days, the house became noisy. People came and went in the morning and evening, and the corridors in the rooms were very crowded, so the experience was down, otherwise it would be a perfect score, although the washing machine and dryer cost money and were very noisy. The staff was very enthusiastic and allowed to store luggage in advance. The house was not in the main building, but in a corner ten meters away from the next door. The house is located as shown in the picture. The recommended index is full in the off-season, and it is halved in the peak season.

I used this accommodation the day before going to Narita Airport. The host was very friendly and kind. I arrived early, and luckily the door was open, so they let me check in early. The location might be a little hard to find, but it's close to the station and in a good location. The beds were properly separated, and the whole place was quiet and very nice. I would definitely like to use it again!!

The place was very good for solo travellers and also family. You can meet with many people from different counties. The staff was very cheerful and helpful. I will definitely suggest the hotel to my family and friends. I will definitely book again in the future if i am traveling in tokyo again.

Facilities: The room is relatively small, and it is relatively suitable for one person to live in. The highlight is that it is small but fully equipped, with a kettle, induction cooker, and exhaust fan for oil smoke. There is no problem with cooking noodles. The bathroom is a small integrated bathroom. The tables, chairs, and lamps are all from an unknown era. There is also an inexplicable thing on the table with a lamp installed in it. I use it as a night light and it is not dazzling. Hygiene: There is no dust on the floor and the table when entering the room. The wall is painted black. When the sunlight is obvious, you can see the dust on the upper half of the wall. There are mold marks on the toilet. When you open the door when you check in, you can also smell a little mold. Environment: A homestay on a quiet road in the downtown area of ​​Shinjuku, very close to Shinjuku Station (exit from the Koshu Kaido exit and navigate) Service: Check-in is simple, sign, and give a door card. If you stay in the same room, you will put the bath towel in a bag and put it at your door. All the front desk staff I met were very friendly. I didn’t communicate much because of the language barrier, so I won’t comment on the service.

Walked here after visiting Sakurazaka National, and carrying a big backpack made the distance feel quite long 😂. Before checking in, you have to read the instructions yourself and then fill out a form. It seemed like there were more Japanese guests during the concert period. Showers are in the basement and require coins, but the innermost one doesn't. People who are sensitive about hygiene might find it a bit off-putting because the mat at the shower room entrance was soaking wet (perhaps due to peak hours). I stayed in a mixed dorm, and I felt the toilets were older compared to previous hostels I've stayed in, showing signs of age (and there didn't seem to be any disinfectant...). The sinks were similar. I'm a girl, but I'm not fussy, especially since this is the closest and cheapest accommodation to the National. All in all, it's okay. The hygiene was slightly worse than places I've stayed before, but it's tolerable 🫱
