Guest Reviews
- Rémi (9/5): Très bien - La proximité avec la station de métro et les commerces. C’est au calme. L’accueil est parfait.
- Manuel (9/5): Posizione perfetta e staff gentilissimo - Posizione perfetta, a 5 minuti dalla Yamanote Line che permette di raggiungere tutti i luoghi principali di Tokyo.
Stanza in stile giapponese carina, diversa dal solito.
Staff cordialissimo e disponibile. Servizi molto utili e non scontati, come un ombrello gratis da portare nelle giornate dI pioggia. Kit per per il bagno, collutorio, spazzolini ecc.. Purtroppo (per la mia stanza, non so se per tutte è così) la non possibilità di aprire una finestra per far passare un po d’aria, ma la stanza è dotata di ventola per il ricambio d’aria.
- kyoungho (10/5): -
- Laura (10/5): Parfait hôtel pour une semaine à Tokyo - L'emplacement à 5 minutes de deux stations de métro (Shin-Okubo et Okubo) + de nombreux restaurants et convenance store; la propreté irréprochable des lieux; la gentillesse et la disponibilité de l'équipe de l'hôtel; la taille de la chambre : rien à redire, c'était parfait ! Rien
- HUANG (8/5): - 這家位於新大久保的日式旅館,充滿濃厚的傳統風情。榻榻米房間寬敞舒適、乾淨整潔,讓人能體驗道地的和風住宿。旅館鬧中取靜,步行即可抵達熱鬧的韓國街與車站,週邊美食選擇極多,是東京市區內鬧中取靜、體驗傳統日
- Wei Ting (8/5): - 離地鐵站近,走路約6-7分鐘 空間比想像中小
- Sara (10/5): Love the staff, loved the stay. - Lovely personnel, very very helpful and kind.
The location is amazing, you have everything around the corner. The metro station is close and well connected to other metro lines. The futon is comfortable. You have to walk through a short darker street to get to the location, however it feels very safe.
- Pakwan (10/5): -
- Howarth (9/5): - Lovely room, very spacious.
Location was great, near the metro and walking distance to many things.
- Tomas (7/5): - Good location and space. The futon mattresses.
- Zheng (10/5): 无可挑剔的 - 老板人真的非常非常好,很热情 非常完美
- María (8/5): - L'emplacement, l'attention du personnel, la propreté Mal isolé avec des voisins pas respectueux

- Jason (10/5): - Excellent location. Easy to get round Tokyo.
Futons were so comfortable.
- Justine (10/5): Excellent place in Tokyo! - As said before the location is amazing, central but not noisy at all. The futons were very comfy and the room size was good too. I forgot my reader there and they kept it for me for 10 days as I was out of Tokyo which I really appreciated!

- Jere (7/5): -
- Yaniv (8/5): - Very Japanese place. Very helpful staff and friendly. A unique experience in the heart of Tokyo.
Although super near the hustle and bustle of the city, it is quite and relaxing. A sort of oasis on the city
Like a little Japanese garden inside.
- Nora (10/5): -
- sally-jane (7/5): Simpa pour un séjour de quelques sur Tokyo mais pas grand confort - La localisation très proche de deux stations de métro, endroit très calme et staff super accueillant. Logement un peu vétuste
- Stefano (9/5): Ottimo - Ottima, tutto ok .
- Conor (9/5): Lovely little hotel, very friendly staff, very clean, amazing location - I liked the price, the location, the cleanliness and the friendliness of the staff The bed/pillows were slightly uncomfortable, and the bathroom was dated. However this needs to be taken in context of the price. The price was cheap for the location, so I cannot expect it to be perfect.
- Gabriel (10/5): - The hotel might look a bit outdated from outside, but trust me, as soon as you get in the rooms you'll get an amazing feeling, you're getting a traditional tatami room, with all the facilities you'll need, the bathroom is great and the location of the hotel is great if you don't want to be right in the center of the caos of Tokyo but still near everything since the Yamanote Line is 5 minutes a by walk. Also the staff is really friendly and useful, would 100% recommend to everyone! Nothing.
- SANO Tetsuya (8/5): 宿泊自体は良好でした。 - 館内及び室内設備は良い。 Locationが新大久保のLow Cost Trip外国人の多い地区で、同時にその同類の外国人経営の店舗が多く、環境は良くない。
- Jacquier-roux (9/5): Très bon emplacement, lieu calme et proche d’un quartier cosmopolite - Le côté traditionnel Le fait de rendre les clefs à chaque sortie
- Selçuk (10/5): -
- Jeanine (8/5): Mooie rustige uitvalsbasis om Tokyo te verkennen in Japanse stijl - De rustige ligging maar toch centraal. Heerlijke douche. Geen raam
- Martina (9/5): Ottimo soggiorno! - ambiente tipico stanza spaziosa Arredamento un po datato
- adeline (8/5): Un hotel hyper bien placé, une chambre japonaise confortable et un personnel aux petits soins! - L’emplacement et le personnel toujours aidant
- MIYU (10/5): -
- Esa (8/5): Like a home with a perfect location. - The service was good and staff friendly. It became a home, and we really liked the traditional Japanese style rooms and pretty corridors. The location was exceptionally good for the price: everything was near with public transportation. The laundry machines, especially the dryers, could have worked better. They left an undesirable smell on the clothes.
- Purcell (10/5): Highly recommend for first timers - Very good location and couldn't ask for any friendlier staff
- Ana Paula (7/5): -
- Brenda Morelia (10/5): Buen lugar para hospedarte - El personal es muy amable. El lugar tiene de todo para una estancia comoda. Además está muy cerca de una estación de metro y como plus, de un don quijote.
- Faith (10/5): -
- Daryl (10/5): Great stay - The room is big enough for a family of 3 (couple + baby) and the room size allowed for my baby to roam around to explore. Around the area had many eateries and places to get food from and it's about a 5 min walk from 2 different stations. Staff were friendly and extremely helpful. Would recommend for families. Oh they had coin operated washing machine and dryer too. Not much to complain, just know that the place has no lift to the upper floors.
- Sasa (7/5): -
- Sandro (9/5): Bella struttura in posizione comoda - Posizione perfetta, reception 24 ore quindi qualcuno alla porta controlla sempre, camera ok per una notte, con bagno alla giapponese, posizione perfetta. Futon comodi Nulla
- Gi Ca. (9/5): - Onze gastvrouw Eileen deed er alles aan om ons te helpen, en was hierbij zeer proactief. Wij hadden eerder tevergeefs gepoogd om de datums van ons verblijf met 1 nacht te verkorten, maar dat werd door Eileen meteen geregeld in afstemming met Booking.com.
Ook regelde Eileen voor ons de transfer van onze koffers naar het hotel in Tokyo waar we na terugkeer van onze trip naar Kyoto onze reis zouden eindigen.
- Gioia (8/5): Good position near Shinjuku and good price/quality - Nice and quiet hotel near Shinjuku, it's a small structure with few but large rooms with an authentic and traditional atmosphere. The reception is open 24h and the staff is very kind.
- Melissa (9/5): Traditoneel Japans verblijf - Een traditioneel Japans gevoel
Uitzonderlijk vriendelijke eigenares! Ze helpt met alles wat je maar nodig kan hebben. Ze helpt je valkezen naar boven te brengen. Wij hadden het pribleem dat onze valies kapot geleverd werd aan ons hotel door Yamato en zij heeft geholpen om hiervoor een vergoeding te krijgen.
Haar Engels is heel erg goed.
De locatie is erg handig, dicht bij metro, restaurants, winkels (zoals een Donki) maar toch erg rustig!
De kamers zijn schoon.
Alles is aanwezig (frigo, handdoeken, tandenborstel, shampoo, haardroger, paraplu...)
Verder heb je ook de mogelijkheid tot een andere futon, deken of kussen te kiezen. De kamers zijn licht verouderd. Maar het brengt wel zijn charme.
Ook de muren zijn heel erg dun. Dus als de buren luidruchtig zijn, hoor je alles. Maar daar hadden wij gelukkig geen last van. Iedereen was erg stil in het hotel.
- Elisabetta (10/5): -
- Claudia (3/5): - Incómoda
Sin espacio para dejar las cosas
- Reyes (9/5): Great value and would definitely stay again. - 7 minute walk to Shin Okubo Station. Staff super helpful. Great water pressure and hot water! Was cleaned daily. They help with reservations and luggage forwarding. Room is SMALL but we were 3.
- Bram (10/5): -
- Veronique (8/5): -
- B.D.2603 (8/5): Tolle Lage und trotzdem sehr ruhig. - Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Unser Zimmer bestand aus zwei Räumen. In einem waren die Futonbetten, in dem anderen konnten wir unsere Koffer abstellen und problemlos öffnen.
Das Hotel ist zentral gelegen und trotzdem sehr ruhig. Man hat zwei Metrostationen in unmittelbarer Nähe.
- YOUSUKE (10/5): -
- Ezequiel (9/5): - El personal siempre dispuesto a ayudarte, muy amable.
- May-Lee (9/5): Excellent location and introduction to visiting Japan - A nice experience to stay in a Japanese-style room. First time sleeping on a futon bed and found it very comfortable. Excellent location close to the Shin-Okuba station and lots of shops and restaurants nearby. Staff were lovely and helpful.
- Marina (10/5): -
- Elizabeth (3/5): Not a good pick for families - The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful, but unfortunately the hotel itself is badly in need of cleaning and repair so there was no too much they were able to do to help. They have no larger rooms so our family had to split across two - one on the first floor and one on the third floor. Our rooms both smelled absolutely awful, but each in a different way. The first floor room smelled badly of mildew while the third floor smelled like the worst body odor I have ever encountered. In both cases the only solution to airing out the rooms was to have the air conditioner running on cold despite the fact that it was February and freezing. This still did not remove the smell, but it at least circulated air so that it was not suffocating. It is also located down a rather unpleasant alley that was not nice to walk in the evenings with our children.
- Claire (10/5): - La gentillesse de la famille qui tient l'hôtel, le calme de la rue, la proximité avec 2 stations de JR et de la gare de shinjuku. Plein de petits commerces à deux pas. La possibilité de laver son linge. Ras
- Georgina (8/5): Força bé! - Molt encant, personal molt amable! Al final dormir en tatami està bé, però una mica incomode!
- Cody (10/5): A comfortable stay in the heart of Tokyo. - We had the best time. The classic style is charming for western guests, and we were shocked by the amount of room we had. We slept well on the futons on the tatami, and had lovely chats with the staff every day. It is likely we will return.
In spite of shin okubo being a bit rowdy, the location was remarkably peaceful, and just minutes to both the yamanote and chuo lines. It’s a miracle or a location. These are extremely minor notes but:
For those not prepared for traditional rooms, the wood treating smell isn’t always something we are accustomed to.
There were some scrapes and minor damages that show the age of the property. I don’t think this is a problem, but just something we noted
- Laure (9/5): - L'emplacement est idéal ! La chambre est assez grande. Le personnel est super gentil et serviable !
- Davide (9/5): -
- Dorin (10/5): - Amazing stay. I would definitely book it again when in Tokyo.
- Noémie (8/5): -
- laura (9/5): - Bonne localisation lits confortables chambre spacieuse Il y avait malheureusement une odeur pas très agréable dans la chambre
- Razan (8/5): -
- THANH HUONG (7/5): - With ~ $120/ night in Tokyo, that better than you thought you can get. the hotel very close to the station. You only need to walk 10 mins. And that hotel close to main street where have all the food - restaurant that you need. Staff so friendly. Hight recommend
- MUKHTORBEK (10/5): - So clean, good AC, great service, daily towels replacement. So just amazing thank you
- WANCHENG (6/5): -
- Angela (9/5): -
- mary joyce (10/5): Perfect stay, as always. - The fact that this is our third time staying here in two years really says everything about how much we enjoy this place. We stayed here twice in 2024 and came back again on this trip because it’s consistently been a great experience.
The location is perfect—very convenient and close to the Yamanote Line, which makes getting around Tokyo incredibly easy. The area also feels very safe, which we always appreciate when traveling.
Overall, it’s a reliable and comfortable place to stay, and we would definitely come back again on future trips. None.
- Masako (8/5): -
- Catriona (9/5): Great first stay in Tokyo - Excellent location.
Shin Okubo station is within walking distance. Lots of restaurants and convenience stores nearby.
Clean towels provided each day and fresh bedding.
Staff were very friendly and helped us forward our luggage onto Kyoto.
Coin laundry on fourth floor Could benefit from a little TLC but considering cost and location can’t complain too much
- Gonzalo (8/5): -
- Lap Hang Charles (8/5): - Very helpful staff. She helps to bring our luggages to the 3rd floor.
- Nathaniel (10/5): -
- Antonia (10/5): -
- Roberta (8/5): -
- Joyce (10/5): Convenient, friendly, large room at Shinjuku area - Stayed a total of 5 nights and really enjoyed our time here. Large tatami room with all facilities from TV, hair dryer bath tub dining area and even shared kitchen and paid laundry if required.
Location is safe, convenient just minutes walk to JR Shin-okubu station and lots of Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, Chinese and Genki sushi as well. Dubai chewy cookie very nearby at cafes too.
Reasonable price for such a good location and cost large room. Nothing
- Camilo (9/5): Excelente hotel cercano a la zona de Shinjuku - La habitación era espaciosa, y las camas muy cómodas. Se encuentra ubicado a 20 minutos del barrio de Shinjuku pero el barrio es más tranquilo y permite descansar. Nada.
- Joyce (10/5): Cosy, Convenient Tatami large room - Cosy and hospitable tatami room. Toiletries all provided. Close to Shin Okubo Station (JR line and just a stop from Shinjuku), see Don Don DONKI and turn in to find this lovely lodging.
There are no lifts but we are fine as we only have 2 cabin bags whom Elaine helped us up the stairs. She is really friendly and helpful to all our requests. Nothing
- LIN XIA (10/5): - 離新大久保站3-5分鐘路程,巷子內鬧中取靜,經濟又實惠👍
- Jayson (8/5): - 位置方便,員工友善
- NANASE (9/5): とても便利な場所で、リーズナブルな金額で宿泊できてとてもよかったです! - 建物は古い雰囲気もありましたが、今回宿泊させていただいたお部屋は水回りがリフォームされているようできれいでした。スタッフの皆さんがとても感じが良く気持ちよく過ごせました。新大久保の駅もドン・キホーテも近く、便利でした。 良くなかったというほどのことではないのですが、大きな木の箪笥のような、荷物入れが部屋に設置されているのですが、あまり使い勝手が良くなく、部屋が狭くなってしまっている気がしてもったいないなと感じました。
- Bernhard (10/5): -
- Joyce (10/5): Fully equipped large room, very near Shinjuku - Our 3rd night here, they clean the room daily and change the towels etc. Green matcha provided daily for us to enjoy. Fridge, kettle, TV, hangers etc are all in room. Nothing.
- Joyce (10/5): Large comfortable & clean room at super convenient location. - Large room to sleep in with toilet and shower separated and a dining area to place our luggage as too. Host Elaine was really warm and welcoming and provided extra pillows when we requested too.
Shared Kitchen with toaster oven and microwave and stove too.
Location is really convenient as it’s in the “Korean town” of Tokyo. And near train stations, can easily walk to Shinjuku too. Nothing
- Richard (10/5): Lovely place in Shin Okubo. Great value for money - Location was fine off the main Shin Okubo road. Check in was easy with the staff manning the front desk 24-7. It seems like a family owned place and the people there are really nice. Room is fine. Tatama mats and simple mattress was fine. Enough room for storage. OK, not much walking around room but better than a lot of places. Cheap price for the area and Tokyo as a whole. Would stay here again Small table and need to sit cross legged to eat and drink in the room. It was expected and this is fine. Laundry facilities on the 4th floor need improving. The washer is fine but the dryer is awful. You have to go out and get clothes dry at an external place (3 min away). So overall not bad
- Teoman Sabri (8/5): -
- Viktoryia (10/5): - Оплачивали на месте, все было без проблем. По чистоте все в порядке. Рядом жд станция, далеко идти не нужно.. Никакого шума с улицы, все тихо и спокойно, атмосфера домашняя, работники на стойке улыбчивые и всегда готовы ответить на все вопросы и помочь. За небольшую плату помогли утилизировать старый чемодан(это важно, так как мы не знали, что делать, мусорных баков нигде нет, а у них была такая услуга).
- 寺尾 (8/5): 楽しかった - チェックインが早くても部屋に案内してくれて荷物置けて楽だった
- Gisela (10/5): Great value and worth the stay, surprisingly rooms are bigger than expected. - Loved the comfortable and traditional atmosphere, also very clean. The staff were wonderful and extremely helpful.
- Marco (10/5): My stay at Shin Okubo Sekitei - I really liked the customer service, ambience, and decor of the hotel. Close to many restaurants, bus stops, train stations, and a Donki~ For the price you pay, there is not much to not like.
- Fiona (9/5): thank you very much - will come back again! - clean, friendly attentive helpful service, comfortable
