Tokyo Hotels with Balcony

The accommodation is about a ten-minute walk from the station. It's clean and tidy, and having a washing machine is a huge plus for travelers. The bathroom even has a bathtub for a relaxing soak. The only downside was that on the day we stayed, the guests upstairs kept running around, making a lot of noise! It improved after the host intervened, which I really appreciate 🙏 Kinshicho Station area is very lively, and I'd love to visit again if I get the chance!

Our family trip to Tokyo was made much easier by this hotel—it was an excellent choice for us. They offer adjoining rooms and sofa beds, which gave us plenty of space and flexibility. The location is another big plus: set within a family-friendly park, it’s just a short walk to Tokyo Tower, great restaurants, and nearby subway stations. One thing to keep in mind: the elevators are split—floors 1–18 and 19–32 are served separately, and access to floors 18–32 requires a key card. So if you’re booking multiple room types, just double-check which floors they’re on to avoid any confusion.

We traveled with a group of five. The apartment was quite spacious for the number of people, very clean, with a balcony and a traditional-style room. It had everything necessary for a large group: two showers, toiletries for washing and bathing, a washing machine with detergent, shoe shine equipment, an iron, a small ironing board, and other household items. It's located a 5-minute walk from Asakusa Temple and about a 10-15-minute walk to the nearest subway station. There are several 7-11 stores, cafes, and bars nearby. The only downside is that you have to carry luggage up a rather small staircase to the 3rd floor, but overall, it's tolerable.

A Stay That Feels Like Coming Home – My Honest Review 1. Prime Location, Peaceful Setting Tucked just a short stroll from Shinagawa Station, this guesthouse is brilliantly located for exploring Tokyo. Despite being so close to a major transport hub, the neighborhood is remarkably quiet and residential. Finding the place was a breeze – clear instructions and a distinctive exterior made it instantly recognizable. 2. Thoughtful, Characterful Interior Design This is no cookie-cutter hostel. The owner has poured genuine creativity into every corner – vintage posters, handmade handpicked furniture, and an artsy blend of retro and modern elements. I booked a single bed this time, but unlike the typical 10-square-meter hotel boxes in Tokyo, my space felt genuinely roomy. I could stretch out, lay open my suitcase, and still have floor space to do morning stretches – a rare luxury for solo travelers. 3. Fully Equipped – With Surprising Extras The amenities go way beyond basics. A full kitchen with cookware, a washing machine. But the real delight? The owner’s personal toy collection scattered around – retro figures, board games, and quirky knickknacks to tinker with. And the crown jewel: a vintage record player with a curated vinyl selection, plus a compact DJ setup. I spent one evening spinning tracks with the host personal collections – an unforgettable Tokyo memory. 4. The Host – Warm, Witty, and Genuinely Sociable The owner is the heart of this place. They greet every guest like an old friend, share honest food recommendations for the local alleyways (I tried three of his tips – all phenomenal), and even bring their little dog down to the common area in some evenings. We’d gather around, sip drinks, chat about life, and laugh at their stories. It’s that rare blend of hospitality and authenticity that you can’t book – it just happens. Who Would Love This Place? Solo adventurers who crave connection but value their own space. Digital nomads needing room to work and relax. Music lovers, design nerds, and anyone tired of sterile hotel chains. If you’re traveling alone in Japan and actually want to make friends – over a shared meal, a vinyl crackle, or a dog’s gentle nudge – this is your spot. Highly, highly recommended.

The hotel is a bit of an uphill walk from Shinagawa Station, and you take an elevator to the first-floor lobby, which is grandly decorated. However, when I tried to check in early, I encountered a Japanese front desk staff member who looked like I owed her money. After paying 4,000 yen for two hours, she told me I'd still have to wait ten minutes for a room (which would have been past the 30-minute mark already). I immediately questioned her about this unfair policy, and she eventually refunded me for one hour. In the end, I got my room card 50 minutes later, successfully checking in an hour early. There was a resonant buzzing sound in the room, but aside from that, the hotel's room service staff were very polite. The room itself was quite spacious and had a balcony, offering a clear view of Tokyo Tower from our 11th-floor room. It's also very close to Takanawa Station. I would consider staying here again if the price is right.

Hygiene: The room was clean, but there was a strong, distinctive body odor, reminiscent of Middle Eastern countries. It could have been cleaned more thoroughly; I accidentally dropped something under the bed and later found a grape there. Location: It's just a convenient 5-minute walk to Ningyocho. Although it's a residential area, there are plenty of restaurants nearby. Service: The hotel communicated with us via email throughout our stay. They were also proactive in trying to resolve an issue with the washing machine not turning on, though I eventually figured out I just needed to plug it in myself 😓. Facilities: The facilities are excellent. The kitchen is well-equipped with cooking utensils, and there's also a washing machine, shoe cabinet, and wardrobe – it really felt just like home.

Location: In Maruyama-cho, Shibuya, just a stone's throw away from the bustling Shibuya station. Price: I booked during Golden Week, and you won't find another place to sleep in Shibuya for the same price. Bed: It's sized for Chinese guests, wider than traditional Japanese capsule hotels, and comes with a USB port and regular power outlets, so no worries about charging. The first picture shows the room size after removing the duvet cover. For just one night's sleep and a shower, this place is impeccable.

Very conveniently located with the metro station exit right downstairs. Bus stops with bus to Asakusa and Ueno, etc. are also downstairs or within walking distance. It is also a short and pleasant walk to Tokyo Sky Tree. Also very responsive to fix wifi connection issues. Overall we had a good and enjoyable stay. Thanks!

The room was nice and clean
