Hotels near Nippori Train Station in Tokyo

A good hotel to come with friends

The hotel is right next to a busy subway line, so some noise is unavoidable. However, if you close the window, most of the sound is blocked out. This is a self-check-in and check-out hotel by design. The subway station mentioned in the hotel's name is actually about a 10-minute walk away, but there's another subway station very close by. There are also izakayas and convenience stores in the vicinity.

Pros: 1. **Excellent Service:** The staff were very friendly and responsive. 2. **Clean Environment:** The room was immaculately clean, which made for a very comfortable stay. 3. **Good Amenities:** The ground floor offers a variety of essentials like toiletries and drinks, which is super convenient. Basic living facilities are also generally well-equipped. Cons/Things to Note: 1. **Slightly Inconvenient Entry/Exit:** You need to take off your shoes when entering, which can be a bit inconvenient if you're going in and out frequently. 2. **Firm Sleeping Experience:** The mattress is quite firm and the pillows are rather high. Those who aren't used to a hard bed or high pillow might need some time to adjust. 3. **Cramped Bathroom:** The bathroom is indeed quite small, making it a bit difficult to move around while showering. The wet/dry separation could also be improved.

This hotel is super convenient, just a 4-minute walk from JR Nippori Station on the Yamanote Line. The lobby is impressive, and I loved the complimentary tea bags, especially the apple tea – it smells amazing! The room was a bit small, but the pillow was incredibly comfortable. Getting around was a breeze; you can easily reach Shibuya and Ikebukuro directly on the Yamanote Line. I even walked to the Tokyo National Museum, which only took about 20 minutes.

I stayed here for one night before taking the Shinkansen from Ueno Station the next morning. The hotel is conveniently located near the station — it took about 10 minutes by taxi at around 7:00 AM with no traffic, and the fare was approximately 1,500–1,800 yen. I arrived for check-in at حوالي 10:00 PM, and there was still a receptionist available. The check-in process was quick and the staff were friendly and welcoming. The hotel is located along the main road, so it is easy to find. The room was quite small compared to the Kiyosumi branch. It was not possible to open two suitcases at the same time. However, the kitchenette was well equipped with an electric stove, microwave, and kettle. The bathroom was compact, as is typical in Japan, but fully functional. The bed was comfortable and the room was very quiet. Even though the hotel is close to the train station, I could not hear any train noise at all. Overall, this hotel is very convenient for a short stay before traveling the next day. However, for a longer stay, I would recommend choosing a branch with a larger room. There is also a 24-hour restaurant located across the street, which is very convenient.

This was my first stay here, and the only real issue was that the location is a bit far from the station. The staff were very kind. The only other minor thing was that some fellow guests were a little noisy, but nothing too bothersome. As I'm sensitive to smells, I really appreciated the air purifier and the coin laundry. The complimentary coffee and donuts in the morning were delicious. I'd like to try the cafe on the first floor next time. While some reviews have lower ratings, I think it really depends on the staff and guests present at the time.

The hotel is very conveniently located from the subway station. It's about 3-5 minutes to the nearest station, and 10 to 15 minutes to the neighboring Nippori station. It's a leisurely 35 minutes to Asakusa. The room is certainly smoky, but we were warned about it. We opened the window, it was already warm outside, so it was fine. Someone wrote in the reviews that you could hear the trains. Our room faced the station, it didn't bother us at all. The room is small, there's nowhere to put your suitcases. The toilet is separate from the bathroom. What caused a big problem for me was the complete absence of any hooks or bars in the bathroom where you can hang towels or robes. There's nowhere at all. Towels are replaced at your request, and they also give you a teapot and mugs for this. You can leave your things in storage. Would I recommend this hotel for a stay in Tokyo for a few days? Definitely yes!

Transportation: It's right next to JR Mikawashima Station, about a 12-minute walk to Tokyo Metro Nippori. The nearest convenience store is 7-Eleven. Room: I only stayed one night on the second floor. The women's dormitory bunk bed only had one outlet. No toothbrush, toothpaste, slippers, or bath towel were provided. Shower: The public bath on the second floor was very cold and smelled like grilled fish, so I didn't use it. The first floor only had one communal shower, which had time limits and sometimes required waiting in line. Service: The staff starts at 4 PM. If you arrive early on your check-in day, you can sit around since no one's really watching. Luggage can be stored on the fourth floor. On check-out day, you can store your luggage until 10 PM. The front desk service was decent; there was a young lady who spoke Chinese.

I stayed for 4 nights and 5 days. Pros: First of all, it's cheap. It was 50,000 won per night, but that price is actually cheaper than a capsule in the city. The location is really good. If you have a subway pass, you can easily stop by the accommodation. It's 5 minutes from the subway station. The photos of the accommodation look a bit like that, but it's actually cleaner than you think. The bathroom is cleaner than my bathroom at home, if you exaggerate a little. The service is really good and the staff is friendly. The large public bath is spacious and not many people come in, so it's easy to use. There are 3 shower rooms on the first floor, but I've never seen 3 of them full. There's a convenience store and a mart nearby. Cons: Towels are 150 yen, so you have to pay for them. You also have to pay for room cleaning. There's nothing else. I really recommend it.

Just checked out this morning after a seven-night stay. Overall, it offered good value for money. It's very close to Nishi-Nippori Station, and there are plenty of restaurants nearby, making dinner very convenient. The front desk staff were also very friendly. My child lives near Akado-shogakko-mae Station on the Toden Arakawa Line, and among the hotels in that area, this one offered the best value. I'll definitely stay here again when I visit in two months.
