Speaking English, Japanese, Korean and Chinese at the 24-hour front desk, staff will be happy to provide guests with practical advice on the area.

This is not my 1st stay and we decided to come back again due to its location (15 mins JR line to Tokyo and shibuya), tidy & clean, surrounded by 24/7 supermarket with different restaurants options, and it’s superb value for a group of boys. Somehow we discovered there’s more to add in this time; We got waken up by an 4.2 earthquake at 8:59am and the facility didn’t shatter at all.

There are dormitory rooms with bunk beds and capsule-type units in this property. The capsules feature walls on 3 sides for a more private stay. Each unit is equipped with a luggage storage area, shelf, electric sockets and a reading light.

This time I stayed at the upper bunk which I find better than the lower bunk in terms of space and coziness. The hotel has it's rules which is respected by the travellers therefore even in packing, people were trying to be as quiet as possible which is much appreciated. Finally saw the super cute resident owl Mori-kun!!

It was a very comfortable stay. My colleague and I were very tired after a long day. But, to our surprise, there was a spa (bath-house). It was very relaxing. The cabin was also very comfortable.

Looking for a capsule hotel?

Developed in Japan, these cheap 'pod' hotels are a novelty for any traveller. With rows of small single bed enclosed capsules, accommodation is basic and intended to be overnight. There is separate storage for luggage and gender-separate communal bathrooms — some capsule hotels also have a sentō, a Japanese bath house, often for male guests only.

    This capsule hotel was the first place we stayed in Tokyo for two nights. The sleeping pods are well designed, with a pull down screen, comfortable bedding, convenient and thoughtful areas to put your items and clothing. The lockers were sizeable, able to fit big suitcases. The room itself had multiple toilets, never had to wait for them despite a full room. The shower and onsen facilities were wonderful and convenient to use, also open all night so you can usually be by yourself if you wanted to! Breakfast was convenient, and tasty.

    The location was a little hard to find but it was in a good, convenient area. My pod was much more comfortable than I expected. It was lovely and quiet. I lived in Japan for 10 years in the 1990s and never dared to stay in a capsule hotel. Now aged 60 back on a visit, I tried this out and it was perfect and I’d definitely stay again.

    It is excellent capsule hotel for solo travellers. It is close to Akabane station (1-2 min walk), eating places, like Matsuya (24hours open), etc. The price is excellent too. For Tokyo, it is very cheap. The Check-in works until 00.00. It is very convenient, when you have very late arrival at Haneda airport (1 hour by train). The front desk is perfect!

    Stayed 8 nights. Extremely clean, stylish, new and modern capsule hotel with Japanese elements incorporated into the design and concept (wooden design, Jap music at the reception). Capsule beds were spacious, well ventilated and comfortable. Can’t emphasise how clean the place is. Fresh yukata and towels every morning. Onsen and sauna were well maintained. Convenient location just a few steps away from Akasaka Mitsuke metro and a Family Mart just in front of the building.

    Very conveniently located near Shibuya. It was my first experience with a capsule hotel and I was very happy with it. The capsules feel private. It's very quiet in there. There are small lockers for each person which can fit a carry on bag and shoes. Bathrooms and facilities were very clean. Showers were always free and available when I used them. Shampoo, conditioner, shower gel provided. I felt really safe there. Staff were friendly and check in and out were very easy.

    It's run by the same group that run the Lively Hotels in Osaka and Fukuoka. Having stayed in those properties already the receptionist gave me a free water bottle at check in! Free beer hour, and together with the cozy communal space this leads to a great chance to meet fellow travelers, which can be tough in Japanese capsule hotels The capsule contains a full double bed, which can be raised up to form a sofa. There's space underneath to store your bags. The bed is super comfortable, more so than most hotels I stayed at on this trip!

    1. No daily check out when staying more than one night = can stay and leave belongings in the capsule 2. Clean and modern facilities 3. Private shower rooms (some Japanese capsule hotels only have public bath that everyone goes in naked) 4. Bathrooms and lockers are conveniently located on the same floor near all the capsules (some capsule hotels have them on separate floors) 5. Friendly fellow foreign travelers 6. Near a train station (but a small one so not that may train lines pass)
