Jeffery Skytree Residence Tokyo, hotel in Tokyo

Providing quiet street views, Jeffery Skytree Residence Tokyo in Tokyo provides accommodations and a terrace. This 3-star guest house offers an elevator, bicycle parking, and free Wifi.

We really like the location, close to major train routes, but far enough to feel calm and quiet. You can easily walk to Asakusa too. Easy to access, and love having the facilities to wash clothes and cook meals. Decent cupboard spaces for storing clothes and keeping suitcases out of the way. View from top floor is lovely, the Skytree is so pretty at night.

Ici Japon Village, hotel in Tokyo

Offering air-conditioned rooms in the Katstushika Ward district of Tokyo, Ici Japon Village is 1.2 miles from Shoganji Temple.

Beautiful, very clean space! All of the rooms and spaces, including the bathrooms, were spotless. The space felt especially warm and homey during the daylight hours (sun!), and I appreciated the variety of lighting options (from very bright, to dim and warm) at night. Really appreciated having snacks on arrival a long international flight. Laundry machine worked great.

DENCHI TOKYO - Guest House DENCHI, hotel in Tokyo

DENCHI TOKYO - Guest House DENCHI is a recently renovated guest house in the center of Tokyo, a few steps from Kappabashi-dori Shopping Street and a 3-minute walk from Drum Museum.

For large groups, having two separate toilets and showers saves so much time. Usually on other trips we would have to wait and queue for an hour before we're all done showering.

    Great host; charming neighbourhood; smooth check in-and-out; cost-efficient! Room was equipped with all of the essentials and more. Great place to stay if it’s your first time in Tokyo, as the host provides you with in-depth guides on how to reach the apartment and how to operate various pieces of technology. Would’ve loved to stay longer.

    The hostel was very quiet and comfortable. The beds were nice and big and offered plenty of space, never felt claustrophobic. Due to the heat, there was no need to close the doors to the bed. Location was perfect and right in the middle of tokyo with a 2 minute walk from Sensoji shrine. There were also high quality cheap Ramen places nearby for food.There is also a 7 eleven just outside the accomadtion.

    We loved out stay at Kitazawa Cosy House, very spacious, quiet and clean with all the amenities we needed. Host Amy was friendly and we felt welcomed. Great location and an easy walk to the heart of Kitazawa for shopping, great cafes and restaurants. Easy walk to the Odakyu (Shinjuku) and Keio (Shibuya/Kichijoji) lines for transportation throughout Tokyo. We came back to Kitazawa our last day in Tokyo for the Shimokitazawa Music Festival. What a great way to end our vacation!

    Jij is a great host who made me feel like spending Christmas in a home rather than a guesthouse. After receiving the special-lemon-juice-welcome drink I’ve been shown where to buy delicious Sushi at a cheap price & in the evening everyone gathered around the common table. Definitely my favourite hostel in Tokyo so far.
