Hotel Details

Location

Less than 10 minutes on foot from Takadanobaba Station on the Yamanote and Tozai lines, in a quiet neighbourhood with shops and dining.
ELM Takadanobaba sits in the Shinjuku-ku area, about 25 km from Haneda Airport. Takadanobaba Station is reachable within 10 minutes on foot and provides direct access to the Yamanote Line, connecting to Shibuya, Shinjuku, and Tokyo Station. The Tozai and Seibu Shinjuku lines are also within walking distance. A 7-Eleven is immediately downstairs; supermarkets, izakayas, and halal-friendly restaurants line the approach. The property is set in a quiet residential street, though the uphill walk from the station can be demanding with wheeled luggage. Otomeyama Park is 8 minutes away, and several temples and shrines are within a kilometre.

Accommodation

Compact studio apartments with a private bathroom, kitchenette, air conditioning, and a double or twin bed configuration.
Rooms are functional studio apartments. Each has a private bathroom with a shower, a hairdryer, and a toilet; bathrooms are compact and can become steamy. The kitchenette includes a microwave, electric kettle, induction hob, refrigerator, and basic kitchenware - enough for simple meal prep but lacking a full oven, rice cooker, or large cookware. Air conditioning and an electric kettle are standard; some rooms have a balcony. Bedding varies - a double bed is typical, while third guests receive a single futon or use a sofa bed depending on the room. Room size is adequate for two people but can feel very cramped for three. Noise insulation is limited: internal walls are thin and road-facing rooms or those near the school next door may hear daytime activity. Windows can be opened for ventilation. Upper-floor rooms are accessible by lift. Photos may not reflect the actual room condition; some furnishings show wear.

Dining

No restaurant or breakfast is on site; a 7-Eleven is downstairs and numerous restaurants are within a 500-metre walk.
ELM Takadanobaba does not have a restaurant, bar, or breakfast service. For meals, the 7-Eleven convenience store directly below the building is open 24 hours and offers prepared meals, snacks, and drinks. Within 5 minutes on foot, guests find a wide choice of independent izakayas, sushi places, udon shops, and halal-friendly restaurants. Supermarkets selling ingredients are also within 5 to 10 minutes. The kitchenette in the room allows simple self-catering, but it lacks a full oven, rice cooker, and large cookware, so meal preparation is best suited to small stovetop dishes, reheating, and making tea or coffee.

Wellness and Leisure

No wellness facilities are on site; leisure options rely on the local neighbourhood.
The property does not include a pool, gym, spa, or other leisure facilities. For outdoor recreation, Otomeyama Park is an 8-minute walk away, providing open space and a children's playground. The surrounding residential area is quiet and suitable for walking, and the lively Takadanobaba station area offers casual dining and shopping. Coin-operated washing machines and dryers are available on the common floor of the building.
