Hotel Details

Location

Five minutes on foot from JR Ueno Station and a four-minute walk to Ameyokocho market, in a lively area with shops, dining and Ueno Park 500 metres away.
The Nell Ueno Okachimachi sits in the heart of Ueno, one of Tokyo's most convenient transit hubs. JR Ueno Station is a five-minute walk, providing direct train access to Narita Airport via the Skyliner and easy connections across the city. The Ameyokocho shopping arcade is only four minutes away, offering street food, casual restaurants and retail. Ueno Park - home to museums, a zoo and cherry blossoms - is 500 metres away, and Sensoji Temple in Asakusa is about 20 minutes by train and foot. Several Korean barbecue spots, a Hard Rock Cafe and local izakaya are within a 5-minute walk. The area is well served by both JR and metro lines, making car-free exploration simple and efficient.

Accommodation

Compact, air-conditioned sleeping capsules side by side in a shared dormitory with free Wi-Fi, a TV, alarm clock and power outlet. Shared bathrooms only.
Each sleeping capsule is a private, enclosed space with a TV, alarm clock, power outlet, free Wi-Fi and individual air conditioning. Capsules sit side-by-side in a large shared room, so earplugs are recommended for light sleepers. The property provides a towel and yukata robe per stay; basic toiletries are available. Bathrooms and toilets are shared and cleaned regularly. The common lounge on the ground floor features a flat-screen TV and vending machines for drinks. A coin-operated laundry is available on site. The overall feel is clean, organized and practical - ideal for solo travellers who prioritise location, value and essential comfort over private space.

Leisure

Free public bath and sauna are available on the basement floor - a clean and quiet space to unwind after a day of sightseeing.
The basement houses a free public bath and sauna. The bath is open overnight, making it a practical way to soak after a long day of walking the city. The sauna is also free and well-maintained. The shared lounge on the ground floor has a flat-screen TV for relaxation. No pool, spa or gym is available. For outdoor leisure, Ueno Park (500 metres away) offers walking paths and cultural sites.

Amenities

24-hour reception, free Wi-Fi in capsules, luggage storage, lockers, coin laundry and a vending machine for drinks. No parking or airport shuttle.
The 24-hour front desk can assist with late check-in and local recommendations. Free Wi-Fi is available in all capsule spaces. Luggage storage and lockers are free to use - useful for early arrivals or late departures. A coin-operated laundry is on site at an additional charge. Shared facilities include a lounge with a TV and a vending machine (drinks only). The property has a lift and designated smoking areas. No parking, no airport shuttle and no pet access. For those arriving by train, both JR Ueno and Okachimachi stations are within a 5-8 minute walk.
