TOYOKO INN TOKYO EKI SHIN OHASHI MAE, Tokyo

The hotel is situated in a safe, calm neighbourhood far from the city's busiest areas, yet well-connected. Hamacho Station on the Shinjuku Line is a 5-minute walk, and Asakusa Station is a 10- to 15-minute walk. Tokyo Station is a 25-minute walk or a quick trip via the hotel's free shuttle. Multiple metro lines are within 5-10 minutes on foot, providing straightforward access to Shinjuku, Asakusa, and other tourist areas. The nearby Hamacho Park and Sumida River are popular for walks and morning jogs. A convenience store is a 7- to 10-minute walk, and several restaurants and supermarkets are within a short distance. Tokyo Haneda Airport is 20 km away.

Room types include single, twin, and double rooms, all with a private bathroom with bath, shower, hairdryer, and free toiletries. Each room is air-conditioned and features a flat-screen TV, electric kettle, wardrobe, and heating. While rooms are compact by international standards, the layout allows for opening a large suitcase. Twin rooms are spacious enough for two people for a short stay. The atmosphere is basic but comfortable, suitable for budget-minded travellers. Rooms on higher floors (10th floor and above) provide exceptional views of the Sumida River and Tokyo Skytree. Windows open only slightly for ventilation, which is standard in Japan. Road-facing rooms are generally quiet despite the nearby highroad.

The breakfast buffet is included in the room rate and offers a range of Japanese dishes such as rice, miso soup, and side dishes, as well as some Western options like bread and pastries. The breakfast is consistently described as good, filling, and varied, with fresh items daily. Free coffee, tea, and water are available in the breakfast area in the evening as well. For other meals, there is a convenience store within a 10-minute walk, and a selection of restaurants and cafés nearby, including curry, sushi, Belgian beer kitchen, and a patisserie, all within 0.5 km. The hotel's own vending machine provides drinks.

All rooms have free Wi-Fi. The hotel operates a free shuttle bus to and from Tokyo Station on a first-come, first-served schedule, which is especially useful for luggage. Private on-site parking is available but requires a reservation and costs ¥2000 per day. The 24-hour front desk can assist with luggage storage before check-in and after check-out. Laundry is available for a small fee. The ground floor has a vending machine, microwave, ice machine, and a stand offering complimentary toiletries, razors, nightwear, and other personal items.
