Hotel Details

Location

A central Shimbashi location, 10 minutes on foot from Shimbashi Station, with Haneda Airport a 16 km drive away.

Located in central Tokyo near the Ginza district, this guest house is a short walk from Shinbashi Shiogama Shrine, Sakurada Park, and the NHK Museum of Broadcasting. The quiet Shimbashi area is outside the busiest tourist zones, with many inexpensive eateries, convenience stores, and two rooftop bars within a 5-minute walk. Shimbashi Station provides direct rail access to Haneda Airport (approx. 30 minutes) and across the city, making it a practical base for both business and exploration without needing a car.

Accommodation

Capsule-style rooms with shared facilities, each featuring air conditioning, heating, and an electric kettle.

Each individual capsule is made of thin plywood, which means noise from snoring, late-night calls, and hallway movement carries easily. Capsules are small with limited nearby luggage space, so a medium-sized backpack is more practical than a large suitcase. The sleeping area also functions as the entry and common corridor, adding to potential noise until late hours. Beds are narrow with basic mattresses, suitable for a short budget stay of 1-2 nights. A curtain provides privacy within the mixed-gender dormitory.

Dining

Free coffee and tea are available in the common area. No restaurant or paid breakfast is offered.

The property provides free coffee, tea, and a water dispenser in the common space. A microwave and electric kettle are available for guests' use. For additional meals, the surrounding Shimbashi area has numerous inexpensive restaurants, ramen shops, and convenience stores within a 5-minute walk, including Menkoi-Dokoro Kiraku and Yudetaro Shimbashi Akrengadori.

Wellness and Leisure

No on-site leisure facilities such as a pool, spa, or gym are available.

The property focuses entirely on practical budget accommodation. There are no wellness or leisure facilities. The quiet Shimbashi district offers local parks, and the nearby Ginza and Shinbashi area provides entertainment and dining options within walking distance.

Facilities and Services

Free Wi-Fi, secure key-code entry, and daily towel replacement. Luggage can be kept in the common area before check-in at your own risk.

Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the property. There is no parking, and no staff are on site at night; the self-check-in system uses a keypad code sent in advance. Lockers with dial keys are provided for valuables, but larger suitcases must be left in the common space, where the property cannot take responsibility for loss or damage. Daily free amenities include bath towels, toothbrushes, razors, and shampoo. The property operates cashless with American Express, Visa, and MasterCard accepted.
