Hotels near Itabashi Bridge, Tokyo

This was my first time traveling abroad, my first time traveling alone, and my first time flying solo. The front desk staff here speak English, everyone is very friendly, and the environment is super clean. Everyone is very considerate, and everywhere is spotless. Waiting for the washing machine on the rooftop at night while sipping a soda really hit the spot. For an introvert like me, it was incredibly comfortable. I'll definitely be back next time!

In general, a very good hotel, there are all facilities(separated san.host, washing machine,mini kitchen with stove,and even a closet!).at the time of arrival the purity is complete,but if you live there for a long time at least the wreath is not enough to wax from the floor dust.separate hell of the drive is to pick up the key from the boxing key.the site gave me one code from it,and in fact it was quite different.so if you don't know Japanese and you don't have a ring to call back the hotel,I don't recommend this hemorrhage

I liked this place. A pretty standard classic capsule hotel: sizeable capsule with a console, daily turnover service, large shower and onsen room with an attached steam room. Service was good: they have an army of twinks working there after hours, it was like being checked in by BTS. All issues I had with my capsule (broken lightbulb) were addressed quickly and cheerfully. Sometimes it kinda seemed like they were laughing at a few of the foreign guests, but you know what, fair. This place is kinda rules heavy, with lots of notices posted around the property. There is no eating or drinking in the capsules, and instead you have to go to this common area that feels a bit like a hospice for abandoned uncles. Vending machines, manga library, smoking cubicles, that sorta thing. Clean and tidy though, equal numbers of dudes using it for remote working and day drinking (I have a feeling that some ppl live in this place). They have the usual elaborate system of lockers and keys, but they will store your luggage for you while you are out. No need to check out in the day. Overall a chill experience. While I was staying there though some dude did have a mini breakdown about what he saw as it's shortcomings, so I just wanted to comment on that. According to him the place was disgusting. He was especially perturbed by the housekeeping service and the showers. His claim was the the toilets were dirty and that it was unacceptable to fold bedsheets on the floor. Mind you, he was having this rant at 10:30 - checkout is at 10:00, meaning that a whole stampede of airport-bound weebs had just taken spicy ramen fuelled power dumps so they could get out of there on time. Most of the day the facilities were pretty spotless in my opinion. In regards to folding the bedsheets on the floor, I dunno what in the Disney princess he was expecting, but there really isn't anywhere else to do it. I think it's unreasonable to expect little doves to come fly your linens into your capsule tbh. The capsules are literally on... the floor! What do you want? His overall complaint that the space was generally messy was a lot more valid. At this point I had a suspicion that they kind of segregated foreigners from Japanese customers. It's true, that the foreign floor was a bit of a tip - luggage thrown around, empty bottles everywhere, garbage. I went up to the Japanese floors to snoop around a bit. Spotless. (Pictures of both included for comparison) In this case I think the call is coming from inside the capsule, not really fair to hold the staff accountable to your own messy manners. His final gripe was about the showers - specifically the lack of private cubicles. Private cubicles were not advertised anywhere and Japanese onsens are pretty standardly communal spaces, so again I dunno what he wanted. Maybe a shower, with a curtain? Maybe a shower with a door? Maybe a shower with a psychic forcefield that would make his ex girlfriends forget his underwhelming junk and prevent his father from behind disappointed in him? I'm not sure. But I guess the dozen shower stations with soap, shampoo, and face wash weren't cutting it. In fact a lot of the Western guests seemed pretty pranged out by the shower situation, waiting until like two am to wash up and then scurrying around the baths with a hand towel infront of their package like a little purse. If you regret going bald, that's on you. Kinda silly, but if you are bashful maybe this also isn't the hotel for you. Unreasonable though to blame the establishment for you own shame. Anyway, that's all to say the worst part of my stay was for sure the ranting and raving from an unshowered backpacker while I was trying to have a lie in. Otherwise a pretty decent stay.

The hotel is located at the west exit of Ikebukuro, about a 10-minute walk away. The location is excellent, with the Hall of Peace nearby. As it is an adult only hotel, there is a large bed and jacuzzi.

There are many cost-effective accommodations near here. One of them, and the location is of course less accessible than Ueno, but the traffic is smooth in a location that can be afforded enough. Washing is also possible, drying is also possible (hangers and drying systems, TV applications, huge towels, good water pressure, sofas are also set with bedding and almost 7-Eleven in front. Even if you go near the station, there are Gyudon, curry and lunch chains, so you can eat quite satisfactory until 11 pm. Recommended if only transportation is well solved

Larger luggage needs to use coin lockers. There are more rules for check-in. Relatively, the hotel is also stricter in its own management. The beds are clean. There are many restaurants around. It is more convenient.

Before coming, I was a bit worried about the hotel's age and potential issues with its facilities. However, upon arrival, it exceeded my expectations. The environment is top-notch, and the hygiene is excellent. They provide a wide range of high-quality amenities. The room was tidied up perfectly every day. Key points: The hotel's location is superb, extremely close to the central shopping area of Ikebukuro. Even on rainy days, spending an entire day at Sunshine City, which is connected to the hotel, is no problem. Furthermore, the dining options in Ikebukuro are surprisingly affordable. You can find quality meals with good service for 1000-1500 yen. Even if you don't want to eat out, the FamilyMart on the first floor of the hotel can cover all your meals with a rich variety of options. Lastly, the transportation is very convenient. From Ikebukuro East Station, you can easily reach Shinjuku and Shibuya. From the West Station, you can get to Ueno, Ginza, and Sumida.

The room was a bit smaller than it appeared in the photos, but it wasn’t a problem. It’s a self check-in place, and the instructions were sent prior to our arrival and were clear. The closest station we used was Kita-Ikebukuro, about a 5-minute walk from the apartment. The neighborhood is quiet. In the apartment, the heater worked well and the water pressure was good. There was some dust around the head panels, but it didn’t bother us. The only inconvenience was that there were no utensils and only one pan without a lid. The host was very responsive before our arrival, so I believe this issue would have been resolved if we had messaged them, but we decided not to. It would be better if the place had some kind of closet or shelving for clothes and belongings. Overall, it was a nice place and I would recommend it

Hotel Name: Hotel Wing Akabane Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review: I had a very comfortable and satisfying stay at this hotel. The location is very convenient, making it easy to get around and access transportation. Although I have traveled to many countries, I often feel that hotel services are lacking in some way. However, this hotel exceeded my expectations. All bathroom amenities were fully provided, and guests can take and use as much as they need. Even if you don’t book breakfast, free hot and cold coffee as well as a variety of soft drinks are available from 12:00 noon. Everything, from the facial towels to the facilities, was extremely clean and well maintained. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Japan. One of the best and most satisfying hotel stays I’ve experienced. Booked via Trip.com. Next time see again Hotel wing Akabane. 23rd Feb to Accommodation is available from March 2nd.(8 nights)

It's worth starting with the fact that this is something like a hostel. The hostel is looked after by two old men, you can't write to them by email, you can only call by phone (Japanese). So you must check in before 10 pm, at 10 pm the caretakers leave their post (and you can only agree with them by phone). The guests have separate rooms, the sinks/toilet/shower are shared. The toilet is clean, the shower too, but no one really cleans it. There is shower gel, shampoo and conditioner inside, the conditioner is good! The sink area is constantly uncleaned, it would be great to leave a rag by the sinks so that the guests could wipe up the splashes themselves. On the first floor there is a dining area with a microwave and boiling water. The hostel has a strange smell, but you quickly get used to it. Towels are changed every day. The room is very spacious by Japanese standards, the audibility is maximum, you can hear what is happening two floors down (but if you really want to sleep, this will not bother you). The beds are quite soft (for me it was convenient). There is a refrigerator, a table, a mirror, a comfortable chair, a hanger, a USB socket (near the mirror), napkins, that is, in general, you can settle in comfortably. The advantage of the location is that it is located right next to the Hasune station, this is a relatively quiet residential area. Nearby there are two convenience stores, a supermarket, a drugstore, a ready-made lunch store, Matsuya - everything you need for life. There is an inexpensive cafe at the station, the owner serves delicious coffee, but it is smoky inside. The disadvantage is that Hasune is quite far from the main Tokyo attractions and railway hubs, just to the Yamanote line it takes at least half an hour, and to the Minato, Meguro and other areas - an hour or more. So choose only if your discipline allows you to get up at 7-8 am like a steadfast tin soldier (well, and take into account the time of the last train, from Shinjuku you need to take a train at 23-30 - 45, you won't be able to walk somewhere until the morning, unless you want to spend the night anywhere). If not - it is better for the same money to rent a capsule hotel, but somewhere closer to the center. In general, the place is quiet.
