Hotels near Palaceside Building, Tokyo

KKR HOTEL is conveniently located just above the Takebashi metro station. Although I wasn’t able to book a room with the palace view, the city view I got was amazing. The clear and broad skyline was a pleasure to look at everyday. The hotel room is very spacious, which is a plus for Japanese hotels. One negative aspect during my stay is the water pressure of the shower and faucet. It is VERY WEAK and it seems the staff could not help nor fix. It is rather annoying.

This was my first time staying at a capsule hotel. I'm not sure since I didn't see them, but I think there were proper single rooms on the 3rd floor. I chose a cheaper floor, which resulted in a bedroom with a low ceiling. Aside from it being a bit cramped, everything else was great – the cleanliness and management of the shared facilities like the showers and restrooms were excellent. There are three subway stations nearby, making it convenient to go anywhere. The area around the hotel is mainly offices, so it's quiet. I could sleep peacefully, and just a short walk away are the bustling Kanda area and Tokyo Station. If I go to Tokyo again (alone), I wouldn't hesitate to book this place.

I stayed for a few days and felt very comfortable; this hostel is pretty great overall. They have a buffet, so food is very convenient. The staff are all very friendly and patient when you have questions. Downstairs, there's a coffee shop and a water dispenser, which makes daily life very easy. The room was clean and tidy, and didn't feel cramped at all. I stayed in a six-person room, but there were only four of us, so there was plenty of space. The window faced the street, and the view was decent. Overall, it was a very reassuring stay.

The location is good, with a university nearby. It's about a three to five-minute walk from Jimbocho Station's A2 exit. The hotel entrance is on a corner, and there's a 7-Eleven right across the street, which is super convenient. Check-out is at 11 AM. I booked a king-size bed, which was very large, though the hallways, as is common in Japan, are quite narrow. A 28-inch suitcase can be opened if laid sideways. The lobby has a lounge area with water and coffee, as well as disposable towels. Upon check-in, you receive pajamas, free drip coffee, and toiletries. If you're staying multiple nights and need housekeeping, you must notify the front desk before 10 AM. Even if you're a minute late, they won't clean your room, at most they'll just empty the trash bin. The room was very clean, and overall, I'm very satisfied.

This was my first time experiencing a capsule hotel, and I was amazed by how well everything was organized. The hotel is designed with a clear separation for two genders: male guests stay on the second and third floors, while female guests are on the seventh and eighth floors. There is a shared common room where everyone can relax, work, or chat — the transparent glass walls offer stunning views of the surrounding area, making it a delightful place to unwind. Each guest is assigned a personal locker, which can be accessed using a unique card with a QR code linked to the capsule number — a thoughtful and secure system. Male and female bathrooms are located on separate floors, but there are also toilets conveniently available on the capsule floors for nighttime use. It’s impressive how much thought went into the design of this space. A nice touch was the complimentary tonic booster drink for guests. Overall, the capsule experience was unique and enjoyable. I do wonder if capsule hotels for couples exist — that would be an interesting concept to try!

The hotel was very good. I was able to leave my bags in the reception area when I arrived earlier than expected, so I could go and explore hands free. It was clean, it was in a good location, slightly hard to find at first but after that all good. Fast WiFi, it had a charging port for usb on the bed and then it had a plug on the desk. It had a shower and bath area. It came with shampoo, co conditioner, body wash etc. The only bad thing I have to say is that the bed was quite hard compared to what I’m used to. A lot of people prefer that but I didn’t get the best nights sleep because of this. That’s the only thing I will say though. The staff were super helpful, housekeeping calls at 10am to clear your bin which is great! All in all very good I would stay again.

This is a great hotel! They provide toiletries, pajamas, and even charging cables and curling irons, so you really don't need to bring anything when staying at a Sotetsu series hotel. Although this particular branch in Jimbocho is a bit of a walk from the station, the area is full of bookstores and restaurants, making for a fantastic atmosphere.

Located in Shimbashi Station, Minato Ward, it's only about 1km from Tokyo Tower. Shimbashi Station offers incredibly convenient access to Shibuya and Shinjuku. There's also a smoking room, the hygiene is decent, and the facilities are comprehensive. They have coin-operated washing machines and a large public area with a microwave and a refrigerator. The toilet even comes with sanitary pads. A FamilyMart convenience store is just a few steps away, and there are vending machines right outside the entrance. I will definitely stay here again next time I visit Tokyo.

Probably the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in. The location is great and very well connected to all the spots I wanted to go to. The hostel was incredibly clean especially the bathrooms and staff came in and tidied regularly. I stayed in one of the pod beds which was surprisingly very comfortable too. The downstairs area was very nice and the staff were super accommodating, the lady (I forgot to ask her name 😔) on the front desk was lovely and offered me some local snacks, asked me how my day had been and offered some suggestions of places to visit. I would certainly come back to here if I visit Tokyo again.

The room was clean and tidy, perfect for a solo traveler. There were plenty of restaurants and convenience stores nearby, and getting around was very easy. It's a great choice, and I'd definitely consider staying here again on my next trip to Japan.
