Toyoko Inn Tokyo-eki Shin-ohashi Mae

The free shuttle between Toyoko Inn Tokyo Station Shin-Ohashi Mae and the Yaesu Central Exit at Tokyo Station is the real standout, especially if you’re traveling by Shinkansen. Hamacho Station is only a two-minute walk away, and the area near historic Shin-Ohashi Bridge and the Sumida River terrace feels peaceful. It’s lovely for a night stroll. For about $68 (10,000 yen), this is excellent value if you need easy access to Tokyo Station. The building and bathroom feel a little dated, but the place is clean and well maintained. My standard Single Room was practical for working on a PC, and I could store my suitcase under the bed. Service is excellent for a budget hotel. Breakfast is a free buffet with healthy soups and even a collaboration curry soup from "CoCo Ichibanya". They also use bamboo biomass for toothbrushes and combs as part of their sustainability efforts. A dependable choice for an easy Tokyo stay. 💡 Pro Tips: - Dining: Try "Hustle Ramen" nearby for rich pork bone soy sauce ramen, or go to "Tokyo Ramen Street" inside Tokyo Station for famous niboshi noodles. - Sightseeing: Check out the "Pokemon Store" or "Character Street" at Tokyo Station for exclusive souvenirs.

The staff were kind and friendly. Most understand basic English, and one staff member who speaks English, Japanese, and Chinese was especially helpful. The room was small, and the toilet and shower share the same space, but it was clean and comfortable for my stay. They provided handy essentials like a toothbrush and toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, and a humidifier. Room views depend on luck: some are amazing, while others look straight at a wall. I had a pleasant stay with helpful staff and the basics covered, though the room size and layout won’t suit everyone.

For the trip from either Narita airport or Haneda airport, you can take a limousine bus to TCAT and then get a taxi to the hotel for about $800 yen. The hotel is budget friendly, and Hamacho is station is nearby, making it easy to get around Tokyo. Free breakfast is included.

We had a nice view of Skytree from our room. There was some noise from the nearby highway, but it was a steady hum and didn’t interrupt our sleep. The room was fairly large for a Japanese hotel in this price range, and the price seemed fair. It’s well located near Tokyo Station and a relatively close underground station. The staff were extremely kind and helped us save money with their membership card. Breakfast is free and delicious, and the free shuttle to Tokyo Station is quick and usually has plenty of empty seats.
