BOOK AND BED TOKYO Shinsaibashi

Really beautiful book decor, helpful staff, cute café, many showers/toilets available to use

Got there early & was able to leave my bags until I checked in. Staff were super nice & helpful. The location was honestly the best!!! Walking distance to everything! We stayed in the double room, we had a balcony which was cool. The hostel itself was awesome, it had a cool vibe, nice easy music, clean facilities & very quiet although next to a busy area. Upstairs was a karaoke place which was awesome. Wouldn’t recommend this place enough. Thank you for an awesome & affordable place.

Such a comfortable hostel. The bed was actually soft unlike many places in Japan. And a proper pillow too! Also no stairs, everything is on the same level and close and you get up with a lift too. Family mart is few meters away. Absolutely loved that in the capsule there was a dimmable light, hanging space and a safe easy to use to store valuables. Most books are in Japanese, but some English books were really interesting. They had the whole harry potter collection aswell! If you can invest a little and are not planning to cook, this would be the perfect hostel.

The location is great, it’s around the corner from a main shopping street and close to a few stations. The bathrooms and shared space were always clean, and the cafe (although a little pricey) was really handy in the mornings when I was feeling exhausted from my travels.

One of my favourite hostel stays I have ever had! Not only was the location excellent in the Shinsaibashi area (a five min walk from Shinsaibashi station), the aesthetics within the hostel were just the coolest. There was an extensive variety of books and manga within the hostel, as well as a fabulous cafe attached to the reception area. Upon check-out, my friend and I were able to get iced mocha and iced matcha drinks. We enjoyed them within the comfort of the bright and spacious lobby area before heading out. Thank you for the great stay!
