What guests think

At Sakura Hotel Nippori, travelers highlight very friendly staff, simple small rooms (often futon style), generally clean shared bathrooms, a basic toast‑and‑soup breakfast, and handy on‑site amenities like a cafe and coin laundry.

Recurring downsides include spotty in-room Wi‑Fi, occasional odors and dated or worn areas, limited storage in very compact rooms, and some noise from corridors and shared spaces. The location near Nippori and Sendagi stations makes airport transfers and city travel easy, with Yanaka’s shops and eateries close by. Expect a budget, no‑frills stay with warm service and solid basics.

Nice place, inexpensive hotel in an otherwise pricey area. Gender neutral shower area, but there are several showers with private, lockable rooms (2x4 feet) just outside of the shower itself (shower door is also lockable). Showers were kept tidy, and full bottles of body soap and shampoo were available in each shower unit. Bathrooms were also shared but were gendered, and also kept tidy. Staff gave us options for western style (bed frames) versus traditional (futon on ground) but the "western style" just had the same futons but on the bed frames. Not a deal breaker for me but I could see a typical westerner being unhappy about it. Staff was very nice and friendly, and they held our luggage for us after check out since our flight was later in the day and we were able to explore. Tied to a 24 hour cafe downstairs and they have a coin laundry attached. There is a small playground (metal slide and 2 swings) right out front of the hotel/cafe doors.

Classic futons on floor for sleeping arrangements, rooms had air conditioning. Common bathrooms with plenty of showers, never had to wait. Eating area provided toast for breakfast and a dinner menu, but we were never around in evening so did not try restaurant. Very quiet area, easy walking distance to train station.

The hotel is OK for the price range, if you're only staying for a couple days in Tokyo. Pros: - It is located blocks away from Yanaka Ginza street, great traditional spot to go get some souvenirs, textiles and street food. - 2 subway stations nearby at a walkable distance (5-10 min). - The reservation includes daily simple breakfast (pretty much toasts, coffee and tea). - While hotel has shared bathrooms, there are plenty of showers on each floor, so you don't have to worry about waiting. Cons: - The wifi service is poor and unstable, they have lots of connections, but none of them actually works, except the one on the café. - When nobody is at the front desk, it can take a while for someone from the staff to come by. - While staying, I needed to make an international phone call to contact my bank, and after explaining the situation to the guy at the front desk, he was rude and said he wouldn't let me use their phone as it would be too expensive, even though I told him I'd pay for the charges.

Staff was extremely friendly and even pointed us toward a sento that was tattoo friendly. Overall a great experience, but the room could have used one more cleaning and a table.

The rooms are a fantastic size and over sized if you’re travelling solo like I was. The property is starting to look a little dated in many areas but not to say they are all dirty, they could use an update. The only issue I found was a small amount of mould growing on the door to the balcony.

Gonna be brutally honest. The only two positive things I have to say are that the location was pretty nice, central enough but not overfilled. And that the staff I met were quite nice. However (!) the positive reviews and pics are a little deceiving. I had the traditional room and while I get that it’s meant to be simple, it didn’t have any storage opportunities. You have to store everything on the floor, basically. Also, it really annoyed me that the room didn’t have any mirror, not even a small one. Forget outfit planning unless you wanna get changed in the toilets / showers to then look at yourself in the common wash rooms! Hated that! Also, the room and the hallways smell rancid. It’s a mix of moldy smell and just “come down”. The showers are definitely come down. One of the showers smells so horribly of mold, when you stand in the common wash room and it’s open you can’t even get ready in peace. The mold is easy to spot - all over the shower ceiling. It’s literally a health hazard to be in there. Reception is only 24/7 “officially”. Unofficially I waited half an hour at the reception in the morning only to find out no one’s there except the guy responsible for the breakfast (who was rather helpful though). Speaking of breakfast - what breakfast?! First time I thought I walked in at the wrong time, but the second time confirmed it: The breakfast is literally just toast and a random soup. That’s it. Like they just wanted the “breakfast included” option …

Nippori is a nice neighborhood to stay in. The staff were polite. The room was old and worn.

One of the cheaper options in Tokyo that was available so can't complain too much.
