8.3Verified guest“The comfortable bed and roomy capsule made for a cozy stay, though the shared bathroom layout and the absence of elevators were annoying. The sauna and leisure area were a nice plus, and we loved visiting nearby spots like Ueno Park and Senso-ji; these outings brought our family closer.”
8.3Verified guest“I really enjoyed the central heating, a private safe, and multi-channel TV in the room. The location was great—right next to Narita airport and near Ueno Park, shopping, restaurants, and Ueno station/metro. Had a pleasant evening at Iseroku Uenoten, just by the venue.”

8.3Verified guest“I stayed two nights at this capsule hotel during my recent trip, and it was fantastic. The location is perfect, a short walk from a beautiful park. The capsules are roomy and fitted with modern technology that feels like home. I liked how clean everything was, from fresh sheets and towels each day to shared showers with all essentials. The lounge was inviting, and I liked having multiple bathrooms and washing facilities on each floor.”
