CITAN Hostel

Superb location, with three subway lines 5' walk from the hostel (including the one connecting both airports) and another handful 10-15' away. Quite a few eateries nearby, including local and international food. A few supermarkets very near too. The hostel itself features a gourmet coffee shop and a cocktail bar, and both get their fair share of customers from morning till late in the evening, but the place never gets too noisy. Staff is plentiful and friendly, dorm rooms are quiet, and beds spacious and comfy. Never had to wait to use the bathroom or shower rooms.

Tokyo is my favourite city in the world, and Halloween is my favourite holiday and that is precisely what makes me go to Tokyo every year for this wonderful event. This year, I stayed in CITAN: - the location is pretty convenient, there's many places to eat and convenient stores all around. As well as a few train stations which was great for getting around. - it's a close walking distance to Akiba and Asakusa! - many many friendly people! I met so many wonderful people and partied twice in the common area! it's definitely a social place. - staff were very nice! They showed me where to go to ship my luggage to my next destination and tried to help me find somewhere to do my nails and looked for my scarf when I lost it. - there's plugs in the shower rooms for me to do my hair and they provide shampoo, conditioner and shower gel! - there's a great bar downstairs, and a cafe near the reception which has great coffee! Overall great experience!

Four train/subway lines 5' walk from the hostel, hence SUPER convenient to reach sights etc in in all areas of Tokyo, as well as direct connection to both airports. Quite a few choices of both local and international cuisine from breakfast to dinner and beyond, as well as supermarkets and CVS alike. The hostel itself is tucked in a quiet street, and is very welcoming and comfy. It caters to passbyers too, hence the coffee shop and underground cocktail bar get very lively, especially the latter on Fri/Sat as a DJ comes to play live music. Mon through Thu there is also a different food truck everyday parked just outside the main entrance. The kitchen and common area for guests are small but well organized, and seldom get too busy. I had nice breakfasts there every day. The rooms are Spartan but convenient, with large beds and comfy mattresses as well as lockers. Shower rooms are nice and plentiful with special amenities from the neighborhood.

Big & clean room, great cafe / bar and wonderful staff. Really good value, as long as you don't mind not having an ensuite bathroom - we had a sink in our room which was perfect for us.

Great hostel in a central location close to public transport options. Cafe and bar gave it everything you needed and a really cool vibe. Rooms and facilities were clean and comfortable, and at an extremely high standard compared to what we expected for a hotel.
