We enjoyed our stay at The Tourist Hotel and Cafe Akihabara. Location is on a quiet side street away from the hustle and bustle but only a short 6 min walk to Akihabara station. Check in was smooth and staff were friendly and helpful. Free coffee 24hrs a day. The rooms were small compared to North American standards but still had room for luggage storage under the raised platform the holding the futons. The cafe itself had a small menu but pastries were fresh and tasty. Lots of small restaurants nearby to check out.
Close-ish to the jr station and the Ginza line. Definitely on the quieter side of Akihabara.
Wasn't the cleanest...lots of hair and random detritus on the bed platform and window ledge.
Internet/wifi speed is mediocre.
Other than that, the room layout is actually quite good. Very functional and usable floor plan...lots of room to place your suitcase.
Excellent hotel at a great price point. Just close enough to the main Akihabara shopping area and train station, but just far enough to be quiet and not busy. Great amenities like free coffee all day, free bottled water, toothbrush and razors and pajamas and slippers provided . Can't think of one thing wrong with this stay

Very good hotel if you’re on a budget. The hotel is in good condition. Room size is typical Tokyo hotel and the mattress is firm. There is a cafe on the main floor but we didn’t eat there. Staff can make you black coffee 24/7. Location is convenient with major department stores like Yodobashi and Bic within walking distance.

This was one of the most convenient hotels we stayed in. It's super close to the Akihabara jr station. And it was one of the only hotels where the staff all spoke English. I would recommend this if you do not speak any Japanese whatsoever. However we find that it lacking in the Japanese hospitality. It just feels like any hotel you could stay in, any country. It's got no soul.
Very simple check in process, nice staff. Amenities provided are decent. Great value for the price. Unfortunately I found blood stains on the bed scarf (if that what it's called) which I wasn't particularly impressed with - pretty minor though so I'll give it a pass.
A short walk from one of the main train stations in the city, good restaurants nearby, spacious rooms, very attentive staff who are well versed in multiple languages, and great coffee! Loved my stay here, and would come back with family.
We really like the hotel. Beds and comforters are very comfortable. The location is very quiet but very safe. Family Mart is just across from the hotel which make it very convenient if you need something in the last minutes or need some ready to eat food. This hotel is very good for family.
Absolutely perfect. I'm so glad I picked this property for our honeymoon stay. The staff was incredibly kind, the premises were genuinely the cleanest I've ever seen, and they even have a free amenities dresser. 10/10 stay. Will absolutely return in the future.
Stayed there during the summer.
No AC in the elevator which felt really hot and stuffy inside.
And since the hallway is open air, it can also get very hot standing in the hallway waiting for elevator.
Otherwise good location and clean room.
We had such a great time at the Tourist Hotel @ Cafe Akihabara, the rooms were well laid out and spacious for Tokyo standards, but in particular the attention and care paid to us by the staff was exceptional. They were very attentive and helpful throughout our stay including when we had to make unexpected changes midway through our trip. Will definitely be staying here again.
Perfect location in Akihabara area - it's about 10 mins walk from Akihabara station. It's located on the other side of Akihabara Electric Town so it's more quiet and less crowd. Also it's within a walking distance to Ueno area as well.
The family room is spacious which give you enough space to place you open & pack your suitcase.
