Had the best sleep of our six night Japan trip at this hotel. Maybe it was the trains passing above us that helped us sleep well. The property is very groovy and well situated next to the Akihabara subway station. The staff was very helpful. Loved the vinyl record store next door.

If you are in the Akihabara area and need a hotel with a great location and great atmosphere, you will not go wrong with Under Railway. One of the other deciding factors for this hotel is the fact that they can accommodate a large group, something that is hard to find in Tokyo, depending on your circumstances. Another possible drawback is the sound of the railway above you, but if you are anything like my siblings, a) you might not even notice it after a certain point or b) you might find it soothing.

The hotel is in an excellent location near Akihabara Station, surrounded by convenient amenities like a pharmacy, 7-Eleven, and plenty of anime-focused shops. It’s also close to the Tamashii Nations Store, making it a great choice for Gundam fans. The rooms are clean, well-maintained, and efficiently designed. One downside is some noise from nearby train lines and a fire station, but the hotel thoughtfully provides complimentary earplugs and other amenities to help minimize the disturbance. Another major advantage is that the hotel sits on a line with direct access to the Ginza shopping district, as well as Nippori, which connects easily to the Narita Express—making airport travel very convenient.

Unique hotel in good location

Loved the location of this hotel - super short walk from a main station and close to the main street in Akihabara. The bathroom was pretty small but the room itself was spacious and the beds were comfortable. You can definitely hear the train but it didn't bother us.

The room smelled immediately of wet carpet/ dirty socks upon entering the room. Bedding was a bit damp feeling, come to find out there's condensation that drips onto one of the beds with the temperature change. Would have been nice to know ahead of time.
