I had a great time staying at Wagokoro. Staffs are so friendly and extremely helpful. The place is situated in a nice and quiet neighborhood, very close to convenient store, market and a cafe. They have a nice kitchen set up and it feels so much cozier than your regular hotel stay. Will definitely make this my stay if I'm back in Tokyo again,

This hostel is clean and located at convinient area. There are supermarket and cafe nearby. Facility and cleanness are pretty fine and it has a lot of Japanese-style room (Wa-shitsu). Staff service is also brilliant however, this side of the station isn't tourist area and nothing to see.

great stay!

We stayed in a 2-bed room for 10 nights. You should expect the bathroom to be small, but it has everything we needed. The hotel has a common area kitchen, which we didn't use much, but also the room itself had a little fridge and a table. There is a laundromat literally across the street if you need to do laundry. The staff was SO nice the entire time!!! We really enjoyed our stay here while in Japan!

The staff and service here is excellent! One of the best that we've ever encountered. They took the initiative to recommend us places to play and eat, and also helped readily with our requests. I lost my hat on a bus and they helped me to contact the bus company, and managed to get back my hat! Especially, the lady at the counter. I unfortunately did not ask her for her name, but she speaks Chinese and always started a conversation with us - which was nice!

The room we stayed in was a little small for 4 people, and we had to take turns showering. But overall, the room is very clean and the staff took initiative in cleaning our room too.

The location was not bad, if you prefer to live in a little neighbourhood. It's really quiet, even at night. There's a really big supermarket nearby and a very good bakery. It's also not very far from the station. There's 2 stations in close proximity.

Overall, I highly recommend this hostel and I will stay here again! (But maybe not with 4 people)

This was a great place to stay and super affordable for all the amenities that are offered. The people who work there are SO NICE and helpful. It is well located in a cute neighbourhood near a cool bakery/coffee shop/book store and a 8-10 minute walk from Nippori station on the Yamanote sen - near Ueno Park and other east-side attractions. Very convenient to get to Narita. We stayed in a Japanese style room with access to the a little outside area (more to look at then go out in). The room was immaculate and efficient. I was there with my family- a little small for four people but fine for one night. There is a common room with a kitchen and fridge.

Nippori Textile Town Accommodation

Hi, the Hostel Wagokoro was meticulously CLEAN (to the point of over the top eg the lift smelled like it had been recently drowned in chemicals every time we entered it). Room service was great...very responsive and pleasant staff. I'd recomment one or two persons to a room. We had three and there was very little space to move, store belongings etc. Well located for those interested in textiles...5 min walk from the Nippori Textile Town - and equally 5 minuts walk to Nippori Station, so great for getting around Tokyo and very convenient to get to Narita Airport.

We absolutely loved our stay at Wagokoro Nippori. The hotel is small, cozy and welcoming — which for us was perfect, as we prefer this kind of atmosphere over large, business-style hotels.

The staff were amazing: professional but also genuinely kind and caring, always available to help and making us feel at home.

For European travelers: rooms are in line with Japanese standards, so not very large, but with a bit of organization they are totally comfortable. Everything was spotless, and the shared area was very well organized.

The location is also excellent for getting around Tokyo.

Highly recommended — we would definitely stay here again!
