About this property

Sleeps 11 | 110㎡ 3BR Maisonette | Ikebukuro 5 Min by Train | Tatami | 10G Wi-Fi

Welcome to YayoiHotel.
Traditional Japanese charm meets modern comfort: your own "home in Tokyo."

Unlike a cramped hotel room, this is a spacious 110㎡ maisonette, all to yourselves. It's a place for families and close friends to relax, talk and create memories you won't forget.

✨ 5 Reasons Guests Choose Us ✨
・[Generous 110㎡, 3LDK (3 bedrooms + living/dining/kitchen)] A spacious, fully private space where up to 11 guests can stay comfortably.
・[A new kind of ryokan experience] The comfort of tatami and futon, together with a 4K TV, Wi-Fi on a 10G line and modern air conditioning.
・[5 minutes to Ikebukuro by train] Great access to central Tokyo, yet a surprisingly quiet and calm neighborhood.
・[Two shopping streets to explore] A lively arcade and a friendly local shopping street. Stroll through everyday Tokyo.
・[Everything you'd hope for] Cookware and beautiful tableware, plus a washing machine and a powerful gas dryer. Settle in for a long stay with just a small bag.

[The Rooms]

[Ground floor | A living and dining room for gathering, talking and relaxing]
The spacious living room at the heart of the home is the best seat for the whole group. Watch a movie on the 50-inch Sony 4K TV, or sit around the large dining table and talk. Spend your time however you like.

The kitchen is stocked with well-designed traditional craft tableware and cookware. More than just cooking, we hope the time you spend around the table with your companions becomes a special memory.

A powerful washing machine with a gas dryer is also provided (free, detergent included). It's reassuring on rainy days and long stays, and lets you pack much lighter.

[Bedrooms | Japanese calm, Western comfort]
The ground floor has two bedrooms with different character.
・Japanese-style room: a calm space like a room in a ryokan. Sleep soundly on tatami with the scent of rush grass.
・Western-style room: two double beds and double-glazed windows for quiet. A peaceful place to recover from a day of travel.

[Upper floor | A Japanese-style room like your own hideaway]
Upstairs is another Japanese-style room. Nostalgic and warm, it feels like a family home in Japan. A large closet (oshiire) also makes it a good base for long stays.

[Bathrooms | A more comfortable start and end to each day]
There is one toilet on each floor, so even large groups can use them without worry. The clean shower room is stocked with quality Seven Premium amenities. Refresh body and mind at the end of the day.
*Pajamas, razors and skincare products are not provided.

---

[Modern facilities for a comfortable stay]

・Clean air: Daikin air conditioners with an air-purifying function in every room.
・Free fast Wi-Fi: Wi-Fi on a 10G line (measured approx. 778 Mbps). Comfortable even when many people use it at once, for video streaming and remote work.
・Self check-in: Smart lock, so you can arrive at your own pace (door code sent after booking).
・Check-in 4:00 PM / Check-out 10:00 AM (please ask in advance for early check-in or late check-out)

---

[Neighborhood | A town where you can travel like a local]

About 10 minutes on foot from Oyama Station (Tobu Tojo Line, South Exit), through the Happy Road Oyama shopping street (the shopping street itself is about 4 minutes away). You'll feel real everyday Tokyo here. A convenience store and a late-night supermarket are within a 3-minute walk, so daily shopping is easy.

The real charm of this area is its two distinctive shopping streets.

・Happy Road Oyama shopping street: a covered arcade of about 560 m with roughly 200 shops: supermarkets, convenience stores, drugstores, casual restaurants, cafés and izakaya. Comfortable even in the rain.
・Yuza Oyama shopping street: a local street lined with old-fashioned greengrocers and Japanese confectioners. Take a stroll and meet the warmth of old Tokyo.

[Getting around, with more fun and freedom]
・Shared mobility LUUP: our bicycle parking area is a LUUP port (2 spaces)! Rent an electric-assist bicycle or e-scooter with just your phone and explore Tokyo with the wind in your face. (LUUP app registration and a separate fee are required.)
・Ikebukuro is about 5 minutes by train, no transfer needed.

[Travel times by train]
Ikebukuro 5 min / Shinjuku 20 min / Ueno 27 min / Ginza 28 min / Akihabara 33 min / Haneda Airport approx. 1 hr / Narita Airport approx. 1 hr 30 min–2 hr (limousine bus between Ikebukuro Station and Narita Airport approx. 1 hr 40 min) / Tokyo Disneyland approx. 1 hr

Kaaiai Vacation

My family and I had to wonderful stay! The house was very clean and included all the necessities! The location was ideal, within walking distance to many great places to eat, including a nearby 7-11, a nearby grocery store, and a short walk to the train station. The host was very accommodating and helpful and responded immediately to my requests! My family and I look forward to our return!

For our group of 5 the size of the unit worked out very well. There was room for all to eat at the same table. Kitchen was well stocked (but I would prefer ceramic dishes/mugs over wood looking plastic ones). Location had good access to restaurants and grocery stores within 15 minute walk.Note that second floor bedroom is accessed by a steep staircase (narrow treads) with no handrail.

Hi Tom, Thank you so much for staying with us and for taking the time to write a review on VRBO. I’m glad to hear that the house size and dining area worked well for your group. I also truly appreciate your private feedback regarding the amenities. Your suggestions are very helpful for us. We will definitely look into adding trash cans and towel bars to the bathrooms. Regarding the dishes and the shower mat, we will work on replacing them with more comfortable and microwave-safe options to improve the guest experience. Thank you again for helping us improve our home. We hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future. Best regards, Billy YayoiHotel

Nice Hotel in a Safe Neighborhood

The owners are very friendly, attentive, and quick to communicate. The hotel itself is off a Main Street and near the bus station and train station. It’s a few minutes by taxi to Sunshine City, which has amazing food and shopping. The hotel is quite spacious with three bedrooms. We had a party of 8 that fit quite nicely. One room has two Western beds, while the other two rooms have traditional Japanese beds. There’s a dining room, full kitchenette, futon (that also can double as a bed), two showers, a bathroom on each level, tv, free wi-fi, and a washer & dryer. It’s literally everything you could need!There’s also an e-scooter rental next to the property. A short walk and there are many restaurants (ramen, udon, Tex-Mex steakhouse), and a 7-11. Walk a little further and there’s more shopping, including two boba tea places (both good), many restaurants, and a grocery store. Keep walking and you’ll run into a really nice area with bustling city life. Outside of sightseeing and specific neighborhoods for shopping, a 7-17 minute walk could get me absolutely everything my family and I needed (medicine, water, meals, groceries, coffee, etc.). Worth noting: the water pressure in the shower heads are wonderfully strong. No issues with water pressure when two folks are using both showers and running the washer. Overall: AI have included some photos of interesting places within a few minutes walking distance, & sushi from a local grocery stores for under 1,000 JPY.
