It's a different type of hotel, but my family and I like it. Even though its under the monorail, yes you could hear it, but it didn't bother us at all. Maybe the only downfall is the bathroom, it is small. My 3 kids loved there own beds, very comfy they said. The hotel has a Cafe which is very nice and good food and obviously a good café. I do recommend and it is close to the train station and various restaurants and stores.

So as is in the name this hotel is based underneath a railway track, due to this it can be very noisy, also there is a fire station opposite which was quite busy while we were there. However strangely within 24hrs I was used to the trains and didn't even hear them half the time. We were 3 adults and even though one bed was a double we had a bed each there was room to store suitcases a small hanging area for clothes and drawers under the bed to put clothes in. The shower worked well and there was shower gel shampoo and conditioner supplied. We also had a kettle and fridge in the room and paper cups were supplied. The hotel was ideal for accessing the station, there were shops and restaurants all around so was a perfect place to stay. They also had a small menu to purchase at the hotel if you choose. I would definitely stay at this hotel again it was perfect for our needs.

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.

The location is quite convenient, especially if you need to fit 6 guests. The overall space is pretty claustrophobic, with lots of metal ladders and frames to bump your shins on, but there's at least enough empty space to layout luggage. The cramped quarters is the tradeoff for such a convenient location. The most unique aspect is the noise of the train running overhead. It's quite loud, so if you need it to be quiet, then this will be a deal breaker. I didn't mind the noise, and it didn't wake me as I slept but others in my group considered it too loud.

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 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.

One of the worst hotel ever I experienced Not only was the noise pollution severe, but the air quality in the room was so poor that I felt as though I would fall ill after sleeping there for just two nights. There was also a foul odor of sewage and mildew coming from the bathroom. Due to the combination of noise and stench, I ended up staying only one night of my two-night reservation and moved to a different hotel the following day.

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.
