We had a brief but lovely stay at Wagokoro. It is an easy 10 minute walk from Nippori station, perfect after a long flight into the country. The hostel is new and tidy with a nice common area. Staff were friendly and welcoming even when we were checking in at 10pm.

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!

Staying at Wagokoro becomes one part of our Japan journey. Staffs are all friendly and helpful in any way possible. Room is cleaned daily. Nippori station is 7-9 mins walk away. It’s perfect in almost everything.

The best ever experience

I spent 3 nights and 4 days with my family here. 1. All the employees are very friendly and professional. 2. All facilities are very clean and there is a lounge where you can eat or work. 3. There are many delicious restaurants and good supermarkets nearby. 4. The accommodation is not far from Nippori Station, so it is convenient to move inside Tokyo. I want to visit again next time. Thank you.

Franchement super hôtel, et un accueil plus que chaleureux ! On a été si bien accueilli que vraiment je reviendrai. Cancernant les chambres, le lit est de taille normal pour Tokyo, la chambre est bien aménagé donc il a de l’espace pour circuler, il a tous les nécessaires de toilette et même un Yukata ! L’hôtel est à 8min du métro, et il y a une super boulangerie sur le chemin. J’ai adoré finir notre circuit dans ce quartier calme et résidentiel, ce qui nous a permis de nous relaxer sur la fin. Donc merci à l’équipe !

친구들, 가족들과 묵기 좋은 숙소입니다.

서비스가 친절하고, 침대 컨디션도 좋습니다. 화장실이 작은 것은 살짝 아쉽습니다. 다음에도 여기서 묵고 싶습니다. 니시-닛포리역까지는 넉넉잡아서 걸어서 10분이면 갑니다. (골목이 예뻐서 걸어서 가도 좋습니다) 닛포리역까지는 12분 정도 걸립니다. 근처에 무인세탁실, 훼미리마트, 동네마트가 있어서 먹을 거 사기도 좋습니다.

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)
