Hotel Fukudaya

I recently had the pleasure of staying at a wonderful Japanese hotel, and the experience was truly memorable from beginning to end. The moment I arrived, the staff welcomed me with genuine warmth and hospitality. They were incredibly accommodating, always willing to help with anything I needed—from offering local recommendations to ensuring I was comfortable throughout my stay. Their attention to detail and kindness really stood out. The atmosphere of the hotel was peaceful and calming, exactly what I was hoping for during my trip. My room was spotless, beautifully designed, and surprisingly quiet, allowing me to fully unwind after long days of exploring. I especially appreciated the thoughtful touches, such as the neatly arranged amenities and the soothing lighting that made the space feel even more relaxing. The hotel’s common areas were equally serene, and I never felt rushed or crowded. Whether enjoying a quiet breakfast or simply walking through the lobby, everything felt harmonious and well cared for. Overall, this hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. If you’re looking for a clean, quiet, and welcoming place to stay in Japan, with staff who truly go above and beyond, I highly recommend choosing this hotel for your visit.

humble but excellent hotel with traditional rooms. the rooms are small by western standards (as one would expect), but are impeccably clean and well presented. the staff are genuinely friendly and helpful. the property is well located within close walking distance to train stations.

Ryokan is a very misleading term for this, it is much closer to a hostel. I booked a Japanese style room with a “private soaking tub,” but the owner refused to acknowledge this and we ended up in a room with just a toilet (and no bidet). ||||Other downsides:||-Slippers provided don’t fit and are too difficult to use going up/down the stairs||-Walls are paper thin with hardwood floors to echo everyone else’s movements/key dropping||-The entrance is the drinking/smoking area that you have to go through every time ||-*one* communal shower room for probably 20+ people||-the one chair in our room had a stain that looked like someone’s crotch sweat (we did not touch that chair)||-no elevator, you carry your luggage yourself up the stairs (in bad slippers)||-ongoing construction that wasn’t listed at the time we were booking ||-the location isn’t that great, there are much better hotels closer to stations throughout Tokyo for the same price - this was a 15 minute walk from Shibuya uphill ||||Misleading listing with a total lack of amenities. I had significantly better experiences at other hotels in Tokyo for the same price and a much better location.

Amazing hotel for the price! Sarah at reception was fantastic. The place has this really cool, traditional vibe which I loved. The location is definitely the highlight, easily one of the best spots I’ve stayed in Tokyo. It’s right in the heart of Shibuya, super close to the Scramble Crossing and Dogenzaka, but still tucked away on a quiet street. There’s a Family Mart just around the corner, LUUP parking right at the entrance, and a bus stop about 30 seconds away with buses running every couple of minutes.

I booked a traditional style room with private toilet and bath. My room was located in the ground floor but didn’t experience any inconvenience. The host was very helpful and speaks to me in English. Check in and check out process was very smooth. I slept in a futton and it was very comfortable i loved it!

We stayed in the family tatami room. Excellent value for the size and facilities. Warm owners and friendly in service, with a family mart 2 minutes away. Shibuya crossing is 10 minutes walk but restaurants are all around! Will return!

We loved our stay at this cute little hotel. Very spacious in the family room, super clean. The location was really good and the staff was super friendly and sweet. There was this cute elderly man that was just the sweetest and so helpful :)))

Amazing stay here. Extremely welcoming staff, entire hotel is clean and cozy. Room was spacious and clean. Favorite part is that no shoes are allowed inside, so you leave them in the lobby and they give you slippers. Can't get over how comfortable the beds are. Might be difficult for some elders due to the height since beds are floor level and no elevator. Bathroom is a little small, but still okay. Otherwise we highly recommend, thank you for the wonderful stay!

Staying here for about 5 days. Love this place. It's clean, basic, and all a tourist pretty much needs. The people working here are suuuuper friendly and will definitely try their best to help you when you ask. I love how the rooms are traditional too; makes me feel like I'm living in kyoto while in the midst of central tokyo.

We booked Hotel Fukudaya through an agent in an attempt to stay in a ryokan. My husband and I stayed here in the middle of cherry blossom season and it was extremely hard to find a ryokan to book so we lucked out with this one. What we liked most about this ryokan is that it is located in the middle of the city which made it convenient to meet up with friends while in the area. The premises was clean and simple. From the Shibuya station it is about a 15 minute walk and can be a bit tricky to find. The staff is super friendly and definitely helpful. It's definitely not your 5-star hotel or a ryokan that will serve meals too.... I'm glad we only stayed one night here....
