Hotel Fukudaya

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!

Nice, authentic Japanese hotel about a 7 minute walk away from the craziness that is Shibuya crossing. The hotel was undergoing some needed Renovations during our stay. The hosts were friendly and helpful. The room had a step down into the washroom. A little issue when using the facilities during the night. the floor cushions for sleeping were actually fairly comfortable. This is a good choice if you want to feel like you stayed in Japan and not at the holiday Inn somewhere.

Owners are very nice and patient to English speakers. They allowed us to store our luggage earlier while we waited until our check in time. Laundry machine is 2 minutes away from the building in case you need to wash.

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.

A big thank you to the excellent staff and manager at the hotel. They are professional and accommodating. The manager was so nice to apologize about shipping luggage, there was no need as the shipment is done by another company 🫡; for those who wish to ship, you need to ship two days ahead, however, it is close to the hotel. The hotel also has detailed instructions on how to fill the form 🙏. They have a bath and shower. Each room has a restroom with an incredible bidet! I love their Japanese-style room design. It is hard to see and experience tatami rooms nowadays without going to a ryokan. I am glad to see the continued tradition. Despite nestled in Shibuya, the hotel stands out with its traditional and modern design. Possibly my favorite hotel in Tokyo.

We’ve just ended our stay at the Hotel Fukudaya - it was wonderful. The beds were so comfortable, the bath was amazing, and the hotel was quiet but also very accessible. Thank you to the lovely staff!

Great hotel. Desk staff speak good English and are keen to welcome you on entry every time. Room service is good and the hotel is clean throughout. Bus stop right outside. Family Mart too. Train station about 8 minutes walk.

An absolute hidden gem of a hotel with such fantastic value for money! The staff are incredibly kind and the facilities are very clean and comfortable. I love the traditional elements of a Japanese inn with all the modern comforts you could want. Very quiet and peaceful neighborhood, we slept so well! Lots of great restaurants and shopping nearby. The location requires a bit of a walk or bus ride from the nearest train stations, but a taxi ride could easily solve this.

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....
