I really enjoyed my stay at this hostel. They accommodate people from all over the world! It's close to the subway station and it only takes 15-20 min to Shibuya. If you donät mind staying in dorms, this place is great for you. It's cheap and the staff is friendly!

The positive reviews must be from long ago. I can tell the place used to be quite popular, but it needs serious updating and cleaning. I'm not that picky but they literally hadn't wiped the sink down in at least a week, there were chunks of food and junk all over the kitchen and main areas, the entire outlet didn't... More

Nice hostel, similar to a 3 stars hotel in Europe. Friendly staff and really good location! close to JR and subway station. There are a lot of restaurants and family market just around the corner. The price is really good for the value! The only bad thing I can say is that the rooms are too smalls, the double bed... More

Stayed here for 3 nights (left one day early) with my sister recently. The pictures here and on hostel booking websites all showed lots of younger people having fun, a pool table and a bar area. None of these were present when we were there. The bar and pool table were simply nonexistent, so those were misadvertised. It seems this... More

I stayed here for 3 nights intially, location was great close to subway and JR Ueno St, walking distances, at least for me, and it is walking distance from Asakusa. Staff is friendly, when I decided to stay longer, there was a Japanese person who doesnt speak english, but he has flash cards to communicate, after explain my desire, in... More

Went in the quiet time of year, as this was my first solo trip and totally mistook how long it would get there, luckily at 12:30AM they were still open and I was served by a very nice oldish gentleman who didnt know much english but was very helpful and was happy i didnt get lost. I met a fellow... More

Without question my favourite hostel in Japan! There were a number of things which made this a cut above the rest i stayed at and they included: 1) The price. This has got to be the cheapest hostel in tokyo and still fairs better than some of the more expensive places i stayed at. 2) The people and environment. Being... More

This was my first major bit of travelling alone and i could think of nowhere better to visit than Japan! After checking out hostelworld i found Bakpak Tokyo hostel and decided to book as i was in my last few weeks in Japan and was low on cash. I didn't really know what to expect as i had stayed in...

One of the worst hostels I've been in. First of all - the pool table in their pictures is broken so you cant use it. If you go in winter like I did, there was no blankets provided and no heating... I had to wear all my clothes at once to stay warm. The communal bathrooms were filthy as was... More
