The amenities exceeded expectations! The value provided by this establishment was solid and felt at home after a long day of walking and exploring Tokyo. I would greatly recommend this for those travelling solo and is looking for an easy, convenient, and comfortable stay. The location was also a great bonus as I was able to do some last minute shopping before my checkout as it was super close to the station.

Excellent location close to the Akihabara station, friendly staff (most of whom speak very good English), lots of secure storage, good facilities, free breakfast and some snacks during the day, free drinks and many other reasons to stay here! I have stayed in capsule hotels in the past and this is definitely the best one I have stayed in.

Anshin Oyado capsule hotel or I should say capsule-tel, is the finest in it's form of hotel services and management. This breaks new ground for so many hostels around the world, especially in Southeast Asia that want to be on par with personalized and automated hotel services. Right from the checkin, patrons can store their belongings in lockers, changed into comfy wear, take a shower or dip in the pool, just to chillax! After that the patron can adjourn to the second floor to enjoy some snacks or food (depending whether it's breakfast or late dinner) or just enjoy a drink whether it's alcoholic or nonalcoholic, tea or coffee. Then patrons can read an extensive collection of anime comics, of course if one reads Japanese. And when it's said and done, the individual can retire to his capsule and just dream away. So what's provided? Toothbrush, toothpaste, 2 kinds of mouthwashes, many branfs of shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. Shavers, shaving cream, and varrious hair styling gel and cream are provided. Bathing and face towels, bathing rugto clean the body and hair dryers. That's only grooming needs. As for food, patrons can enjoy cooked meals, and soft drinks, liquors, cooffee, and tea. In the lounge area, patrons can also enjoy massaging chairs. In your capsule, there's a controllable light, a fan, and three types of USB chargers. My last words to those who want to stay there is, please follow the rules!

“Denkigai Den Luxurious Anshin Oyado”

Situated right in the heart of Akihabara, accessible to JREast trains and the Tokyo subway lines. A patron is well suited to be electrified wherever he goes in a jiffy, if he knows where he's going.

Situated right in the heart of Akihabara, accessible to JREast trains and the Tokyo subway lines. A patron is well suited to be electrified wherever he goes in a jiffy, if he knows where he's going. As a matter of fact I visited four great historical sites, two in Yokohama, and the other two in Tokyo (not far from Akihabara). And, I did it all in eight hours!!!!​ That's why this capsule hotel is such a great place for travellers like me. Secondly, Akihabara has the best (inexpensive) sushi, and it's more or less, a hundred metres from the capsule hotel. Moreover, there are many great Western foods all in the heart of Akihabara Station. Thirdly, if you're a manga fan, and love Japanese anime and animations, Akihabara is the world's capital for everything in manga comics, figurines, models, anime fantasies, collections, modelling of figurines, etc, etc, etc. My favourite is the Kamen Rider! Fourth, I had previously reviewed the Anshin Oyado Akihabara Capsule hotel. In fact, I was amazed by the capsule's amenities, hospitable staff, free foods (both in the mornings and (late) evenings), the assortment of beverages ranging from alcoholic and non-alcoholic, massage chairs, a Japanese dipping pool for relaxation, and sauna. Having said that, I appreciate the Japanese staff at Anshin Oyado Akihabara, greatly, because they're so hardworking and mindlessly keeping the place clean and functional. That's the 'Bushido' discipline of every Japanese in the country. However, if and only if, communication is effectively available, especially to foreigners. As a person, we only can (only) be effective and efficient if communication is perhaps better done procedurely...like for example information is explained in the relevant websites or the capsule's pamphlets. Japan has four seasons, the tropics in Southeast Asia only one. So, when Spring comes, rain is abundant in Japan. Umbrellas, shoes, raincoats, etc, can wet and dirty the premises. So, my suggestions to the staff is simple... Offer your instructions on what to do and how to do before patrons or customers enter the hotel. Like for example, make information about drying the shoes, if they're wet, and not put them at the entrance racks. (They need to request the reception staff for a shoe drying equipment to assist them to dry their shoes.) Make sure to leave the umbrellas at the racks. And lastly, no one should walk in the premises with any kinds of shoes. Remember, we can only be effective and not mindlessly lackadaisical if information is readily available. However, there could be patrons who're indeed ignorant. To that the hotel can introduce (financial) penalties, not only to curb ignorant behaviour but also a 'fine' contribution to the hotel.
