Very clean rooms in a great location. Central to train station and Akihabara stores and sights! Trains didn't bother us at all. Staff was great, especially Izzy. Very nice cafe on site. The only negative was the very tight bathroom, but everything else made up for it.

Had the best sleep of our six night Japan trip at this hotel. Maybe it was the trains passing above us that helped us sleep well. The property is very groovy and well situated next to the Akihabara subway station. The staff was very helpful. Loved the vinyl record store next door.

The beatiful lady from Osaka has a great service, and may be the only thing it’s about space in the room but it’s a very good place to stay

The location was fantastic! Very close to transit yet a quieter station. The trains are noticeable, but it didn’t bother us. Pancakes at the cafe were tasty. A bit of a tight space tho.

Great location and I liked the room, which had more floor space than I had expected. The train noise is noticeable, but not bothersome. Will likely look to boom again if visiting Tokyo.

If you are in the Akihabara area and need a hotel with a great location and great atmosphere, you will not go wrong with Under Railway. One of the other deciding factors for this hotel is the fact that they can accommodate a large group, something that is hard to find in Tokyo, depending on your circumstances. Another possible drawback is the sound of the railway above you, but if you are anything like my siblings, a) you might not even notice it after a certain point or b) you might find it soothing.

Second time staying here, we love it. Beds are comfy and funky bunk bed set up. The train is subtle and actually helps us sleep. Can’t beat the location in Akihabara

Cool hotel in Akihabara, very convenient location. Yes, it is under the train. Yes you will hear the train. The low rumbling bass will echo down through the concrete pillars. It is part of the fun and experience. Recovering from jetlag we didn't really have trouble sleeping through the trains, but for light sleepers it will probably wake you up. The rooms are clean and neat with comfy bedding and mattresses. Bathroom is small as expected for Japan. I'm 5'11 but if you're 6'5 you might need to contort yourself a bit! We'd stay again, but maybe only for 1-2 days for the novelty. I think for a longer trip the train noises would quickly lose their novelty and make it a less than relaxing stay.
Verified review

6/10 Good

The location is quite convenient, especially if you need to fit 6 guests. The overall space is pretty claustrophobic, with lots of metal ladders and frames to bump your shins on, but there's at least enough empty space to layout luggage. The cramped quarters is the tradeoff for such a convenient location. The most unique aspect is the noise of the train running overhead. It's quite loud, so if you need it to be quiet, then this will be a deal breaker. I didn't mind the noise, and it didn't wake me as I slept but others in my group considered it too loud.

great location to shop around akihabara, and a nice small room for a solo traveler. the staff was also super helpful on things to do in the area, and where to get around for my trip back home. would definitely stay again!

Unique hotel in good location

Loved the location of this hotel - super short walk from a main station and close to the main street in Akihabara. The bathroom was pretty small but the room itself was spacious and the beds were comfortable. You can definitely hear the train but it didn't bother us.

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is in an excellent location near Akihabara Station, surrounded by convenient amenities like a pharmacy, 7-Eleven, and plenty of anime-focused shops. It’s also close to the Tamashii Nations Store, making it a great choice for Gundam fans. The rooms are clean, well-maintained, and efficiently designed. One downside is some noise from nearby train lines and a fire station, but the hotel thoughtfully provides complimentary earplugs and other amenities to help minimize the disturbance. Another major advantage is that the hotel sits on a line with direct access to the Ginza shopping district, as well as Nippori, which connects easily to the Narita Express—making airport travel very convenient.
