MyCUBE Tokyo Capsule Hotel Review: Premium Solo Stay in Asakusa

​

​

This isn't your average Tokyo capsule hotel.

Welcome to my review of a premium, elevated solo stay.

​

​

Every single bed here is a bottom-tier unit,

completely eliminating the hassle of climbing a ladder.

​

Plus, you can keep your suitcase fully open

and securely locked right underneath you.

​

​

These two massive perks alone

made this stay infinitely better than any other capsule hotel I've visited.

​

​

Here are the top 5 reasons

why I absolutely loved this accommodation.

​

​

1. Every Room is a Bottom Bunk

​

All capsule beds are on the ground level.

​

This means the ceilings are much higher than standard capsules,

and you get a very clear sense of personal space.

​

Because there's no top bunk,

you don't have to deal with the squeaking or thumping sounds

of someone climbing up or tossing and turning above you.

​

Best of all, from the bed to the storage to the ceiling,

the entire vertical space is yours alone!

​

​

​

​

2. Massive Under-Bed Storage

​

Right underneath the bed is a spacious compartment

where you can store your suitcase fully opened.

​

This was a game-changer.

I didn't have to constantly zip and unzip my bag

every time I needed something.

​

Plus, this storage space

can be securely locked with a physical key.

​

​

​

​

3. Premium Capsule Amenities

​

The basic facilities are incredibly high-quality.

​

​

Each bed comes equipped with a TV, mirror, indoor slippers,

a shelf, headphones, a safety deposit box, an alarm system,

hangers, a 110V outlet, USB ports,

and a dedicated amenity bag.

​

Inside the amenity bag, I found 3 types of towels, pajamas,

and a disposable toothbrush and toothpaste kit.

​

​

​

​

Shampoo, conditioner, body wash,

hairdryers, extra toothbrushes, and cotton swabs

were all fully stocked in the shower area.

​

​

The shower rooms are private, single-occupancy stalls (3 total).

​

Inside each stall, there's a shelf, hangers, a trash can,

and a basket, giving you plenty of space

to get ready comfortably.

​

​

​

​

The restrooms were also

located right inside the guest floor.

​

They were exceptionally clean and spacious,

and I never felt like it was crowded during my stay.

​

There's also a separate laundry room with coin-operated machines,

which is perfect for long-term travelers!

​

​

​

​

4. Gender-Separated Floors

​

There are no mixed-gender dorms here.

​

To press your floor button in the elevator,

you have to tap your keycard.

​

This keeps you completely separated not just from outsiders,

but also from guests on other floors, making it feel incredibly safe.

(No worries about lost luggage or trespassers!)

​

​

​

​

5. The Location

​

Because I usually stay around Shinjuku

whenever I travel to Tokyo,

I initially thought this location might be a bit awkward.

​

But I couldn't have been more wrong.

​

It was actually super convenient for getting around the city.

​

​

Up on the reception floor of the MyCUBE capsule hotel,

there is a fantastic communal lounge.

​

It's outfitted with plenty of outlets,

so you'll see people working on their laptops,

while others just kick back and relax on the comfy sofas.

​

This is also the designated spot for eating any food you bring in!

​

​

​

​

That wraps up my review of the capsule hotel

I stayed at during my recent trip to Tokyo.

​

Out of all the solo accommodations I've tried,

the room quality here is top-tier,

and I was endlessly satisfied with the experience.
