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.

This hotel is conveniently located about a five-minute walk from Akihabara Station. The entrance is at the top of a flight of stairs, so it's easy to miss if you don't notice the hotel's logo. The elevator is on the opposite side of the stairs, but it's only marked with the logo as well, so looking for the hotel name alone can make it easy to walk right past it. The room was on the small side, but that's to be expected given the excellent location, and I felt the price was reasonable. We chose a room with bunk beds, which gave us more space and made the room feel much more comfortable. Overall, we had a pleasant 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.

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.
