This isn't my first time to Tokyo but it is my first staying in a typical Japanese neighbourhood and it was surprisingly fun! Settled in a calm, quiet setting, you are away from the hustle and bustle of the nearby Ikebukuro "city center", you get to see what the locals do and where the shop during the day. It's more...

This is a small, Japanese style hotel in a working class neighborhood of Tokyo. The owners will pick you up at the Ikebukuro train station on your arrival, as you would have a difficult time (as a foreigner) finding the place on your own (don't worry, the owners will give you a neighborhood map when you get there).

Nice, clean and quite well located... The best: the people working in this family inn makes you feel at home. Very kind and helpful. To improve: the small breakfast could be better!!!

To start off with, my husband and I highly recommend this inn. Look no further, this is it. It is a great combination of location, Japanese experience, and value. We spent 6 nights at the Saiko Inn. It is located in a cozy residential neighbourhood. Having lived myself in Japan before, I was happy that my husband was able to... More

We realy enjoyed our stay at Saiko Family Inn. Located in a nice residential neighbourhood, with shops and restaurants nearby, just west of Ikkebukoro it provides a homely feel in nice rooms. Highly recommended!
