Grids Tokyo Ueno Hotel&Hostel

Great location near Ueno Station (Iriyaguchi Exit) and convenience stores. The room was comfortable with all the necessary amenities. The breakfast was simple and very reasonably priced. Good value overall!

I recently stayed at Grids during a summer trip, choosing a multi-bunk bed room for its affordability. While the stay had some positive aspects, there were a few areas that could use improvement, which I hope can be helpful feedback for future guests and the hotel. Upon entering the room, I noticed an unpleasant smell, somewhat like foot odor, which was particularly noticeable in the warm summer weather. Better ventilation or more frequent cleaning could make a big difference in creating a fresher and more welcoming environment. It wasn’t unbearable, but it did impact the overall comfort of the stay. The room itself was basic, with standard bunk beds that were functional. Unfortunately, no complimentary towels (you have to pay to get it) which was a bit inconvenient, especially for travelers who might not bring their own. Including these small essentials would go a long way in improving the guest experience, even in a budget-friendly setting. On the brighter side, the staff were friendly and approachable, though they seemed stretched thin at times. The hotel’s location was also a plus, with easy access to Ueno station, making it convenient for exploring the area. Overall, my stay at Grids was okay but could be improved with better attention to room freshness and basic amenities like towels. For budget travelers, it’s a decent option, but these small changes could make it much more enjoyable. I hope the hotel considers these tweaks for future guests!

I really liked this hostel, the location is great, very close to Ueno station. There are many restaurants and shops nearby and Ueno Park. You can store your luggage under your bed, and there is enough space to sleep.

Would be nice if you serve towel and other amenities. But overall i really love the vibe and hostel ❤️

The location is quite close to one of the Ueno station entrances, so it's quite convenient. The bed is kinda hard and not comfortable. And the bunk bed stairs are hard to climb, so it feels dangerous when you want to go down at night.

Nice place, I really love it but a little bit far away from the station, not convenient for traveler who brings a large baggage.
