Hotel Asia Center of Japan

Hotel Niwa Tokyo
Putting a funky twist into traditional Japanese-style accommodation, Hotel Niwa Tokyo provides Western-style beds but Japanese screens and gardens. Although moderate in size, it has an eye for design, which creates a spacious, fresh and tranquil atmosphere. With a massage chair in the workout room, the hotel pays attention to small details, leaving you to both relax and recharge. Towards the top of the 'cheap' price range.
Kimi Ryokan
A few minutes' walk from Ikebukoro train station, this budget ryokan has the quaint touches of a traditional inn, but at a good price. The rooms have tatami mat floors and futons, but bathrooms are shared - although shower gel, soap, toothpaste etc are supplied and there's also a traditional Japanese bath. Facilities include a communal lounge, a rooftop balcony and a kitchen with a microwave and fridge, as well as a coin-operated laundry. An added bonus is that the hotel is popular with foreigners and the friendly staff all speak English.
