The Barn Tokyo

I love this hôtel so much. Thank you Rin for being the best host. Bed was super comfortable, shower was super new, atmospheric and consistent. And the location - couldn’t be more perfect! This was my second stat, and I know I am going to stay here without a doubt the next time I’m in Tokyo! Arigato gozaimasda!

I can’t really add anything different than the other reviewers, but wanted to recognize the excellent stay we had here. I wanted a hotel that would be a quiet respite and this delivered. The neighborhood is residential and quiet, but less than a 5 minute walk to the train station, which is on the Yamanote line. The rooms are big (for Japan), the beds are comfortable, the hotel is spotless and May and her family and staff were both warm and wonderful. Convenience stores, restaurants and a grocery store are all a short walk away (plus a Don Quixote was getting ready to open next to the train station in April 2024). We utilized their laundry services and late checkout, which were both very worth the nominal fees. I’m so glad I stumbled across The Barn Tokyo in Travel + Leisure’s roundup of best boutique hotels in Tokyo. I will definitely stay here again.

Really good value, small hotel in the Ueno area. As other reviewers have noted, the soundproofing of the rooms isn’t great but - for the price - it’s a comfortable, well equipped hotel. Staff are extremely welcoming and helpful. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly option in the Ueno area of Tokyo I suspect you’d struggle to find better.

This hotel was in a really good location, being only a few minutes from the train station and a quick walk from Ueno Park. It was clean and comfortable! I did find the bathroom setup to be a bit unusual with the sink being next to the bed. The soundproofing in the hotel isn't fantastic due to the style of the hotel, which is completely understandable but worth noting. Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful!

A great small boutique hotel in the heart of Ueno, Tokyo. Everything's great, from the location, room, facilities and the staff! They are all very hospitable, friendly, caring and very helpful! The room is very comfy and bigger than normal hotel rooms in Tokyo. And ultimately only 4 minutes walk to the train station! Will come back again for sure!

The Barn is certainly a hidden gem in a quiet Tokyo neighbourhood, new and modern, spotlessly clean and comfortable room. Staff were so welcoming and the benefit for us was only a five minute walk to the train station with suitcases. We were recommended to visit Euno Park just a 20 minute walk away and enjoyed wandering the gardens and zoo, also several museums in the Park. A meal at nearby Sapporo restaurant is highly recommended - very traditional local cuisine cooked on hot plate at your table by the friendly owner. The Barns location is great!

This was an excellent hotel, located not far from the station on the circle line (Yamanote line) and easy walk to Ueno park. Rooms very comfortable and clean, made to feel welcome by staff and enjoyed our 2 stays here. Probably the best hotel we stayed in on our trip!! Thank you!😀

The staff were amazing! We initially dropped off our bags, by the time we got to our hotel room, everything was placed in our room for us. We did laundry service and we had fresh, neatly folded clothes the next day. We will definitely be coming back!! It was super convenient to get to the train station. There were many food options around the hotel as well. We would recommend this place for anyone visiting Japan!
