Tokyo Hostels

Hi, I'm Cade Spencer and I'm a professional Hairdresser. I have traveled to a lot of cities, particularly Tokyo, and have been staying mainly in Hostels. My experience with hostels has been truly enjoyable: they are a great way to save a bit of money while having a memorable experience with other travelers.

From Hostels with cozy dorms, to those that come with private bathrooms, I have experienced it all. The owners of the Hostels are always willing to help, often giving advice about the city and helping out with whatever local cuisine I may have wanted to try.

The location of each Hostel is crucial, as I want to be close to the city and its tourist attractions. I make sure that the Hostel I book is in a safe area and well connected to the public transport. Many of them even offer bicycles and cars for rent which really helps to get around.

Each Hostel has its own little touches which I really enjoy. They are more than just a cheap place to sleep, they are homely and give off a warm feeling. I have even seen some Hostels with onsite bars, offering a great night out with your friends, a chance to mingle with other travelers, and have a lot of fun.

I have created a list of the Best Hostels in Tokyo that I have visited or want to visit, which are worth choosing for a great and exciting journey.
