HI Tokyo Central is located in the center of Tokyo. It is close to the Imperial Palace. Also, it is easy to go to Shinjuku, Shibuya, Asakusa, Ueno and Akihabara (15 - 20 minutes by train). This YH is very convenient because 5 lines (JR Sobu-line, Tokyo Metro Yurakucho-line, Tozai-line, Nanboku-line and Toei Subway
Oedo-line) are linked to the nearest station "Iidabashi ". Just 1 minute walk from each Exit of those stations.
The view is wonderful because this YH is in the upper floor of skyscraper (the bed rooms are in 18th and 19th floors).
It may be that you can see Mt Fuji and the Japan Alps if it is clear weather. The night view from each bed room is also beautiful.
1 minute walk from West Exit of Iidabashi Station on the JR Sobu Line. 1 minute walk from Exit B2b of Iidabashi Station on the Tokyo Metro Yurakucho Line, Tozai Line or Namboku Line, or the Toei Oedo Subway Line.

Customer Reviews Tokyo - HI Tokyo Central YH
| 09 Jun 2013 William, USA | 70% | |
| Auschwitz doesn't have anything on this hostel´s hostile attitude towards respecting travelers complicated schedules. I've traveled around the world multiple times never stayed somewhere that had so many tight time restrictions for everything. Won't return or recommend. | ||
| 04 Jun 2013 Louis, USA | 73% | |
| Men's restrooms were on the other side of the floor, which was inconvenient.
Could smell the smoke from people smoking in the central lounge even with door locked. | ||
| 31 May 2013 Owen, Canada | 100% | |
| Location is superb, essentially right on top of the JR station and Tokyo metro lines. The hostel is also very clean and the staff are very helpful. Common area is friendly, though kitchen is a bit limited. We would definitely stay at the hostel next time we were staying in Tokyo. | ||
| 22 May 2013 Chi Hsiang, Taiwan | 90% | |
| The hostel had curfew between 23-6, and many westerner smoked and made loud noises at the lobby during curfew. It was not a good experience to stay in a hostel full of noise and smoke. | ||
| 27 Apr 2013 Yuen Yu, Hong Kong | 100% | |
| WIFI is very weak in the 8 bed rooms down the corridor, if there is an enhancement will be even better. | ||

| 1. The brochures available for free are very useful, friendly staff and space to put the luggages after check up are great!
2. Should put more kitchen utensils in the kitchen, cleanliness of the male's toilet was deteriorated over the days especially at the night. | ||
