Sumida Nagaya

Great Stay

Pros: I really enjoyed my Sumida Nagaya and Masa (the host) was very kind and helpful throughout my stay! He runs the business with his wife, who was very friendly too. The property is around an 8-10 minute walk to Hikifune station and also had this lovely bakery outside the station called 'My Bakery'. The property was well maintained and the communal areas were cleaned everyday. I stayed in the semi-private room and the bed was very comfy and had all the required amenities that I needed. It is also close to Tokyo Skytree shopping centre. The area also felt safe to me.

Cons: Nothing. I loved my stay here and would definitely come back!

Pros: Super friendly and patient host, and a very cute location in a calm beautiful area. The room is very traditional and the bed is so comfortable and cozy. Would love to come back to!

Masa-san and his wife were great hosts who were very accommodating to provide an excellent stay.

Pros: Super accommodating hosts, speaking very good English, they even received a heavy package for me when I was out. Very clean, easy instructions for rubbish segregation Equipped with modern facilities despite the house' age, including fridge and microwave Separate storage space with a lock (very needed since room was rather small) Futon-like bed nails the Japanese atmosphere

Cons: Privacy level takes a little bit of getting used to, since you can hear everything, but it's not too intrusive if the co-guest is nice (which mine was).

Pros: If there were 6 stars to give, I would give 7. I almost regret leaving this comment since I alone want to be in knowlege of this accomodation, but I leave this comment out of my appreciation for Masa. The service and facilities were all-encompassing, and I was even provided medication for my swollen foot after having informed Masa of my condition. It was a great experience and I look to enjoy the place more fully on my next occasion. Thank you, Masa.

Calm and peaceful and cozy

Pros: The room is beautiful. When you are walking and exploring all day it is so peaceful to return to. Masa is an amazing host, very caring. They have built a lovely place. And Yuri’s lasagne if you get a chance you must try it, best lasagna I have ever had. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Cons: It was all perfect

Pros: We loved our stay in Sumida. This was my 8th visit to Tokyo, and Sumida has become one of my favourite neighbourhoods. Masa-san was a fantastic host — warm, responsive, and incredibly thoughtful. We couldn’t have asked for better hospitality. We loved everything.

Wonderful house with great design. Yuri & Masa are very kind and helpful, can't wait to go back!

Pros: I had the best time at Sumida Nagaya, what a lovely space. Masa and Yuri welcomed me with open arms. Gave me lots of tips and even took me to their friends restaurant next door. Thank you again you two, I can't wait to hopefully meet them in Switzerland one day and to come back to Sumida!

Pros: Amazing stay, highly recommend for anyone visiting Tokyo!

Will come back if I can

Pros: Great little place with old beams, modern amenities, traditional tatami mats, attention to detail and hostel conveniences. I especially liked the charming and less touristy Sumida neighbourhood. Enjoying Ramen at a very local restaurant was one of our highlights in Tokyo.

Cons: Some (oat) milk to go with the complimentary coffee would be bliss ☺️. I would be happy to pay for that, especially as nearby cafes were closed in the mornings while we were there.

Antique 100+ year old cultural gem of Tokyo

Pros: Masa and his wife are exceptional hosts. The place is very peaceful in a calmer part of Tokyo close to multiple underground stations. The place has very unique and peaceful vibe. Minimalistic, modern, functional. With lot of tips what to do in Nagoya district and beyond. Free tea and water is great. Cutlery for own food available. And we had a great peaceful discussion with Masa, so you can ask him and he will always help. Digital Nomad ready - 100+ Mbit connectivity.
