  • In this video we are staying a very entertaining night in one of Tokyo's more peculiar hotels- The Under Railway Hotel. It may just be the noisiest hotel in the world! This stylish and newly-opened Tokyo hotel is built right under the JR Train tracks in Akihabara and as you can imagine it is NOT library quiet. The Under Railway Hotel is part of a new development in Akihabara called Seekbase. In otherwise wasted space, everything is built under Tokyo's JR railroad tracks. There's a gin distillery, DJ music school, Gamers bar and a ton of other cool stuff. You must be wondering what a night of sleeping under the railway tracks is like!? You're about to find out!

    Like Sinatra, you do it your way Peter. 😀 Really enjoyed how you shot and edited this adventure. A unique Tokyo experience! Sexy AF is looking and sounding sweet! 🏍👍😎

    That train noise doesn’t really bother me. I would love to support them anyway I can.....thanks Peter for showing this cool place

      Sure! Yeah I imagine some deep sleepers wouldn't mind the noise. :0)

    Thanks for joining this night at the Under Railway Hotel! Seems the consensus is 50/50 - those who would stay and those who wouldn't! :0) Give it a go! Make memories!

    Good video again PvG, it's obvious to see that your editing skills are getting better as well as your shot compositions.

    I dig this one, PVG, the humor was it. Would I enjoy the hotel? Yes. The sound of a train rolling by puts me to sleep and I do like my sleeping area to be pitch black. I would stay there

    I found this hotel on my search for hotels near akihabara Station. Luckily you made this thorough video, though it looks very cool and innovative, I'd definitely hate it after a couple hours.

    Dude, Peter, some of your cutaways and transitions in this are FANTASTIC! Good job, bud. (I know I'm late to the party here, but I never saw this! Somehow, TH-cam made sure it eluded me. 🤨🤔)

    Much much better than the live stream video . . . I lived about a mile from a major train route and could hear the diesel locomotives and their horns at all hours day and night. After awhile you didn’t notice. Sort of like the foghorns in San Francisco. Great video. 👍🙀🙀🙀

    If it works out at approximately £33 per night, I'm staying in a best Western in akihabara for £35 per night :p
    Although a lot of good headphones have active noise cancellation now and so it might be even easier to get a good night sleep.

    @texasburbs4380 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    LOL, you can't call the front desk and complain about the noise. Are there any areas you recommend that are 'quiet'? I have a feeling many areas will be loudish....

    & i salute you on trying things & be adventurous than regreting for not trying at all.
    there was this ramen place in asakusabashi nearby my hotel that i used to walk by everyday & i was always intrigued by it, but never get to try. now it hunts me 😭 hopefully its still open for business on my next trip to tokyo

    The tank looks so gorgeous that I kept staring! The hotel is in an interesting, stylish place in an convenient and cool location. I just would not want to wake up with a hangover there after a party night. 🍻🍸🥴

    • @PetervonGommJAPAN

  • @KTChu-be7bk
    @KTChu-be7bk 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Nice! Actually, on a sleep app, they have many sounds to help you sleep such as forest, waterfall, etc....and trains. I guess it depends on not the rhythm, but how loud it is.

    Hey Peter - thanks for this!!
    Yes, its weird things like this that makes Japan so attractive. Spot on closing comments, climbing Mt Everest aint exactly relaxing but its yes, its a great experience. So, I would probably stay at the Hotel once ...coz it will give me more conversation time to talk about to my Aussie friends that staying at an APA hotel.
    ..APA isnt so bad though :)

    • @PetervonGommJAPAN
      @PetervonGommJAPAN  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Exactly! It's about the experience. An adventure wouldn't be an adventure if everything is planned and laid out for you.

  • @PetreRodan
    @PetreRodan 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    great idea to check this place out, thanks! a question tho: is it harder to sleep in that room than on a train (couchette )?

    • @PetervonGommJAPAN
      @PetervonGommJAPAN  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      yes I've slept on trains and much easier for me to sleep on trains- I think because it is moving. And the booming sound goes into the structure supporting the train.

  • @OllamhDrab
    @OllamhDrab 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'd probably try it, ...dunno if I'd need room for six, but I've lived right next to train tracks before, and it's not the kind of noise that bothers me. :) (I also like the color scheme in that room. Hotel rooms are often way too bright. :) I did my own room in an olive green and white scheme )

    Thank you for your fantastic advice on drugs 👍. On one hand I kinda think this is the worst idea ever and that these spaces should be reserved for things like cafes. On the other hand the muffled doki doki, doki doki, overhead kinda grew on me in this video, but I'm also a massive railfan so... Maybe they should go all in on train theming.

    • @PetervonGommJAPAN
      @PetervonGommJAPAN  4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Peter...would you know...the nightly rate you were charged...is it much lower than 'typical' because of COVID or is that the 'normal' rate?

    • @PetervonGommJAPAN
      @PetervonGommJAPAN  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      it's an unusually low rate. I think low season and covid are related.

      Thanks Marc! That spot is a little pricey. I think 200yen per hour. Akihabara is the most expensive parking I’ve found

    5500 yen? For a six person room? How much are the singles? I'll have to consider staying here when I come to Japan. Does this mean sharing the room with five strangers when the hotel is full? ^_^

    • @PetervonGommJAPAN
      @PetervonGommJAPAN  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      No you get the rom to yourself! :0) HOWEVER I noticed the rates are higher now- just a week after I stayed there. I think it was low season? But the price increases nominally for more bodies in the room

    I suppose that train noise could be comforting for some people, like how some people are comforted from the sounds of rain.
    ... I'm just not one of them.
