Who this house is for
A good fit
- Large families of 8–16, including three-generation trips with grandparents and children
- Two or three families traveling together who want privacy at night and one shared living space by day
- Groups of friends visiting Tokyo for 3–7 nights who would otherwise book four or more hotel rooms
- Families with babies or toddlers — cribs, high chairs and toys are already in the house
- Longer stays that need a real kitchen and in-house laundry
- Travelers who want Shibuya, Harajuku and Shinjuku minutes away, but a quiet street to come home to
Not the right place
- Parties or events — this is a quiet residential neighborhood and house rules prohibit them
- Guests who want nightlife directly outside the door
- Travelers who prefer hotel-style daily housekeeping and a staffed front desk
6 bedrooms over 3 floors — and how groups actually use them
The house is a three-story building, and every couple or family unit gets a bedroom door that closes. The ground floor is the shared floor: living room, a long dining table, the kitchen, a bathroom with tub and a toilet. Bedrooms 1–3 are on the second floor (one of them the Japanese-style tatami room — many overseas guests pick it first), Bedrooms 4–6 on the third. The living room has two sofas that convert to double beds, which means grandparents or anyone who prefers to avoid stairs can live entirely on the ground floor, steps from the kitchen and a bathroom.
| Room | Beds |
|---|---|
| Bedroom 1 | 1 double bed |
| Bedroom 2 | 2 double beds |
| Bedroom 3 — Japanese-style tatami room | 2 double beds |
| Bedroom 4 | 1 double bed |
| Bedroom 5 | 2 double beds |
| Bedroom 6 — the largest room, 3rd floor, high ceiling | 2 double beds + 2 baby cribs |
| Living room (ground floor) | 2 sofa double beds |
12 double beds in total across 6 bedrooms and the living room. Each bedroom has its own steam iron, mirror and humidifier.
Bathrooms and toilets
- Ground floor: bathroom with bathtub, separate toilet, powder room
- 2nd floor: unit bathroom with bathtub and toilet, plus a separate shower room and powder room
- 3rd floor: toilet
Example: three families, ten guests
Family A (2 adults + 1 child) takes Bedrooms 1 and 4 · Family B (2 adults + a baby) takes Bedroom 6 with the cribs already set up · Family C (2 adults + 2 children) takes Bedrooms 2 and 5 · Grandparents joining? The ground-floor sofa beds mean no stairs at all. Three bathrooms and a toilet on every floor mean no morning queue.
A quiet residential street at night. Shibuya, Harajuku and Shinjuku within four minutes by train in the morning.
Kitasando: the quiet street between the three big names
Most visitors have never heard of Kitasando — and that is exactly its value. It is a calm residential pocket of Shibuya City that happens to sit directly between Shinjuku, Harajuku and Shibuya. From Kitasando Station, 3 minutes from the house, the Fukutoshin Line reaches Shinjuku-sanchōme in 2 minutes, Meiji-jingūmae (Harajuku) in 2 minutes and Shibuya in 4 minutes. Harajuku Station on the JR Yamanote Line is a 13-minute walk, and Meiji Jingu shrine and Yoyogi Park are walkable.
Four stations are walkable — Kitasando Station (3 min), Sendagaya Station (8 min), Harajuku Station (13 min), Yoyogi Station (14 min) — and from Kitasando the wider city opens up fast: Roppongi in 20, Ginza in 22, Tokyo Station in 24, Akihabara in 25, Asakusa in 33, Maihama (Tokyo Disneyland) in 53 minutes. Days are for the busy side of Tokyo; nights are for a street where you can hear yourselves talk. Guests rate the location 5.0, and "quiet" is one of the most-mentioned words in reviews.
Getting here from the airports
- Haneda (HND): about 57 minutes by train to Kitasando Station; a fixed-fare taxi or van is practical for a group with luggage.
- Narita (NRT): about 90 minutes by train to Kitasando Station; for 8+ guests, an airport shuttle van is often the comfortable choice.
Daily needs are covered on foot: convenience store 2 min, supermarket 3 min, drugstore 2 min, with cafes and restaurants throughout the area.
One house versus four hotel rooms
For groups, the comparison that matters is not against one hotel room — it is against the four or five rooms you would otherwise need. Nightly pricing is dynamic and depends on your dates, so the Airbnb listing is the only accurate source for cost. What never changes is the math on space and logistics:
| Hotel MADO Kitasando | 4–5 hotel rooms in central Tokyo | |
|---|---|---|
| Bookings to manage | 1 booking, 1 total price, 1 key system | 4–5 separate bookings, bills and check-ins |
| Space for 12 guests | 171 m² shared — about 14 m² per person | A 20 m² twin room is about 10 m² per person, with no shared space |
| Meals together | Full kitchen, one long dining table for the group | Restaurants only |
| Kids at night | Parents down the hall | Parents in another room, on another floor |
| Laundry | 2 washer-dryers included | Hotel laundry fees or coin laundry |
Rates are set dynamically by season, lead time and occupancy. The Airbnb listing always shows the exact total for your dates and group size — houses this large in central Tokyo are scarce, so popular weeks book out months ahead.

Questions groups ask before booking
Can 16 people really sleep comfortably?
The house has 12 double beds: 10 across the six bedrooms plus 2 sofa double beds in the ground-floor living room. Most groups of 10–14 give every couple or family unit its own room. Grandparents or guests who prefer to avoid stairs can sleep on the ground floor next to a bathroom. If your group is at the upper end, message the host through Airbnb with your exact party and they will confirm the best arrangement.
Where exactly is the house?
The house is in Kitasando, Shibuya City — a 3-minute walk from Kitasando Station on the Fukutoshin Line, 2 minutes by train from Shinjuku-sanchome and Meiji-jingumae (Harajuku) and 4 minutes from Shibuya. Like most private vacation rentals, the exact street address and door access details are shared with confirmed guests through Airbnb after booking.
Is it suitable for babies and toddlers?
Yes — two baby cribs, two high chairs, baby bibs, a bottle-cleaning kit and a supply of toys and picture books are already in the house, so families can pack lighter. The surrounding streets are calm, and Yoyogi Park is within reach for stroller walks.
How does check-in work?
Self check-in with a smart lock — no front desk and no waiting for staff, which matters when a large group lands at different times. Guests rate the check-in experience 5.0. Instructions arrive through Airbnb before arrival.
How many bathrooms and toilets are there?
Three bathrooms and three toilets. The ground floor has a bathroom with bathtub and a separate toilet; the second floor has a unit bathroom with bathtub and toilet plus a separate shower room; the third floor has its own toilet. With one toilet on every floor and three places to wash, a group of 10–12 does not queue in the morning.
Can we do laundry mid-trip?
Yes. Two washer-dryer units are in the house, which is one of the main reasons families on 5+ night trips choose it — half the suitcase stays home.
Can we host a party or gathering?
No. The house sits on a quiet residential street and house rules prohibit parties and events. It is the right base for groups who are out exploring by day and want a calm place to cook, talk and sleep — not a venue.
Is the neighborhood safe and quiet at night?
Kitasando is a residential district; evenings are genuinely quiet, which guests mention repeatedly in reviews. Shinjuku and Shibuya's nightlife are a short train ride away — you visit it, then leave it behind.
How much does it cost per night?
Pricing is dynamic — it changes with the season, how far ahead you book, and current occupancy — so the only accurate number is the total shown on the Airbnb listing for your exact dates and group size. When comparing, put that total next to the combined cost of the 4–5 hotel rooms your group would otherwise need, not a single room. Entire houses for 10+ guests are rare in central Tokyo, so for school holidays and peak weeks, booking early is the real way to get a better rate.
How do we book?
All booking and payment goes through the Airbnb listing, which shows live availability and total prices for your dates and group size.
