Good to know
Shimokitazawa has very few hotels. Only two in or next to it have their own websites: MUSTARD HOTEL on the Higashi-Kitazawa side of the Shimokita Senrogai strip, and Yuen Bettei Daita, an onsen ryokan 30 seconds from Setagaya-Daita Station. If both are full, stay in Shibuya or Shinjuku and take the train in.
Two lines reach Shimokitazawa. The Keio Inokashira Line runs from its Shibuya Station, under Shibuya Mark City, to Shimokitazawa; Shinsen and Ikenoue are also on it. The Odakyu Line runs from Shinjuku through Higashi-Kitazawa, Shimokitazawa and Setagaya-Daita. MUSTARD HOTEL’s own route advice is Shimokitazawa Station from Shibuya and Higashi-Kitazawa from Shinjuku.
