Mokkoan is an incredible hotel, run by the loveliest owners. Thank you Yasuhiko san and Chieko san for your care - we loved our chats in the hallway and over breakfast with K-chan, the orange marmalade from the garden, and every part of our time here! Staying at Mokkoan feels like staying in a thoughtful, peaceful oasis in Tokyo and it has left a lasting impression on me. In leaving Tokyo, I knew I would definitely miss Mokkoan and hope to return. If you visit, please treat the owners + staff kindly, as they truly make this place special

So cozy and the owners are very kind. It is a traditional Japanese home. Very quiet and safe neighborhood. The owner was very hospitable. Would go again. It reminded me as if you were visiting your grandparents home in Japan. <3 Will definitely stay here again when come back to Tokyo.

Such a shame we only had one night and activities booked for the day. The hosts were beyond generous and sweet to us. I would come back here next time I come to Tokyo for some peace and quiet.

Well what can I say about this place - this was the best stay I had during my visit to Japan. The owners were very welcoming and they went above and beyond to make me feel at home. The room was nice and clean - they also offer you Japanese style pyjamas and outwear in case of cold days. The Japanese garden was elegant and you can tell it’s been well-maintained. The location was great - about a 10min walk to Akabane station which will get you to anywhere in Tokyo easily, not to mention that the owner also offers you a ride to the subway station :). The breakfast was delicious and healthy as well… I can’t say enough good things about this cute little gem. I’ll be back and see you soon!

Cannot fault this place at all. I had a wonderful stay at Mokkoan. Hosted by the most friendliest and welcoming owners Yasuhiko-san and Chieko-san who go above and beyond - I will most certainly be back! The rooms are beautiful and with a great garden view too which was lovely. Anyone looking for a relaxing and homely stay in a quiet area, I can highly recommend.
