What a night-pack booth gets you

Most Tokyo chains sell the same few things for the night. Check the branch before you go: not every one has showers or flat rooms.

The night pack, the passport and the last train

Most Tokyo trains stop between about midnight and 12:30 am and start again around 4:30 to 5 am, and a night pack is how a net café sells that gap: one price for six to twelve hours, cheapest in an open booth and more for a locked room. Customa Cafe Kabukicho listed its 12-hour locked room at ¥2,800 on weekdays in August 2026, while Kaikatsu's Shibuya Center-gai branch charged ¥6,860 in 2024, which is capsule-hotel money. Since 2010 a Tokyo ordinance has made internet cafés check identity before anyone uses a terminal, so the first visit means a registration form and a photo ID: for a visitor that is a passport, not a bank card.

Visiting: what to know before you go

Bring ID

A Tokyo ordinance requires net cafés to check ID before you use a terminal; a passport counts (Tokyo Metropolitan Police). A card made at a branch outside Tokyo does not carry over (MPD case notes).

For the night

Many branches have lockable private rooms, and some have showers and coin laundry (Kaikatsu Club); the night packs and prices differ by branch.

Questions people ask

Can tourists sleep in a Tokyo internet café?

Yes. Buy a night pack at the counter, show your passport on the first visit, and ask for a locked private room (鍵付き個室) if you want to sleep properly. Branches with showers say so at the desk.

How much is a night in a Tokyo internet café?

It depends on the branch and the room. In August 2026 Customa Cafe Kabukicho listed a 12-hour locked room at ¥2,800 on weekdays, while Kaikatsu's Shibuya Center-gai branch charged ¥6,860 in 2024. Across 38 Tokyo capsule hotels the median lowest price was about ¥5,920 a night in September 2026, so a pricey central branch can cost as much as a capsule bed.

Is a capsule hotel better than an internet café for the night?

For real sleep, usually: a flat bed, a big bath at many, and you can book it ahead. A net café wins on price at the cheaper chains, and when you only need a few hours until the first train.

What are the best internet cafés in Tokyo for a night?

For a locked room and a shower, カスタマカフェ 歌舞伎町店 or Customa Cafe Ueno. For a bed you can book ahead, Booth Net Cafe and Capsule in Kabukicho.

Can I print documents at a Tokyo internet café?

Usually, as a paid service, but it varies by branch, so ask at the counter first. Convenience store multifunction machines are the dependable alternative for printing and scanning.

How many internet cafés are there in Tokyo?

NUM's directory maps 127 internet cafés in Tokyo, most of them branches of chains such as Kaikatsu Club, Manboo, Jiyu Kukan, Bagus and Customa.
