If you’re looking for a convenient hotel near Haneda Airport, especially one with a free airport shuttle, you may come across two very similar options: Toyoko Inn Tokyo Haneda Airport No.1 and No.2.
They are right next to each other, but there are some useful differences in the shuttle location, breakfast, rooms and hotel design. I stayed here myself and checked how the two hotels are actually laid out.
I stayed here myself and checked the location, airport shuttle, breakfast and other differences. If you are wondering, “Which one should I book?”, here is what you should know before you arrive.
Quick answer: What is the difference between No.1 and No.2?
| No.1 | No.2 | |
|---|---|---|
| Location | Next to No.2 | The first hotel you reach from Otorii Station East Exit |
| Free Haneda Airport shuttle | Shuttle stop is in front of No.1 | Guests can use the same shuttle |
| Free breakfast | Onigiri-style breakfast | Buffet-style breakfast |
| Interior | Familiar Toyoko Inn style | First property to feature Toyoko Inn’s rebranding design |
| Good choice if… | Airport shuttle convenience is your priority | You prefer the newer-style interior or buffet breakfast |
The most important thing to understand is the actual layout.
Otorii Station East Exit → No.2 → No.1
The two hotels are very close together, so the difference in walking distance is small.
The free airport shuttle, however, boards in front of No.1.
Yes, Toyoko Inn Haneda Airport No.1 and No.2 really are side by side
This was the first thing that surprised me when I arrived.
The two buildings stand next to each other with only a narrow space between them. In my photo, No.1 is on the left and No.2 is on the right.
That makes the names “No.1” and “No.2” sound more complicated than the actual situation.
They are basically two neighboring Toyoko Inn hotels serving the same very convenient Haneda Airport area.
From Otorii Station: You reach No.2 first
The nearest station is Otorii Station on the Keikyu Airport Line.
In the photo above, the circled sign on the right marks Otorii Station. You can see just how close the station is to Toyoko Inn Haneda Airport No.2.
When you come out of the East Exit and head toward the hotels, the practical order is:
Otorii Station → Toyoko Inn Haneda Airport No.2 → Toyoko Inn Haneda Airport No.1
Both are extremely close to the station.
This is also a useful station if you are flying from Haneda. Otorii is only a few stops from the airport, but once you leave the airport area, the surroundings already feel much more like a local Tokyo neighborhood.
One small tip: when taking the Keikyu Line from Haneda Airport, board the last car of the train. When you get off at Otorii Station, you’ll be right near the East Exit.
The free Haneda Airport shuttle boards at No.1
This is probably the most useful difference to remember.
The free shuttle bus shared by the two hotels boards in front of Toyoko Inn Haneda Airport No.1.
So even if you are staying at No.2, you walk over to No.1 to take the airport shuttle.
Do not worry—the two buildings are right next to each other.
The shuttle is especially useful for an early-morning flight. The current timetable starts very early in the morning, but schedules can change, traffic around Haneda can be unpredictable, and buses are first-come, first-served.
Always check the latest official Toyoko Inn shuttle timetable before your flight and allow plenty of extra time.
Breakfast is one of the biggest differences
Both hotels include free breakfast, but the style is different.
Toyoko Inn Haneda Airport No.1: Onigiri breakfast

No.1 offers Toyoko Inn’s onigiri-style breakfast.
Onigiri are Japanese rice balls, and this is a fun option if you want a quick Japanese breakfast before heading out.
On the TV screen, the photo at the bottom left shows the onigiri breakfast at No.1, while the photo at the bottom right shows the buffet breakfast at No.2.
Toyoko Inn Haneda Airport No.2: Buffet breakfast
No.2 offers a buffet-style breakfast.
When I stayed, the hotel TV displayed the menus for both No.1 and No.2, and guests could choose which breakfast venue to use.
I spent far too long deciding between them, but the wonton soup and anago chirashi sushi on the No.2 menu finally won me over.
Because breakfast arrangements can change, check the information provided at the hotel when you stay.

No.2 has Toyoko Inn’s newer rebranding design
No.2 feels noticeably different inside.
Toyoko Inn describes Haneda Airport No.2 as the first hotel to feature its rebranding design.
The lobby has a more contemporary café-like feel, with colors and lighting that feel different from the familiar Toyoko Inn style many travelers know.
There is also a self-service luggage locker, which is particularly convenient at a hotel this close to the station.
If you’re interested in Toyoko Inn’s newer design direction, No.2 is especially worth a look.

What about the rooms?
Do not assume that No.1 and No.2 have identical rooms just because they are next door to each other.
The room designs and layouts differ slightly.
For example, when comparing the single-room layouts, I thought the desk space in some No.2 rooms might feel a little compact if you plan to spread out a laptop and work for a long time.
On the other hand, No.2 has a café-style lobby area with power outlets, so there is another place where you can sit with a computer.
If room layout matters to you, compare the exact room type before booking rather than choosing only by “No.1” or “No.2.”
Convenience stores and restaurants nearby
There is a 7-Eleven across the main road, and several restaurants and izakaya are also within walking distance.
That is useful if you arrive late at Haneda and want something simple to eat after checking in.
There are also other hotels in this part of Haneda, so the area is quite practical for an airport overnight stay.
One unexpected problem: remembering whether you are staying at No.1 or No.2
This may sound silly, but once you have seen the two similar Toyoko Inn buildings standing next to each other, you may understand.
After going out, I actually found myself thinking:
“Wait… am I staying in No.1 or No.2?”
The room number alone does not help much if you cannot remember the building.
Keep the check-in information showing the hotel name, or save the exact hotel in your phone.
It is a small thing—but surprisingly useful when two very similar hotels are standing side by side.

So, which one should you book?
There is no dramatic difference in location because the two hotels are neighbors.
I would think about it this way:
Choose No.1 if the airport shuttle location is especially important to you or you like the idea of the onigiri breakfast.
Choose No.2 if you prefer the newer rebranding design, want the buffet-style breakfast, or simply like being the first of the two hotels you reach from Otorii Station East Exit.
For an early departure from Haneda Airport or a late arrival into Tokyo, both are extremely convenient options.
The important thing is simply to know before you arrive that there really are two Toyoko Inns here—and that they are right next to each other.
