࿔*:･ Cozy Share Ikebukuro-Nishi House Area Introduction ⋆.ೃ࿔

Hello, this is Lisa from Interwhao staff.
Today, I’d like to introduce the charm of the surrounding area of “Cozy Share Ikebukuro-Nishi” one of our most ideally located properties.

This neighborhood is a lively mix of long-standing local shops and trendy new spots.

The property is located approximately 900m away, 5-minute walk from the station, and is two stations away from Ikebukuro and 13 minutes away from Shinjuku Station.

Around the property, you’ll find supermarkets, convenience stores, and even a popular café called MIA MIA, located just a short walk away.

The cafe is set inside a renovated former boutique, giving it a charming retro exterior. It has been featured on Trip.com and in numerous media and magazines. Inside, you’ll find a wonderfully international atmosphere with customers from Korea, Taiwan, Australia, and more.

Their classic Australian flat white and beef pie were absolutely delicious—authentic and impressive!
The staff was also extremely friendly, and their motto is “a place where people naturally connect,” which resonates deeply with Interwhao’s values. It was truly a lovely space.

While chatting with some customers there, I found out that one of them runs a chocolate shop nearby, so I decided to visit as well.

The shop is called Cacaokobo Tribute, owned by an Australian.


They directly source organic cacao beans and produce their chocolate in-house. Their products contain no sugar, no additives—just pure, natural chocolate.

The flavor is incredibly rich and aromatic, and the owner is very friendly, too!!

Another local highlight is Tokiwa-so, the legendary apartment where famous manga artists such as Osamu Tezuka spent their early days.

They are currently hosting a special 5th anniversary exhibition, so if you’re interested, definitely check it out!

This area is a unique blend of old shopping streets, cozy residential neighborhoods, cafés, and creative studios—offering a relaxed yet artistic local vibe.

Cozy Share Ikebukuro-Nishi has only a few rooms left, so if you’re interested, please contact us soon!

    The size of all rooms are about 10㎡ with good sunshine!! Shower rooms and bathrooms are separated in men and women. And the entrance is electric auto-locked so the security is good!!
