The station you want is **Motomachi-Chukagai** on the Minatomirai Line. Three exits serve different parts of the neighborhood: - **Chūkagai Exit** — points directly toward the eastern Chinatown gates; about a 4-min walk to the main entrance. - **Motomachi Exit** — leads to Motomachi shopping street (local boutiques, bakeries), one block parallel to Chinatown. - **Marine Tower Exit** — most direct route to Yamashita Park and the harbor promenade. From the west, Kannai is a second useful anchor. JR Kannai Station (Keihin-Tohoku and Negishi lines) and Kannai Subway Station (Yokohama Blue Line) both put you roughly 10–15 minutes on foot from the gates, passing Yokohama Stadium and Yokohama Park en route. If you are coming from Tokyo via the Minatomirai Line, Motomachi-Chukagai is almost always the more direct choice. For the wider neighborhood picture, see our [Yokohama area guide](https://www.nipponstays.com/where-to-stay-in-yokohama/). ## Steps from the Gates: Closest Picks ### Hotel New Grand Hotel New Grand has been on the Yamashita Park waterfront since 1927\. Motomachi-Chukagai Station is a 1-min walk, Chinatown is 2 minutes, and the harbor promenade runs directly outside. The property has 249 rooms split between the original 1927 main building and a 1991 tower, plus three restaurants and two cafés. It is the most expensive option in this guide but also the only one where you get a genuine historic Japanese hotel experience alongside Chinatown access. - Station: Motomachi-Chukagai (Chūkagai Exit), 1-min walk - Chinatown: 2-min walk - Luggage storage: available - Restaurants: on-site (3 restaurants, 2 cafés) [Check rates at Hotel New Grand](https://www.agoda.com/hotel-new-grand-yokohama/hotel/yokohama-jp.html?cid=1968926&tag=hotels-near-yokohama-chinatown&ref=nipponstays.com) — from ¥20,000; rates vary by season. ### Rose Hotel Yokohama Rose Hotel Yokohama sits inside the Chinatown district itself. The Chinatown food streets are essentially across the road from the front entrance. Motomachi-Chukagai Station is a 5-min walk via the Chūkagai Exit. The hotel runs an outdoor pool and fitness center — an unusual combination at this price point for this part of Yokohama. Rooms are described consistently by guests as spacious by Japanese city-hotel standards. The property has appeared in the Michelin Travel Guide for four consecutive years. - Station: Motomachi-Chukagai (Chūkagai Exit), 5-min walk - Chinatown: immediate — main food streets are adjacent - Facilities: outdoor pool, fitness center, free Wi-Fi [Check rates at Rose Hotel Yokohama](https://www.trip.com/hotels/yokohama-hotel-detail-704334/rose-hotel-yokohama/?Allianceid=9711325&SID=327049682&trip%5Fsub1=hotels-near-yokohama-chinatown&trip%5Fsub3=D19119900&ref=nipponstays.com) — from ¥8,000; rates vary by season. ## Motomachi and Yamashita Park Side Stays with Harbor Access Hotel New Grand (above) covers this zone well. If you want more time along the water, the Yamashita Park promenade stretches west from the Marine Tower Exit of Motomachi-Chukagai Station and is free to walk at any hour. Marine Tower is about a 5-min walk along the promenade from the station. For harbor views in the evening, the Ōsanbashi Pier — a curved wooden deck that extends over the water — is roughly a 15-min walk west along the waterfront from Yamashita Park. Motomachi shopping street runs one block parallel to the Chinatown grid, separated by the Nakamura River. The atmosphere there is noticeably quieter than Chinatown: local boutiques, small bakeries, and wine bars rather than the dense restaurant rows and souvenir stalls. Rose Hotel Yokohama sits between the two, which makes it the most practical base if you want both neighborhoods within easy reach. For stays focused primarily on the cruise pier side, see [hotels near Osanbashi Cruise Terminal](https://www.nipponstays.com/hotels-near-osanbashi-cruise-terminal/). ## Quieter Kannai and Bashamichi Rooms, One Area Back Stepping one area inland drops the nightly rate noticeably while keeping Chinatown within a 10–15-min walk or a single subway stop. ### Daiwa Roynet Hotel Yokohama-Koen This property reopened in October 2024 after a full interior renovation. It sits next to Yokohama Park with Yokohama Stadium directly in front; Chinatown is a 5-min walk behind the hotel. With 292 rooms across 12 floors, it is one of the larger hotels in this zone. The hotel is accessible from five different stations — the closest on foot are Kannai (JR Keihin-Tohoku and Negishi lines) at a 9-min walk and Motomachi-Chukagai at about 10 minutes. - Station: Kannai (JR), 9-min walk; Motomachi-Chukagai, 10-min walk - Chinatown: 5-min walk - Rooms: 292 rooms, 12 floors, renovated October 2024 - Facilities: free Wi-Fi, quality bedding [Check rates at Daiwa Roynet Hotel Yokohama-Koen](https://www.trip.com/hotels/yokohama-hotel-detail-1454519/daiwa-roynet-hotel-yokohama-koen/?Allianceid=9711325&SID=327049682&trip%5Fsub1=hotels-near-yokohama-chinatown&trip%5Fsub3=D19120257&ref=nipponstays.com) — from ¥8,000; rates vary by season. ### Hotel JAL City Kannai Yokohama Operated by the Okura Nikko Hotels group, JAL City Kannai is a dependable upper mid-range option. Chinatown and Yokohama Stadium are both a 5-min walk. Motomachi-Chukagai Subway Station is 5 minutes on foot; Nihon-odori Station (Minatomirai Line) is also about 5 minutes in the other direction — useful if you are heading to Minato Mirai. An on-site restaurant and spa with massage services cover most needs without leaving the building. Check-in is at 2:00 PM. - Station: Nihon-odori (Minatomirai Line), 5-min walk; Motomachi-Chukagai, 5-min walk - Chinatown: 5-min walk - Facilities: restaurant, spa, free Wi-Fi - Check-in / Check-out: 2:00 PM / 11:00 AM [Check rates at Hotel JAL City Kannai Yokohama](https://www.trip.com/hotels/yokohama-hotel-detail-704354/hotel-jal-city-kannai-yokohama/?Allianceid=9711325&SID=327049682&trip%5Fsub1=hotels-near-yokohama-chinatown&trip%5Fsub3=D19122602&ref=nipponstays.com) — from ¥8,000; rates vary by season. ### APA Hotel Yokohama Kannai APA Yokohama Kannai is the most transit-efficient budget pick in this roundup. Kannai Subway Station (Blue Line) is a 1-min walk from the entrance; JR Kannai Station (Keihin-Tohoku and Negishi lines) is 3 minutes. With 451 rooms, last-minute availability is rarely an issue. Chinatown is a 10-min walk east. The hotel has a full-service spa and an on-site restaurant, which makes it more comfortable than the typical budget business hotel in this price range. - Station: Kannai (Yokohama Blue Line), 1-min walk; JR Kannai (Keihin-Tohoku/Negishi), 3-min walk - Chinatown: 10-min walk - Rooms: 451 rooms - Facilities: full-service spa, restaurant, free Wi-Fi [Check rates at APA Hotel Yokohama Kannai](https://www.trip.com/hotels/yokohama-hotel-detail-123274404/apa-hotel-yokohama-kannai/?Allianceid=9711325&SID=327049682&trip%5Fsub1=hotels-near-yokohama-chinatown&trip%5Fsub3=D19119627&ref=nipponstays.com) — from ¥5,700; rates vary by season. ### Richmond Hotel Yokohama Bashamichi Richmond Bashamichi sits in Yokohama's historic port district — red-brick warehouses and 19th-century architecture — which gives it a different character from the other options on this list. Kannai Station (JR) is a 5-min walk; Bashamichi Station (Minatomirai Line) is 6 minutes. Chinatown is a 10-min walk east; the Red Brick Warehouse and the start of the Minato Mirai waterfront are about 15 minutes in the other direction. If you are splitting time between Chinatown dinners and Minato Mirai daytime sightseeing, this location covers both without doubling back. - Station: Kannai (JR Negishi Line), 5-min walk; Bashamichi (Minatomirai Line), 6-min walk - Chinatown: 10-min walk - Red Brick Warehouse / Minato Mirai start: 15-min walk [Check rates at Richmond Hotel Yokohama Bashamichi](https://www.trip.com/hotels/yokohama-hotel-detail-1005566/richmond-hotel-yokohama-bashamichi/?Allianceid=9711325&SID=327049682&trip%5Fsub1=hotels-near-yokohama-chinatown&trip%5Fsub3=D19120229&ref=nipponstays.com) — from ¥7,000; rates vary by season. ## Pairing with Yamashita Park, Marine Tower and Evening Dining The Chinatown restaurant rows are open for browsing at any time, but crowds peak between 6:00 PM and 9:00 PM on weekends. Arriving at 5:30 PM typically gets you seated without a wait at most restaurants. If you are staying near the gates, the Yamashita Park promenade is a good pre-dinner walk — 20 minutes end to end, with the harbor in front of you and the Chinatown lanterns warming up behind. The walk back along the waterfront after dinner, with Marine Tower lit up, is the standard Chinatown-evening itinerary and takes no planning at all. For a broader Yokohama base — say, if you also want time in Minato Mirai — Richmond Bashamichi or JAL City Kannai keep you closer to the Minatomirai Line. The [Minato Mirai hotel guide](https://www.nipponstays.com/hotels-in-minato-mirai/) covers the tower district a few stations north if that side of the bay is your priority. ## Compare the Picks | Name | Area | Price range | Best for | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- | ------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------- | | [Hotel New Grand](https://www.agoda.com/hotel-new-grand-yokohama/hotel/yokohama-jp.html?cid=1968926&tag=hotels-near-yokohama-chinatown&ref=nipponstays.com) | Yamashita Park / 1-min from Motomachi-Chukagai | from ¥20,000 | Historic stay, harbor at the door, Chinatown 2 min away | | [Rose Hotel Yokohama](https://www.trip.com/hotels/yokohama-hotel-detail-704334/rose-hotel-yokohama/?Allianceid=9711325&SID=327049682&trip%5Fsub1=hotels-near-yokohama-chinatown&trip%5Fsub3=D19119900&ref=nipponstays.com) | Chinatown / 5-min from Motomachi-Chukagai | from ¥8,000 | Closest mid-range, pool and gym on-site | | [Daiwa Roynet Hotel Yokohama-Koen](https://www.trip.com/hotels/yokohama-hotel-detail-1454519/daiwa-roynet-hotel-yokohama-koen/?Allianceid=9711325&SID=327049682&trip%5Fsub1=hotels-near-yokohama-chinatown&trip%5Fsub3=D19120257&ref=nipponstays.com) | Yokohama-Koen / 5-min walk to Chinatown | from ¥8,000 | Freshly renovated, stadium-park setting, multi-station access | | [Hotel JAL City Kannai Yokohama](https://www.trip.com/hotels/yokohama-hotel-detail-704354/hotel-jal-city-kannai-yokohama/?Allianceid=9711325&SID=327049682&trip%5Fsub1=hotels-near-yokohama-chinatown&trip%5Fsub3=D19122602&ref=nipponstays.com) | Kannai / 5-min walk to Chinatown | from ¥8,000 | Upper mid-range, spa, dual subway line access | | [APA Hotel Yokohama Kannai](https://www.trip.com/hotels/yokohama-hotel-detail-123274404/apa-hotel-yokohama-kannai/?Allianceid=9711325&SID=327049682&trip%5Fsub1=hotels-near-yokohama-chinatown&trip%5Fsub3=D19119627&ref=nipponstays.com) | Kannai / 10-min walk to Chinatown | from ¥5,700 | Budget, 1-min from Kannai Subway, large spa | | [Richmond Hotel Yokohama Bashamichi](https://www.trip.com/hotels/yokohama-hotel-detail-1005566/richmond-hotel-yokohama-bashamichi/?Allianceid=9711325&SID=327049682&trip%5Fsub1=hotels-near-yokohama-chinatown&trip%5Fsub3=D19120229&ref=nipponstays.com) | Bashamichi / 10-min walk to Chinatown | from ¥7,000 | Bashamichi atmosphere, Chinatown + Minato Mirai both reachable | ## Practical Tips: Late Dinners, Walk Times and Nearest Exits - **Best station for gate access:** Motomachi-Chukagai (Minatomirai Line), Chūkagai Exit — about a 4-min walk to the main eastern gate.
