Best Tokyo hotels with DJ parties

There's a dusk-till-dawn party vibe at this youthful hostel, which conveniently sits above Hachobori Station. In its basement, you'll find the super sleek Howl music venue and bar, which is open almost every day. The resident DJ Tomohiro, a man of eclectic musical tastes, is usually found on the decks about twice a week, while the acclaimed music producer Yosi Horikawa ensures everything sounds fantastic. 

Located on the 39th floor of Shinagawa Prince Hotel, Dining & Bar Table 9 Tokyo is a room with a view. It's also enormous, large enough to be divided into nine areas, including restaurants, lounges and bars. Ask for a seat at Nine Bar if you want to be close to the DJ booth. In a welcome change from many Tokyo bars, the DJ here spins lounge music at a volume that doesn't drown out conversation, which makes it perfect for a glamourous date night, accompanied by the spectacular city skyline. 

Few people know that there's a vast underground space hidden in hipster hangout Citan, a cool, contemporary hostel in Higashi-Nihonbashi. The basement lounge offers a wide range of eating and drinking options and boasts a superb sound system. You'll find DJs spinning discs over the weekends; expect an eclectic mix, with genres varying from disco to house, jazz to soul. The likes of Shuya Okino, DJ Nori and Takeshi Kubota have DJ'd here in the past. 

Shibuya's effortlessly stylish Koé packs an apparel shop, a restaurant and a hotel into its sleek glass shell — and it sure knows how to have fun. When the weekend rolls around, the reception desk in the industrial-chic lobby transforms into a DJ booth, and the space sometimes also hosts event by guest DJs and artists. With Masaya Kuroki of fashion brand Maison Kitsune in charge of the venue's music policy, you're in safe hands. There is a one-drink minimum for standing in the event space: as for the dining area, you should order at least a meal and a drink.
