Catch a bird's eye view of Tokyo from our rooftop decks
Tokyo’s cramped streets, while brimming with charm and liveliness, leave something to be desired in terms of wide open spaces. For many who have been living in Tokyo for a while, the need to get out into open spaces can be somewhat oppressive, and many people spend a fair amount of money to just get out of the city for a bit. But what if there was an option of getting above all of the cramped hustle and bustle and enjoying your neighborhood from a bird’s eye view? At Social Apartments, we’re happy to offer just such a solution.
Many of our properties boast not only access to the roof, but fully realized rooftop terraces, complete with awesome views and plenty of fresh air. Enjoy a barbecue in the middle of the city, or have a nice drink under the stars at night. For those seeking a chance to enjoy their own private outdoor experience, these are our favorite rooftop getaways at Social Apartment.
SOCIAL APARTMENT EBISU
Enjoy the sprawling 360 degree views of one of Tokyo’s most beloved neighborhoods. With sprawling views of the nearby park (perfect for Spring cherry blossoms or Autumn leaves) and a great view of the Meguro skyline, this is a great place for residents to gather for a day of fun, or just a simple coffee on the roof.
WORLD NEIGHBORS GOKOKUJI
Located on the 9th floor, this small rooftop enclave offers excellent views of the expansive residential portion of Bunkyo-ku. Perfect for barbecues, brunches, or any time that you want to go outside and take in a breath of fresh air. Make sure to look to your right for a quick glimpse of the nearby temple grounds and Tokyo Sky Tree in the distance.
WORLD NEIGHBORS KIYOSUMI-SHIRAKAWA
On the top floor of our newest property is one of our largest and best equipped rooftop decks.

Enjoy the awesome view of Tokyo Sky-tree and the canals of Koto-ku from one of the best vantage points in the area. And when you’re ready to retire indoors the nearby 10th floor bar lounge is the perfect place for the next part of your evening.
SOCIAL APARTMENT MITAKA
Perched just above the roofline of the surrounding residential neighborhood, the rooftop of Social Apartment Mitaka is one of our most breath-taking. Take in the contrast of the quaint houses of Mitaka and the newly sprouting tower mansions near the station, and in the distance take note of the green oasis of Inokashira Park, with the world famous Studio Ghibli museum.
The perfect place for events and meals outside, residents of Social Apartment Mitaka are well known to take advantage of this beautiful view.

The terrace lights-up at night, so you can continue enjoying under the shooting stars.
SOCIAL APARTMENT AOBADAI
