Oedo Line Roppongi Station

There’s nothing wrong with the Oedo line or the Roppongi station itself. But with the Oedo line being a rather new subway line, it is a long walk up to the surface.
If you’re not in a rush, the walk up could take anywhere from 7 to 10 min. If you are rushing, the run up the escalators are like suicide runs on the track team.
But since there’s only two subway lines in Roppongi, if Hibiya is not gonna take you to your destination, you gotta do what you’ve gotta do.

This is the best subway station in all of Tokyo.
It offers easy access to everything in Roppongi. From Midtown on one end to Roppongi Hills on the other, this is the way to get to Roppngi whether you are there for clubbing, shopping, sight seeing, going home, taking a walk or anything else.
Like all Oedo line stations, the station is nice new and clean. Even the bathrooms are clean and well maintained.
As others reviewers have noted, it is very deep underground. You should leave an additional 15 minutes to get from the platform to the exit.
Still you cannot beat he feeling of anticipation on what the night will bring as you ride the many escalators up to the street level. I agree so many great memories of coming to this subway station to start Fri or Sat night.
Best subway station ever!
It would only be better if it were open 24 hours per day!!!

My friend had been traveling with some day tickets for the day and it was time for a metro card. They have the pi k Pasmo machines here so we decided a custom card was i order. Unfortunately after a few tries it just wasnt taking the info. Were we being too obnoxious with the customization? We finally broke down and got a plain Pasmo card. Boo! And with that we caught the beginning of rush hour and jumped full force into it to catch our transfer station.

Grate endless soups and breadstix. I come here every special occasion. Weddings, graduations, TV finales. Also have great water. Lots of banks and banjos.
