Spending the Night at Narita Airport (Airport Overnight Guide)
Reliability: Medium · Last checked: 2026-10-03
Your options for getting through the night at Narita — the floors open 24 hours, Nine Hours and NODOKA (open 24 hours) — and what to watch out for.
In short
You can stay overnight inside the terminals at Narita Airport, and sleeping at the airport is common, especially among passengers on late-night and early-morning LCC flights. To spend nothing, use the floors open 24 hours; for more comfort, Nine Hours Narita Airport and Airport Cafe NODOKA in Terminal 2 are the options.
Floors Open 24 Hours
These are the floors the airport officially lists as open 24 hours. Floors not listed here close late at night (roughly 24:00–5:00).
- Terminal 1: 1F (international arrivals, domestic departures), B1F
- Terminal 2: 2F (domestic arrivals), 1F (international arrivals, domestic departures), B1F
- Terminal 3: 2F (international and domestic departures), 1F (international and domestic arrivals)
In Terminal 3 both the departure and arrival floors are open 24 hours, which makes it the usual place for LCC passengers to sleep at the airport.
Your options
- Nine Hours Narita Airport (B1F of Parking Building 2, directly connected to Terminal 2; 24-hour reception) — A capsule hotel. Besides overnight stays, day use (napping) is ¥1,500 for the first hour (then ¥500 per hour) and shower only is ¥1,000 for up to 1 hour. Overnight and day-use guests can shower for free. Check-out is at 10:00. It can be fully booked on the day, so booking ahead is recommended for overnight stays
- Airport Cafe NODOKA (Terminal 2, Main Building, 2F, before security; open 24 hours) — A café and rest facility charged by time. It has reclining seats, mat seating and an artificial-grass area, plus separate shower rooms for men and women and free soft drinks. No reservation is needed, and you may bring your own food and drinks
- Benches and rest spaces in the terminals — Free. You wait on the 24-hour floors above. The lights and announcements stay on, so an eye mask and earplugs help you rest
- Refresh Rooms (after passport control in Terminals 1 and 2) — They have nap rooms, but close by 21:30 at the latest, so you cannot use them late at night
Places to Eat Late at Night
Open 24 hours: Lawson on B1F of Terminal 1; Yoshinoya in the Main Building of Terminal 2; and Lawson and Matsuya in Terminal 3 (all before security). The 24-hour 7-Eleven on B1F of Terminal 2 is temporarily closed (Narita Airport's official shop page, as of October 2026).
Points to Note
- The airport officially notes that cleaning or construction work may take place late at night and early in the morning. It is not necessarily a quiet place to rest
- The areas open overnight and how they are run may change. Follow the signs and staff on site
- You are responsible for your valuables. Do not leave your bags unattended
