Rocky Bouldering Gym Shinagawa — Local services in Tokyo

Would rate this place a 1 but then again I didn’t get to climb there so won’t take my rage out on them and will only give an assessment on the details from my experience.

The access is pretty bad and it’s far from Shinagawa train station. As a long time climber I decided to go climb here after work on one of the few evenings I have here in Tokyo. I walked here from the train station in poring rain and after 35min of walking I get there and they tell me that they do not accept card (bite bring lots of cash). Then I tell them I have cash and they start making up all these unnecessary fees that add up to 3,500+¥. Not sure why anyone would ever pay so much for a mediocre Climbing gym day pass so far from everything and with such attitude. Why do I need a registration to boulder for a 1 day pass? I’ve climbed in gyms all over the world and never had this experience. Me only having 3000¥ in cash they don’t let me in. I mean cmon you could have let me slide or asked me to pay it differently. So here I am not being able to climb having to walk back and travel back to my hotel for another hour in the rain. Thanks guys!

Tried in November for the first time, and again in december. Decent sized space, relatively quiet although could feel crowded if it got anywhere near the 120 people capacity suggested on the website, especially where problems overlap. Edit: Setting seems to be done every few weeks, I’d previously misread the Japanese, BUT some holds remain quite worn. Fine to...

Cool boulders and decent hold variety. They are quite a lot of boulders compared to other Tokyo gyms for the small space. The gym has a good training area and some beastmaker 2000 hang boards. The gym is only missing a few harder Boulder, some jumpy Boulders and...
