It's been a week since I returned from Tokyo, and I finally have time to sit down and write a review for this hotel. Let's start with the pros:

1. The location is generally good, though not as 'super unbeatable' as some reviews claim. Perhaps because it happened to be raining that day, and my phone's navigation wasn't very reliable, we ended up circling Shinjuku Station multiple times and it took us at least 30 minutes to find the hotel. Actually, if you exit Shinjuku South Gate and turn right, walk about 200 meters down a slight slope (it was slippery in the rain, a bit tough on shoes), then turn left after Wendy's, go straight until you see a FamilyMart, and the hotel is right across from it. The whole walk should take about 5 minutes. The hotel is conveniently located next to a subway entrance, making transportation very easy. Shinjuku Station's 3rd floor houses the express bus terminal, where you can find self-service ticketing machines with Chinese language options. A 1500 JPY ticket takes you directly to Haneda Airport. Shinjuku truly has everything you could ask for. Within a kilometer of the hotel, you'll find plenty of dining, entertainment, and shopping options. Kabukicho isn't too far either. It gets very crowded at night, and it's easy to get lost. Within 200 meters of the hotel, there's a McDonald's and a sports store. There's also a FamilyMart across the street, though you need to walk a bit further and cross a pedestrian crossing. Surprisingly, this particular FamilyMart doesn't sell stamps!

2. Conveniently, there's a shuttle bus service to and from Narita and Haneda airports right downstairs. However, just to be safe, I still opted to drag my luggage to the main bus terminal to catch my ride.

3. The staff members were generally very enthusiastic and helpful. In particular, a slightly overweight gentleman with glasses at check-out proactively assisted me with luggage storage and the self check-out process. The only exception was the young lady who handled my check-in; her speech was quite fast, giving the impression she was a bit rushed.

4. The lobby offered a wide array of complimentary self-service amenities, including makeup remover, facial cleanser, toner, lotion, toothpaste and toothbrushes, hair ties, razors, and cotton pads, as well as tea bags and coffee. These items pretty much covered all daily skincare needs, which was incredibly convenient. The facial cleanser, in particular, was quite good.

5. Although the room was small, it was well-equipped. Upon check-in, the front desk assigned me to the top floor, the 14th. The card-key access for the elevator provided an added sense of security. From the window, I could see the Don Quijote store in the distance, though it wasn't noticeable at night. In the daytime, I noticed the building opposite had rooftop exhaust fans – fortunately, the soundproofing was excellent, and I couldn't hear any noise from them inside the room. My favorite part was the air conditioning. Every day, after returning hot and tired, I'd set the temperature to 20 degrees Celsius and maximum fan speed, and the entire room would cool down in less than ten minutes. In the mornings, I'd hang out the 'Please clean' sign, and upon my return, the room would be spotless. However, the corridor was a bit winding, requiring two turns to reach my room. There was a laundry room next to the elevator, although I didn't use it. The pillows were very comfortable; I slept soundly both nights.

Of course, there are a few areas for improvement:

1. The young lady at the front desk during check-in wore a mask and spoke English quite quickly, giving the impression that she wanted to finish up quickly. It would have been better if guests could see a genuine smile.

2. The round mirror in the room faced directly towards the bed, which felt a bit unsettling. I hope the hotel can consider the cultural sensitivities of Chinese guests.

3. The toothbrush provided was really subpar; the bristles were too hard, and I actually made my gums bleed while brushing.

Overall, this hotel is still quite good and will be on my list for future stays.

stayed for 5 nights and had a pleasant experience. Location is good (near subway station approx 3-4 mins), room is comfortable and there’s plenty of restaurants around! The room is on the smaller side, you can only open 1 big luggage at a time but the toilet is quite big.

Great location, just a 5-10 minutes walk to the main ginza shopping area. However the room is very small, i have two big luggage and will have to take turns to open each one.

A typical Japanese hotel with small rooms. It is close to Ueno Station, which is convenient for shopping and eating. It is cost-effective. Note that it is not on the roadside, so you need to read the road signs. There is a small 24-hour food court next to it, which is relatively close. If you are farther away, you can go to the food court at Ueno Station, where there are more choices, such as this eel rice, which is very good.

The service was very good and the amenities we can take as many as needed. The food was very good also. Though the staff did not call to remind for our checkout time and we were 30mins late to checkout, the hotel did not charge us since it was New Year as their compliment for their customer. So thank you so much Hotel Sunroute Sopra-Kobe and looking forward to stay here again when we go back here in Kobe 😉

Most comfortable bed that I stay in Japan for the past 2 months. Lucky we stay here for 4 nights. Bed is very firm but not hard which is good for our back. Room is very clean and bathroom is spaces that I can sit on bath tub and shower. It would be perfect if the room is slightly bigger. They charge parking for 2000¥ for night  which is too high for me but the front desk young lady ( ********* girl) who was very friendly and helpful, she recommended me to park my car at nearby coin parking which cost me on 800¥ for 24 hours. Thank you so much Miss 余.

It's about a 15-minute walk from the station, which might be a bit far if you have heavy luggage. However, there don't seem to be any hotels directly around the station. It's also 800 meters from the main Nebuta festival venue. This is a chain hotel, and their other branch is closer. The Nebuta festival here is definitely worth seeing. However, if you're planning to travel to and from Aomori at night, I wouldn't recommend this location due to infrequent public transport, which can be somewhat risky.

It is about a 5-minute walk from JR Goshogawara Station and the bus stop. The transportation is convenient. Next to it is the Yakiniku Beef Tei, Cafe Poets, and Soba noodles, which are very convenient for eating. The hotel is relatively old, with complete facilities and a large bathhouse and comfortable hot springs. Stayed for two days. It is relatively far from Ashino Park, Dazai Osamu Sunkan, and Takayama Inari Shrine, and there are direct buses from the bus station. The Goshogawara bus one-day pass is 2,000 yen and 1,000 yen on weekends and holidays. It is still a good deal to travel to scenic spots. It's about an hour and 10 minutes away from Aomori Station. It's directly accessible by bus or by JR. The transportation is very convenient.
