Hotels in Shinjuku Area, Tokyo

Room is small but very clean. Conveniently located about 15mins walk to Shinjuuku JR Station. Hotel serve a lovely buffet breakfast on the25th floor with a lovely view and a good selection of food! Definitely need to try !

Hotel lobby is on the 8th floor but the lift up to the lobby is quite slow. Room space is good compared with other hotels in Tokyo. Overall the hotel room is good except the toilet at the hotel lobby and the environment outside the building where you can see many sleeping on the roadside etc. Very crowded during weekends.

The room was quite spacious, and we found our 4-night stay very comfortable. The bed was also comfortable, not one of those overly soft types. The location was excellent, with FamilyMart and 7-Eleven stores conveniently located nearby. In fact, there's a 7-Eleven right on the ground floor of the hotel – it couldn't be more convenient! The hotel is very close to the subway station. You can easily walk to Shinjuku to catch a train, or take one from Tochomae Station. The hotel had quite a few international guests, and we were pleased to find a Chinese-speaking staff member at the front desk. The daily housekeeping was excellent, ensuring a very clean, pleasant, and comfortable stay.

The room was spacious, and the public areas were also very well-maintained. However, complimentary drinking water was not provided in the room; we had to go to the floor's water dispenser, which was a bit inconvenient. We didn't book breakfast as there were so many dining options available nearby. The hotel is very close to Shinjuku Station, easily accessible via the second-floor pedestrian deck, directly opposite Takashimaya – extremely convenient. The airport limousine bus stop is conveniently located right downstairs and is the first pick-up point. However, it then spends about 30 minutes going around to pick up other passengers, which feels like a wasted detour. Opting for the JR train or going to a different bus terminal yourself is also very straightforward and gets you to the airport in roughly 1.5 hours. Overall, the value for money wasn't particularly high, so I might explore other hotels in the vicinity on my next visit.

The hotel was very clean, and the service of staff was excellent especially up at the rooftop bar. Facilities wise the only thing I could fault them on was only having 2 washer/dryer machines. It a big hotel with a lot of guests so managing to use the washing/drying machines was hard work. Location although quiet it was not the best having to walk through the ********* ******** practically every time you were heading back from the train station area. In the end I began walking right around to avoid the constant hassle from the touts. Views from the rooftop bar were outstanding.

We liked the quieter location (15 minute walk from JR Line Shinjuku) and found it an excellent location overall. Most times, we were able to come back via the M, F, S line, and we used Exit E2 as it has an elevator - the subway station is big so you will still walk 8 minutes from the subway ticket machine exit to the hotel front door. The room was clean and had a fridge, good air conditioning, and a kettle. Beds were comfortable and had a soaker tub in the bathroom after all the walking. We liked that we could chose no room cleaning (magnetic sign outside door), yet the hotel still provides new towels for those days. We also used the coin laundry machine as well during our 5 nights stay. We didn’t purchase the breakfast option as we wanted variety outside versus same breakfast each day. We did not require early check-in or late check-out. The hotel does store luggage for later flights.  We would stay here again. Room feels renovated and clean and location is good if you don’t mind walking 10 minutes .

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.

The place was quite clean and had no musty smell. They provided essential toiletries like toothbrushes, toothpaste, a hairdryer, shampoo, body wash, and conditioner. Cotton swabs (Q-tips) are available upon request at the front desk. It's a bit of a walk to the subway station. Shinjuku Station is massive, so it takes over 10 minutes to walk, and it's quite easy to get lost. On my first day, I couldn't even find Exit 8 which my navigation was pointing to, and I ended up getting lost daily. Plus, it can get pretty hot during the summer. The staff were all very friendly and professional. They even went the extra mile to help press the elevator button for guests. Housekeeping isn't done daily; I believe it's every four days. On other days, someone just comes to replace the bath towels and garbage bags. My only complaint: the duvet had no cover! Why?! It was just a relatively clean bedsheet with a duvet placed on top, but without a duvet cover. When you sleep soundly and move around, the sheet and duvet inevitably get all tangled up. This would definitely be uncomfortable for anyone with a strong preference for hygiene.

Located in bustling Shinjuku, though it's a bit of a walk from Shinjuku subway station. The service was only adequate, and the street level downstairs felt a bit chaotic. On the plus side, it's fantastic for both shopping and dining, and the area truly comes alive at night.
