8.6Verified guest“We had a lovely stay — the location was fantastic, just a short walk from the train station, and the complimentary water, tea, and coffee each day were a nice touch. The room was clean and the staff were always ready to help, even with language barriers. The on-site onsen was great, and the nearby Nepali restaurant was a delicious bonus.”
8.6Verified guest“No complaints at all. Well-designed, modern accommodation with a handy location near countless restaurants, with a Starbucks above and the train/subway close by. Courteous staff throughout.”
8.6Verified guest“The location was incredible and stunning, in the Shinjuku Ward district and a walk from the train station. Being on a quiet side street made it easy to find.”
8.6Verified guest“Fantastic stay! The hotel is right in the Korean district, super vibrant, and just a couple of minutes from the train station. The staff were really lovely, and I appreciated the free coffee and tea. The on-site onsen was a nice perk — mostly empty — and I enjoyed a fine city view from my room on the 10th floor.”
8.6Verified guest“Fairly clean, brand-new hotel with an incredible location right next to the metro, which takes you to most of the main sights for a first trip to Tokyo. Close to train/subway, walkable to Kabukicho and Shinjuku. Quiet side street, compact room, modern with a comfortable bed.”
8.6Verified guest“We really enjoyed the rooms and comfortable beds. The handy location was quite a walk from Kaichu Inari Shrine.”
