Tokyu Stay Shinjuku Eastside

I stayed for 15 days for a business/education trip. I prefered a larger room. I was a bit worried about the area but it was in total a very good stay. My room was on 7th floor towards the main street. My room was good enough for 1 person as I stayed a long time. I do not think 2 person would be confortable for such a long time. There is no closet, but some hangers, which were fine. And the small kitchen was good to heat something and eat, or drink while working at my table by the window, watching the street. With all the hustle and bustle just round the corner, it is a clean and relatively quite part of Shinjuku. The underground exit of 2 different stops are very close to the hotel The staff is friendly and helpful Breakfast was very Japanese. There are very few western style items, but I've stayed in many 5 star hotels in Japan and could not find one single thing to eat. Here at least there was scrambled eggs, normal bread, Fresh juices and salad. (Especially the berry juice had been my favorate) Very fast and convenient check in and check out. The washing machine also has been very useful. The room is clean, but the cleaning service is provided one every 5 days. Only towels and wastes are changed daily. The hotel is very close to some conveience stores and restaurants The pharmacy just downstairs makes a 10% discount for hotel guests. Let them know you are the hotel guest and show your room card. The air condition worked perfectly well (ıt was nearly 40 degrees with 80%+ humidity)

Staff were amazing and went above and beyond to find us a reservation for NYE. It was our favourite meal in Tokyo. So please ask locals for your meals!

The twin room was great size compared to a double which was tiny and didn’t even have space to open the suitcase. The twin had a decent kitchenette whereas the double didn’t & only had tea/coffee making facilities. Friendly staff who let us leave our luggage prior to check-in and also arranged to forward the suitcases to our next hotel (at a cost of course). Location worked for us as we didn’t want to be too central, but close to underground station and a short walk to the main station. Great washer & dryers in each room. They provide washing liquid. Have additional items -toiletries & tea bags available at reception. Windows can be opened slightly for fresh air which was great to air the room. Beds were comfortable.

Largest hotel room I had during my trip to Japan. In-room amenities were not glamorous but awesome, including our own microwave (for those konbini runs) and in room washer and dryer (!). TVs had Netflix, which also turned out to be a rare and unique bonus for hotels. Location was very convenient in a very lively part of town. Only a 5 minute walk to a smaller train station, and about a 15 minute walk to the popular Yamanote Line. Staff was friendly.

Great location - an easy walk from Shinjuku station but also has a subway stop metres away. So close to the bright lights near the station and the bars of Golden Gai but away from the full on craziness. Convenience stores outside door. Welcoming staff with good English. Serene decor in rooms. Excellent value.
