APA Hotel Shinjuku Gyoemmae

Location - Away from the bustle of over-touristy (main) Shinjuku Conveniently located few steps away from Tokyo Metro (Shinjuku Gyoenmae station - Marounuchi Line - which goes to Tōkyō station - especially if you're arriving via Narita Express - no need to drop off from extremely confusing Shinjuku Station) Has quieter, neighborhood style restaurants and coffee shops; and a leisurely walk towards Shinjuku (via San-Cho-Me) - see shops, Isetan, two starbucks haha, local market, a Tsukiji-style restaurant as well Can stroll to nearby Shinjuku National Garden - extremely popular during autumn and Sakura seasons ----- Rooms This is a typical Japanese business hotel. DO NOT EXPECT a "decently sized" room. If you're booking for two persons and you've got big luggages - don't expect to have any more foot treading space left HAHAHAHA. Small bathroom, Japanese bidet toilet yes! Toothbrush, comb, shaver, towels - yes! Can also ask to clean room once a day ----- Onsen (Japanese style spa) - yes! Love it! -----

Hotel is exceptionally well located, about 50m from the Maranouchi line subway station Shinjuku Gyoemmae. Google doesn't tell you but you can change from the rail line when you come from the airport to the subway line at Shinjuku station and literally pop up 50m from the hotel front entrance. Very convenient and close to everything. There is heaps of dining bars and the park within easy walk. It was also quiet inside and we got a good sleep. The room was very small but comfortable and clean. We got the breakfast, which was pretty average, I wouldn't book the breakfast again as there are plenty of better food options nearby. Overall I totally recommend the hotel and would stay there again.

Self service laundry was great w/ 4 units ea. washer / dryer. Location is superior and convenient to explore all of Tokyo. Walking distance to Shinjuku Gyoenmae, Shinjuku Sanchome and Shinjuku stations. Neighborhood dining options are superior with multiple food choices to fit all budgets. Combinis short walk away and neighborhood grocery store nearby as well. Onsen was wonderful!

Being a Gay Traveler this location was a stones throw away from the 24 Kaikan Sauna and the Shinjuku gay bars plus very well connected to transit., Shinjuku Shopping Area is within walking distance ., The breakfast was bountiful and refreshments had a variety of options. Bath facilities had plenty of hot water and the free toiletries were a plus!, once again APA hotels are a perfect selection for a smart traveler! APA Hotel Nishi Shinjuku Gochome Eki Tower was a good choice you want to be in a quiet residential part of Tokyo!, but still this location was just as good and plenty of restaurants to choose from even a smoking cafe was withing walking distance called The Smokist Coffee

Location is perfect between to tube stations and walking distance to many touristic spots. The public bath is convenient and clean and opens until 12am which was a surprise for us. Rooms are small but enough for our purpose. space is used efficiently. There were no issues extending our check out time by paying a relatively small fee and this was helpful (same for checking in). Staff were always trying to help.
