“This hotel places you right in Shinjuku, yet tucked away on a quiet street-a prime location; I appreciate its modern design and the fact it welcomes all guests. While rooms might be compact, especially for couples with luggage, the proximity to transport links and the onsite cafe add real value. For solo travellers or those prioritising location, it's a smart base.”
