Hotel Details

Location

Set in the heart of Shinjuku's Golden Gai entertainment district, a 7-minute walk from JR Shinjuku Station and 20 km from Tokyo Haneda Airport.
The apartment sits directly above Golden Gai, an area famous for its narrow alleys lined with over 300 tiny bars. Despite being surrounded by nightlife, the concrete construction and corridor-facing rooms keep interiors quiet. Shinjuku Station (East Exit or Exit 15B via underground passage) is a 7-minute walk, giving access to the Yamanote line and multiple subway lines for exploring Tokyo. A Family Mart convenience store is 30 seconds away. Nearby attractions include the Samurai Museum (300 metres), Shinjuku Subnade and SanPark shopping malls, and the Robot Restaurant (0.5 km). For those arriving by air, Haneda Airport is 20 km away.

Accommodation

Rooms are spacious by Tokyo standards, with private bathrooms, air conditioning, a washing machine, and a fully equipped kitchen.
All units feature a private bathroom with a bath and shower, heating, air conditioning, a tea and coffee maker, and a wardrobe. The kitchen includes a stovetop, refrigerator, microwave, and kitchenware. Twin rooms have two beds that can be separated by about 60 cm on request. Double rooms and one-bedroom apartments offer a similar layout with balcony access. Upper-floor rooms are reachable by lift. The property is recently renovated, and rooms are described as clean, quiet, and well-equipped. Free welcome snacks and bottled water are provided.

Dining

The kitchen allows self-catering, and there are many restaurants and bars within a few minutes' walk.
Each room has a full kitchen with a stovetop, microwave, fridge, and kitchenware, making it easy to prepare your own meals. Nearby dining options include Ramen Nagi (0.5 km), Shinjuku Tsunahachi Sohonten (0.5 km), and other eateries around Shinjuku. Golden Gai itself offers a vast selection of tiny bars and izakayas directly outside the door. A Family Mart convenience store is a 30-second walk for snacks, drinks, and basic groceries.

Wellness and Leisure

No on-site spa or gym, but a 24/7 public onsen is located one block away.
There are no wellness facilities within the property, but a public bathhouse (onsen) operates 24 hours a day just a block from the building, offering a traditional Japanese bathing experience. The apartment's central location puts you within walking distance of Shibuya, Shinjuku's shopping and entertainment districts, and the Golden Gai nightlife scene.
