Hotel Details

Location

A 5-minute stroll from JR Shin-Okubo Station places Shinjuku just 3 minutes away by train, with Harajuku and Shibuya reachable within 10 minutes.
The hotel is situated on a quiet side street yet surrounded by the lively Korean Town of Shin-Okubo, offering a wide array of restaurants, shops, and convenience stores such as 7-Eleven and Don Quijote within a few steps. Meiji Jingu Shrine and Yoyogi Park are about 20 minutes by train. The Yamanote Line provides direct and rapid access to central Tokyo landmarks, making car-free exploration straightforward. The neighbourhood is well-connected and walkable to Shinjuku for those wanting to explore after the last train.

Accommodation

Rooms are air-conditioned with a lively pale green and white décor, offering a flat-screen TV, desk, and small fridge. Bathrooms are private and include free toiletries.
All rooms are non-smoking and come with heating, an electric kettle, ironing facilities, and a carpeted floor. The standard rooms include a window. Some rooms are more spacious than typical for the price, comfortably fitting two large suitcases, and have separate toilet and sink areas with a shower-bath combination. Twin beds can be pushed together on request. The building has two floors with no elevator and no balcony.

Wellness and Leisure

The hotel does not have a spa, pool, or gym. The lively Korean Town and public transport access provide ample opportunity for exploration and activity.
Guests seeking recreational facilities will find the hotel's strength lies in its location rather than on-site amenities. There is a sports centre nearby offering affordable day passes for those wanting to exercise. For relaxation, the nearby Meiji Jingu Shrine and Yoyogi Park offer green spaces within a 20-minute train journey.

Facilities and Services

Free Wi-Fi, a 24-hour front desk, and complimentary luggage storage are available. Daily housekeeping and ironing service are included, and a coin laundry is a 2-minute walk away.
The 24-hour reception staff can assist with luggage storage both before check-in and after check-out, and can forward luggage to the next hotel if arrangements are made in advance (with payment condition). Daily housekeeping is provided, and toiletries are replenished. A coin-operated laundry is located 180 metres from the hotel (about 2 minutes on foot). The property is secured with CCTV, smoke alarms, and key access. Fax/photocopying is available. Accepted payment methods include major credit cards.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Request a room away from the road to improve sleep quality, as sound insulation between rooms and floors is limited.

  • 02

    Arrive early and use the free luggage storage to explore the area until check-in from 15:00; the 24-hour front desk accommodates late arrivals.

  • 03

    Plan to use the Yamanote Line at Shin-Okubo Station (5-minute walk) for a quick 3-minute ride to Shinjuku or direct access to Harajuku and Shibuya.
