Lodges in Japan

"Very friendly staff and clean facilities"

"Hotel is very conveniently located. Staff are friendly and helpful."

"Extremely convenient with JR Namba station just a short 5min walk though mostly covered areas. Dotonbori is also only 15mins walk away through the underpasses with lots of restaurants, cafes and a large supermarket accessible without even needing to be at street level. Room was clean and comfortable and I appreciate that the toilet bowl is angled slightly away from the wall to provide more legroom during usage. Non air-conditioned can get very windy and cold but it’s a good way to reduce energy consumption. Daily parking with a flat rate of ¥2000 per day and allowing unlimited entry and exit is convenient, but there can be long queues during peak hours."

"The hotel reception is located in the mall building, 3rd floor. It’s honestly great because there’s a Lawson and family mart within the building opened 24/7. You can even walked Shinjuku station completely underground!! There’s also a bunch of restaurants in the hotel if you want a convenient option. This hotel is extremely walkable to Shinjuku and easy to hop on the bus to Harajuku or Shibuya (20 min bus ride). The room was small but manageable if this is your first location you’re exploring. Definitely get a bigger room if you feel like you need the space to place all your shopping finds. The hotel staff are so friendly and welcoming!"

"Property is on a convenience location, train station and restaurants. It does have a lot amenities inside the hotel. The only upside down was that cleaning staff for the room was not the most efficient. Inside restaurants I DO NOT recommend, always find restaurants around the area even at the train station are good places to enjoy delicious meals."

"Breakfast was nice"

"Room been cleaned everyday Breakfast is okay but served same as everyday, prefers fruits on breakfast for me, but everything almost perfect!"

"Stayed at the APA Hotel Shinjuku Kabukicho Tower and honestly had a great experience overall. Yes, the rooms and bathrooms are SMALL. Probably even smaller than you’re expecting no matter how many reviews you read saying “the rooms are tiny.” But realistically, other than sleeping, we barely spent any time in the room anyways because we were out exploring Tokyo all day and night. The beds were surprisingly comfy and we had great sleeps every night. The AC also worked perfectly, which was a lifesaver after long days walking around Tokyo. The hotel itself (lobby / common areas / rooms) were absolutely clean and totally fine for what we needed. Front desk staff and security were always friendly and helpful as well. The biggest selling point here is LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION. If you want to stay right in the heart of Shinjuku and be walking distance to restaurants, bars, nightlife, transit, shopping, and everything happening in Tokyo, this location is incredible. 711 / Family Mart / Starbucks right outside the door. Only downside for me personally (and honestly not the hotel’s fault, more of a cultural thing in Japan) was the onsen tattoo policy. Tattoos either needed to be covered, with a max of 2 cover patches allowed, or no entry. Sadly I have a few tattoos so I wasn’t able to use the onsen. Just something to be aware of if you’re tattooed and want to use the service. Would I stay here again? Absolutely. No issues at all."

"Breakfast was great with lots of variety. Rooms were clean and decently sized for our group. Bathrooms were spacious with both separate options for bathtub and shower.Overall enjoyed our stay here."
