Guest Reviews
- Ilaria (9/5): Excellent location to visit Tokyo - The staff was gentle and very polite
Very good location, a few blocks from JR shinjuku station, the metro station is a couple minutes away
The room was spotless clean The room was a little small, but good for the Tokyo standards
Also, it had a small window with no view
- Amedeo24 (7/5): - bon emplacement, personnel gentil et souriant. La chambre était propre Samedi soir impossible à dormir à cause du bruit extérieur. sinon les autres nuits, c'était plutôt vers 3-5h du matin que des gens crient dehors. Je pense que c'est un peu une ruelle spéciale...
Salle de bain très petite.
- Melea (10/5): -
- Nancy (8/5): Nice, a bit small but nice for a few days -
- Michelle (10/5): - Free toiletries like toothbrush, hair brush. Close to amenities, out of all 4 hotels we stayed at in Japan this one was our favourite. A bit more spacious than others, very friendly welcome by a domestic and reception staff. Clean. AHH free wine as well at the reception!! All good :)
- Gabriela (5/5): Não é um hotel para estadias mais longas - Localização Quartos extremamente pequenos, mau cheiro
- Larissa (7/5): - Localization was the best about staying there, and the staff was super nice all the time. They also knew English, which facilitated things. It was too small, 2 people would have had difficulty moving around together. It barely had space for me to open my luggage, if I had someone else I think I would go crazy. The bed was kinda hard as well.
- Katarzyna (9/5): Fantastyczna obsługa i wygodny pokój - Wspaniała obsługa, fantastyczni ludzie pomocni na każdym kroku, zdecydowanie najlepszy personel hotelu z jakim mieliśmy do czynienia w Japonii :)
Na gości czekają szampan, ciastka i różne inne przekąski co jest mega miłą niespodzianką. Hotel jest jakąś minute od stacji Shinjuku Gyoenmae i parę minut od Sanchōme, więc jest to świetna baza wypadowa żeby zobaczyć resztę dzielnic Tokio. Okna się otwierają więc to ogromny plus, bo w Tokio to rzadkość, ale tutaj też odejmuję jedną gwiazdkę bo o ile cieszę się że mogłam otworzyć okno na całej długości, to było to bardzo niebezpieczne - za oknem 5 pięter w dół w przestrzeń między budynkami praktycznie bez wyjścia gdyby cokolwiek się stało, a okno było na wysokości łóżka więc odradzam spanie z otwartym :)
Ogólnie bardzo miłe wrażenia i wygodny pokój, bardzo wygodne łóżko 💖✨ Niezabezpieczone okna na wysokości łóżka (okna otwierają się całkowicie i byłoby to ok gdyby nie fakt że nasze łóżko było tuż koło okna na tyle, że moznaby nawet wypaść pare pięter w dół)
- Paul (5/5): If my room had a desk and one or more chairs I would have been very satisfied. - Complimentary wine and small snacks. One major complaint: my room was big, but lacked a desk or a chair, though there was plenty of space for both.
- Luci (7/5): - Great location. The room was quite small.
- David (3/5): - Location was great Very loud cleaning staff working throughout the night. Our room smelled like smoke. We asked for clean towels and never received them
- Chureemart (10/5): - Best location, room is very clean, staff is friendly and helpful, recommended
- Stefan (6/5): young and cool - once you dont find another place: you can make it
- Steven (9/5): -
- Panagiotis Papailias (5/5): Not recommended (especially for claustrophobic) - - Location and only
- Toilet/bathroom was decent - Super tiny rooms
- No fresh air and the only window of the room was 30x20cm and was looking at the wall of the neighbouring building that it was so close that if I would extend my arm out of the window I could catch the other building - that narrow
- No daily room service - In fact we had to inform the reception every single time we were leaving the room about what time we would come back just so they can change the towels!
In general, we paid over 110€ per night and the budget didn't reflect the value that we could have.
In every European capital with less budget we could have way better accommodation
- gwenaelle (9/5): Bon hôtel pour visiter Tokyo quartier Shinjuku - Personnel souriant et beaucoup de produits mis à disposition gratuitement (thé, petits gâteaux, vin, eau chaude et froide) Chambre un peu petite
- Alberto (8/5): -
- Armin (9/5): -
- Paige (8/5): Great service, great location, great value for money - Great location!! The staff were all super lovely and lots of amenities Extremely small room, there was no where to put my bags
- geraldine (8/5): Súper bien positionné pensez à prendre des boules quies - Le personnel Effectivement c’est bruyant mais avec des boules quies pas de soucis
- Johnny (9/5): -
- Rylan (10/5): Very convenient - It was right by the shinjuku gyoen garden, shinjuku pit inn, a 7-eleven and only a ~10min walk to the Shinjuku train station. The staff was extremely nice as well.
- Erihara (10/5): -
- Mark (10/5): Excellent place to stay in the heart of Tokyo. - Easy to find colourful building.
The room and bathroom seemed brand new.
Great facilities, even free wine and nibbles!
- Angela (6/5): -
- KAZUHIRO (5/5): 残念 - 場所は良い 出張で利用しましたが、デスクが無くて不便であった
- Gerard (8/5): Malgré tout très agréable et si je reviens l’année prochaine pour d’autres séminaires ou je le repre - Le personnel très sympathique et toujours présent pour nous apporter leurs aides Chambre trop petite car en déplacement pour séminaire et passage de grade de Kendo manque de place, juste un peu plus grand m’aurais convenu
Et le manque de petites étagères pour ranger un minimum pour quelqu’un restant 11 jours à l’hôtel
- Geremy (8/5): Great are the staff, location, price and size of room for ONE. - No food at the hotel. Lots of food options near the hotel. Took a bit to get used to having 10cm of space outside of the window.
- Taylor (9/5): Loved it, would stay again - Clean, lots of amenities, felt safe
- thierry (6/5): -
- Connor (8/5): -
- Valentin (8/5): - Very accomodating staff and good location Must be one of the first hotels in Japan that did not have a bidet
- rayuela (10/5): - The staff is the the best, 10 for the recepción staff. Tha girl was really helpful, great service
- Natalija (10/5): -
- Jose Carlos (10/5): -
- Kyle (8/5): -
- Coral (7/5): -
- Carl (10/5): My Tokyo Visit. - The location was great. The area had great shopping and restaurants. Public transportation was close by and easy to access. The hotel staff were friendly and provided assistance with recommendations of sites to visit
- Kate (8/5): Comfort despite the obvious promiscuity of its intended use - Pleasantly suprised on how clean it was and quiet given the nature of the room and surroundings
- Nikol (10/5): -
- Dunia (5/5): - Non offrono servizio deposito bagagli.
- Julian (7/5): -
- Xavier (8/5): -
- Büşra (1/5): I wouldnt recommend it. Really bad hospitality! - The location They take the keys during day which is ridicolous! And also they didnt let me drop my suitcase until my flight time. So ı had to carry it with me.
- Siyit (6/5): - Nothing The room, the window with view of the staircase, the bed with a mattress of very thin I have never seen in my life and the vibrations under the bed .
- Mr. Wanchai (7/5): - ไม่มีบริการ ควรมีอาหารเช้าบริการ
- Luara (10/5): -
- z0neea (10/5): Divertido y cómodo - Me gustó mucho el trato recibido nada más llegar, con aperitivos y bebidas gratuitas. El personal ha sido un 10, súper amables y siempre atentos a cualquier petición. Habitación espaciosa, ordenada y muy limpia. Sin duda, si quieres estar en el ambiente de Shinjuku, Rocks es tu hotel. No es negativo y se comprende, pero el sistema de dejar la llave al salir, es un poco incómodo.
- Brielle (10/5): I never write reviews but my stay here was so lovely and the staff were so kind I had to! - The hotel was beautiful! You can tell it is most likely an undercover love hotel BUT that doesn't matter, the rooms are so clean and gorgeous! Every time you leave for the first time of the day they ask if you'd like your room cleaned and if you want new amenities! The bed was huge and super comfy, I also loved the adjustable lights. The staff were so kind and always greeted me whenever they saw me even if it was just housekeeping! Most of the staff speak fluent English as well, good for foreigners. The location is also very convenient, right next to a lot of station entrances and the walk to the station is about 8 minutes. If I ever come back to Tokyo I will 100% be staying here again! The only thing that was mediocre was just the wifi, it wasn't bad though. It would just be a little slow every once in a while. But was stable for the most part.
- Johannes (6/5): Redelijk - De ligging Het stonk in de gangen en de lift. Boeiend publiek soms voor maar heel even
- Michaella (10/5): -
- Jose R (8/5): Central spot for a stay at Shinjuku - Location was great, customer service was good & the complementary wine : KODAKA JOSIE at the front desk was fantastic - Thank you for all your help The funky smell in the elevator
- Steve (8/5): - Zona molto centrale. Personale molto gentile e disponibile. Zona con vita notturna decisamente attiva, con locali che aprono a mezzanotte. A due passi da Kombini e metropolitana. Bibite gratuite, anche alcolici, all'ingresso. Bagno estremamente piccolo e c'erano odori strani tipo chiuso/muffa nell'ascensore e nei corridoi.
- HSING-YU (8/5): - 地點很棒 無
- toru (8/5): -
- Artur (10/5): - Lokalizacja Chalas w nocy
- Giulia (7/5): - Lo staff, prodotti per l’igiene e il piccolo buffet all’ingresso Stanza un po’ sporca e umida
- Romans (8/5): Fun stay in Nichome Shinjuku - Cool interior, clean, helpful staff, comfortable bed, large tv, convenient location. this was not a problem for me but the property also operates as a "love hotel" which can be rented for short term intervals for couples to spend some "quality" time together. Don't let that scare you. rooms are superclean and you can request cleaning services when you go out for the day at the front desk. also my room did not have a bidet toilet.
- Steven (6/5): - Interieur Slecht bed, gehorige accomodatie
- Katrin (7/5): - Freundliche Mitarbeiter, Nähe zum Bahnhof und Sightseeing-Möglichkeiten Raucherzimmer - dazu keine Info im Voraus, das war wirklich eklig, lautes Nachtleben rund ums Hotel - u.a. Karaokebar in der schon mal morgens um 6 die Titanic noch einmal untergeht
- wayne (10/5): -
- Cristina (9/5): Experiencia en un hotel del amor de Shinjuku - Habitación doble en un hotel del amor de Shinjuku. Decoración peculiar, cómoda limpia y espaciosa. Puedes regalarte un momento de relax con la bañera y los productos de higiene y cosmética que te regalan. La señal de identidad de este barrio es su vida nocturna. Estuvimos un sábado y, aunque está muy bien insonorizado y estábamos en el sexto piso, se escucha gente gritando de madrugada. Eso depende más de educación de las personas, que de la responsabilidad del hotel.
- P (9/5): Good value - The staff were really nice and very polite. The price was good and the place was clean. The doors are thin so you can sometimes hear faint sounds of your neighbours hooking up if they are loud. But it's a love hotel, so it's to be expected.
- Yuuki (7/5): -
- Renzo (10/5): Excellent location - How inexpensive it is
- Geath (4/5): I feel bad to leave a negative review because the staffs were so nice! But I won't stay there again - the location is very convenient! Staffs are very nice and friendly! 1. The room was extremely small and has a moldy smell.
2. No windows that can look outside.
3. Extremely noisy from the outside and inside. The hallway plays music 24 hrs nonstop. And the doors are made of metal so we hear loud door slamming sound all night long! Could barely rest at night!
4. The bathroom looks very clean but has a very unpleasant stinky smell, it appeared 2 days after we checked in, it was so bad, like a dead rat rotting under the floor or above the ceiling, the odor was intolerable.
- Eric (8/5): Very good -
- Farisani (10/5): Excellent services - Cleaning, bathroom and bedding Nothing
- Jean-philippe (8/5): Very good - Convenient location. Pleasant staff. The microwave oven in the lobby didn't work.
No coffee supplied although tea and wine were.
- Pham (6/5): Pleasant - The bathroom was quite bad smell
- Ryan (4/5): Disappointing -
- Kathryn (8/5): It was pleasant for my first trip to Tokyo. As a solo traveler I felt safe. - Good location to walk lots of places to eat and shop within walking distance to Shinjuku Station.
- Smith (3/5): Probably more suitable to ‘pay by the hour’ at this hotel. - Great but noisy location in the heart of the gay district. The room had an unpleasant smell (mix of bleach and cigarette smoke). The bathroom had a portaloo/potty feel about it. The were helpful and pleasant.
- Roxanne (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tsastundarga (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sascha (8/5): Very good -
- Renee (1/5): We didnt stay. Left immediately after getting up to our room. UNSAFE - Nothing We booked for the night and did not end up staying. As soon as we got to our room we started looking for aomewhere esle to stay. As two women travelling alone we felt so unsafe. They then tried to stop us from leaving by holding my bag. We felt completely unsafe.
- Tsastundarga (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mahmoud (1/5): Worst place I have ever stayed - I like that is was a 15 minute walk to the main station. The main staff was nice and was just following policy. I didn’t like how this property Misrepresented price( posted price on site is way cheaper then website) almost 1/2 what I paid. They misrepresentation the hotel type ( it was a sleezy love motel). They rent rooms by the hour. How dirty it was and the fact you are treated like a kid and they will let not let you leave the property with the key you have to turn it in, even if you are going next door for coffee. The walls were super thin and you could hear people talking, watching TV, etc. huge gaps Beneath and above door. Extremely cramped bathrooms. Also nothing was provided, no water, no coffee, internet did not work.
- Wagner (7/5): Good place to start our trip to Japan. DON'T go Japan without a Japanese sim. E-sim didn't work.. - Nice quiet neighborhood. Cozy restaurant across the street. $200 cab ride should have taken train from airport. My bad.
- Andrie (7/5): Passable, nothing to rave about. - Cleanliness Room size
- Jason (7/5): The hotel offers an excellent location, affordable prices, clean and comfortable rooms, providing gr - The location is absolutely perfect, making it easy to explore the area and access all the key attractions. Despite being so well-located, the prices are incredibly affordable, offering excellent value for money.
The rooms were spotlessly clean, and the comfortable setup made it easy to relax after a day of sightseeing. I truly appreciate the attention to detail and the effort put into maintaining such a welcoming and cozy environment.
I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a combination of convenience, affordability, and comfort. I would definitely stay here again! There are a few areas that could use improvement. During weekends and late hours, the noise levels can be quite noticeable, which might disturb those looking for a quieter experience. Additionally, there was sometime a noticeable smell of smoke during the night, which was unpleasant.
Another aspect to consider is the key system. The use of an old-style physical key that needs to be dropped off every time you leave can be inconvenient, especially for guests used to more modern access systems.
I hope these points can be addressed to enhance the overall guest experience. Thank you for your hospitality!
- Sabitri (10/5): Exceptional -
- Simone (5/5): Good for gay bars in the area - Located in the gay district, not far from metro station and with tons of bars and restaurants in the area. The staff was very friendly. The room was creepy in a way and smelled very bad.
- Makan (10/5): I stay 3 days, it’s very central and easy access of everything - The location is perfect Nothing really
- Mark (9/5): Not for everyone, but perfect for solo. - Small room but had a window and everything I needed I have big feet and the slippers never fit.
A couple of furniture items don’t need to be in the room. Coat rack, small stool, basket of towels/robes.
- Mark (10/5): A great base for Tokyo and Shinjuku fun. - I loved my 5th floor room. The finishes were a bit over the top but the AC was great and the staff showed me how to use it. (Japanese language buttons) I had a window I could open, or close and cover which a door that blended in with the wall treatment. I had occasional friends stop in to visit and that seemed perfectly fine.
- Manatsave (8/5): Very good -
- Jennifer (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lijun (8/5): Very good -
- Yasuyoshi (9/5): Superb -
- Michael (8/5): Nice property but you pay twice as much by making a reservation. - The location was great and staff helpful. The room rate by having a reservation was more than DOUBLE than if you just walked in off the street and rented a room.
- Wee (8/5): Very good -
- Lowe (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kim (8/5): Very good -
- Derek (8/5): Very good -
- Mabel (9/5): Friendly staff. Thank you! - You will need to hand in the room key every time you leave.
- Sorrowsshogun (6/5): Mehhh - Clean Far too openly LGBTQ and hourly rates seems sleazy
- David (5/5): Sufficed for low budget hotel - WiFi very poor, rooms also sold by the hour, didn't effect stay If you stay for more than one night don't expect your room to be serviced
- Benjamin (10/5): Exceptional - The staff were amazing and super helpful. They made sure I had a very relaxing stay.
