Hotels near Samurai Museum

I was looking for a cheap hotel in Shinjuku area, and really didn't mind if the rooms were small, as long as the place was clean, decent, and had a great location. APA Hotel in Shinjuku-Gyonmae fits the bill to a T. It may have bigger rooms, I don't know, but for solo traveller like me, I was just looking for 1 single room.The room was very small, as expected. But amazingly compact in design and complete. This is Japanese efficiency of putting everything together in such a small space. I had a study table, a mini ref, a hospitality coffee and tea, and a giant flat screen TV (this was the only big thing)! The toilet was also amazingly compact, but well designed to fit everything you would need, including automatic bidet and nice hot shower. The toilet seemed like a pre-fabricated module plug into the room, and was spotlessly clean! As a single traveller, the small space is really just enough for one to move around, but who cares, I just need a place to sleep and shower. And I must say, the bed quality and duvet was superb--super soft, although the pillows were flat (Japanese style?). It also had an aircon so I switched it on so it doesn't get so stuffy. The reading lights and switches are also well located in such a small space. And must I say that the wifi was super fast! The location is also just less than 5 mins. walk to Shinjuku-Gyonmae subway (Maranouchi Line) which connects to Shinjuku main station (2 stops away) where you can connect to so many trains. Around the area is quite New Yorkish (quiet side) with Choco croque, Tully's Cafe, Freshness Burger, Coco Ichibanya, many Family Marts and 7-11's, and a big nice park behind. Very safe and clean neighbourhood. I didn't book for breakfast, as it was easy to eat out. It also has a free sauna and spa at the lower basement in case you want to use. I just took a look. It was a small but very clean. Hotel is quite new, it seems, and actually is a tall hotel, seemingly a business hotel for Japanese businessmen o

This is the best experience I've ever had regardless of price. I've stayed at hotels all over Asia and little in Europe half the price and 3x the price. I've arrived at the above opinion 1 day into my 3 day stay, it was THAT good and it only got better even after I checked-out! Upon arrive we were notified the grade of our room was full and was upgraded without hesitation. I'm constantly surprised how many hotel try to hesitate on this obviously only thing to do. The term "Hotel" in Japan means a different thing than in the West, and I can assure you no matter where you come from this hotel will not be considered "small" like others in Japan. This is a proper Western sized hotel. We got a huge room with a large queen bed with wall to wall floor to ceiling window view of the whole Shinjuku district, to get a better view you probably have to go to the Shinjuku Gov building's observation floor. I could go into infinity details, but I will just say, the Japanese are really into details. In a totally anal sense, and the room was prepared and equipped to the best of their abilities. There are things and service in the room that you wouldn't think of needing, because they've thought about everything. For those of you backpackers who think you just need a room, you need to find something 1/2 of this price or else you are not getting good value. For those traveling with family like me, we need service! Like letting our 8yr old stay in the room without extra charge. Having a convenience store in the hotel. Airport shuttle at the lobby. Bath products that will make all the ladies scream. Close but not in the middle of it all in Shinjuku so we can have a relaxing stay, but also a covered conveyor belt walk way into the metro station, that make a huge difference during the rain! The whole service got even better after we checked out. I accidently left 2 expensive polo shirts and worse of all a stack of cash and only set of car keys in the room. I didn't rea

Shinjuku is the first city that we stayed. From Narita Airport to the city we use Narita Express NEX to the Shinjuke station, then we walked to the hotel, it took us about 10mins to reach. The weather is a bit windy, that's why is quite cold for this 10mins walk, otherwise the distance is actually not so bad. Good thing about this hotel is that it located quite near to the Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden (within walking distance) where we enjoyed our cherry blossom viewing over there! The Samurai Museum also is a recommended place to visit near the hotel, we learnt about history of Samurai and the similarity between Samurai and Star Wars! The breakfast is more focused on western buffet style, the food is fine though not much variety. Generally i enjoy my stay in Granbell with helpful staff and very clean room~

We stayed at APA for 3 nights are were very happy with our stay. It`s location is extremely convenient in central Shinjuku and is easy to find. Despite it being in a busy area, and from what we could see also being a very busy and popular hotel, the hotel and rooms are quiet and we were never disturbed. Despite the lobby being extremely busy and full of clients, our check-in was welcoming, professional, and smooth. The room was very small however it was clean and comfortable. The bed in particular was very comfortable. The public bath was also very clean and comfortable, and a very relaxing place to end each day. I am not sure I would rate the hotel as 4-stars however I have no major criticism. If the rooms were more spacious it may well deserve that rating. However, as they are restricted for space yet also chosen to squeeze-in a lot of rooms it somewhat reduces the feeling of ease and comfort. Overall however, it is a very good hotel and good value for money.

Location is great! It's close to everything and very clean. Concierge was very helpful in booking our day tours as well as taxi cabs and getting us tickets for the Digital Art Museum. My disappointment is that there are no drawers for undergarments or just general stuff like gloves, make-ups, accessories, etc. If they could add a few, that would be great. Also the restaurant on site (Bonjour) only offers buffet breakfast. It would be great if it could offer a non-buffet breakfast too. Dinner choices are also very limited.

This is the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in Tokyo till now. And I have been to Tokyo at least 7 times. First, this hotel is so new, just open this year and the room is much bigger than any traditional small room of hotels in central Tokyo. The location of the hotel is so good, close to subway station. You can take a walk or jog in the morning to Meiji Shrine, Omotesando and Meiji Shrine Outer Court. Also, the hotel has a hot spring in 10th floor and have a nice baseball stadium view and quiet atmosphere. The hotel is at Aoyoma region belonging to culture and education region. Before I only booked for staying at this hotel two days. After stayed this hotel two days, I really like it and decided to stay at this hotel for two more nights. I love this hotel so much, so I strongly recommend to and travelers who come to Tokyo to stay.

This hotel is the best located hotel from Shinjuku Station, after your tiring day - just 3 mins walking distance. Cleanliness - 5/ 5 Staff - 5/5 Check In & Check Out - 5/5 Surrounded by Lawson, Family Mart, Mc Donald and few other restaurants, After using the hotel for first 2 days in tokyo, we were supposed to travel to Osaka & back to Tokyo. So post osaka, we were supposed to check-in into Shinjuku Washington Hotel as per our booking. But we liked this hotel so much that we cancelled the booking at Washington Hotel & rebooked this hotel for further days in Tokyo. Luckily I had the option for free cancellation. But you please just go ahead with the booking at this hotel.

this is a typical Japanese business hotel. I stayed in the regulation size 9 m² room with the "capsule" bathroom. the layout and fitting of the room is almost exactly the same as many other hotels in Japan. I did not eat in the hotel, although there are some restaurants in the basement, because there is a multitude of small Japanese restaurants (and a StarBucks) about 10min walk from the hotel, towards Shinjuku station. There is an underpass from the basement of the hotel directly to Shinjuku station (useful when it's raining as it's a 15min walk). The best way to get to and from the airport (Haneda or Narita) is by airport bus (it was a short and convenient journey from Haneda). Room is quite good value for money - if the yen wasn't so stratospherically high would be excellent value for money. There are some hotels closer to Shinjuku station that this is the only one I could get into when I booked. Free Internet access using ethernet cable.

compared to all other best westerns around the world, i definately think this has to be one of the best ones? its easily a four stars in my standard, apart from the breakfast which werent up to standard (too japaneses orientated?) other things are great. the air con worked, all other things worked perfectly fine during our stay. the reception were helpful with enquiries about disney land, airport transfer etc. they helped us book a transfer at standard rate, it was a nice luxurious van and costed us around the same price as taxi. i enjoyed my stay here a lot and would def stay here again if i ever come back to tokyo.

It is a typical 3-star hotel room in Tokyo - small, clean, and with all the basic necessities. The best thing about it is the bed which is one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept on and also its proximity to the subway just across the street. The hotel is very strict and won't agree to an early check in or late check out without a corresponding fee which was disappointing.

I have been staying this hotel on the night before leaving Japan or the day I land in past few years. I would say the location is the best asset that they have. Surrounding shopping area has pretty much everything and very easy to get done the last minute souvenir shopping. Also the area offers so many place to eat. For business traveler who uses Haneda airport, Uber or taxi access is very good (about 30min+ ride in average). The only reason I put 4 stars for Facilities is that they don't do room-service from restaurants. If you are one of those "in-room" eaters, make sure to take out some food from either hotel restaurants or outside restaurants.

LOCATION At first I was apprehensive of this as I booked this by mistake as i wanted the one at Shinjuku. However, this was a happy mistake. From Narita, able to get on the express train to the train station with a toddler, a stroller and two luggages in tow. Walking distance from the station (approx 50m). Lots of nearby places to eat, and supermarket just across the street. From Yotsuya-Sanchome station, going to Shinjuku, Tokyo, Ginza, Shibuya is a breeze. AMENITIES Breakfast spread is very good. No lack of variety considering its excellent price point. No gym or pool though. That's a small downside. ROOMS Clean. Comes with humidifier which was a big bonus for someone coming from a tropical country. Can sleep better when the air is not as dry esp during winter. End state verdict. Booked by mistake. But did not regret it at all. Best mistake ever.

Just a 1 min walk frm Nishi-Shinjuku subway stn, 10 min walk frm Shinjuku station. Super convenient! Room was comfortable and clean, no complaints. There's a Family Mart nearby, Mac is opposite and so is I-Land (has Doutor and Ippudo). I'd recommend this hotel to family and friends. I wrote to the hotel group FB page for help to receive a letter and museum ticket from my friend in Japan, got a reply very fast. Reception staff handed me the mail automatically upon check-in. Big thumbs-up to Nishitetsu's service.

Even though the hotel was in the red light district, it was peaceful and easily accessible in between shin-okobo and shinjuku JR stations. Breakfast choices were good, though the seats are quite limited so I would suggest either you go to the breakfast 5 minutes before 7 or around past 8. Staffs were friendly and can speak english. Would recommend this if you are on a budget and wants to stay near the shinjuku center area. Worth to note that the samurai museum is just around a block away.

JR Shinjuku Station is about 10mins walking distance (with luggage in tow). Tokyo Subway lines F, M, and S Exit C3 is one minute walking distance (no escalator. Exit C4 about two minutes walking distance (with escalator). This serviced apartment/hotel is basically a convenient jump off point to many tourist attractions. Cleaning services only provided if you stay more than 7 consecutive nights, though towels and toothbrushes are replaced everyday. Check-in guys are very responsive and polite. The room as expected in Tokyo hotels is small but still good enough for 2 adults to move around. The feel of the room and toilet are like you're in a Cruise ship's cabin. It is quite cozy, modern and clean. One thing they could improve on is the quality of the toilet paper provided, it sticks on your skin when you wipe so it is quite troublesome. Overall, this is one of the best value hotels I've stayed at in Tokyo. We will definitely be back. P.S. free UCC coffee from 7am to 12mn. So this was very comforting during the morning when the weather was cold! :)

I never expected a decent size of a hotel room in Tokyo, so this hotel exceeded my expectation, it's a very modern, centrally located， right opposite to subway, and close to many local restaurants (we checked-in at 130am and walk less than 5 minutes to a nearby Izakaya with GREAT＋CHEAP FOOD!!!)hotel staff is very friendly, despite the fact that they don't speak English very well, they tried their best to assist you (We got a pre-booked taxi to the airport with plenty room for baggage and cheaper price! Hotel was nice to let us store our bags until 8pm when we back for the limo to airport. You can also walk around 10minutes to the Imperial Palace. Overall would definitely check-in this hotel again!

Whenever I visit Tokyo, I (nearly) always book this hotel because of kind staff, convenient location (It takes about 8 minutes from Shin-okubo station) with reasonable price. There is a family mart(CVS) near the hotel where you can buy some simple groceries. Please kindly note that when it is over 10pm, the main door to the front gets to be locked so you need to open the door by using your room's card key. I'd definetely book this hotel again in near future when visiting Tokyo. :-)

From Haneda airport take train to Daimon transfer to Oedo line go to Tochomae transfer to opposite side get off at Higashi-Shinjuku exit at B2 left side few steps away and it is the door of the Hotel. Around 1hour travel time from Haneda. Across the hotel there is a Japanese fast-food open 24hrs. At a very reasonable price, where most of the locals also eat. They have microwave to heat your own food. Clean your own messed. No bringing your own food. Just walking distance to the shopping area of Shinjuku. Walking distance to Ninja Trick Museum and Samurai Museum. Rooms of the hotel usually very small. We got twin size bed much bigger than the double size bed room. We arrived in the hotel at night and it was raining, good thing the hotel main entrance is only few steps away from the train station.

I'm very enjoy stayed at Hyatt, the staff member are friendly and always give me quick response. The concierge staff are very helpfull to guide me and give me direction to the place I want to visit and they even call the shop I want to visit to make sure if they open on that day because on first January some off shop and mall are closed for holiday. The room it's very comfortable and clean, the bed also comfortable too. The food it's exellent, we can choose for 3 restaurant to have a breakfast. And this hotel provide a shuttle bus for compliment every 30 minute until 9.40 pm to and from Shinjuku station. For all...this hotel is very best hotel with the good service from all staff, my children very enjoyed stay at this hotel. The hotel price is very worth it with all the service and the luxury.

I really loved this place. I chose this hotel after a horrible experience on airbnb. I booked this hotel instantly on Agoda. THANK GOD for Agoda. When I got to the hotel the staff barely spoke English but they did their best to accomodate and communicate which to me is the only thing that matters. Room was tiny but clean. It was good for 1 person. TV was big, airconditioning is amazing, food was substandard but it was cheap at 1,000 ¥. With all the 24 hour convenience stores around it really was so easy to eat and grab essentials really quick. Love this hotel and I WILL Stay here again during my Winter Trip to Tokyo ;-)

This is my 2nd time at this property, I chose it for it's great location and familiarity of the area so I could hit the ground running. Hotel is a basic business hotel but delivers as promised. Rooms are small, but that's all well described and use the space in the best manner possible. Looking for a quiet, clean, conveinant place to rest your head then this is perfect. It's close enough to walk to everything in Shinjuku but just far enough away to be quieter. A few blocks from a tokyo subway stop as well. My only complaint is the same others have posted in that they have some really thin pillows. I knew this going in so used my travel pillow to supplement. I should have asked for extras from the desk and when I stay her again I will make sure to do that.

Very good location: just 3 mins walk from Mejiro station (1 sta. away from Ikebukuro & 3 sta. away from Shinjuku). There are Family Mart, drug store and restaurants nearby. Check-in/ out process is fast and simple. Hotel staffs are very courteous and helpful, they speak simple English and trying their best to communicate with us. The room is clean, and spacious by Japanese standard. Laundromat available, and we may check the machine availability/ completion time from the TV in our room. Would be great if they provide bottled drinking water or water dispenser.

First of all, you need to know the room is indeed small (16 sqm) which is the same for all hotels in Tokyo for this price. If you are very very tall like 180cm then you might find standing in the bath room a bit problematic. However, putting that aside, the amenities are more than complete. The wifi with protected password are extremely strong (25mbps). There's mini bath tub, free evian drinking water, toiler with remote controlled bidet, very tidy and clean room, free mila schon shampoo, conditioner and body was gel on top of the provided shampoo, rinse and body wash, free toothbrush, shave, facial wash, clothes deodorant, bubble was ball, hair brush, free ice at 8th floor machine, free green tea, etc. Just put the house keeping sign outside the door and the room will be clean as new and everything used will be replenish except the mila schon stuffs unless the see nth left then they will replenish. The staffs can speak moderate english and one male staff can speak very well chinese. You can buy the 500 yen (worth 600 yen) voucher from the hotel to be used at the Tully's coffee downstairs. The Tully's Coffee pumpkin latte is a must try! Everything is nice! Next to it is also the Lawson store sth like 7-Eleven. The hotel will recommend cheap and good food to you and be very honest about all the tourist spots if you ask them. Hospital, restaurants, shopping complex, drug store and supermarket is just within 3-10 mins walking distance. There's the Don Quixote supermarket that sells almost anything at cheap price near the Korean Town that occasionally will have debuting Korean Star promoting themselves offering free signatures and photographs. The staffs are helpful and nice to offer any assistance you ask. They even have a weight scale for your luggage to make sure you don't go overweight for your flight! Awesome! The hotel is just next to higashi-shinjuku subway station. It is quite far from the red light district area. This area is for shopping, not for sightseeing.

I loved my hotel room. I was on the 14th floor (top floor) on a corner room so it was very quiet. The curtains blocked out the bright sunlight. The room was very clean. The staff spoke English and very friendly and helpful. The location was excellent because it was only a 2 minute walk to the nearest subway station. There are lots of convenience stores nearby such as Family Mart, 7 Eleven, and Lawsons where I can buy cheap fresh fruits, hot food, sandwiches, drinks, etc. There are many restaurants nearby. The big shopping areas are only one stop from the nearest subway station. All the major tourist attractions can be accessed by subway from the nearest subway station. I would book this hotel again if I visit Tokyo again. I highly recommend this hotel.

Whilst reading past reviews we were unsure how this hotel was going to turn out, to our surprise the hotel was clean, comfortable, spacious, the staff are extra friendly and try their best to speak English to you. The hotel is situated 200 metres from the subway stop which is 2 stops from Shinjuku main station, and tokyos subways are pretty good, make sure to download the Tokyo metro app. There is a 7/11 shop about 50 metres away and several restaurants. We found the wifi in our room to be decent despite reading some reviews stating they could only get it in the lobby, however we were situated on the 2nd floor. The hotel is nice and quiet, the only negative I have was that the hotel did have a slight cigarette smell, however they do provide air freshener. Overall we were very satisfied and enjoyed our stay.

Tokyo is a city that never sleeps. Whether you have chosen hotel Ibis for food, shopping, accessibility to its highly complex train networks (grab a map wherever u go!) or simply watching the city culture and its bustling way of life, this is the place to be. On the upside, u can still enjoy walking around or indulge in having supper either at the 24-hr McDonald's (or delicious ramen shop located opposite the main kabuki-cho street). Its location is a major draw factor. Shinjuku train station is just a short walk away so if your plan is to travel to places like Gotemba factory outlet or other cities at some point. On the downside, the room was very small so best to check-in with little or no expectation at all. I think it suits best either for sole travelers or at the most couples without kids. Wifi was a little slow in the last 2 days. Hotel staff was helpful but could put on a smile a little more. Overall good value for money.
