Strange odour in the room the first few nights. The bathroom Mirrow was lower than other APA hotels, I’m only 174cms and had to squat significantly to see into the mirror. Also couldn’t get any natural light into the room. There is a window but a wall on the other side of it.

Thank you very much for staying at APA Hotel〈SHINJUKU-GYOEMMAE〉 from among many hotels.Our hotel is inevitably facing a building, so basically there is no view of the city.Please understand this in advance.We also ask for your understanding that we only have the existing items available for installation.Thank you very much for your valuable feedback.

Great location. Exit the hotel, turn left, walk for 1 minute and you begin seeing the neon lights, walk 7 minutes and you reach the famous screen with the 3D cats. Turn right to enter Kabukicho. Is a nice hotel but every thing is of a miniature size. If you can put up being cramped in the bathroom and room itself then this hotel works. Lots of food options around. Subway station 100 yards from hotel. 10 minute easy walk from Shinjuku station.

Typical Japanese Hotel with great staff, breakfast, and usual accommodations (bed, hair dryer, shower) but smaller for those who are used to Western style hotels. Be ready for a compact experience. The pricing was great and the location was super central for shopping, train/metro stations, and sightseeing.
