A short walk to the subway and Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden. Lots of bars and restaurants close by. The property is quite dated and there was no escalator at the front entrance. Had to carry big suitcases up the stairs.

Small Rooms. Hourly rates

Posted 30 Dec 2023 on Hotels
Rooms are super super tiny. This is an hourly hotel in an unofficial red light district. There is activity going on until the early hours on all days of the week

Just ok property. Very noisy in the back of the building with lots of bars and people on the street. You hear it until past midnight.

I like the hotel and have stayed there many times over the years, under both new and previous ownership. The rooms are clean but small. If one is used to a smaller Japanese-style hotel, this is fine. The hotel is very close to the tunnel system connecting it to Shinjuku station and the Metro system in addition to restaurants and the park nearby.

Great location, near Shinjuku JR station and a subway stop. Clean and staff are friendly. There are stairs going up to the property so those with heavy bags may struggle the 10 steps but there is a lift inside.

I've stayed at this hotel many times before the change in name from when it was the Lonestar. Rooms are small and not for everyone, but I am comfortable here. Staff are friendly, and the location is convenient to the tunnel system to the JR Shinjuku station and the Tokyo subway Gyoenmae, 3-chome station.
