Top Shinjuku Golden Gai Hotel Reviews

Tokyo Bay Shiomi Prince Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay and experience. The Family Mart attached to the hotel was very convenient. The room was spacious and comfortable."

The Royal Park Hotel Tokyo Haneda Airport Terminal 3

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is perfect for a night’s rest while in transit. You do have to go through immigration and security to use it, but in the morning it’s so straight forward to leave from because it’s right beside one of the security entrances. The room provides everything you need so we always book our check in bags right through and simple take a change of clothes in our backpacks."

Shinjuku Washington Hotel Annex

10/10 Excellent

"great hotel to stay at, with a stop for the limousine bus from the airport right outside the front doors! breakfast was a little pricey, but the food made it totally worth it. lots of great food options downstairs in the mall, and then within a 5 minute walk of the hotel as well."
