Great place near a lot of fun areas. Close to the bars and nightlife scene if that’s what you’re looking for. Staff is ok w/English speaking for most part. Rooms are small but so are most hotels in Japan, also no guests allowed past lobby area.

Our second time staying the APA Hotel. Walkable to the JR Shinjuku Station and it’s only 2 min. walk to the Tokyo Metro Marunouchi Line. Love the convenience of the location and the staff are super helpful. Highly recommend using the luggage delivery service to transport your luggages from airport To hotel and vice versa.

Onsen was clean and maintained well. No gym. Laundry takes time to dry (took us more than 1 hour with separated clothes) and many lints attach to clothes. Washers are detergent-free I believe using alkaline water, which I can attest works! Odor and grime gone. Rooms were sufficient but tight. Service and cleanliness were excellent! Checking in and out is a breeze. Also, on your check-out day, you can still leave your luggage in the hotel the whole day if you plan to travel around more. No wonder many recommend Apa for first time visitors.
