Hotels near Ikebukuro Station

"Breakfast is 10/10. We loved it. Carpet in the rooms smells but overall great location!"

"The property was in a very busy part of town, think Times Square if you're familiar with NYC. Lots to do and see around the hotel but a bit crazy. The hotel itself was nice. I enjoyed their lounge area but was disappointed to find we could not go out on the Godzilla deck. For some reason it was closed. Still, the staff was friendly and the lounge offered a nice place to meet up with our other travelers. The room was small but adequate with a cool view of the city at night. Like other hotels we stayed in, they didn't offer room cleaning unless requested and then its a full removal of all sheets and towels. I wish they would offer someone to just come in and make the bed, as someone who always has to do that, I expect when I'm paying for a room that it will be done."

"Very friendly staff and clean facilities"

"Clean room and amazing restaurant staff xx"

"The hotel reception is located in the mall building, 3rd floor. It’s honestly great because there’s a Lawson and family mart within the building opened 24/7. You can even walked Shinjuku station completely underground!! There’s also a bunch of restaurants in the hotel if you want a convenient option. This hotel is extremely walkable to Shinjuku and easy to hop on the bus to Harajuku or Shibuya (20 min bus ride). The room was small but manageable if this is your first location you’re exploring. Definitely get a bigger room if you feel like you need the space to place all your shopping finds. The hotel staff are so friendly and welcoming!"

"I was pleasantly surprised by the accommodations for the price. The check-in was smooth and efficient. Staff was very nice and spoke sine English. The room was clean. The breakfast buffet was decent. Nice variety of dishes to select from. The hotel was close to nearby attractions. I will stay here again. ☺️"

"Ok. Bedroom was ok. Not impressive. "

"Stayed at the APA Hotel Shinjuku Kabukicho Tower and honestly had a great experience overall. Yes, the rooms and bathrooms are SMALL. Probably even smaller than you’re expecting no matter how many reviews you read saying “the rooms are tiny.” But realistically, other than sleeping, we barely spent any time in the room anyways because we were out exploring Tokyo all day and night. The beds were surprisingly comfy and we had great sleeps every night. The AC also worked perfectly, which was a lifesaver after long days walking around Tokyo. The hotel itself (lobby / common areas / rooms) were absolutely clean and totally fine for what we needed. Front desk staff and security were always friendly and helpful as well. The biggest selling point here is LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION. If you want to stay right in the heart of Shinjuku and be walking distance to restaurants, bars, nightlife, transit, shopping, and everything happening in Tokyo, this location is incredible. 711 / Family Mart / Starbucks right outside the door. Only downside for me personally (and honestly not the hotel’s fault, more of a cultural thing in Japan) was the onsen tattoo policy. Tattoos either needed to be covered, with a max of 2 cover patches allowed, or no entry. Sadly I have a few tattoos so I wasn’t able to use the onsen. Just something to be aware of if you’re tattooed and want to use the service. Would I stay here again? Absolutely. No issues at all."
