Standard Double with Loft, 12th Floor

It is a compact, individually furnished room of 161 sq. ft. on the 12th floor, with city-facing views. It has one bedroom, a desk and laptop workspace, and a private bathroom. The hotel is known for uniquely designed rooms by Japanese and international creators, and every room has a Simmons bed.

The room has 1 Double Bed with premium bedding and a down comforter, and it sleeps 2 guests. That makes it a natural fit for a couple or two travellers who are happy sharing a bed.

At 161 sq. ft. it is cosy, and standard rooms at the hotel are described by independent reviewers as small. For a longer visit it still has a desk and laptop workspace, daily housekeeping, a refrigerator, an electric kettle and a coffee/tea maker. A coin laundry on the 2nd floor also helps on longer trips.

The private bathroom has a shower/bathtub combination and a bidet. It also has designer toiletries, a hair dryer and slippers. Towels are changed on request.

There is no minibar. The room does have a refrigerator and free bottled water, plus a coffee/tea maker and electric kettle. For drinks and snacks you can go to the hotel's own venues: the 1st-floor live cafe G, the 12th-floor restaurant G and the 13th-floor roof top bar & terrace G.

Breakfast is not included in the standard room rate and is offered at an extra charge. Restaurant G on the 12th floor serves a Japanese and Western buffet breakfast with over 30 items. It serves casual French and Italian cuisine at other times, in a glass-enclosed room overlooking Shinjuku. On the ground floor, live cafe G is open 7:00–20:00 with espresso coffee, draft beer and food. The roof top bar & terrace G on the 13th floor has night views and light snacks.

Check-in starts at 15:00 and is available until 01:00. Check-out is by 11:00. The front desk is staffed 24 hours. The guest checking in must be at least 18 and should bring government-issued photo ID. A card or cash deposit for incidentals may be requested.

The hotel is at 2-14-5 Kabukicho, about a 4-minute walk from Higashi-Shinjuku Station (Fukutoshin and Oedo lines). Shinjuku Station is roughly a 15-minute walk through Kabukicho. From Haneda, an Airport Limousine Bus reaches Busta Shinjuku in about 35 minutes. From Narita, the Narita Express takes about 60 minutes to Shinjuku Station.

The hotel sits in the heart of the Kabukicho entertainment district, so expect a lively neighbourhood. Golden Gai is about 5 minutes on foot, the Samurai Museum a 4-minute walk, and Omoide Yokocho around 10 minutes. The hotel has no pool, spa or fitness centre. A massage service is available for an additional charge, and the Thermae-Yu onsen is about 240 m away.

Free Wi-Fi runs throughout the hotel, including in the room, at reported speeds of 25+ Mbps. On-site parking costs JPY 2,000 per day and must be reserved in advance. Pets are not allowed, and the hotel is fully non-smoking with a designated smoking area.
