Anshin Oyado Shinjuku Ekimae

This was my first time staying in a capsule that isn’t a semi-private type. The capsule area was fairly quiet—there was some snoring, but overall I could relax comfortably.More than that, in these times of rising prices, unlimited rice refills is incredibly generous. The staff said the rice is imported, but it had no unpleasant smell and tasted great.At night, you can enjoy one free bowl of late-night soba, and you can have up to five drinks from several types of alcohol. In the morning, you can have curry with chunky vegetables or risotto—an absolutely happy way to start the day.In the large public bath, several kinds of shampoo, conditioner, body soap, and treatments are available to use freely—truly full-service for a capsule Hotel.The front desk staff were foreigners, but they were fluent in both Japanese and English and were all very polite and pleasant.It’s in a great location within about a 5-minute walk from Shinjuku Station. More than half of the guests were international travelers, but I had no issues during my stay.It was such a comfortable Hotel that I’d like to stay here again when I’m in Tokyo.

I stayed here after an event.Even though it’s a capsule Hotel, it has a large public bath, which made it super comfortable.At night, free alcohol and ramen were a nice touch.There are no meals included, but you can also have free curry and miso soup!!The toilets and washbasins are shared, but they’re clean.Business hotels keep getting more expensive these days, so this is great value for money. I’d like to stay again.
