Top hotels in Sakura Ward

Hotel Gracery Shinjuku
Great location. Rooms are smaller which is typical in Asia, but nicely appointed. The lounge/bar is modern and interesting cocktails, but it closes too early. The staff enter the room to delivery fresh towels even if you’re in the room which felt strange. The staff are very respectful and friendly. ...

Shinjuku Washington Hotel Main
Room was clean but small. A semi double is definitely only (just!) big enough for one person. Hotel is very large and has good amenities. Breakfast is extremely good with lots to choose from. It can be busy, but the line moves quickly. It takes about 10 minutes to walk briskly to Shinjuku station. ...

Hotel staff were excellent and efficient. The room had enough chairs so that you do not need to sit on your bed.

Hotel Villa Fontaine Grand Tokyo-ariake
I book two rooms. When we checked in by automated machine. Our rooms were not next to each other. Also, I would like to see a complimentary coffee or tea station in lobby. Places don’t open early in Japan.
