Detailed Reviews
I stayed at Via Inn for four nights. I found the hotel grounds to be very quiet which was a nice respite from the hustle and bustle of Shinjuku.
I stayed in a standard room, which was small but manageable for me as a solo traveler. I could see how it could be a little uncomfortable for two people with very large suitcases. A solo traveler with a large suitcase and carry on would be fine. Although the room is on the smaller side, it has everything you need. The hotel staff leave some basic toiletries for guest in case you forget them (toothbrush, comb, shampoo etc.). The toilet seat is heated and has a bidet. The room also has a humidifier.
I found the breakfast spread to be exceptional. The spread included a nice variety of options. If you wanted eggs and sausage, that was readily available, but breakfast options also included burdock rolls, kelp rolls, soup, porridge and other common Japanese food options. On my last day they offered natto.
I fond getting to the hotel from the metro station a bit challenging. Although it only takes about ten minutes to get to the hotel from the metro station, that walk can be a bit challenging if you have large suitcases. Consider getting a cab if you have a lot of luggage on hand.

Great hotel in a great location. Ideally situated for kabuckicko and golden gai area which are about 10 min walk.
It's easy to get to the hotel from Shinjuku station. Either a ten minute walk via the underground walkways - head for exit E1, the hotel is right by this exit. Another option is to get the metro to Shinjuku Sanchome station and it's about a 5 minute walk.
There is a Lawson's convenience store around the corner from the hotel.
We boooked a double room with small double bed. The room was small for two people, difficult to open two suitcases at once. The bed was a good size and could easily fit two people (standand UK double bed size).
The room has a compact bathroom with shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, towels and a hairdryer.
Free amenities (toothbrush, toothpaste, razors, etc) at reception.
Slippers and bathrobes are provided in the room.
The only negative point is that the room did not have a safety deposit box.
The staff were very friendly and helpful and spoke good English.
Breakfast is excellent, both English and Japanese (you can choose which one to have each day). There was also a small buffet section where you could help yourself. Juices and coffee also avaialable.
Self service laundry is available in the hotel for 500 yen.
We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely come back here but might try for a bigger room next time.

Excellent stay and great value for money. Rooms are very clean and bed is confy, and the staff, both at reception and breakfast (which is very yummy) are so lovely, professional and corteous. I asked to be allocated a room on a high floor and my request was kindly granted, which was very appreciated. Fantastic hotel only a min walk to Shinjuku Sanchome and 8 minutes to Main Shinjuku station East Entrance. Will definitely recommend. Many thanks for looking after me so well!

What a great place to stay as a starting point for a Japanese trip. The hotel is what I believe is called a "business hotel", in that it is designed for short stays so the rooms are smaller. That did not matter at all. This place was very good - from the extremely helpful staff (despite my poor attempts at speaking Japanese) - to it's handy location to easy access to transport and food options. The room was also so very clean and it had everything you would need as a solo traveller. It was quiet and the common areas were well maintained. Would definitely stay here again.

We stayed at the end of June 2024 for 7 nights in this hotel. The personnel is very friendly and the hotel is located in a quite part of Shinjuku. The train/metro station is just a walkable few blocks away. The room is ok for Japan standard and is clean. The only thing is that the buffet breakfast is not very western friendly. We would recommend this hotel

It was raining. We were at a supermarket near the hotel. There, we met by chance the receptionist of the hotel who helped us out with the check-in. I think she bought something for her dinner or so. We chatted a little and then we simply minded our own business. Everything was normal until...when we wanted to go back to the hotel, she lent me her umbrella (or maybe the hotel's umbrella) without hesitation, and she just went back to the hotel under the rain. I could see that she cared for us from her heart. This is what I call, an excellent service.
PS: The hotel is of course also very nice, close to the shopping area.
PSS: I rarely gave a five-star rating.

I stayed for 4 nights. A room is small...yup Tokyo size. Hotel is well maintained and clean. The location is very convenient especially for shopping since it is east side of Shinjuku station. The nearest station is Tokyo metro Shinjuku 3 chome station...about 3-4 min walk. Still, you can walk to JR Shinjuku station ...around 10-15 min. If you take a taxi, it would be 500-800 yen. There are lots of shops, restaurants and convenient stores near by. Marui Men's department store would be 3-4 min walk. Isetan (iconic department in Shinjuku) would be 5min. They provide basic breakfast..nothing fancy but i found that it was quite nice. I suppose no other hotels would provide breakfast in the price range in Shinjuku. I would stay again.

My partner and I stayed here for 5 nights in October 2013. While I was initially hesitant in booking this place due to its ranking on TripAdvisor, I came to realise that its lesser popularity is perhaps due to its lack of English online access.
(Note: For those who don't speak or read Japanese, you can email the hotel directly in English to make a reservation.)
Our semi-double room turned out to be small as commented previously by others, but it was extremely clean and has everything we needed. We requested for a higher floor at the time of booking and the hotel was able to accomodate at check-in - so a good city view was a bonus for us. On this note, the staff were always helpful.
The complimentary breakfast goes till 9:30am and although very limited in range, it was adequate to start the day.
Isetan and 0101 (massive department stores), as well as all other brands, are only minutes away by foot. The hotel is within 15 minutes walk to Shinjuku JR station and only 5 minutes to Shinjuku Sanchome Metro station. The proximity to all those train lines will make it easy for you to travel around Tokyo.

I took Skyliner to Uneo, and then caught Metro to Higashi Shinjuku. It took me 7-8 mins to reach the hotel from the metro station by foot. It is 2 mins away from SHINJUKU MARUI MEN, 2.5 mins from ISETAN, 10 mins from BICQLO, 13 mins from NeWoMan, 12 mins from Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden.... so an ideal place for walking around/shopping at Shinjuku. Lawson at the corner and 7-11 at the other side of the hotel.
Room size is bigger than I thought. The Room is basic but you got everything you need. I like the air purifier/humidifier very much. Breakfast is basic but you get what you pay for. I will definitely stay at this hotel again.

Hi traveller, I'm sorry I don't know as I didn't go to shopping malls in Tokyo. It is however near lots of shopping. Streets shops, a couple stations, I'm sure there are malls close by. In fact there is one on the corner although I have no idea what is in there.
Hope that helps.
