Hotel Blue Empire in Shinjuku

星評価は宿泊施設情報（サービス・設備など）に対するKlookの総括であり、あくまでも参考用です。

The room appeared clean and I liked the white sheets. I liked that our family room had two bathrooms. There were complimentary umbrellas downstairs to keep us dry in the rain. The neighbors were quiet. We liked the alley ways with restaurants and the local Family Mart that was in our area. There was a Don Quijote store within walking distance of us, coffee shops, and good eats like a quaint hole in wall fresh soup dumplings place. Too bad there was a mound of trash next to this property in the alley that never got picked up in two days we were there. The laundry machine in the property worked but it did not have heat to dry clothes thoroughly so we had to walk to a laundry mat to dry our clothes using a machine that utilized heat. Overall, our stay was comfortable.

We booked a 4-night stay here just before Christmas 2025. Just to be clear: this is not a hotel, but an AirBnB style of accommodation. The AC/heater was almost ready to retire, lots of dust on the weird green curtains, kinda dirty decorative pillows/blankets (the brown ones), dirty laundry machine, and it seems that someone actually lives here as there was a name on the front door. During our last night, we actually had a notice to vacate the premises as they were supposedly doing something illegal in regards to licensing. The only good thing about this place was the location as it was very central. In short, we wouldn't book here again.

room is really tiny. Convenient place that is close to the train station.

Nice and clean

Clean room, nice staff, good location.

My fella and I felt like giants in the room. He’s six feet tall and I’m five nine. There was a loft in the room that we didn’t have access to according to notes saying that they’d know if the ladder was used and we’d be charged a bunch of money if it was found that we touched it. It was a full on key for the room door instead of a card that was fun at first but later became annoying because it’s pretty bulky. The part of town was a bit rundown. I was uncomfortable walking around alone at night. All that being said, it was cheap and close to two train stations which was great. However, in hindsight I think I would have been happier spending another $100+ staying somewhere I wasn’t constantly hitting my head on things and to have a bathroom that was big enough to pull my pants up in instead of having to open the door and step out into the room to do it. We got what we paid for and it was fine for the three nights we were there but I won’t be staying there the next time I’m in Tokyo.

Perfect for what we wanted. Minimalistic. Clean. Close to two train stations and other convenient shops. Great value for price.

Very simple clean small hotel with basic amenities. Located in a lively and fun area. Manager permitted us to leave our bags earlier in the morning and return to check in. Larger than a capsule hotel but no extra space to sit or hang out. Just a place to sleep. Perfectly functional.

Comfy beds unfortunately rooms were dirty with mosquitoes

Quick, easy check-in and excellent location. Lovely staff and wonderful experience.
