Best Hotel
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Best Hotel is worth booking if your priority is the lowest price among our three Tokyo picks and you can live with a basic 2-star stay. If you want confirmed details on rooms, breakfast or guest opinions, or a short walk to the big sights, look at our other two picks first.

This is our Budget pick for Tokyo. It is a 2-star property in Shinjuku Ward with a guest score of 8.1 out of 10 from 476 reviews. That is a solid score for the price, but it was the lowest score among the 16 eligible hotels we compared.
It suits couples or friends who mainly need a clean, cheap base and plan to spend their days out. Families may find it workable, as the property lists family rooms.
Skip it if you want a hotel with a restaurant, spa or gym. None of those are listed here. Skip it too if you want to walk to the classic sights, because they are all far away.
Location and getting around
The address is Shinjuku-ku, Hyakunincho 1-2-3, in Shinjuku Ward. Walking times below are straight-line estimates and have not been verified on the ground.
Yasukuni Shrine is 3.8 km away, about 48 minutes on foot. Tokyo Imperial Palace is 5 km, around 63 minutes. Tokyo National Museum is 7.1 km, roughly 89 minutes. All three are far, so plan on public transport or a taxi for sightseeing.
We have no location score for this hotel, so check a map for the nearest station and the walk to it before you book.
What guests say
The 8.1 score comes from 476 guest reviews. Our data does not include a summary of what guests liked or disliked, so we cannot tell you whether people praise the beds, the staff or the quiet.
Read a handful of recent reviews yourself and look for comments on room size and noise, two things that often matter at this price level.
Price and what you get, compared with our other two picks
The reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 was €79.81 per night for 2 adults in one room. That is 71% below the sample median of €277.36. It is not a live quote, so check today's price for your dates.
For comparison, our Best Value pick, Onyado Nono Asakusa Annex - Natural Hot Spring (4 stars, 9.3), was seen at €332.77 per night. Our Luxury pick, Hotel Chinzanso Tokyo (5 stars, 9.4), was seen at €452.62. Best Hotel costs roughly a quarter of the Best Value option.
What you get for that is limited but clear: free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a 24-hour front desk and family rooms. Breakfast is not confirmed.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 16 eligible Tokyo properties. After reserving the upscale choice, Best Hotel had the lowest eligible reference price, which is how our Budget slot works.
The trade is plain. You pay far less than the median, and in return you get the lowest guest score in the sample and a basic 2-star product.
Before you book
Room size, noise, renovation condition, breakfast inclusion and cancellation terms have not been assessed. Check each one on the booking page.
Confirm whether breakfast is offered at all, what the cancellation deadline is, and how far the nearest station is. Facility availability and any fees should also be checked for your dates.
