As frequent visitors to Japan, we have been guests at Hotel Tateshina several times a year over the last ten years. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean, a bit outdated but altogether quite comfortable. The location could not be better: direct trains form Narita Airport; 10 to 15 minutes' walk from Shinjuku Station and subway...

- is what Hotel Tateshina has become to me. Maybe because I am on my way to stay there once again (my 8'th time at Hotel Tateshina) for little over a week on my biannual vacation in Japan. Friendly and helpfull english speaking staff that always go the extra length to print out a map of a location that I... More

Basic, business style hotel. A little bit dated and very basic, but for me a great location - across the road from nichome and close enough to the main Shinjuku station. Typical small room, moulded plastic bathroom and a quaint sound system. But a comfortable and clean bed, though the bathroom could have been given a little bit more attention.... More

This hotel is located right on the edge of Kabukicho in Shinjuku; super close to Shinjuku sanchome station and a reasonable walk to Shinjuku station. Location is great down a relatively quiet side street. The actual hotel itself is pretty dated looking; everything looks like it's from about 1981 or so and I somehow unfortunately ended up with a smoking... More

Nice place which location is the main value, 4' from shinjuku sanchome station (4 subway lines) and ~12' from shinjuku which has subways and JR trains. Nice reception that offered me a coffee, store the luggage, but their english is really low which is a great difficulty and you rapidly stop asking questions but only the basic ones... There is...

We stayed for one night in March 2012. It was very late when we arrived but the man on reception was very welcoming and helpful. He supplied us with city maps and umbrellas when we needed them during our stay. The room was small, which is typical of downtown Tokyo, but was very comfortable for sleeping, cosy and had every...

We lived there for 2 weeks when we were on a sightseeing trip to Japan. We thought that the location was good - 5 min walk to the nearest subway entrance (and then another 5 to get to the tracks undergournd), and 12-15 min walk to JR Shinjuku Station. Shinjuku is a good choice when it comes to getting around... More

After researching thoroughly online, we decided to select Tateshina for our Tokyo trip. And boy, it was definitely a good choice. The good service started way beyond our actual stay, where each email / inquiry was responded within 4-5 hours. Mr Nobuo was really helpful and patient in replying to my emails, despite the constant changes and amendments. Upon arrival,... More

I stayed there 5 nights overall (2 nights first, 3 nights later), overall everything was fine, the room was reasonably cheap and clean, although quite small (but it's shinjuku, if you want something big it's going to be fairly expensive). Also the location was quite perfect: just next to the crossing of yasukuni dori and meiji dori, the two big... More
