Experience of the stay
The hostel is about a 5-minute walk from Shinjuku Sanchome Station.
Depending on the exit and line, it may take a little longer from the ticket gate, so it seems wise to allow extra time for travel.
The reception area doubles as a café & bar, so you can have breakfast or a drink before sleep 🍻
The café has a free water server!
Since it gets dry in winter, having free water was very helpful 🙏🏼✨
Something that felt unusual for a dormitory was that there was a bath with a tub.
Personally, I found it better than a shower booth in terms of space.
*There are several shower booths and one bath in the women's floor.
By the way, towels and pajamas are available for an extra charge, which I paid during check-in at reception.
If I remember correctly, the bath towel was 200 yen and the towel was 400 yen...
Most of the guests staying on the same day were from overseas.
You can experience the feeling of being abroad while being in Japan 😊
I didn't use it this time, but it seems the luggage storage space before and after check-in is paid.
Experiences during the trip
The purpose of this stay was to attend "HIKARU UTADA LIVE CHRONICLES in CINEMA" showing at Shinjuku Piccadilly!
Since the screening was at 9:00 AM, I stayed here the night before.
I was able to enjoy six live shows at New Piccadilly with booming sound, which felt like experiencing the satisfaction and fulfillment of attending six concerts!!
It was great that it was close to the hostel, allowing me to relax in the morning.
I missed last year's concert due to a lottery draw, but they were selling live merchandise in the theater, and I couldn't help but buy some 😊
