Experience of the stay
About a 15-minute walk from Shinjuku Station, surrounded by high-rise buildings, there was truly a hot spring ryokan!
At night, the entrance lights softly lit up, making me feel as though I was in a hot spring ryokan located in nature (*´-`)
When entering the inn, I could enjoy the Japanese aesthetic in detail, from the path to the front desk to the hallway and the door of the room.
Inside the room, there was a proper tatami-matted Japanese room with a bed.
The amenity box was a three-layered wooden box! It had a tea set prepared inside, allowing me to relax just like in a luxury ryokan.
Of course, soaking in the hot spring while enjoying the city's night view was exceptional!!
Experiences during the trip
This time was also a stay for work, so I would like to share my memories of enjoying the Shinjuku area in between.
That day was the day of the "Shinjuku Eisa Festival," which is held every year at the end of July on Shinjuku Avenue and other locations.
It seems that there are teams participating from Okinawa, the home of Eisa, and the music and dance were so powerful that I found myself stopping to watch, even while sweating!
At night, I returned to my accommodation early, enjoyed a leisurely hot spring experience, and savored Tokyo-exclusive beer while relishing the wonderful traditional atmosphere.
It was the perfect inn to rejuvenate my tired body amidst the hustle and bustle of Shinjuku!
The next day, I was drawn by a queue to "Brooklyn Parlor SHINJUKU," where I indulged in an elegant lunch.
Finally, I watched a trending movie at Shinjuku Wald 9, and that concluded my trip (´∀｀*)
