Hotel Gracery Shinjuku is an enormous mid-range tower hotel set in the heart of Tokyo's busy Shinjuku neighborhood. With 970 rooms, it's massive, though the hotel doesn't offer too much in terms of features. Still, for an affordable Tokyo hotel, it's a solid choice, and there are an Italian restaurant and a pleasant cafe with a terrace. There's even a giant Godzilla statue on the terrace! Rooms are small and bland in terms of decor, but they're clean and offer a great set of amenities, including flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and electric kettles. Other conveniences include a laundry room and free Wi-Fi throughout the property. Overall, it's a good value for those looking to be near Shinjuku Station, but there are lots of similar options nearby, such as Shinjuku Prince Hotel, so travelers should compare rates.

The Shinagawa Prince Hotel Tokyo is a huge mid-range hotel complex offering 3,679 guest rooms spread over four high-rise towers. Rooms here are functional and comfortable and are equipped with mini-fridges and electric kettles, though some show signs of wear and tear. The hotel's complex includes two swimming pools, 13 food and beverage outlets, tennis courts, a shopping mall, cinema, bowling alley, and even an aquarium. Its location opposite Shinagawa train station, a five-minute walk away, makes it a convenient base for leisure and business travelers. But room rates here tend to run more expensive than hotels of a similar category in the same area; for example, Keikyu EX Inn Shinagawa Ekimae offers better value, with bigger guest rooms.

Modern and functional, the upper-middle-range Tokyu Stay Shinjuku attracts mostly business travelers with its apartment-like accommodations. But its location -- situated in one of Tokyo’s liveliest neighborhoods, near the busiest train station in the world -- is just as appealing to tourists. The 179 rooms here are larger than others in the city, and exceptionally well-appointed, with washer/dryers, air purifiers, and free Wi-Fi. However, while a prime location and bigger rooms are serious pros, the property's downside is the scant offering of other on-site features: There’s no pool, gym, bar, or even a restaurant. Housekeeping services are also limited depending on the length of stay. Travelers looking for a wider range of features might prefer the equally central Shinjuku Granbell Hotel.
