Sakura Hotel Hatagaya

It does the job. It's a good value for money considering it's around 3 kms from both shinjuku and shibuya by foot. If you enjoy walking, location is great. There are a few stations around 15 min walk max on top of the hatagaya one. The room was really clean and the cleaners did a great job everyday. It was really cheap compare to most hotels around so I consider it a very good value for money. Don't expect luxury and you will have a good time there. The staff is lovely. Rooms are small but it's expected.

This was the first of two stays at this hotel during my time in Japan recently, and I had stayed here before this as well. Was really cool to meet a fellow on reception who is from Melbourne, Australia where I live. A nice start to the trip! One great thing about this hotel that I haven't mentioned elsewhere is the distance from the train station is really close. Very handy when lugging bags or crawling home after a night out. If you are after a budget stay in a good location, this is the one!

I like that the cafe downstairs is 24 hours so if you get hungry in the night just go downstairs! There is also a family mart and lawson close by! Hatagaya station is also just a short walk away.

I liked the old school vibe of the hotel and a good price. Also a corner room had a proper amount of space despite column in the middle of the room. It's close to metro and shops so there is not more needed.

All the staff members were super nice, polite yet friendly. Very helpful as well. So close to the Hatagaya station, very convenient. The food at the restaurant was excellent.
