“The best alternative to Hotel”

Oakwood Apartments Shinjuku

4 of 5 stars
Cambridge, United Kingdom

5/5 found this review helpful

I used to live in Tokyo so I didn't really want to stay in a hotel now that I was going back as a tourist.
I came accross this aparment from reading review on Trip Advisor.
You can book it through some online travel sites but if you contact Oakwood directly you can get a cheaper rate.

The place was easier to find and closer to Shinjuku station than first thought. It is an impecable , modern block of apartments mostly for foreign business man and there family, so you are expected to behave corretly.

The staff speak excelent english. There is a nice lounge, one with sofas, the other looks more like a cafe with 2 PCs hooked up to the internet. There is also a Gym with a Sento and even a music room! Let's not forget the piano bar on the top floor.

The apartment was small but ultra-modern. You can fill your bath remotely just by the touch of a botton. The bath has also a self dry option and can dry your wet clothes too.

There is all you need, equipped kitchen, big flat screen, all very modern. Just not much room to move.

Finally, our room was overlooking both shinjuku and okubo station so you a constant background noise that stops only for a couple of hours at night. That's Tokyo for you!

Great place if you are traveling alone ! Specially for business.

“Best Deal in Town, No Doubt!”

Oakwood Apartments Shinjuku

5 of 5 stars
Altus, Oklahoma

7/7 found this review helpful

This has to be the best deal in Tokyo. We paid about 115 Yen per night, that's including tax. That's nothing compared to any other hotel that is close to the action like the Oakwood apartment is.

Only a short walk to the Shinjuku train, subway, and bus station. The hotel is right near all the action, with tons of restaurants and convenience stores closeby.

The room is small, but very functional and nice. We never used the kitchen, but the washer dryer combo was great. The gym was excellent.

The front desk folks also are very helpful. It's nice that they speak fluent English, since most locals don't. Proved very helpful when sightseeing around Tokyo.

Everything you read about this is true. My wife and I plan to stay here again on our next visit.

“A great place to stay!”

Oakwood Apartments Shinjuku

5 of 5 stars
Melbourne, Australia
May 8, 2008
7/7 found this review helpful

Stayed at this property for 8 nights in late March-early April in a 2-bedroom apartment and was really impressed. For far less than we could have paid for a deluxe hotel room, we had a large apartment with a full-size living/dining area, large bedroom, kitchen and amazing bathroom! The second bedroom was compact and there was no second bathroom.

All the fittings were new, three TV’s (although we had a bit of trouble with the multiple remotes!), heated floors, etc etc which you also get in the studios – but the best thing was the space!
Check-in and out was easy and the staff were always friendly, polite and helpful. The skylounge is nice, so is the library area, and it was great having free internet access at two terminals in the basement lounge area.

The apartments are in a convenient location, close to Shinjuku and other metro and JR stations. Shinjuku station is about 15 mins away – it’s not a long walk but you have to negotiate a couple of busy intersections.

It’s also close to department stores, convenience stores and a vast array of dining choices.
One downside which has been mentioned by others is the train lines – it can get a bit noisy, even at night. Also, not many taxi drivers seemed to know it, so it made for some interesting
trips :-) Given the popularity of the place, it would also be great if the airport bus made a stop there.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Oakwood and would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending the place to others or staying there again. It’s worth trying for a 1 or 2 bedroom apartment just for the extra space.

“great apartment”

Oakwood Apartments Shinjuku

5 of 5 stars

7/7 found this review helpful

We stayed in Oakwood apartments in April 2008 for 6 nights and it was perfect! We had a studio (for 2) that was rather small (but this is Tokyo!) but it was so well organized and equipped that we enjoyed our stay every minute. Very modern and clean bathroom, very comfortable bed, nice big fla tv, electronic devices, etc, etc. Plus we had the internet connection in the room for a low price. View from the balcony was superb. We also appreciated the lounge in 32nd floor (open to residents). We didn't try the fitness.

We will stay in Oakwood again next time for sure.
