Bakit Ito Minamahal ng Mga Tao
The massive Godzilla head on the 8th-floor terrace (it roars at noon)
Unbeatable location in Kabukicho, steps from Golden Gai and endless food
High-floor rooms (starting on the 8th floor) that offer surprising quiet above the neon chaos
Mabilis na Sumisid: A clean, efficient tourist factory that trades room size for a killer location and a giant lizard head.
Sinuri ng @yisin0903: I stayed in the famous 'Godzilla Hotel' and the view was absolutely unreal. Watching the sunset over Shinjuku with the monster's head right outside my window was the highlight of my trip. The room is cozy, clean, and right in the middle of the action.
Sabi ng mga Nananatili Dito
The hype
Travelers love the separate toilet/bath layout and the novelty, but almost everyone complains about the tiny room size.
Reality check
One viral review from Feb 2024 alleged bed bugs, though the vast majority of recent 2025 reviews cite 'immaculate' cleanliness.
You are a first-time visitor who wants to be in the center of the action
You appreciate a Japanese-style deep soaking tub separate from the toilet
You plan to spend 16 hours a day exploring and just need a clean crash pad

FAQ & Mga Nakatagong Tip
Lahat ng kailangan mong malaman bago ka magbook.
Can I go out on the terrace to see Godzilla?
Currently, access to the terrace is suspended, but you can see the head through the lobby windows or book a specific 'Godzilla View' room.
Is the area safe at night?
Yes, but it's gritty. Kabukicho is the red-light district; you will see touts and drunk salarymen, but they generally ignore tourists who keep walking.
Does the hotel have a gym?
No. There is no fitness center on-site. Runners usually head to Shinjuku Gyoen or Yoyogi Park.
How small are the rooms really?
Tiny. A standard single is ~18 sqm (193 sq ft). You will likely have to close your suitcase to walk to the bathroom.
Is breakfast included?
Usually not, unless booked in a package. It's served at 'SAKURA' (Italian/Japanese buffet) or 'Sizzler' (salad bar) on the lower floors.
Can I store luggage before check-in?
Yes, the bell desk on the 8th floor will hold bags for free before check-in and after check-out.
