Room Features
Guest rooms at Hotel Rio Shinjuku are larger than standard Tokyo hotel rooms, with enough floor space to open two 24-inch suitcases at once. Each room has a work desk, air conditioning, and a television with streaming services. A microwave, hair straightener, and hair dryer are provided for guest use.
Bathroom Amenities
The private bathrooms include a large bathtub and a Japanese bidet toilet with warm water settings. The washbasin, toilet, and shower are separated into distinct areas for convenience. Toiletries such as toothbrushes, slippers, and pajamas are supplied in each room.
Location
The hotel is a 3-minute walk from Koizumi Yakumo Memorial Park and 400 meters from Meotogi Shrine. It sits directly opposite the Mega Don Quijote store in Shinjuku's Koreatown, with many Korean restaurants and shops nearby. Shin-okubo Station is within a 10-minute walk, and Shinjuku Station is about 15 minutes away.
Services
The 24-hour front desk offers luggage storage and lockers for guest belongings. Laundry service is available, and the hotel can arrange luggage transfer via Yamato Transport. Key card access and CCTV systems in common areas and outside the property provide security.
Facilities
A sun terrace with outdoor furniture is located on the property. The hotel has a lift, designated smoking areas, and non-smoking rooms throughout. A vending machine for drinks is available, and tea and coffee makers are in all rooms.

“Hotel Rio Shinjuku situates guests in a remarkably convenient Shinjuku locale, with its spacious rooms and comfortable beds offering a surprising level of amenity for the area. The inclusion of thoughtful extras and large Japanese-style bathing facilities contribute to a pleasant stay, despite its vibrant surroundings. Its proximity to transit and a 24-hour retailer makes it a practical base for exploring the city.”
