Contrary to some reviews i read before arriving at Galois, this hotel was great! Staff was always present and willing to help with any requests or mishaps. The room had some dust but was CLEAN and had an air purifier which was amazing for my allergies. There was absolutely no strange smell through out my stay (neither in my room or lobby area). Amenities were accessible without interruption! Would definitely stay again!

Lovely hotel in Shin-Okubo, perfectly placed between the two major subway lines. Loved their onsen, it was small and intimate. I booked a two single bed room. The room itself was small and did not have room to open luggage if you had two people. Thankfully I booked this room as a solo traveller and ended up using the other bed to hold my lugagge. Would definitely book this hotel again as a solo traveller.

The room was larger than the average Japanese hotel room. We could actually lay our suitcases open on the floor.

Located a very short walk from Shin Okubo station. This station is on the new line which does a circuit of the main Tokyo area. Other stations available were a longer walk away for other train lines.

It was central and nearby were drug stores, a Donki, many restaurants (including Korea town just a block away), and a 7/11.

Signs were available for if you want your room cleaned or not. Towels were provided daily even if you do not have your room cleaned.

The hotel overall was clean and fresh.

Excellent location right near the train station and walkable distance to Shinjuku.

The small hot tub/onsen was very nice! I used it everyday and really helped after a whole day of walking.

Staff are very nice and lots of extra goodies such as toothbrushes etc.

Rooms in Japan are very small unless you spend big bucks on hotels that offer bigger rooms. So don’t be shocked when your room is smaller than what your normally used too. I stayed in a hotel in Osaka and it was much smaller.

Convenient location!

Stayed here with my daughter for a week. The location is convenient, minutes away from the subway station. Although the room with small with 2 twin beds, the staff and location made up for it.

This property is excellent. The staff are always very helpful, it’s so close to the Yamanote Line station. It’s close enough you can walk or ride the train to Shinjuku but far enough that you don’t hear noises at night. There’s food options and stores close by, there’s laundry faculty, a public bath and the rooms have tatami mats. Enough space you can move without bumping. Theres breakfast in the morning. Check out is at a later time too!

This is a great value hotel hidden behind a restaurant in the Korean area of Tokyo. It felt safe and friendly and was much quieter than being in Shinjuku itself, yet was only a few hundred metres from a subway stop that let us access the whole city and surrounding area.

The rooms were compact but comfortable and well styled, looking recently decorated, with pristine bathroom facilities and a pleasant shower.

The breakfast was a set meal rather than a buffet prepared freshly on arrival by the chef. They were amenable to us being vegetarian and made us a variety of different types of eggs served with vegetables and potatoes, with salad, fruit, toast, cereal, yoghurt and a little cupcake in little side dishes.

Reception offered use of a microwave, as well as ice and coin operated washing machines and driers. There is also a small onsen for each gender. The ladies had a nice clean changing room with lockers and then a set of washing stations and a single hot pool about eight foot by six. Both times I used it I was the only person there and it felt very private and luxurious, but it would quickly feel crowded with a group. It has no natural light and you can hear the trains come and go in the background through the ventilation, but this didn’t spill a lovely experience.

Staff were kind but unobtrusive, and the place was meticulously cleaned and maintained. Security was good too (you needed a room key to use the lift beyond reception and could only access your own floor).

Fantastic location and great staff

I'm so glad we stayed at Galois hotel Shin-Okubo.

This hotel is in a fantastic location, a 2min walk from Shin-Okubo station, a 15min walk from the Godzilla head and 18mins from Omoide Yokocho. It's also in a quiet enough street that you can sleep peacefully. There's a 7eleven around the corner too which is really handy if you just want a snack or something.

The hotel has a public bath which was a life saver!! We walked pretty much everywhere we could, only taking the train for locations further out so being able to just relax in the public bath after a long day was simply perfect. One thing to note, it's not normal to wear a swimsuit or bikini when you go in. Luckily for me it was pretty quiet so I always had it to myself but just be prepared for this if you do decide to use it.

There are some free amenities too like toothbrush, face oil, hairbands etc. And a coffee/hot water machine in reception. You get free pjs, a fresh towel and a bottle of water every day.

The staff were super friendly and helpful too !!

The room is small but that is to be expected in Tokyo. The bed had a wall on 3 sides (we stayed in a double). There were 3 hangers and a desk in the room, a small bathroom with a small but deep bath/shower and a toilet. Despite being small, it was still very comfortable. My partner found the mattress a little too firm but it was perfect for me so it depends on your preference.

We loved our stay here. This was our first time visiting Japan, so we wanted to book somewhere central to the busy Tokyo areas. This hotel was perfect. It is steps away from Shin Okubo, which is only one stop away from Shinjuku, and has a 7-11 kitty corner to the hotel.

The hotel's amenities were also excellent, from complimentary toiletries and coffee to peaceful onsens that were free for guests. The staff were friendly, and the room layouts were terrific.

We will be back!

Way more space than we expected for Japan, and just what we needed for a nice place to sleep each evening.

My fiancée is quite tall so his knees touched the bathroom door while sitting on the toilet, but there’s not much to be done about that.

A very small room but it was perfect for our 1 night stay prior to leaving Japan. The onsen was, of course, perfection! Staff was lovely and helpful at storing our luggage prior to check in and helping us call a taxi to get to Haneda airport. Bedroom was clean and neat, and bed was super comfy after an exhausting final day in Japan. We really enjoyed our stay and would come back!

The staff were friendly and the room had everything we needed with fresh towels and water bottles delivered to our door each morning. The coffee machine at reception was handy and we got to keep our slippers as a nice souvenir.

Amazing Stay In A Perfect Location

We had a fantastic experience staying here! The hotel is incredibly clean, and the shower was a highlight—great water pressure and very refreshing. The location is unbeatable, just a 2-minute walk to the station, which connects you to all the key stops on the Yamanote Line. The staff were also very welcoming and made us feel right at home.

As expected for Tokyo, the room isn’t very big, but it’s well-designed to make the most of the space. The bed was a little firm, and it took some time to adjust, but it didn’t detract much from our overall comfort.

Highly recommend this hotel for its cleanliness, convenience, and friendly service!

Our stay in Galois was brief but memorable. It was a good place to rest after traveling all over Japan and well within walking distance of main city Shinjuku. Our room was clean and they provided so many amenities (even things we didn’t even think of). What was especially great was that you can store your luggage even after you check-out which was real helpful for our last day. Appreciate everything!

Cramped Rooms in a Dingy Neighborhood

The hotel was as advertised, but I think we were just hoping for a bit more space. It served its purposes, but was too cramped to be relaxing. Shin-Okubo also has a bit seedier feel and we would not choose to stay in this neighborhood again.

PROs:
Super close to the subway line
Lots of cute amenities like hair ties and toothbrushes
Clean rooms
Easy check-in/check-out

CONS:
Window looks out to a brick wall
Cramped rooms (but again, not necessarily unknown or unexpected)
Dirty neighborhood (was surprised to see some litter on the streets in Shin-Okubo)

Perfect for tourists

Very nice clean modern room and I LOVED the location. This was my first time in Tokyo and I found the immediate area around the hotel super cool. And being so close to the Yamanote line is perfect for exploring the city easily. A small station so you can catch a train very quickly and it's pretty impossible to get lost. I stayed out late each night for food in other areas but there's a tonne of options by the hotel. The hotel resteraunt itself seems very nice but I didn't have the chance to try it.
