Great value for the price. The room was bigger than we expected of Tokyo; the staff were super helpful and friendly; check-in and checkout process was very smooth.

Very clean as well and easy check-in/-out. Only a bit small/narrow especially with the bed on the upper floor but that’s not uncommon in Tokyo. At times, the wi-fi is a bit patchy/unstable but nothing too bad. Highly recommend as an affordable option! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 28 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Pretty Okay Stay GLOU is located in the residential area away from Korean Town in Higashi Shinjuku. It is a 3-minute walk from exit B1 from the Fukutoshin Line (Tokyo Metro) and a 13-minute walk from the JR Shin-Okubo station. Check-in progress was straightforward, and our room was very spacious for a room in Tokyo. We stayed across from the main building, where reception and coin laundry are located. Some issue we had during our stay was the odor (the room smelled like feet-maybe because the room was carpeted and the ventilation was not amazing; I had to get room refresher spray day) and squeaky bed/bed frame. It would've been nice if there was a humidifier since the air does get air throughout the night. Overall a nice space where we can comfortably lay out all our luggage in the room; a good 12 min walk to Golden Gai/Kabuki-cho. 7-11/Lawson are within 2-3 blocks away. Located near busy streets with lots of Korean shops. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maxx 31 Mar 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great quiet location nearby shops and transit ##### Maxx Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Janelle 21 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Easy walkable area ##### Janelle Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel 24 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Wonderful stay!

Well located - 10-20min walk to most touristy things in Shinjuku, and 2 min walk to the subway for everything else. Tiny as everyone says. Open your suitcase & put it under the bed for some space. If you have carry on plus checked luggage, probably not the hotel for you. The bathroom is tight, but totally useable. ##### Kathryn Stayed 4 nights in May 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### zoraida 4 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was literally right next to a train station so you could get anywhere you wanted. food street and shopping around the corner. the staff (ken m) feel bad i don't remember girls names were so helpful. i literally bothered them day and night for directions and they would draw maps and call places to help make reservations. rooms were small but that's only cause i have huge suit cases. the showers had great pressure and hot water. ##### zoraida Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### fabio alessio 2 Mar 2026 ho prenotato 4 giorni prima per alloggiare in questo hotel, ##### fabio alessio Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2026 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [MONday Apart Hamamatsucho Daimon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Hotel-MONday-Apart-Daimon.h46384218.Hotel-Information) > - [YOTEL Tokyo Ginza](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-YOTEL-Tokyo-Ginza.h108002846.Hotel-Information) > - [Mitsui Garden Hotel Ginza Premier](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Mitsui-Garden-Hotel-Ginza-Premier.h25819.Hotel-Information) > - [ibis Styles Tokyo Ginza East](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Ibis-Styles-Tokyo-Ginza-East.h39599836.Hotel-Information) > - [Super Hotel Premier Tokyo Station Yaesu Chuo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Superhotel-Premier-Tokyo-Yaesu-Chuoguchi.h36481228.Hotel-Information) > - [APA Hotel Shibuya Dogenzakaue](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-APA-Hotel-Shibuya-Dogenzaka-Ue.h5426529.Hotel-Information) > - [Dormy Inn Premium Tokyo Kodenmacho Hot Spring](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Dormy-Inn-Premium-Tokyo-Kodenmacho-Hot-Spring.h15975668.Hotel-Information) > - [Haneda Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-HANEDA-INN.h22130895.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Kizankan](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Hotel-Kizankan.h4937696.Hotel-Information) > - [APA Hotel Higashi Nihombashi Ekimae](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-APA-Hotel-Higashi-Nihombashi-Ekimae.h8353788.Hotel-Information) > - [Tokyo Toyosu Manyo Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Tokyo-Toyosu-Manyo-Club.h104237309.Hotel-Information) > - [OMO5 Tokyo Otsuka by Hoshino Resorts](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Hoshino-Resorts-OMO5-Tokyo-Otsuka.h20577295.Hotel-Information) > - [Minn Ueno Shin-Okachimachi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Minn-Shinokachimachi.h93523613.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Crown Hills Ueno Premier](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Hotel-Life-Tree-Ueno.h36407860.Hotel-Information) > - [Ascott Marunouchi Tokyo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Ascott-Marunouchi-Tokyo.h17924225.Hotel-Information) > - [ICI HOTEL Tokyo Hatchobori](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-ICI-Hotel-Tokyo-Hachobori-By-RELIEF.h45771094.Hotel-Information) > - [Dormy Inn Premium Shibuya Jingumae Hot Spring](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Dormy-Inn-Premium-Shibuya-Jingumae-Hot-Spring.h5068211.Hotel-Information) > - [4♯ 6 minutes from Tokyo Disneyland / Tokyo Disney Sea / 24h supermarket nearby / wifi /](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-4-6-Minutes-From-Tokyo-Disneyland-Tokyo-Disney-Sea-24h-Supermarket-Nearby-Wifi.h49312875.Hotel-Information) > - [HOSHINOYA Tokyo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-HOSHINOYA-Tokyo.h16250945.Hotel-Information) > - [Agora Tokyo Ginza](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Agora-Ginza.h43822631.Hotel-Information) > - [ALFIT HOTEL & BAR AKASAKA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Hotel-REX.h35561762.Hotel-Information) > - [Dormy Inn Premium Ginza Hot Springs](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Dormy-Inn-Premium-Ginza-Hot-Springs.h68077600.Hotel-Information) > - [KAIKA TOKYO by THE SHARE HOTELS](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-THE-SHARE-HOTELS-KAIKA-Tokyo.h44129470.Hotel-Information) > - [Tokyo Disneyland Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Tokyo-Disneyland-Hotel.h13422450.Hotel-Information) > - [lyf Shibuya Tokyo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lyf-Shibuya-Tokyo.h106653982.Hotel-Information) > - [9h nine hours Akasaka](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Nine-Hours-Akasaka.h22799361.Hotel-Information) > - [APA Hotel PRIDE Akasaka Kokkaigijidomae](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-APA-HOTEL-PRIDE-KOKKAIGIJIDOMAE-National-Diet-Bldg.h32484812.Hotel-Information) > - [5 # Tokyo Disneyland 6 minutes / Tokyo Disney Sea / wifi / 24 hour supermarket nearby /](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-5-Tokyo-Disneyland-6-Minutes-Tokyo-Disney-Sea-Wifi-24-Hour-Supermarket-Nearby.h49312987.Hotel-Information) > - [The Royal Park Hotel Tokyo Haneda Airport Terminal 3](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-The-Royal-Park-Hotel-Tokyo-Haneda.h8080801.Hotel-Information) ---
