About

Hotel Groove Shinjuku, A Parkroyal Hotel

Hotel Groove Shinjuku, A Parkroyal Hotel sits in the heart of Kabukicho, Tokyo's neon-lit entertainment district. The 568-room property occupies upper floors of a skyscraper, which means most rooms come with dramatic views over the city — and on clear days, some guests report seeing Mount Fuji on the horizon. The hotel is a 500-metre walk from the Omoide Yokocho nights market, a narrow alley of tiny yakitori bars that's become a symbol of old Shinjuku.

Rooms are modern and clean, with flat-screen TVs, electric kettles and free Wi-Fi. Many have balconies, and the higher floors offer the best outlooks. The hotel runs a 24-hour reception, express check-in and a paid airport shuttle, plus laundry and dry-cleaning services. There's a restaurant and bar on site, and the staff consistently earn high marks from guests for being friendly and efficient.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Outstanding skyline views — From the upper floors, rooms look out over Tokyo's skyline, with some guests catching glimpses of Mount Fuji. The higher the floor, the better the panorama — rooms on the 29th and 35th floors get particular praise.
  • Unbeatable Shinjuku location — The hotel sits next to a subway station, putting Shinjuku's restaurants, bars and shops within easy reach. First-time visitors find it easy to explore, and the Omoide Yokocho market is just a 500-metre walk away.
  • Consistently high guest ratings — With an overall score of 9.1 from over 3,400 reviews, the hotel earns strong marks across the board — rooms and service both sit at 9.5, with value close behind at 9.2.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Facilities score notably lower — The facilities category is rated 7.1, the lowest of all — while rooms and service shine, the physical facilities (possibly gym, spa, pool or common areas) don't match the rest of the experience.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel has a strict no-pets policy, so you'll need to make other arrangements if you're travelling with a dog or cat.
  • Late check-out not guaranteed — Standard check-out is at 11:00, and with no express check-out listed, you may need to plan your last morning carefully if you have a late flight.

“We had a lovely stay at the Groove, right in the bustling heart of the area. The room was a comfortable size and the view from the 29th floor was lovely — we even caught glimpses of Mount Fuji. Breakfast had plenty of tasty options, and the staff were friendly and eager to help.”
