Although there are exercise facilities, this seems to require an additional cost to enter, or my room key didnt have it authorized. ...

Shinjuku Washington Hotel Main
The room was clean and decent sized. The staff was very friendly and helpful to two non Japanese speakers. The area is quiet and more of a business district, but it’s a very short walk to Shinjuku station and the surrounding fun areas. We were very happy with our stay.

APA Hotel & Resort Ryogoku Eki Tower
Great location. The staff were extremely nice. The hotel was very informational about Japan culture. The only downside was the Buffet restaurant, it wasn’t that great. But there were plenty of amazing restaurants walking distance.
