“I appreciate its inclusive policies and modern design set within a vibrant district; the complimentary breakfast and onsite café are definite perks. Situated near major train stations and the Korean neighborhood, it makes exploring the city easy, though a slightly more central location might be preferable for some. A solid choice for travelers seeking comfort and convenience.”

Hotel Cen is appreciated for its modern and clean facilities, situated in a nice, fairly quiet part of Tokyo, yet within walking distance to the best parts of Shinjuku and close to Korea Town, providing easy access to train stations and diverse food options. Guests often enjoy the breakfast and coffee, along with the pleasant breakfast bar area. Some guests have found the rooms very small.

the staff was very friendly and helpful . the cafe attached to the hotel was very cozy and had a great vibe. i also enjoyed the little rooftop terrace, i used it a lot.
my room felt super dark, it seemed to lacked ventilation. the air conditioner looked really dusty, this was maybe because it wasn't used often.

the hotel's cafe provides discounts to guests, a good perk for morning coffee. the location offers easy access to subway stations. the terrace is a nice space to relax after long days.
the location was excellent! it was close to shin-okubo station, a very convenient hub. the staff were super friendly and helpful!
The room was quite small, even for japan. there was also a strange card in the room regarding a fine for vomiting. It was a bit off-putting. i also found the room rate to be very expensive for the size.
