Overall Ratings & Reviews Petit Bali Forest Shinjuku Sanchome

Only challenge - very small rooms

When we looked at the online reviews of this property the pictures of the rooms were very misleading. Our room was dark and cramped with dust coating the blinds of the only window (which was covered by a TV). The air conditioner was loud during the night and the bed consisted of a thin mattress covered with a thin sheet of plastic and a small sheet with small pillows. Probably the most concerning factors were that the hotel gave a clear warning on the cleaning card about security not being guaranteed (the elevator does not require that you use a keycard to access your floor). Also, the price listed by Expedia was considerably more than that listed at the hotel. Two prices were listed at the hotel; one for ‘stay’ and one for ‘rest’ which indicates that more than rest is offered by this hotel. The staff were pleasant at the front counter which was the only redeeming fact about the hotel. All in all we wouldn’t recommend the Petit Bali Forest to anyone visiting Tokyo.

We were looking for a place to stay in Tokyo for a few days prior to start visiting Japan. We were pleasantly surprised with the hotel. It may not be the most luxurious but it was much better than anticipated. The location was fantastic, just beside lots of restaurants and stores. It was clean and quaint. Great stay overall.

Loved the atmosphere! Lots of stuff included with your stay in the lobby like fresh pastries and alcohol. They had an exit gift for us when we left as well! Will 100% stay here again

Nice and quiet tiny getaway, would book again next time

super convenient, so many free stuffs to use.

A really lovely hotel for couples,excellent bed, friendly staff, many free amenities, including snacks and drinks. Free jacuzzi available too. Located within meters of an underground station connecting to 3 lines. Walking distance to Shinjuku station too. Lots of bars, shop around.

We had a great time staying at this hotel. Although it is considered a love hotel, we felt it was safe and perfect for our purpose of traveling. There are lots of amenities including free water, alcohol, coffee, and cola. The area around the hotel is awesome…tons of dining options, close to trains and shopping, and a family mart across the street for anything else you may need. Especially at this price point, the hotel is perfect. We also used the private bath which was a relaxing experience.

Elevator not working

The room is extremely small, I’m a medium person and the shower felt so tight. The room smelled like someone has just smoked there. I had to change the room at first because the toilet was dirty. The staff at least were nice. I would NOT stay here again.

Wonderful experience staying. Very generous with amenities. Highly luxurious room.

Too small

Great location and the hotel offers free alcoholic drinks plus all travel needs

This was a great short trip to Tokyo. The staff were excellent at check in, the generosity of amenities was exceptional. The room size was expected for Tokyo but it was clean, quiet and had even more amenities. Excellent stay.

Good location and very convenient. They provide various types of toiletries, you can just bring your clothes and stay in.

Great location and fun place to stay, but keep in mind that the staff told us this was "the love hotel" and very strict for visitors.

Good location but tiny and gross hotel

It’s a very small hotel. The lobby has free alcoholic beverages, teas, and fruit drinks. It’s awkward that you have to turn in the key in everyday when you’re leaving and they give it back to you when you return and provide them a ticket. It was was okay for the most part.

The space is very small. hard to turn around with two logguages.

This property was located in the heart of Shinjuku. It's close to Shinjuku JR from the airport and thw subway line is less than a block away. The rooms are small but very clean and have tons of extras including all the toiletries you may need for annovernight stay. The staff was helpful and the soaking tub was a wonderful treat. I highly recommend this property if you're a solo traveler or a couple travelling light. Highly Recommend!
