Hotel Gracery Shinjuku

Hotel Gracery Shinjuku

8/10 Good
"The Godzilla theme was pretty cool, and the staff were amazing. However, the Godzilla themed food was mediocre. Anyway, the location is right in the middle of the action. So if you want a great hotel with many shops, restaurant, bars, etc .. nearby then this is the hotel for you. Plus the coin operated laundry room was great for me."
