Nice location

Location was great, especially if you're looking for Korean cuisine in Tokyo! Both hotel and room was clean, easy to use, and offered plenty. The bed was quite firm, but that's a personal preference for anyone.

The room was quite small and the bathroom could use some updating as the water from the shower pooled away from the actual drain making it look like it was dirty all the time. The reception area was nice though.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hotel Rio! The room was very well sized for the area and super comfortable, and the staff was very nice and helpful. The location is also unbeatable - you’re just a few minutes walk from Kabukicho as well as Shinjuku and Okubo stations, which gives you easy access pretty much anywhere via the Yamanote Line. The 24h Don Quijote across the street is also helpful for anything you may have forgotten to pack. One thing to note - it’s not a quiet part of town, though this didn’t bother me at all. I actually really enjoy hearing the sounds of the city. Just something to keep in mind! Overall, would highly recommend Hotel Rio to anyone staying in Shinjuku! I’ll certainly be returning the next time we visit.

The room had a little sofa, table, fridge & microwave. Great if you're staying a few nights. About 15 minutes' walk from Shinjuku station but closer to Shin-Okubo (7minutes). Convenience store across the street with a breakfast cafe above. Would definitely stay there again!

The hotel was on a busy street/ alley yet it was extremely quiet. The rooms were clean including bathroom and toilet. My first experience staying at a touch free no front desk concierge unless you ring the bell! The new age I guess! No complaints.

Staff were very friendly throughout the stay, room had kettle, fridge and microwave which was convenient. Hotel was well situated for train stations and shops, despite being in a busy area we were rarely disturbed by noise from outside. Laundry room was a nice bonus especially as you didn’t need to provide washing detergent. Overall, a great experience at this hotel, the building is showing its age in places but this does not detract from all the positives.

All around a nice experience. The staff were very kind and helpful. I stayed for three weeks and grew very fond of the hotel and surrounding area. It's in a very convenient location with many useful things within walking distance, and it's easy to get around Tokyo as there is a Yamanote line station fairly close. The entire hotel felt clean and the staff was very nice. We efficiently communicated despite the language barrier and there were no problems.

We had 4 nights booked but canceled after one night. Very old hotel with rooms in a very bad condition. Check in time is 4pm unlike the regular 3pm, and the checkout is at 10am instead at 11am.Toilet, wash basin and the shower are all in different places. Major renovation needed.

Good location but security is questionable

Hotel location is good, 15 min walk to Shinjuku Stn, 5-10 min walk to other stns. Room was clean and comfortable, big shower with tub. Seperate toliet room. Doesn'thave daily room cleaning, you have to request it. The security of the hotel is of concern. No one mans the front desk. Every time we went in and out, no one was there. Anyone can enter the hotel and elevator requires no key card to get onto the floors, so security is none existing. If solo traveler and security is top of list, this hotel is not it.
