About
Hotel Livemax Shinjuku Kabukicho
Hotel Livemax Shinjuku Kabukicho sits in the dense Kabukicho area of Shinjuku, about five minutes by car from the Shinjuku Ophthalmologist Gallery. The hotel keeps things simple: free Wi-Fi throughout, air-conditioned rooms, and a breakfast that guests describe as decent. The location is the real draw, with several train stations within walking distance and a 7-Eleven right on the ground floor for late-night snacks.
Rooms come with a double or single beds, a small double bed option, and include an electric kettle, flat-screen TV, and free toiletries. Some rooms are smoking, and the guestroom category offers both a shower and bathtub. While the hotel doesn't allow pets and has a strict check-in window from 3 PM to 10 PM, it delivers on the basics for a sightseeing trip. Guest feedback consistently highlights the convenient position and comfortable beds, though a recurring theme is housekeeping inconsistencies and thin walls.

Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Inconsistent housekeeping — Several guests mention dirty towels, stained shower curtains, and unclean kettles or mugs left in the room. While some rooms are spotless, others fall short on maintenance.
- Noise from thin walls — The walls are thin, and guests report hearing noise from neighboring rooms and the street, which can disrupt sleep.
- Strict check-in window — Check-in is only between 15:00 and 22:00. Travelers arriving late or with evening plans need to plan accordingly.

7.2Verified guest“The location is handy if you want to be near a train station—it made getting around the city easy. The TV in the room was a nice size. That said, the towels left outside the room were a bit messy, and the shower curtain in the bathroom didn't look great. On the plus side, the slippers were clean.”
