About
Leaving behind the hustle and bustle of Shinjuku and stepping onto the 8th floor of a building towering in the heart of Kabukicho, you find yourself in what feels like a completely different world. "BOOK AND BED TOKYO SHINJUKU" is truly a hidden retreat for book lovers. When the elevator doors open, you are greeted by bookshelves reaching up to the ceiling, packed with about 2,500 books lined up in every available space. The selection, curated by the renowned Shibuya bookstore "SHIBUYA PUBLISHING & BOOKSELLERS," covers a wide range of genres. From manga to specialized books and photo collections, the lineup is sure to pique the curiosity of any visitor.
As you step further inside, the bookshelves stretching across the walls immediately catch your eye. Built into these shelves, like secret hideaways, are bed spaces where you can indulge in the luxury of falling asleep right in the middle of reading. There are various types of beds available, from single to double, and even superior rooms, allowing you to choose according to your travel style or mood.
The superior room, in particular, features a king-size bed 190 cm wide and offers a panoramic view of the Shinjuku cityscape through large windows. At night, the neon lights sparkle, and during the day, you can feel the lively energy of the people below. Although this room is separated by curtains and not a completely private room, it provides a sense of openness while maintaining privacy.
There is also a café inside the facility, where you can enjoy a unique menu themed around "black." Offerings include black lattes made with bamboo charcoal, black acai bowls, and even black toast—distinctive foods and drinks you won't find elsewhere. The café space is open to non-guests as well, making it the perfect spot to take a break and read a book.
The shower rooms and toilets are shared, but they are clean and separated by gender, so you can use them with peace of mind. Amenities such as shampoo and body soap are provided, so there's no problem if you arrive empty-handed. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the facility, making it convenient not only for reading but also for work or research.
"BOOK AND BED TOKYO SHINJUKU" is not just a place to stay; it offers a special time spent with books. Forget the noise of Shinjuku, pick up your favorite book in the tranquility, and let the sound of turning pages fill the space. If you are seeking such a luxurious moment, this is truly the ideal place.
