Advantages: Clean, modern, excellent location Disadvantages: Small rooms and not cheap, but not many places in the area are cheap!
I'm lucky to have never stayed in a bad hotel in Tokyo. For this trip I decided I wanted to stay near Shinjuku, so previous hotels were out of the question and my budget is getting smaller all the time. Through a combination of reviews on Tripadvisor, rating on hotels.com and a good listing of hotel rates from lowest to highest there emerged a clear winner, the Hotel Sunroute Plaza Shinjuku!
Getting there
We arrived in Tokyo on the Shinkansen train from Kyoto, switched train lines at Tokyo station and emerged at Shinjuku (one of the major stations in the city). The journey from Tokyo station was easy, it's not hard to get to Shinjuku really as it's such a major station.
If you're arriving at Narita you have a couple of options to get to the hotel, you can take the Narita Express train or there is also a bus which stops right ...
Advantages: night life's fun, sing-along's a blast! Love the shopping. Disadvantages: none unless you'd rather be elsewhere
Ginza street or the Ginza district is probably one of the busiest districts I have seen in Tokyo.
It's comprised of about eight blocks put together and has some ten thousand or so shops, business offices, karaoke night clubs, spas and restaurants. It also has lots of those Japanese malls you can visit-one I'm particularly agreeable of is-what they call it again?-Roponggi Hills where the interior is quite cozy and of the rural-modern type: sleek but with a touch of the traditional.
You can also visit their Kabuki Theaters (yes, this puppet show play is still the "in" thing in Tokyo and I don't believe it will go out of fashion either); or just wine and dine on saki and sushi... Delicious!
Careful though because I think they have this anti-smoking-while-walking and no-throwing-of-butts ordinance there. You wouldn't want to get caught ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of Ginza, Tokyo
Advantages: Everything you need in one place and excellent location! Disadvantages: none!
I have stayed in this hotel 4 times and I love it.
It is in an excellent location in Shinjuku close to Shinjuku station and the main shopping area
You must check out the Tokyo Metropolitan Government building which is opposite this hotel, it has a free viewing platform where you can see breathtaking views of the Tokyo skyline and Mount Fuji on a clear day!
The hotel is wonderful, staff are helpful and friendly and speak English very well.
The rooms are very clean and stylish and quite large by Tokyohotel standards, most rooms in Tokyohotels are tiny.
The rooms have everything you need for a comfortable stay including a mini bar, hairdryer, plenty of storage space, a writing desk, flat screen TV with both western and Japanese channels.
There is also free high speed internet access in all rooms which is very easy to use.
