Hundred Stay Tokyo Shinjuku Has Closed: What Happened, and Where to Stay Instead (2026)

Hundred Stay Tokyo Shinjuku closure notice — Honto Japan

Guide·July 26, 2026·7 min read·Sourced & cross-checked

If you're researching Hundred Stay Tokyo Shinjuku for a 2026 trip, here's the fact most travel sites haven't caught up with: the hotel closed permanently on August 31, 2025. That's not a rumor — it's the official announcement from its operator, ORIX Hotel Management, and the hotel's own website has since gone offline completely.

Plenty of pages — old booking listings, AI-written "2026 guides" — still present it as a bookable hotel. This page exists to stop that wasting your planning time, and to point you at verified alternatives that cover what Hundred Stay was actually good at: kitchens, in-room laundry, and rooms that slept a family of six.

Honto check: Closure confirmed from the operator's official press release (June 3, 2025) and the archived official site's own closure notice; we also confirmed the official domains no longer resolve. Details of the former hotel below are from its archived official pages and are written in the past tense — checked July 24, 2026.

What officially happened

ORIX Hotel Management announced on June 3, 2025 that Hundred Stay Tokyo Shinjuku — the hotel-style serviced apartment in Hyakunincho, three minutes from Okubo Station — would end operations on August 31, 2025. No reason was given in the notice, and no successor facility has been announced for the building. The official website displayed the closure notice through its final summer, then went dark. As of July 2026, that's where the story officially ends.

Why you should double-check anything still "selling" it: listing pages on major booking sites hadn't been removed as of mid-2026, and machine-generated articles keep recommending the hotel with old details. If a page dated 2026 describes Hundred Stay as open, everything else on that page deserves suspicion too.

What it was — and what to look for in a replacement

West Shinjuku, the neighborhood Hundred Stay served until 2025

Hundred Stay's formula was rare and worth naming, because it's your checklist for a substitute: apartment-style units with kitchens and in-room washer (all but the smallest two room types, per its official pages), suites sleeping up to six, official weekly-stay support, a gym, and a location three minutes from Okubo — Shinjuku within a 15-minute walk, at Hyakunincho prices. In short: space + self-catering + family capacity, near Shinjuku, without hotel-suite money.

Where to stay instead (2026, verified)

If you booked it for…	Try	Why
Family capacity (up to 6)	Hotel MyStays Gotanda Station	Real 43–47㎡ four-bed family rooms, 30 sec from JR Gotanda; konbini downstairs
Long-stay economics + laundry	UNPLAN Shinjuku	Family rooms to 6, private doubles, shared kitchen, ¥300 laundry, 8 min from Shinjuku-sanchome
Airport-heavy itineraries	Keikyu EX Inn Haneda	Free breakfast & night shuttle; pairs with a city base
True serviced apartments (own kitchen)	Mimaru, Tokyu Stay & similar brands	Kitchen/washer formats vary by property — confirm on their official sites

We've verified the first three against their official pages ourselves (linked guides have the details). For the serviced-apartment brands, formats genuinely differ property by property — some Tokyu Stay rooms have washer-dryers, Mimaru leans family-kitchen — so treat those as the right category and confirm the specific building officially before booking.

FAQ

Is Hundred Stay Tokyo Shinjuku still open?

No. The operator, ORIX Hotel Management, announced officially that Hundred Stay Tokyo Shinjuku ended operations on August 31, 2025. The hotel’s own website has since been taken offline entirely. Any page presenting it as a bookable 2026 hotel is out of date.

Why do booking sites still show Hundred Stay?

Old listings linger: Booking.com and Tripadvisor pages for the property still existed as of mid-2026, and AI-generated travel articles keep recycling pre-closure information. Listings aren’t bookable, but they create the false impression the hotel operates. Trust the operator’s official closure notice over any listing page.

What made Hundred Stay popular with foreign visitors?

It was a rare hotel-serviced-apartment hybrid: most units had a kitchen and an in-room washing machine, suites slept up to six, weekly stays were officially supported, and it sat three minutes from Okubo Station — about 15 minutes on foot to Shinjuku. That combination — space + self-catering + family capacity — is exactly what to look for in a replacement.

What are good alternatives to Hundred Stay in Tokyo?

Match the feature you actually booked it for. Family capacity: Hotel MyStays Gotanda Station has proper 43–47㎡ four-bed family rooms. Long-stay economics with laundry and a shared kitchen: UNPLAN’s Shinjuku hostel has family rooms for up to six plus private doubles. Serviced-apartment brands with in-room kitchens (Mimaru, Tokyu Stay and similar) cover the self-catering end — check current details on their official sites, as inventory changes.

Did Hundred Stay move or reopen somewhere else?

No successor has been announced officially. The closure notice gave no reopening plan, and as of July 2026 no replacement operation at the Hyakunincho address has been announced. If something opens there later, it will be a different brand under different management.
