Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Shinjuku

Five stars all the way. Kan was a wonderful host & this house was magic. Everyday was made only better knowing we were returning to this home. Would recommend 100%.

It was better than I thought!Not only did the children enjoy it, but the adults also enjoyed seeing the children in a way that they don't see in their everyday lives.There is also a supermarket nearby, and if you are coming from a rural area, you can buy what you want to eat at the service area on the way and cook it in the kitchen, so you can enjoy one meal in a way that is very different from a typical trip.What you can see inside the Holy Planet is just like being in the universe, and I was able to experience an extraordinary feeling that I had never experienced before.

Great place and location. Sunflower was very helpful and responsive.

Yasu was the most thoughtful host! He kindly came to pick us up from the station and was so helpful with recommendations and information. There are adult bikes available to use. When we asked Yasu, where we could rent a bike for our 6 year old, he bought one for him! Our son was over the moon and loved cycling around. We explored many parks, and we didn’t cover all of them. I can highly recommend the Traffic Park, for kids. They have bikes and go-carts for the kids(for free). The house is really lovely, spacious and comfortable. Our son, had the room downstairs. He loved the mini foosball table, and having a huge room all to himself. There were welcome snacks and the fridge was packed with food and fruit! The location was also terrific for getting around. We loved it here, and would definitely come back again!

I honestly don’t know where to begin. Staying in Keiko’s home was truly one of the greatest honors of our time in Japan—it was a highlight of the entire trip. From the moment we walked through her door, we were immersed in Japanese culture. Keiko greeted us with warmth and kindness, making us feel immediately at home. She patiently guided us through everything, showing us how to use her space with care and respect. Her home is a reflection of her spirit—graceful, serene, and full of beauty. I was deeply moved and inspired by her presence and generosity. Being invited to take part in her traditional Japanese tea ceremony was an experience I will never forget. She took the time to teach us the rituals and meaning behind each step, explaining everything with such clarity and heart. She dressed us in beautiful kimonos, carefully helping us put them on the correct way. Drinking matcha that was pure and fresh—words fail me. It was unlike anything I’ve ever tasted. Truly unforgettable. The

Yume's house is one of the best Airbnbs I had the chance to stay in in the last 10 years of intensive use of this platform. It's absolutely ideally located in a charming and quite central neighborhood. The place itself is beautiful, quiet, full of light and highly functional. The attention to details from the kitchen to the bathroom provided by the host are spectacular and really what makes the difference. Yume was incredibly reactive and kind, providing tips and adresses and really going the extra mile to make my trip incredible. I can not recommend enough to stay at her place as this utterly made my stay in Tokyo unforgettable.

Besso was a great place to stay at. It was conveniently located and close to a train station for day trips, and with a lot food places around. The team was extremely helpful and accommodating , helping us get our luggage delivered. If you are planning a trip to Tokyo, highly recommend staying here.

We had a great time in this peaceful and traditional house !

Our stay here was amazing especially for our first time in Shinjuku. The location couldn’t be beat, walkable to so many of things you want to see while visiting this area of Tokyo. The place was so clean and the bed and bedding were so comfortable I want the bedding for my own house. The host was super responsive, gave great instructions on how to get there and how to get into the place. Also was super communicative and gave helpful hints and great local recommendations. Would stay here again any trip back to Shinjuku

The accommodation was in a great location next to a lot of good restaurants and within 5 minute walk of the train station. The host was also very friendly and helpful.

The airbnb is very near to the station. The host even waited for us in the train station to help with the luggages. She was very friendly and recommended a lot of restaurants nearby that we can try. The neighborhood is very peaceful and it felt relaxing after a long day of touring around the city. The room is very spacious and enough for 4 people to freely move around. It is very clean, air condition is cold and there are towels provided. The towels could also be washed and changed upon request. On top of that, the host responds quickly and also sends us daily updates of weather forecasts. Since rain was forecasted during our stay, there were also a lot of umbrellas ready on the first floor. Overall, this is one of the nicest airbnbs we have stayed at. I recommend this place a lot and will definitely book this room again whenever we come back to Tokyo in the future!

Very close to Shinjuku / Kabukicho tourist spots. It was convenient for us to walk and sightsee the area as well as quick taxi to Shibuya and Harajuku. The place is small- we only came to sleep but as a family of 3 with luggage it was tight. 7-11 right next door and great for early morning/late night snacks before restaurant operating hours. Building is quiet and felt safe. If you like a stiff mattress and pillow this beds for you!

Communication with Lei was excellent, quick to respond and personal. The place is small (one big room with a sliding door to separate the space)- for us (3 adults) the space was sufficient.( 4 people with lots of luggage might struggle.) The place is tastefully done up in Japanese style and was squeaky clean. It is very central, yet quiet and easy to get to the underground. We would recommend Lei's place for 2-3 people :)

Very neat Airbnb. Quiet street, yet close to metro station and also easy to walk to things nearby and shopping area Shinjuku. Washing machine is there and if you hang your laundry in the bathroom then it is dry very quickly. Recommended!

It’s small (most places in Asia are 🤷‍♂️), but is a great place to stay and nicely laid out/efficient. Great surroundings, quiet neighborhood, so close to the MRT/public transportation, awesome park nearby, convenience stores/restaurants nearby. Kitchen is def good to go to 😊

Cosy apartment to stay and close to the subway.

Great stay! Very clean rooms very private and safe. A small park next door is a great way to start the morning or wind down after a long day. Next to Koreatown so easy access to a fun area. Very central to many train stations making the entire city accessible as well. Liked it so much I extended my stay with the host who was very friendly and accommodating. Would stay again if I can.

Wonderful place though very small even by Japan standards. Still highly recommended, just no real chill areas / couches, only beds. Bonus - very clean, professionally kept, & very good value. Host was amazing and responsive and the area is safe, very walkable and close to a very cute main strip with loads of shops and culture - but just outside the main busy Shinjuku central area - so it felt more local, vs touristy which was a nice experience. Walkable to central Shinjuku through fun side streets, and walkable to subway lines. Overall a wonderful place - first time in Japan with two kids and it was easy and enjoyable staying here!

the host was very responsive and kind. they were able to get us extra pillows, which was nice. the room was clean and the extra toiletries were awesome as well. the bed was a lot firmer than I am used to, but I think that's just Japanese style! Just a heads up :)

Good stay in a great location. Would book again for Kabukicho.

Beihoa's place was fantastic. The location is close to the Yamanote line, but not so close that it is noisy or crowded. There are lots of places to eat, grocery stores and 7-11s(3) in the neighborhood. We also found a Don Quiote near by...which we went to at 2 am thanks to jet lag. Beihao was very quick to respond and offered suggestions if we needed help. The Yamanote line is very easy to navigate and I strongly suggest a Pasmo or Suica card. The condo is located very close to Shinjuku and Shibuya...super fun places to visit. The condo is clean, full of light and big by Japanese standards. I would definitely return here!! Thank you Beihoa for helping to make our visit amazing!!! My son and I fell in love with Japan!❤️

Great location. Super clean and comfortable. Responsive host and easy check in/out. Sho even left two beers in the fridge for my travel mate and I! Being that it is Japan, the place is a bit small. Perfect for solo travelers or a group of two. This wasn’t a deal breaker for us but just consider before bringing more people or large amounts of luggage. This place is great! Thank you, Sho!

Highly recommended to stay in this location for your trip to Japan. Located about 10 minutes from the train station. The house itself is extremely clean and has everything you need - the dryer in the bathroom was a lifesaver! There are also a lot of nearby convenience stores, drugstores, groceries, and even a Don Quijote. The area is residential so the place is intimate and quiet. Also, the hosts are extremely easy to reach out to. They are accommodating and friendly as well.

It was a great place to stay for our trip to Tokyo. The host was so responsive, and helped us with everything!!! Thanks again!
