Hyatt Regency Tokyo Hotel Review

In 2026, as part of an epic 41 hour birthday trip, I stayed 3 nights at the Hyatt Regency Tokyo. The Hyatt Regency Tokyo made for a great basecamp for our adventures in Tokyo, being within walking distance to the ultra-popular Shinjuku station. In my Hyatt Regency Tokyo review, we will cover the food, location, cost and other Hyatt Regency Tokyo amenities, as well as a discussion of the Hyatt Regency Tokyo Regency Club.

Hyatt Regency Tokyo location

The Hyatt Regency Tokyo is located in the Shinjuku area of Tokyo. The address is 2-7-2 Nishi-Shinjuku, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, 160-0023, Japan. It’s about a 15 minute walk from Shinjuku station, which you can actually do completely underground as part of the Shinjuku station complex.

It’s in the middle of a large urban area, so there is plenty to do in the area, and of course you can get anywhere in Tokyo via the subway.

It has a large lobby, which is actually on the 3rd floor.

And beautiful chandeliers overlooking the lobby.

Hyatt Regency Tokyo review – parking

As is the case with most urban hotels, the Hyatt Regency Tokyo charges for parking. When we were there in 2026, the parking was JPY1500 (around USD$10) per night for registered hotel guests. There is only self-parking available. We did not have a car with us, so we did not take advantage of parking at the Hyatt Regency Tokyo – instead walking from Shinjuku Station to the Hyatt Regency Tokyo.

Hyatt Regency Tokyo cost

Cash prices at the Hyatt Regency Tokyo are pretty expensive. Even in the offseason, I was not able to find rates under $200, and many daily rates were over $400 in the peak season. And keep in mind that even your $247 rate is nearly $100 more after all the taxes and fees are added.

The Hyatt Regency Tokyo is a Category 5 Hyatt hotel, which means that (at least in theory) it costs 20,000 World of Hyatt points per night during a standard night. I used a Globalist Guest of Honor certificate, which gave me the privileges of being a Globalist member. I didn’t get any kind of room upgrade, but I did get access to the Hyatt Regency Tokyo Regency Club (see below), which was quite useful for our trip.

You can check prices for your nights at the Hyatt Regency Tokyo at Hotels.com or read Hyatt Regency Tokyo reviews at TripAdvisor.

Hyatt Regency Tokyo – room

We were staying in Room 2231 on the 22nd floor.

One interesting thing about the Hyatt Regency Tokyo was that there was not a door hanger for “Do Not Disturb”. Instead, they had the red / green panel above. It took us awhile to figure out how to turn that off and on – there was a switch inside the room.

Room 2231 was a standard 1 King Bed room.

There were 2 separate bathroom areas – one for the toilet.

And another room that had the sink, shower and a tub.

The other side of the main room had a small desk along with a TV.

There were plenty of outlets and power plugs, and they even included an international adapter (though we had brought our own as well)

I had emailed the hotel letting them know that I was there for a special birthday, and there was a welcome gift and letter there waiting for me in my room.

Hyatt Regency Tokyo WiFi and amenities

Wifi is complimentary in the lobby and in the guest rooms for World of Hyatt members. The speed doesn’t register as anything amazing but I never had a problem getting anything done while using it.

The Hyatt Regency Tokyo has a ton of conference room space on the 1st and 2nd floors (below the lobby) and a fairly nice fitness center on the top floor, with a variety of machines and free weights.

There is Hyatt Regency Tokyo laundry service available, but they charge per article, so the rates are ridiculous. We ended up using a Tokyo laundry service which was about USD$70 for one load (which was both insane and also cheaper than the Hyatt Regency Tokyo would have charged). We could have visited a local laundromat for much cheaper but chose to pay (through the nose) for the convenience of pickup / dropoff service.

There is also a Hyatt Regency Tokyo shuttle which goes back and forth between the hotel and Shinjuku Station. We didn’t use the shuttle while we were there, but it appears to run every 20 minutes in both directions.

Hyatt Regency Tokyo Regency Club review

One of the benefits of being a Globalist member (or on a Globalist Guest of Honor certificate in my case) is access to the Hyatt Regency Club. They offer both breakfast as well as a complimentary evening reception / dinner, I believe from 5-7pm

We got to the hotel with minutes before 7pm, so we hurried up to the club so we could grab a quick dinner, as we were quite hungry. Here are a few pictures of some of the food that they served for dinner, which rotated on the days that we were there.

For breakfast, they had a bit of a hybrid between American and Japanese-style breakfast items.

They also had a chef making omelettes, which were quite tasty – I had one each of the days I had breakfast here at the Hyatt Regency Tokyo Regency Club.

Hyatt Regency Tokyo hotel review – food

The Hyatt Regency Tokyo does have other food options besides the Regency Club, though I did not take advantage of them. The restaurants onsite are going to be incredibly expensive of course, since this is a “fancy” hotel. If you’re looking for budget food options, there is a 7-11 connected to the hotel via the plaza level on the 1st floor.

Hyatt Regency Tokyo hotel review – the bottom line

Overall this was a good stay if you need to stay in the Shinjuku area of Tokyo. I would mostly recommend it on points but if you can pick it up on a cheap cash rate it’s super convenient to most things in the Shinjuku area of Tokyo.
