Shinjuku luggage storage

Why use Shinjuku luggage storage?

Shinjuku is arguably the most important of Tokyo’s 23 city wards, especially for tourists looking to soak in the wide range of cultural offerings and get to iconic sights. The neon-lit concrete jungle you've doubtless pictured when thinking about Tokyo is exactly what you'll find when you get off the train at Shinjuku Station. 

You essentially can't avoid Shinjuku Station during a trip to Tokyo as it's the busiest train station in the world and a vital hub for exploring the city. Regardless of where you're staying, you'll likely end up passing through the train station either for long-distance trains or the metro system. Dining and nightlife are absolutely huge parts of Shinjuku’s appeal. The bustling and cramped Shinjuku Golden Gai is one of the most iconic stretches for traditional Izakaya and pubs.

For all its positives, Shinjuku can be a tricky place to navigate as it's incredibly crowded. If you are heading directly from the airport and want to start exploring, you'll probably want to store luggage in the area so you can get around better. The Bounce network has plenty of Shinjuku Station luggage storage spots along with cutting-edge features that fit into the modern traveler’s lifestyle. Bounce spaces are always more convenient than Shinjuku Station lockers at the east exit or ones near the Tokyo Tourist Information Center, and they come with a whole suite of useful features like the mobile app and customer support. 

Getting around Shinjuku 

Shinjuku is home to the world's busiest train station, so it's safe to say that the area is pretty easy to reach from airports or other transit hubs like Tokyo Station. Shinjuku is connected to the rest of Tokyo through routes like Toei Subway Lines, Odakyu Electric Railway, and Tokyo Metro Marunouchi Line along with multiple bus stations for local commuters. The station is also a very short walk from the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building. If you need Shinjuku Station luggage storage for a few hours, Bounce has you covered with convenient locations nearby, so don't rely on public lockers by the station's south exit or near the ticket gates.
