    I stayed at this clean and very well-located hotel, surrounded by many shops and restaurants, with several metro lines accessible within about a 10-minute walk. The neighborhood is lively at night, and the view of the city, especially at night, is incredible. The staff are very helpful, making the stay even more enjoyable.

    Rooms are very small but then that is pretty much normal in Tokyo, the room had everything you needed so not a big issue!

    The location was excellent close to the underground and restaurants. Staff were very helpful, self check in with staff there to guide you and a separate counter for travel information. This hotel is part of a large Japanese chain.

    Read the house magazine and somewhat shocked by the political stance of the owner/ceo who uses it as a platform for highly dubious historical revisionism re Nanking. Not surprised the Chinese apparently boycott APA..

    Decent hotel, decent location, overpriced breakfast & only 3 washers/dryers for the whole hotel.

    • Double Room - Non-Smoking

    The breakfast was overpriced & meh, as far as quality and quantity. The staff was not all that friendly. They have 3 washers and dryers for the whole hotel. It was nearly impossible to do laundry there. Also, there are several APA hotels in the Tokyo area, so make sure you know exactly which one you are going to.

    The location was fairly close to a train station. It was easy to get in/out of the hotel. It was an international hotel, so the amenities were fine for Europeans/Americans and the room itself is on the larger size for a Japanese room.

    • Superior Double Room with View - Non-Smoking

    For noting - The location of this hotel is in the red light district. Check in is at 3pm and if you want earlier there is an additional cost, additionally check out was 10am, and any late checkouts there was an additional charge. Rooms were extremely tiny and noisy (and we had a Superior Double Room with View) and bags had to be put under beds as no room to be left out. No lounge/lobby to wait for room or to be picked up when checking out.

    The hotel was clean and staff were friendly. There was a lock up area for baggage. The closest train stations were a good 10min walk away.

    Seems a little expensive for the size of room but I understand it’s central Tokyo and everywhere is probably the same.

    Great location, bed was comfortable, everything you’d need was provided.

    The size of the rooms

    The room is practical and has everything, but in a very reduced space. Staying more than 2 days becomes a bit small. The luggage storage under the bed is very useful.

    Area location convenient however streets around quite dirty, location has a lot of bars / strip bars etc so night can feel slightly sleazy but still safe.

    Easy walk to train stations, secure hotel with helpful staff, excellent breakfast and restaurant on site, lots of restaurants walking distance

    Signs in the elevator suggesting that check out times between 9:45 and 10:30am are congested and suggest you pay an extra ¥2000 for an extra hour. They should offer people who have stayed with them before an option for a later check out as sort of loyalty rewards. I’ve stayed in that hotel 3 times now.

    Location, facilities in the bedroom and bathroom, on site Onsen, staff are really nice and helpful, washer and dryers on site. Covered area for pick up drop off if the weather is bad…

    This is Tokyo so the room (and the bathroom) is small and that's to be expected. The staff is not super friendly at the front desk which is a little weird but maybe they deal with many customers and are tired.

    It's clean and there's an onsen onsite which is lovely.

    The location was great and we alighted at Shin-Okuba to save the crowds at Shinjuku. A nice 10 minute walk through the alleys of Koreatown was always pleasant. As with all of the APA Hotels be very sure that you turn up at the correct one. APA is everywhere so feed Google (or whatever) the exact full name. Rooms are always small but you learn to live with that. Overall very good.
