How guest reviews work
Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

The location, not so great. In the midst of the enormous government buildings, and heavily guarded jail behind. Got there by mistake, too many APA hotels, thought we were getting the one in Raponga. But lovely room, at least
The room was great. The staff very helpful

everything is good but sometimes during the morning hours you have to wait longer to get the lift. Since there are lots of people are going up and down. You don’t have that much options for breakfast. If you stays more than 2 days you won’t have something new
Perfect location and few minutes walk to metro station. The hotel itself is clean and has a good facility.

As critized by many others, the rooms are very small. But that‘s the case with every APA Hotel as they‘re essentially businesses hotels, not made for staying in you room for longer periods of time. My room also slightly smelled of smoke which was kind of unpleasant (I reserved a non-smoking room). Also prices are very high, although competitive, during the summer season, approximately three times higher than during off season (January in particular).
The greatest thing about this Hotel is the location. It is located in the absolute center of Tokyo, right next to a Subway station and close to the imperial palace. The breakfast was also very good for Japanese standards. The price per night is very competitive with comparable Hotels if even slightly lower. The staff is super friendly and the luggage storage service is very convenient. I booked this Hotel in July for two nights at the beginning of my Japan trip and was so satisfied that I booked it again for the last two nights of my trip again.

The property is well presented, clean, comfortable, and has all the APA features we enjoy, like the provided toiletries and the space under the bed for suitcases which keeps your room tidy. Easy access to two train stations and nearby food court.

There was an air filter machine in there that was meant to clean the air, i had a quick look and looked dusty. I did not think it to be a necessary equipment in the room. I can only assume that it became a thing during covid only.
Rooms were small but did not feel small. It felt enough. Every space was carefully thought of. Location is superb. Just in enough to tuck you away from the busy and noisy main street but not too far from all the needed facilities you need to access.

Rooms very small and I found it a bit claustrophobic. Breakfast was quite limited for western diets but a good selection for Asian diets.
Very good location with metro station directly across the road. Hotel in v quiet location in business district which suited us but the location in terms of the metro across the road meant that we could connect with anywhere so conveniently.

There are a lot of objects and decorations in an already quite cramped room. The curtains around the bed, the obtrusive colours and patterns , ... Things like that added to a quite confusing room design
The staff is helpful in providing you with everything you might need. I also really appreciated the room extension service, which allowed me to stay way past my checkout time on the last day.

It doesn’t offer many laundry machines. I have seen smaller hotels than this one offer 6-8 machines and driers. This one only has 3 washing machine & drier combos and out of which 1 was out of order
Its pretty close to everything once you figure out things. Not ideal for 1 day stayers but if you are staying longer than one day. You are going to enjoy the stay. Metro entrance is close by (50 metres), 7 eleven in the next building ground floor, some good restaurants in the walking distance, parking available, high rise viewing deck, spa is also available

In total we stayed for 4 nights. The receptionist made a mistake for only charging 2 nights, and stated that the other 2 nights has already been paid. The next day, we were asked to pay for the remaining 2 nights, we just didn't like on how they requested the payment. We were asked in the front desk, there was a paper attached to our door requesting for the payment, and reminder on TV screen. Come on, we wont run... We also already paid for 2 nights. Just didn't like the treatment of the hotel chasing for (in advance) payment
Location is convenient, near everything
