The style of the building and the room was felt very premium.

Stayed in January 2025

There are no cabinets, shelves, or drawers in the room to unpack. However, suitcases slide easily under the bed and there are about 6-8 hooks on the wall and on either side of the mirror. The bed was a little hard for my liking, but my daughter was fine with it. It was difficult to get the room a comfortable temperature. (We were there in December.) We would turn the heat on to the lowest temp possible - 16 degrees, and it would become too warm and stuffy. We left it off most of the time except when we first came in from outside and for a few minutes in the mornings. Without the heat on, the room would be cool, but not cold. The bathroom, however, was never heated. It was never so cold to be miserable, but it was several degrees cooler than the room and occasionally we would have liked a warmer bathroom. It was cold outside the rooms in the common areas. I won't call them hallways because they were too wide for that and we think they were open air, but we aren't sure because we were on a low floor and didn't bother to confirm.

The hotel is very conveniently located, just steps from a metro station with two lines. That station is connected to another station with two other lines. The station is accessible by escalators. It's a very safe and quiet location just next to a beautiful, large, important shrine. (Also accessible via escalator) It's a very short walk across a broad street to a neighborhood with lots of cafes and restaurants. If you want a hotel in the middle of things, with cafes and restaurants just outside the doors of the hotel, this isn't it, however. There's another hotel next door where we saw the airport limo bus one day but there is little else in the immediate area. The room is very clean and well-kept. It has everything you might need, from a fridge, a coffee maker, sufficient electrical outlets including USB plugs, and all the typical toiletries plus a lot more. You can control all lights without getting out of bed. It has a full length mirror. The room is small, but my daughter and I shared it for 8 nights without any issues. As near as I can tell based on my research, the room was not small by Japan standards. The lobby is lovely and the check-in/check-out process was incredibly efficient. The staff were helpful and friendly.

Stay was very enjoyable did not experience many cons.

Great facilities & adequate space within the room and extremely close to the train station to get you any where you would like.

The breakfast wasn't worth the additional cost, Worse than similar APA hotels, poor selection and veriaty. I expected similar offerings to other hotel in the same group and brand.

Cleaness and bed.

Room was very small but cozy and had everything we needed

The public bath and hot tubs where top notch, although tatoos had to be covered with stickers (provided for free) breakfast was solid and very handy.

Very quiet location, metro station is nearby.

everything is what expected in an inflated world; if anything to say, though next to metro exit, need long walking to the train platform

standard (small) room in Tokyo (what you have when hotel room prices are inflated); and it's near metro exit

Great location, comfortable rooms and wonderful onsen.

The restroom seat was loose, the tap was dripping, The laundry machine was not working correctly, and the dryer was not functioning correctly.

The staff and access was good. The room was clean and functional.

Not many stores nearby, bed mattress too soft, blanket cover too movable/loose

Public bath, location, clear information on the tv screen with free movies. Smooth arrangement of late check out and luggage storage. English speaking staff, quiet neighbourhood

Tiny, I didn't appreciate how small the room would be. Beds are adequate but not overly comfortable. As a first time traveller to Japan, I was caught out here by the seemingly good price.

Great location.

Stayed in December 2024

The corridors were cold. There is no bar or lounge area.

Very comfortable bed, room was clean and I liked that the staff did not enter daily, but left clean towels on the door handle each day. I stayed for three nights and was happy to make my own bed each day. I could hear no noise outside the room. There were hooks on the wall with coat hangers (no wardrobe). Great space-saving idea. There was a small bath with an excellent shower over. The breakfast buffet had enough variety to suit most tastes.

Unlike the others I stayed with, this APA does not display current usage conditions for its washers and dryers located on the first floor. Finding one that's available can be tricky. Our tip is to avoid late evening, as the inpatient guests waiting in line will not hesitate to remove your clothes if you don't pick them up as soon as your turn is finished. There are a few coin laundries around Akasaka metro stations with larger capacities, so I suggest you look up Google Maps Ahead as your backup plan. The room cleaning is very sloppy; there are hairs everywhere: on the carpet, slippers, and yukata. If you are not as sensitive as me, maybe you can pretend not to notice when organizing your luggage on the floor. However, to me, this is below average Japanese standard, just in case someone thinks it is "normal."

The hot bath on the roof and its location in Akasaka are the main reasons we chose to stay here. The Ginza Line, Namboku Line, and Chioda Line are readily accessible next to the hotel, and although it's next to the Congress Building, there are tons of restaurants, around Akasaka metro stations, and several convenient stores where you can withdraw local currencies from its ATMs. A short climb up to Hie Shrine next to the hotel offers a refreshing and delightful experience with a view nearby. The hot bath is great, although the temperature appears to be on the higher side and could fluctuate quite a bit within minutes, causing discomfort.

Can be challenging to work with the tight spaces, but such is the nature of accommodation in Japan!

Akasaka is such an underrated part of Tokyo to stay, I recommend it to everyone!

Room windows was really close and directly against office. So I never opened curtains. Staff refused to help us to book restaurant by phone. I tried to make call by myself but it seems like phone in room wasn't working. And there are only few laundry machines. Nearly impossible to catch it available for use.

Very convenient location. Hotel placed near to metro station with several lines stop. Despite it close to center, it really in quite area. Comfortable room. It was really nice to have coffee machine in room.

There was a constant weird noise out at my door at night. Not sure what it is but kind of scary

Very helpful. I appreciate a lot for their help during my staycation

The hallways were cold at night since it's sort of like an open air concept. The kobini nearby are actually closed on weekend since they're inside the government buildings. So it means it's always a short walk to get stuff at night.

Compact and well thought out rooms. Tokyo isn't exactly the best for space but this one really made good use of the layout. Hotel is clean, staff are helpful. Facilities are nice - laundry on the 1st floor is convenient. Onsen is fantastic. The area is very quiet at night and it's only a short walk to get to restaurants and convenience stores. Right beside Hie Shrine.

The room was so small - I read other reviews that said the rooms were small but I have never seen a hotel room that small. If you're travelling with someone, make sure you get along well

Great location close to public transport, staff were lovely, everything was easy.
