APA Hotel & Resort Ryogoku Eki Tower

10/10 Excellent

"Second time at this hotel. I love the Onsen in the basement and the convenience of having a conbini on site. You can access everywhere by public transport easily too. It’s a bit of a quieter area so maybe not for night life lovers. Yes the rooms are small but they are well designed and you won’t be in them much with all of Tokyo to explore. Beds are comfy and changed when the room is cleaned every three days. Coffee, towels, robes and other amenities are left in a bag daily. Staff were helpful re booking bag transfer to airport etc but don’t expect fluent English from all. Google translate can help if in doubt. "

Hotel Metropolitan Edmont Tokyo

10/10 Excellent

"This place was incredible! It was super convenient, right next to different transportation lines. It was like a central hub, making it easy to get to everything I wanted to see. In addition to that, the food options and staff were great. I’d recommend checking out Midtown BBQ too. It’s right next door. Don’t let the quiet building nextdoor fool you. There’s a 711 there open 24 hours a day. Same building as the bbq. "
