Top Shitamachi Museum Hotel Reviews

APA Hotel Keisei Ueno Ekimae Minami

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, staff nice"

Nohga Hotel Ueno Tokyo

10/10 Excellent

"Many thanks to the hotel staff for making this a great 1st trip to Tokyo. Room was clean and had an amazing shower!!! Hotel was a short walk from Ueno station so the location was super convenient. We chose the included breakfast and we were not disappointed. Breakfast was à la carte and buffet.. perfect start to the day. We would return to this hotel if and when we return to Tokyo."

APA Hotel Keisei Ueno Ekimae

8/10 Good

"Great location with friendly helpful staff. Rooms are very compact, but it is central Tokyo."

APA Hotel Ueno Ekiminami

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is excellently located close to the Okachimachi station with the JR Yamanote circle line as well as in walking distance of Akhihabara, Ameyoko Market and Ueno. The staff were helpful the room clean and functional. The room was very small but I suspect this is relatively standard in Japan. There are not laundry machines in the hotel, but they do offer a paid laundry service or directions to the nearest laundromat."

Tosei Hotel Cocone Ueno Okachimachi

10/10 Excellent

"We booked this hotel for our family of three. The room size was typical for Japan, and the bathroom was very clean, albeit small. The hotel staff were helpful and friendly, and fresh towels were provided every day. Coffee was available in the lobby. There were also two washer-dryers available on a first-come, first-served basis. The location was great—it was within walking distance of several train stations, including the Ginza Line, Yamanote and Keihin-Tohoku Lines, and the Chiyoda Line, which made it easy to get around Tokyo. It was also within walking distance of Keisei Ueno Station (for Skyliner to and from Narita Airport). We’ll definitely stay here again the next time we visit!"

Hotel Sardonyx Ueno

8/10 Good

"Close to transportation and shopping/restaurants. Rooms are small but expected. It was good enough for me being mindful of space and having 1 large, 1 carryon, and a backpack. Laundry facility was good. Breakfast was light. Staff were friendly. Would stay again for a solo trip."

Centurion Hotel & Spa Ueno Station
