Stayed here twice. Very good by all intl standards. Would stay here again. Important thing to note: check out is 10am! Learned this on lazy morning when I received a call at 10:12am saying check out is 10am. Quick scramble.

APA Hotel Ueno Ekikita was the perfect hotel for my first time in Japan. It was clean, quiet, and close to Ueno Station, which made traveling very convenient. I recommend APA Hotel Ueno Ekikita to everyone who comes to Japan.

It’s a bit of a walk to Ueno station, but very convenient if you don’t mind a short walk. Ueno has a direct train to Narita. About a 10 min walk from the hotel. Clean rooms & lovely staff. Stayed for 2 weeks and was very satisfied.

2/10 Poor

Disappointing Experience from Start to Finish

My stay at this hotel was far from pleasant. Check in was an immediate red flag as two employees were actively arguing at the front desk when we arrived. It was uncomfortable and unprofessional. When we asked if the hotel could store two suitcases we wouldn’t need until after check out, the same two employees continued their disagreement. One of them, particularly aggressive, started interrogating us about the bags and what was inside, why we wanted to store them, and even asked if he could search us. The other employee, clearly confused and trying to help, ended up storing them despite the tension. We were then told we would not be allowed to access the bags until after check out, which was a very unusual and unwelcoming policy. Things didn’t improve during the stay. On the second day, I simply asked for one extra pillow. The same hostile employee from check in suddenly appeared from behind a curtain and bluntly told us that each guest is only allowed one pillow, no exceptions. Denying a basic comfort like an extra pillow is, frankly, baffling and reflects very poor service. As if that wasn’t enough, the elevator was out of service the next day and we were staying on the 12th floor. No apology, no offer of assistance, no alternative accommodations, nothing. Climbing 12 flights of stairs multiple times a day was exhausting and unacceptable for a hotel stay. For what it’s worth, check out was simple and quick, but that’s the only positive.
Marshall, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Do not stay here. If you are traveling solo with a single suitcase, and don't mind cigarette smoke, then maybe. Otherwise, it is absolutely not worth it. Room is incredibly tiny, which was expected to a degree, but with 2 people and multiple suitcases, it's a hassle. A lot of your time is wasted unpacking/repacking suitcases just to maintain access to the bathroom. For some reason people love to smoke a lot next to this hotel. The cigarette smell can be strong even on the 4th floor. Also got itchy bites all over my legs, hoping it wasn't bed bugs. I have to mention that the staff were discourteous during the stay. While checking in, the receptionist said the hotel is replacing the fridges in every room, and asked if they could come in to replace the fridge in our room during our stay. At the time we thought we would be gone during the day anyway, so we said ok. I ended up getting very sick, so we tried calling reception to ask them to postpone the fridge replacement until after we check out in 5 days. At first they said okay, then they called back 5 minutes later and pushed very hard to say they absolutely must do it the next day. Feeling we had no choice, we said okay. Then a few hours later they entered the room anyway instead of waiting, and I had to ask them and call reception yet again, while sick, to wait until the next day when I'm hopefully better. This whole incident felt extremely odd and I still do not understand why they couldn't wait until we checked out.

HOU KEI, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

When we (4 people) were checking in on 10/23, we waited in line for 15 minutes, and finally when it was our turn, the front desk asked us to use the only check-in machine, while front desk was completely empty. Also the room water faucet was very inconvenient to use. You can only either turn on to max, or off. There is no way to adjust the water flow, which everytime I turn it on, it'll make a mess. Room was very clean though. Bed and pillows were comfortable.

客室は綺麗でスタッフも丁寧でした。 近くにローソンもあり便利です。 朝食は近くのお店を利用しました。 隣に高速道路が走っているため、騒音が気になりました。またエレベーターが1基しかないため、チェックアウトにはかなり時間がかかりました。

The hotel is superbly clean and exceeded my expectations. All the staff members are friendly and serve with a smile. The check-in process was smooth, with all details clearly explained to me. The breakfast is not too bad. The pathway to Ueno Station is convenient and easy to follow. Perfect location that is near to all amenities.
