APA Hotel Ueno Ekimae

The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful with check-in. They apparently understood that we were first-timers abroad. The best part was the location, as it was close to the station and had many halal restaurants nearby.

We stayed here for 5 amazing nights and it was superb. Everything was so perfect and will be on my top list hotel in Tokyo

For a solo traveler the room size is ok. I made use of the public bath to clean myself for the day rather than using the small but practical shower as I appreciate a bit more space. Breakfast is simple and not much variety throughout the stay but it's enough to start the day well. Other wise you can have breakfast at Doutor cafe just next to the hotel.

I’ve stayed here before and it remains close to the station and convenient, and I just love the spa (which is not available at all APA hotels.

The hotel is very close either way to Keisei Ueno line (from Narita airport) and the JR Ueno station (for Yamanote Line). The hotel is also next to the Tokyo Subway. Excellent hot spring bath at the top floor (with bot indoor and outdoor bath). Clean linen and newly furnished bathroom at hotel room. The bed was very clean with good mattress. You have ample space to store suitcase below the bed. Currently Tokyo hotels are more expensive then it was a few years ago (post Covid, and every one visiting Japan). But the price is still acceptable with all the amenities provided (e.g. Schick shaver) and a hot spring bath. There's also a weighing balance at the 1/F for checking the weight of your luggage - very nice and convenient. There's also two convenience stores nearby (family mart, and lawson). Staff are friendly and helpful.
