APA Hotel Ginza Kyobashi Tokyo Eki Yaesu Minamiguchi

호텔 직원분들도 너무 좋았고 시설도 괜찮았습니다. 일본어가 서툴러서 버벅일때 바로 한국어로 응대해주셔서 편하게 지냈습니다.

We chose this hotel because of price and location. We chose wrong. It was a surprise to be so unhappy with our choice. Having stayed in many smaller hotels all over the country during the last 20 years, we were disappointed in this one. The meager breakfast was a fraction of the usual quality/quantity and insufficient to provide a good start to the day. The single elevator was incredibly slow and there were signs stating to avoid its use during peak periods. Front desk staff were unhelpful, definitely not the norm for Japanese accommodations. The rooms were small, which is usually ok, but in this case there wasn't room for our luggage. Positives: nearby restaurants and convenience stores. Mont-Bell store just down the road. Short distance to Tokyo Station and to Yamato Transport office. Front desk will call you a taxi. Quiet neighborhood with places to walk. Comfortable beds. Negatives: most taxi drivers couldn't find the hotel without a paper map or us giving them turn-by-turn directions, poor food, poor customer service. Slightly undersized rooms.

I booked last minute and this was really only affordable option i could find near Tokyo central station. The reviews worried me but on arrival pleasantly surprised very clean friendly hotel. Room was a double and enough for one person but small although perfectly formed. I slept with my suitcase on the other side of the bed as only place to put it. However room on 10th floor comfortable and quiet. Breakfast was simple and Japanese not the best for me but managed something each day. Its 10 minutes from Tokyo station walking on very clean pleasant business streets. Its closer to Kyobashi station maybe 2 minutes which on the Ginza line direct to Shibuya and Akihabara. Hotel good for me on my own travelling to sight see. Rooms are little older so no USB sockets for example and no room safe although not sure if you need one in Japan. But for the money i thought it was perfectly acceptable.

Employees at the reception are not nice. That morning they were 3 ladies at the front desk and there was absolutely no other client around so they had plenty of time. I asked them for a favor when I really needed the most but they simply refused, even as I begged them for help. Instead of that they talked Japanese between them and started to laugh about the situation. I was shocked and offended, treating people so disrespectful, just unacceptable !!! This was the definitely worst experience I had during my whole trip in Japan.

Cute hotel in great location. Walking distance to Tokyo Station and buses. Lots of shopping and restaurants nearby. A bit cramped for two adults. The total area is about 8x15 with a corner for a small bathroom. The bed is set up against the wall and is a bit challenging for the person on the wall side to get off the bed without crawling over the other person. We didn’t need anything but there are nice amenities like toiletries, robes and slippers if you do need them. No housekeeping unless you ask for it. We were there for only two nights so didn’t really need it. The bed had a nice duvet that can simply be fluffed over the top of the bed for a quick fix. The breakfast is good and worth paying a little extra for. Otherwise there’s a 7Eleven or Famiy Mart close by where you can grab a quick bite to go. A hot water pot is in the room with instant coffee. You can use a microwave and laundry facility on the premises. It’s OK for a short stay but if you are taking kids or staying longer you may want to spend a bit more for a hotel with larger rooms or get one outside the downtown core.
