APA Hotel & Resort Ryogoku Eki Tower

역에서 내려가지고 조금 걸어야했습니다 뒷길로 가면 좀 빠르긴한데 처음엔 모르니까 멀더라구요 그리고 사람이 너무많은데 엘베가 적어서 엘베타려면 좀 일찍나오시는게 좋을듯 싶습니다

東京のホテルの価格が高騰してる中、リーズナブルぬ泊まれてよかったです。大浴場など色々な設備が揃ってるのもよい。

Strategically located, just a short walk from Ryogoku Station. Modern and comfortable rooms equipped with essential amenities. We chose a high floor room with city view and it was magical. However, they're kinda small. This hotel has a fitness center, outdoor pool, restaurant and an onsen.

The hotel location is fantastic as you are close to 2 Ryougoku stations. There is a Lawsons inside the hotel which makes it really convenient. Positive: Hotel staff are very friendly. Some speak good English but overall top marks on customer service. Ample laundry and dryer. 500 yen for a load and it also includes detergent. Gym is small but clean with a nice rack of free weights and a single position bench. Downsides: Buffet for breakfast and dinner is expensive and not worth it if you bringing small children. The elevators at 10am and around 8pm are the WORST. Be prepared to wait over 10 minutes. These might be the most inefficient hotel elevators I have ever been at. Have to make a reservation and pay to use the pool. It is really tacky and in poor taste to have guests pay to the use the pool. The positive of this is that no one uses the pool. Overall for what you are paying it's great value. But dear god the elevators suck tremendously. If you are going to check out do it before 10am because entire hotel is checking out and using the hotels.

General impression of the hotel is good. Very impersonal. Staff not friendly or helpful. The staff member I spoke to last could not understand or speak English. Room was very cramped, especially compared to the hotel I stayed in Kyoto, similar price range. Wifi is good. Breakfast was not bad, a good variety. They do apologise for the elevator situation, but I had to wait 25 minutes, along with many other guests. Will not stay here again.

The location was convenient for getting to transit lines, but is several stops from the Bullet Train and Nareda Airport. The neighbourhood has a closeby selection of restaurants along the Ryogoku Subway station and a reasonably-priced convenience store in the hotel. Probably very busy when there are Sumo matches on, but quiet otherwise. The only negative was the rooms are tiny for a lavish hotel. Not enough room for luggage, you need to stow it under the bed and put it on the bed to open a suitcase, the bathroom is smaller than a cruise ship bathroom, no counter space.
