Tokyo hotels in Taitō

Friendly staffs, good location, excellent breakfast.

The hotel's location is great -- very close to the Ueno station. There's a great market nearby also. The hotel is small but clean, cute and efficient -- a great introduction to Japan and Japanese people. The breakfast is quite nice, although a small portion. I'd stay there again if I go to Tokyo once more. The hotel room is small, but so are almost all Tokyo hotels.

Conveniently located next to multiple subway stations poor wifi

Close to the stations, Skyliner to Ueno is very fast(45min), alots of shops close by for you warming up and last moment shopping before you leave the city. Staffs was helpful to me for whatever I ask. They have scale to weigh your luggage if you need, laptop to rent, laundry room on the second floor for few hundred yens. I also let few things delivered to the hotel, all on date and in perfect state. Not all staffs speak English, but they do have a few who do, so find the right one.

Easy access from the airport

Staffs were friendly. New pajamas is everyday. Nope

The APA Akasukabashi has small rooms that are filled with luxury. The down comforter and big screen TV are great for down time in the room. The Shisedo bath products give the feel of being at a higher end hotel. When you enter the lobby you are greeted with aromatic delights and a bright foyer. There wasn't much not to like. They do make you pay for the iron and the staff speak limited English, even though all my questions were answered.

The room is really clean with room service everyday. Staffs are friendly and speak English very very very well. Toiletries replenish everyday. The surrounding of the hotel is in a beautiful and quiet district. I hope the next time I come to Tokyo, I can still reserve a room. The bathroom is kind of too small, a turn in the shower required some squeezing. Around 10 minutes walk from Hotel to Nezu Metro Station and 15-20 minutes walk from Hotel to Keisei Ueno/JR Ueno Station through the Ueno Park, which is quite far in some sense.
