What guests think

At APA Hotel Ochanomizu Ekikita, travellers consistently find compact rooms and friendly, efficient staff in a quiet, convenient spot near multiple stations and Akihabara, though the building-controlled air conditioning can be hard to adjust.

Several reviews say it’s a 5–15 minute walk to multiple metro and JR stops, with an uphill approach that can be tiring with luggage. Breakfast is often praised for taste and value, though the small dining room and limited variety are noted. Housekeeping is generally reliable, but a minority report odors or missed spots. Expect a practical, budget-friendly base suited to short stays with straightforward access to central Tokyo.

You can’t check in early without a fee, possibly even early at all without notifying them. However, you can store your luggage there for free, so it wasn’t that big of a deal. We utilized the laundry facilities and it would’ve been nice if there was even one other machine as there is only one washer and one dryer, but it did the job. The area around the hotel is nice, it’s a short walk to the Don Quixote in Akihabara, and there is a Family Mart right next to the hotel itself. However, I had a large check in bag and a carry on bag and had to lug it up multiple stairs and up a slight hill from the train station, so just be warned that it is a trek from the train station to the hotel. Otherwise, the hotel was just like all the APA locations I stayed at! It was cleaner than the one in Osaka and it was more modern looking. The staff were polite and helpful.

Siamo stati due settimane a Tokyo ed abbiamo alloggiato presso APA Hotel Ochanomizu Ekikita; la struttura è davvero accogliente e pulita, il personale cordialissimo, check-in e check-out veloci, zona estremamente comoda (a due passi da Akihabara e vicinissima a diverse stazioni della metropolitana). Le stanze sono piccole, ma non è stato un problema siccome abbiamo trascorso la maggior parte del nostro tempo in giro per la città. Unica pecca che ho riscontrato è stata nel servizio di lavanderia, una sola coppia di lavatrice ed asciugatrice per tutta la struttura. Il resto davvero impeccabile, sceglierò di nuovo la catena di hotel APA per i prossimi viaggi in Giappone!

車を利用する人が少ないせいか、ホテルの駐車場が残っていたが駐車料金が別途かかる。部屋が狭かったので身動きが取りずらかった。壁の赤いシミが気になった。トイレ、浴室が生乾きのような雑菌の匂いがした。夕食はホテル内レストランも予約満席、周辺飲食店も満席で探すのに苦労した。ラーメン屋は多い。朝食はちょうど良い量が食べられ、味噌汁やウインナーが美味しかった。チェックアウトしてからはカードを返してしまうので駐車場に行くのにエレベーターが使えず、先に荷物を積むと良かった。

Good location. Close (within 10 minutes walk) to Ochanomizu, Yushima, and sushi to-chi stations. Convenience store next door. Fair number of restaurants including a good French place just down the street. Large temples and shrines nearby. Rooms are tiny but clean. Small refrigerator with in room. Very complicated sink/shower fixture that took a while to figure out. Staff friendly. On the downside, staff seems to know little about the surrounding area and I got towels delivered each night although I told them I didn’t need new ones. That said, affordable and just fine if all you need is a place to sleep and will be spending most of your time out and about.

I would not recommend staying here. There were so many little annoying things about our room (a Queen bed room) that it definitely had a negative impact on our stay. For instance, the A/C is controlled by the building, and so even though we didn't turn the heater on, it was unbearably hot every night. Other issues included: there only being outlets on one side of the bed; the toilet is so cramped against the sink, wall, and door, it was uncomfortable; the shower head (wand) wouldn't ever point in the right direction, etc; it could have been much cleaner, etc.

Great clean, affordable, convenient to 7-11 and metro stations, dining and shops. It's small but it was fine for us. It was a bit hot at night sometimes but doable. Can't control the temperature because it's central air but the front desk gave my daughter's a portable fan to put in their room and it made the room temperature better. Staff was friendly and check in and out was smooth. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay in Tokyo!

And you get called on the hour for extra charge (I got called at 10 & 11 twice) I recommend their ¥1400 buffet breakfast that’s much better than outside. Rooms are very very small/compact. Everything else follows Japanese standards in my opinion.

Hotel was very nice. 10 minute walk from Ochanomizu Station. I'm sure it'd be faster if there weren't construction going at the station. The hostess at the front desk was very nice, check in was quick and painless. The room was definitely on the tighter side but for a night, it was do-able. The breakfast was delicious! It was a buffet style breakfast with a nice lady running the front end.

The hotel room was really clean and tidy. The staff were very nice. Breakfast was great with healthy options as well. There is a Family Mart store next door and lots of restaurants to choose from. The only thing which I felt concerned about was that the people in the area didn’t seem very friendly towards international tourists. While the location might be great for locals, it didn’t feel the same way for people from overseas. When my partner and I got off at the train station on Sunday, there was a protest outside the station against immigration. We had no idea and felt quite unsafe as we witnessed a near physical altercation. While this is not the hotel’s fault or doing, I think it is important for overseas travellers to be aware and be prepared.
