Small but confortable rooms. Slightly humid inside the room. Less than 5 minutes walk to the train station, so very convenient. Good wifi and breakfast. Spa was also nice.

Great location near Otsuka station and the yamanote line but still quiet enough, friendly staff, nice building, easy check in/out. The room we stayed in was very small which was fine because we were hardly in the room. We would stay here again.

The room is clean/front desk staff is professional and kind. Wish guest could set their own room temperature. And house cleaning left my sheets for me to change which I wasn’t going to do. I asked them to return to change sheets. Other than that my stay was nice.

We knew the rooms were small, but even compared to the other APA hotels we've stayed at, this room was small. Could barely fit the bags and our selves. Apart from that, same standard as always, which is pretty good.

The ladies at the front desk were so very pleasant and helpful and made us feel welcome. The gentleman was ok but not quite as thoughtful as the ladies. Thank you for your excellent hospitality. The rooms were very clean and the hotel provided us with everything we needed. Overall a great value and I would stay here again.

We stayed 7-nights at the APA Hotel Yamanote because of its location near Otsuka Station. Besides, the hotel offered such excellent services and a good public hot spring (bath). room is clean. it's recommended for anyone who wants to stay near the train station.

The staff is very kind, friendly, patient, and helpful with checking in. The room is tiny and convenient the hotel gives new towels an yukata daily. This was my second visit and I definitely will stay again if I visit the same area. I did not eat the breakfast there nor park as I explored the city and used the train.

Decent hotel overall. The rooms are quite small, but the area is quiet and relaxed, with plenty of shops and dining options nearby, and it’s just a short walk from the subway station. The hotel was a bit expensive, though that may be due to it being New Year’s Eve—even if not much actually happens in Japan then. One downside was the spa policy restricting tattoos, which felt unnecessary and exclusionary, especially given the number of international guests.

The staff was courteous, and the rooms were clean. The foreign movie list was very limited, and not replenishing the coffee supplies or water bottle daily was strange to me. It's a very convenient place to stay given its proximity to Otsuka station. I would come back.
