APA HOTEL NAGATACHO HANZOMON EKIMAE, Tokyo

The hotel is conveniently positioned in a peaceful business district, with Hanzomon and Kojimachi stations each a short walk away. An 8-minute subway ride reaches Shibuya, 7 minutes to Ginza, and Shinjuku is accessible in 4 minutes from JR Yotsuya Station (13 minutes on foot). The area is quiet at night, with convenience stores and several dining options within 300 metres. The Imperial Palace grounds are within a stroll, and Tokyo Station is also walkable. Haneda Airport is a 30-minute drive, though no shuttle is available; a cab stand is at the airport.

All rooms feature a double bed with an original mattress designed for weight distribution, a flat-screen TV, a desk, and a small refrigerator. The private bathroom includes a bathtub, free toiletries, and a washlet. Heating and air conditioning are provided, and some rooms allow window opening - useful when temperature adjustment is limited. Space is minimal: the double room is tight for two people with luggage, and there are no drawers or wardrobes for unpacking. Road-facing rooms may be noisier. Connecting rooms are possible for two double rooms or a double plus a single.

The hotel's restaurant, located on the ground floor, is also an Irish pub (IRISH PUB Peter Cole). Breakfast is buffet style, available for purchase at the front desk the day before for 1500 yen, or 1700 JPY on the day. For other meals, the pub offers European cuisine but has been noted for limited portions and quality. Several restaurants and convenience stores are within a 3-minute walk, including Family Mart and multiple cafés and eateries along the same street.

The hotel does not have a spa, wellness centre, swimming pool, or onsen. For relaxation, the quiet neighbourhood and proximity to the Imperial Palace gardens provide pleasant walking options. Vending machines for drinks are located on site.

WiFi is free in all areas. The 24-hour front desk offers express check-in/out for an additional charge and can assist with baggage forwarding to other cities (e.g., Kyoto). Free luggage storage is available before check-in and after check-out on the same day only. Daily housekeeping is provided, and on days without cleaning, towels and amenities are replenished via a bag left outside the door. A coin-operated laundry with washing machines and dryers is on the first floor. Business amenities include a trouser press and a lift. Safety features include 24-hour security, key card access, and CCTV. Parking costs 4000 JPY per day on site (no reservation needed).
