池袋APILA, Tokyo

Positioned in central Tokyo, the guest house is within easy reach of Tenso Shrine and Shintaro Suzuki Memorial Museum. The nearby tram stop and short walk to the Yamanote line make rail travel across the city straightforward. Haneda Airport is 26 km away. The neighbourhood is quiet and peaceful, yet surrounded by restaurants and shops within a few hundred metres - including Matsuya Mukaihara and Pasta E Vino Kei 0.5 km away, and several others within 0.5 km. For those arriving by car, no parking is available, so rail or taxi access is essential.

Rooms are clean, well-sized, and match their photos. The family suite upstairs offers two separate bedrooms and a bathroom - ideal for groups of five to six. All rooms include air conditioning, heating, an electric kettle, a flat-screen TV with streaming services, and a sofa. Beds are large and comfortable, with thick mattresses. Private bathrooms are spotless, with a large bathtub on the second floor that is popular for a relaxing soak. Some rooms have two bathrooms, reducing wait times for larger groups. Independent toilets and separated washbasin areas add convenience. The property uses a digital key app, allowing flexible access.

The property provides real coffee for guests in the morning, a welcome touch not always found in guest houses. There is no restaurant or bar on the premises, but the surrounding area has plenty of dining options within a short walk - including Japanese barbecue, pasta, and casual eateries such as Daichochin and Yakiniku Ichiba Ichiryu 0.5 km away.

Wellness and leisure facilities are not available at the property. The stay is oriented around comfortable rooms, a quiet neighbourhood, and easy access to local parks like Otsukadai Park, which is a 3-minute walk away.
