# APA Hotel & Resort Ryogoku Ekimae Tower

A three-star APA tower in the sumo district, 0.2 km from the Kokugikan and 1.2 km from Tokyo Skytree. Has an outdoor pool, a gym and a garden, which is unusual at this price.

## Verdict

The most facilities per pound on this page — a pool, a gym, a garden and a playground at three-star level — as long as you accept small rooms, slow lifts and an east-side address.

Ryogoku is old Tokyo. The Kokugikan sumo hall is 0.2 km away, the Edo-Tokyo Museum 0.3 km, Tokyo Skytree 1.2 km and Sensō-ji 2.1 km — so the historic east side is walkable in a way it simply is not from Shinjuku or Odaiba.

For a three-star the facility list is unusual: an outdoor pool, a fitness centre, a garden, a children’s playground and private parking. That combination is why this is the family pick at the budget end rather than a compromise.

The complaints are consistent and worth taking seriously: slow elevators in a tower building, small room sizes, and restaurant options guests found pricey. Food and beverage is the lowest-scoring category at 7.53 out of 10, so plan to eat locally — which in Ryogoku is no hardship.

our hotel data provider publishes no airport code for this property, so the nearest served airport is not in the data. Check-out is 10:00 AM, the earliest of the eight hotels here, and the check-in window runs from 03:00 PM to midnight.

## How close is the hotel to Tokyo Skytree and the Sumo Hall?

our hotel data provider records Ryogoku Kokugikan, the sumo hall, at 0.2 km and the Edo-Tokyo Museum at 0.3 km. Tokyo Skytree is 1.2 km away and Sensō-ji in Asakusa 2.1 km.

## Does a three-star APA hotel really have a pool?

An outdoor pool, yes, along with a fitness centre, a garden, a children’s playground and private parking. Seasonal opening for an outdoor pool in Tokyo is normal, so confirm the dates with the hotel if you are booking outside summer.
