2025 Ueno Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in January)

APA Hotel is a chain hotel with three branches in Ueno. This time, I stayed at the Keisei Ueno Station Front branch, which is about a 1-minute walk from Keisei Ueno Station. The location and transportation are excellent! The staff at the hotel lobby are very diligent. Despite the large number of guests, they are very efficient and friendly🫶👍. Guests can also choose to use the self-service machine for check-in! This time, I stayed in a double bed room. The overall environment is comfortable and tidy. The bed is of moderate size and firmness, with a small desk beside it. The bathroom is separated into wet and dry areas, and daily amenities are fully provided. It is a highly cost-effective accommodation experience!! Address: 2-14-26 Ueno, Taito-ku, Tokyo

Hey everyone 👋🏻 Today, we're taking you to a ramen shop that's extremely popular among office workers - Ramen Ichikakuya! Ramen Ichikakuya has branches all over Tokyo, so no matter where you go, you'll find one. We visited the Ueno branch. Here, you order through an automatic ordering machine. Once you've placed your order, take a seat at the counter and hand your ticket to the chef. In no time, you'll have a hot, delicious bowl of ramen to enjoy 🍜 ✅ Easy Ordering Steps Press the ordering machine > Select English > Choose your menu > Pay (cash, credit card, Alipay) > Receive your order ticket > Hand the ticket to the chef > Wait for your meal Water and condiments are self-service. There's a water jug available, and condiments are located at the counter. If you like a simple dining experience without much fuss, you'll love it here. From our observation, most customers are office workers who stop by for breakfast or lunch. The menu is quick and easy to eat, so you can finish your meal and get back to work in no time. Despite being a small shop, the ramen is incredibly tasty and has become one of our favorites. It's no wonder why it's so popular. If you're visiting or staying around Ueno, don't forget to stop by and try the ramen here 😋

#laundromat #tokyo #ueno #fun I was walking back to my hotel and passed a fun looking panda-themed laundromat in Higashi-Ueno. Ueno Zoo is well-known for its pandas and people come from all over to see the pandas. If I lived in Ueno I would definitely use this laundromat to see the pandas!

A tranquil spot amidst the hustle and bustle, located on Ueno Station's Showa-dori, the pub's interior atmosphere adopts British style, featuring wooden bar counters and leather sofas, exuding a classic English charm. The staff are warmly welcoming, and the variety of cocktails and soft drinks are quite good. Surprisingly, the food is also delicious, especially the skewered grilled meat, which is juicy and tender, truly top-notch! During football matches, it transforms into a sports bar, with a cheering atmosphere that permeates the entire establishment! My visit coincided with New Year's Eve on 12/31. After a hearty meal of duck and green onions, I stopped by HUB for a drink before heading to Senso-ji Temple to count down to the new year. The staff even enthusiastically saw us out, making it a truly great bar!
