Hotels in Asakusa, Tokyo

I didn't really like this hotel. The room seemed very cramped. The only point of interest was the rooftop terrace area which was really good. You could drink alcohol up there. For the price, I think the hotel wasn't really worth it for a really cramped room where the window was greyed out so you couldn't see outside but the staff were nice and the hotel was clean. The location was very great too

The common lobby is spacious and has a lot of mangas for everyone to read. Even if you’re really nog into manga or anime, you’d enjoy the decorations on the wall and bed. It’s very easy to check-in plus there’s a lot of extra amenities.

Location close to station. 15 min walk to Senso-ji Temple. I stayed at lv. 9, can see she Skytree Tower at night, which a nice view. Bathroom and the romm bit, buy it's okay. Room a bit dusty on the bench, and when we want to use the electric kettle, it was dirty and have some mould, they need to be check thoroughly before guest check in. I dunno when the last time they clean the kettle. When we checked in, we asked if they can arrange transport luggage and they said yes, when we check out the other staff said they can't and direct us to closest Family Mart, so we have to rush to arrange the transport to the nearest family mart.

A very convenient hotel, take 5-7 minutes to walk to Ginza line. However, it has Tsukuba express in front of hotel which can go to Akihabara station and this train link with Oedo line also. Take 3 minutes to Sensoji temple. 1 minute to Dongki. And 1 minute walk to bus stop which can go to ueno and Keisei Ueno. It’s seems to be old hotel but facilities still be good. Can leave the luggage before check in and after check out.

We enjoyed our stay here! Although the hotel is farther away from the Tokyo Metro than we anticipated. It is near the Tsukaba Express line, about 5 minutes walk; but you will mostly use the Asakusa Line, Ginza Line etc all part of the Tokyo Metro, to get to most places. The Tokyo Metro is about 15 min walk from the hotel. But we appreciated that it was near the hustle and bustle of Asakusa. You'll be near the Sensoji Temple, a lot of restaurants and shops, most especially the 24/7 Don Quijote. There are also pharmacies nearby for any emergencies. We arrived at around 4pm, and there was a front desk staff present to help us check in. They speak good english and understand it well too, so you wouldn't have any trouble communicating with them. They aren't around in the morning, I believe they are only there from the afternoon til night time. We checked out really early, around 5AM and no one was there but upon check in they instructed us to just leave the keys in the box at the front desk. Also, they leave notes on the front desk that can be helpful for you. Like they leave the telephone out just in case you need to call a cab, or call whomever; and if you ever need any toiletries, towels etc refilled, you can easily grab what you need at the hotel lobby where they have everything ready for you. The hotel also has an elevator, which was so convenient given that we were carrying 4 baggages, and we were almost at the top floor. The hotel room is just enough for two people. The beds were two single beds pushed together. The bed and pillows were comfy to sleep in especially after a day of walking 20k+ steps in the city. There is space for your luggages under the beds so we didn't have any trouble with that. We had two 26” luggages and one 30” luggage and one duffle bag. The bathroom has toiletries ready, hand and body towels, toothbrushes, shampoo, conditioner, body wash etc. Also a hair dryer and extra toilet paper rolls. I'd say I have all that I need in the bathroom. The toilet has an automatic bidet and heated seat. Shower and toilet is separated by a door. Shower and bathtub has a heater. I wasn't sure if they offered laundry services for clothes, but there is a nearby self-service laundromat that we used before out trip ended. Overall I'd recommend this to someone who is on a budget, wants a comfortable stay, and most importantly is ok with walking long distances (but tbh if you're going to Japan you definitely have to be ok with walking A LOT).

Breakfast: 5 kinds of Indian curry and 2 types of nann bread , I think this is the highlight. Others are common types of breakfast, including salad bar, bread, coffee and tea and some local Japanese. The service is until 930. But the team was nice to let us have our breakfast when we arrived at 9:50. We are greatful. Room was very simple with LG dry machine but we didn't use it. No water in room. Only one pillow per person. The location is pretty ok, two stops from Ueno station.

Close to subway station, clean and comparably big rooms, close to many attractions and good restaurants, quick check in, kind reception.

Location was great, I got to experience the early and night sensoji without the terrible crowds. The room was spacious enough for my large luggage when opened. Despite the little moldy smell of the room, I slept very well. You definitely get what you pay for. Cleanliness could be improved by changing the linen covers, there was an obvious brown stain that didn’t bother me but would be scary for some.

The stay was amazing. For a solo traveller, everything is there, including space 😅. The front desk is super helpful. Slightly a distance from the train station, other than that, I enjoyed my 1 week of stay there.

A classic older hotel in a great location in the NE of Tokyo. We stayed there decades ago and wanted to return. We booked a bigger room on an upper floor and loved the views. It’s a huge hotel with minimal service. We missed feeling “taken care of”. It felt more like we were just processed in and out. Also, as an older hotel, there is little control over the temperature in your room. Either the whole hotel has heat or it has air conditioning. In the shoulder seasons where you may need heat one day and AC the next, your room can become uncomfortable. Our room faced east. The morning sun made our room unbearably hot until the sun moved. But the views made our stay memorable. FYI, rooms facing East have great views of the Tokyo Tower. Rooms facing west may get a view of Mount Fuji if the weather cooperates.
