10/10 Excellent

I loved the traditional ryokan and the experience of the public baths! Our traditional room was so nice, and I loved the complimentary green tea and snacks! The staff was so welcoming and I loved the music playing in the hallways! It was a great experience and I highly recommend!
Leah, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great place to stay. I was initially disappointed to learn after booking that they no longer serve food, but as it turns out there are many great placed to eat nearby. They kindly held our bags for the day and graciously allowed us to pack and reorganize ourselves in the back area before heading to the airport. They extended themselves beyond what was expected in order to help us find an accessible way to the transit. Highly recommend this place, would stay again.

Perfect base to start our honeymoon trip in Japan. Our room with pagoda view was a delight and the daily onsen with views of pagoda / skytower were heavenly after long days exploring the city.

Can't ask for more Ryokan

Lovely stay in Ryokan. Very near to the major attractions, walking distance to Senso-ji temple and see the pagoda from the hotel room. Love the stay and clean room. There was a welcome pack for each person in room. The shower facility is modern and new. They also provide free coffee and hot tea/drinks at the lobby. Staff very friendly and explained in details about the room and made us feel very welcomed.

Easy access to public transportation, food, shopping and historic landmarks. Right in the middle of a busy district but still quiet enough to sleep at night.
Kathleen, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This place is so beautiful. I had a very good experience here with a fantastic public bath. Also, the location of this ryokan is perfect, near Sensoji, which is a very famous and old Buddhist temple. A very good traditional experience.

First day in Japan, this place was the perfect experience of a first taste of the Japanese culture, aesthetic and hospitality. The owner and stuff are totally dedicated to our experience and we will come back on our next visit to Tokyo.

10/10 Excellent

Besides the room which looked very beautiful with nice amenities , what is truly outstanding on this property is the staff. They all go above and beyond to help the customers and in my over 30 years of traveling, I have never met such dedicated workers. First of all when we checked in, we had an issue with our luggage, which was sent from a hotel in Kyoto the day before but unfortunately had not arrived. I was really worried because we had to fly back home the next day. I taked to the staff and they called the shipping company and solicited a search. Two hours later our baggage was all in our room, when we came back from lunch. Then the next day after we checked out they booked a cab for us to Tokyo station as asked the day before and they carried all our luggage to the taxi. Unfortunately once we were on the Narita express my husband realized that he left his phone in the cab. The hotel called me up a minute later letting me know that the cab driver had found our phone and asking me how they could help. I asked if they could ask the cab driver to come to the airport and drop off the phone. And they did. The cab driver rushed to the airport and was happy to return the phone. These are the reason why you should definitely stay at this hotel, without the hotel staff' help I wouldn't have been able to communicate with the cab driver or the luggage shipping company.

Cute Asakusa Hotel

Cute little hotel right in the heart of Asakusa. 3 blocks from Senso-ji, close to great food and shopping and Ginza line subway. Nice ofuro (though small) with a view of Sky tower. Only concern was the noise at night. Very friendly staff.
Julie, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This is the BEST place I have stayed in among my 4 visits to Japan! I will come here again in my next visit! I was able to walk around Sensoji Temple in early mornings and nights. So many dining options. Only need to take 1 train from Narita Airport to hotel that took about 1 hour only. So easy to go to other areas within Tokyo and even Nikko. Staff are all very accommodating and helpful. Rooms are large for Tokyo's accommodation standards. Great amenities! Great onsen experience! I booked this Ryokan more than 6 months in advance...needed 3 rooms and there was only 4 rooms left, so book early, as it's so sought after! Overall, GREAT place to stay in for Tokyo!
Lily, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We love everything; the room, the staff, the new bathroom, the hot bath, the location. The highlight was the amazing cedar smell coming from the wood everywhere. The shampoo and body wash smelled delicious too.
