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.
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.
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.
Great area and great place to stay. The beds are comfortable. Several staff went much out of their ways to help us with a favor totally irrelevant. Good communication in both English and Chinese and they let me stow our luggage there after checkout which helped a lot with our scheduling. I would totally recommend this place.
The staff are wonderfully helpful and friendly, the rooms are cleaned well and provide everything you really need (within a Ryokan setting). The futon is comfortable and the (small) shower hot. My only complaint, the manager informed me that I couldn't have a friend come by the room to visit l, which I felt was unreasonable.
first experience to stay in a ryokan,it was very good and interesting . tatami style and got to experience onsen ,wore the Yukata that was provided .it was a shared onsen but nobody was using it at the time I was there. it could have been better if breakfast was provided. we love the location. so close to the senso ji temple. plenty of restaurants nearby and walking distance from the Asakusa subway statiob
Ryokan Asakusa Shigetsu is and will continue to be my go-to place to stay in Asakusa. The public bath is wonderful, and it's right nearby the places I need to visit. Despite being in the thick of Asakusa, it is quiet and comfortable. I'm sad they aren't doing breakfast anymore, but the reason I can't give 5 stars this time was because of the room - it was truly tiny, and there was no place to use my computer.
This was the first hotel of 12 I stayed in while in Japan. Honestly if we don't even look at the location (Next to Senso-ji). It was a great little room with everything in working order. The public bath on the upper level was beautiful and empty every time I managed to use it. We were here for just 2 nights and it was a highlight of the trip. Very close to everything and fairly spacious for a japanese room. All of the staff were lovely and yukatas were provided. I would gladly stay here again.
Personnel très accueillant et serviable. Chambre très propre et comfortable pour une famille de quatre. Excellente vue du balcon: Tokyo SkyTree. Tout près du temple Senso-ji, de la rue Nakamise et de la station de métro.
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.
