Asakusa View Hotel

This is one of the best value-for-money hotels out there. The only downside is it is far from train stations but the walk towards those would be excellent since you will be forced to walk through the Sensoji Temple Grounds. It is beside a grocery store where you can buy all the things you need included packed food. Lots of convenience stores as well. As if that's not enough, its a few blocks away from the largets Donki in Asakusa which is open 24/7. As to the rooms, they are spacious and comfortable. The main highlight is the view though. It offers an unbelievable view of Tokyo Skytree. Great view.

Very disappointed overall with this hotel. Quite expensive for a family of 4. |Booked mainly because it has a swimming pool but no where does it say on any booking page the pool is an additional charge. |Room is small and dated. |By the time we stayed the next grade room was cheaper than our booking but the hotel wanted to charge me Y4300 per night to upgrade!|Lots of noise transfer from other rooms. Every morning I've been woken up by the room above getting ready for the day. |The extra bed which is a permanent fold out bed is rock hard and lumpy. |Heating is centralised and not adjustable. |Great location but wish I had stayed somewhere else in this neighbourhood. |Staff friendly but not that helpful.

Great location with easy access to major train lines and Sensoji Temple. I stayed in a room with a Tokyo Tower view and it was fantastic with a clear, beautiful sight right from the bed. The room feels refurbished, and while I appreciate the thoughtful design with multiple sliding doors, they are a bit noisy at night when sharing the room. Suggest they do something to reduce the noise

Our stay at the hotel was pleasant – the service was good, the location was great, and the rooms were perfectly adequate. However, we were disappointed to find that access to the gym and pool was not included in the room rate, which slightly diminished the overall experience. We would appreciate it if such basic amenities could be included in the price in the future.

The hotel is in a great location, the lobby is very nice, and the staff is great. The room quality is kind of average and I don’t think is accurately priced. I left a lower star hotel to stay here in pursuit of views & more space but ended up with a very small difference in size. The rooms are also a little old and could be renovated. Overall, I wouldn’t stay here again because of the room quality/price disconnect when local 2/3 stars are priced considerably cheaper with a near equal amount of space.

I would've given 5 star if it wasn't for the wifi issue. I stayed here for 5 consecutive days but I couldn't use the internet at all. The connection was so slow that I couldn't load anything. Otherwise, everthing was perfect. The location is really convenient to go anywhere (in Tokyo). It takes like 10 min of walking to the Asakusa temple (Senso-Ji) and the nightlife nearby is another highlight worth mentioning. Lots of restaurants/activities are within the circumference of 10 min walking. Of course, we can't set too high expectations for roominess of a hotel in the downtown of Tokyo. But the coziness and modernity of the room satisfy me enough.

The size of the hotel took me by surprise, it’s super spacious and big for a hotel in tokyo. Staffs were friendly and location is very nice (Mega Donki and Ichiran on the same street with plenty of Izakaya and Convenience Stores), won’t have to worry about midnight snack runs. It’s also walkable to Sensoji Temple so you could just wake up early to visit it and skip the crowd. If I were to nitpick it’s just slightly inconvenient where reception is on a separate floor as entrance but that’s a very small issue that didn’t affect our experience at all. 10/10 will come back again.

The rooms are great. Even though the bedding looks a little outdated the rooms feel nice. The views are AMAZING. Waking up and seeing skytree lit up was magical. My biggest complaint was the actual beds. We stayed on the 11th floor and our mattresses were hard as a rock. It was really bad after spending all day exploring to come back to a bad bed. We were also able to get a crib for the room at no extra cost and it was so nice. There was storage underneath for diapers or luggage and it came with a mini pillow for baby. Other than the beds everything else (location, restaurants, service, and views) was really great.

Stayed here for 5 nights. We were on the 20th floor. Highly recommend has great views of the senso ji temple and skytree tower. Only negative were the beds were small but that's normal for any place in tokyo.

We got a room with a view! This place definitely delivered. Spectacular view of the tower, Senso-ji temple with shrines and environs. Very clean room with en suite bathroom. Firm, comfortable beds. Ask for the gadget to open window to get the full Asakusa sight and sounds! Front desk has enough English to get you by. (Download Google Translate). Everyone is kind. Across from check in, there's an ATM so no 7-11/combini trips! This hotel boasts 2 restaurants- on the 27th floor "the Dining" - had two delicious prix fixe courses to choose from as well as ala carte Chinese; the 26th floor "Musashi" is an all day buffet. Musashi serves breakfast in the morning and a dinner buffet. There's a bakery offering baguettes and other yummy baked goods! I can't say enough of the hotel's excellent food scene. One more thing, location is central to the sites. Very walkable and way less crowded than Shibuya Scramble Crossing! Lol!

There's a limousine bus stop here at this hotel to take you to haneda or narita airport. They allow 2 bags check in only. They also hold your bags the night before so if you got bags bring them the night before.

I'm giving this hotel 5 stars, I think it should be 4 but the associates were just so nice that they deserve the 5 stars. The location was perfect and the view was incredible. You can get to the Senso ji temple within a 5-10 minute walk. There's a BUNCH of restaurant around the hotel and we tried eating at all of them since they were much cheaper than others around Tokyo. There's also a super market right next door, where we got our late night snacks. The room was a bit small, I got the Deluxe semi double bed with sky tree view. The room had a lot of amenities that you could use. The bathroom had a weird funky smell that you get used to after a while. Ps. If you take the key out at night it will turn off all the lights and therefore nothing will charge. What I did was I unplugged the light and turned off the lights with the buttons on the bed that way my stuff could charge all night. We were not allowed to floor 28 because it was for members only, same goes for the gym.

Our non-smoking room had lots of cigarette smoke drifting in through the ventilation system whenever neighbors would smoke, it was very irritating and made it hard to enjoy the room and made it tough for me to sleep. We could tell almost instantly when a neighbor would start smoking... Other than that, it was a nice place. Good view. Close to temples, shrines, shopping, market, several transit stations and train lines. Near zoos and museums. Not far from Skytree. Hotel was nice and clean, staff was friendly. Restaurants and bar were overpriced - you have better luck off-site, there are a lot of options. Overall great but minus one point for the bad cigarette smoke coming through our ventilation.

Large hotel. A little dated. Check-in took longer than it should have. They were understaffed, inefficient, and not all that friendly. The concierge who held our bags for us at checkout and who sold us our airport shuttle tickets was extremely pleasant despite the language barrier. He was a gem. Our room was on the 12th floor with a view of Tokyo Tower. Definite signs of wear and tear (could use a repaint and furniture upgrade), and the shower seemed to have only two settings: hot or hotter. Free wifi was slooooooow. But it did the trick for us for a few nights. We didn't spend much time in our room anyway. Very easy to reach by train - about 10 minute walk to Tawaramashi or Asakusa Station, and only 2 minutes if you take the Tsukuba Express which drops you pretty much right across the street from the hotel. We stopped each morning at the bakery in the lobby to grab a tasty snack for the road. There's also a grocery store next door which is very convenient. Recommend eating at Sometaro nearby for okonomiyaki.

Stayed two nights in the hotel. At check-in I asked nicely if I could have a room with a view -- they kindly upgraded me to a view of the Tokyo Skytree. The room was cozy and well-stocked with a kettle, tea, slippers, robe, towels, shower soaps, room freshener spray, and complementary bottles of water. Everything was clean but the bathroom did smell a bit like musky shower curtain. The tub was nice and deep which made for a great bath soak. The complementary breakfast buffet was a good mix of Western and Japanese good with a vast choice of hot and cold drinks. Each time I was seated with a lovely view of the Tokyo Skytree. They allowed me to leave my bag with the bell staff on my last day as I had a later flight. Great service, in a great neighbour for exploring (Sensoji, Nakamise, etc.), across the street from Asakusa Station). I would stay here again!

This was my first trip to Tokyo. My brother was in charge of planning the trip and he decided to book this hotel. Like many of the reviewers said, the hotel was nice inside and out but the rooms were a little dated. My room came with three twin beds because I had to bunk with my parents. While my brother got another room and stayed with his family. The furniture were modern. The bedding was dated. The room could've used a good dusting and a fresh coat of paint. The view was excellent. The bathroom was modern and clean but small. There was a bidet with the toilet. I never used a bidet until my recent trip. That was an adventure in itself. We didn't eat inside the hotel or use any of the other amenities so I cannot comment about that. The people working at the hotel were super nice and polite. I would stay at this hotel again if the price is right. Overall we stayed there for five days and four nights. It was ok and the room served its purpose.

Sweet room with an awesome view. Got to get the room with the sky tree view. Room might be on the small side with the amount you spend. But then again this is Tokyo, you're not going to get the same sizes as you get in US.

Nice view. Nice room. No concierge. Nobody speaks English. Which I get but honestly not a good place for travelers or business people as there is zero help in the English department. My room was 90 degrees at check in. Heat only in winter.

When we got there, our room was super small but our view was very nice. The buffet was super good- a lot of Japanese food. The miso soup and seaweed were delicious. My mom thought it was a nice hotel with the best location but small and expensive.
