the room was cozy and liked the traditional experience. location was convenient to train stations. although we didn't get a chance to have breakfast we enjoyed our stay especially the onsen experience.

onsen reservations. two guests walked in when we were inside. there should be a sheet where guests fill it out and book a 1hr reservation or so and provide room number just in case they are taking forever.

This is a great ryokan to stay that's right in the center of Asakusa tourist area, suprisingly quiet despite the location and just a few minutes walk from the hub-bub of Senso-Ji and its environs. The place has a lovely vibe even though they've been operating for 80 years, you could tell they take great effort in maintaining it well. The staff's extremely lovely and professional, very helpful. The baths on 6th floor look wonderful (though we didn't have the time to enjoy it and just took a peek). Also, you can understand the cultural tidbits of your room and Japanese practices in an easy-to-read pamphlet and the information guide in your room, nice touch! Recommend the non-Western rooms if you can afford it.

It's a little on the pricey end (especially with no breakfast), but for the convenience and the fact that you get a solid Japanese feel and experience, I think it could be well worth it (dress in the yukata they provide you, or rent a full-on kimono, and those pictures inside the room pay for your money's worth. With the bedding (for two guests) laid out on the tatami, you have less space than what the pictures show (we got the Deluxe room) but still spacious enough considering it's Tokyo. Check-out time is also on the early side since you can only check in after 3 p.m., I wish they could have allowed check-out at 11 a.m.

It’s an amazing experience in a ryokan. Fantastic and kind stuff, spacious room with a tiny cute decorated balcony overlooking the street. Location couldn’t be better, just behind the corner from Nakamise-dori market street and Senso-ji temple. Great for exploring in early morning before it gets full of crowds. The onsen with a view on Tokyo Skytree and another on the pagoda couldn’t be better. They switch sides for men and woman so you can explore both views. Asakusa area became one of our favourite also thanks to the ryokan.

Nothing really to complain, maybe only steamy window in the cold weather in the onsen, so the view from the window was a bit challenging. But you just accept it.

Had heard specifically about this place from a number of different sources, including the Abroad in Japan YouTube channel. Honest review: great across the board. Location is insane. You're equidistant between Senso-ji and Kaminarimon Gate. Couldn't ask for more. Not only were the proprietors incredibly accommodating, but their kaiseki breakfasts were amazing. Just don't be late - they were kind enough to call my room with ten minutes to spare on my last day. Learn some rudimentary Japanese and they will show their appreciation with a genuineness I didn't find anywhere else in Tokyo. The rooms are only a touch out of step with time, with some of the furnishings noticeably showing their age - not in an unkempt way or anything, just a bit outdated. WiFi was perfectly serviceable, though. If you end up staying in a Japanese-style room, be mindful of how hard the floor will be under the futon, even with the tatami. Night one was a tad uncomfortable, but I was used to it by night two. Biggest win by far was the onsen. Whilst it probably isn't a true spring, it definitely does the job. Helpfully, since the entire place is small, you'll have a good chance of having an entire bath to yourself. The left-hand one was undergoing repairs whilat I was there, but the right-hand one was nevertheless excellent.

The location is exceptional, just off of the main shopping road towards the temple, lots of positive energy and fun things to do. The staff are really fun and considerate. I have read other reviews knocking the manner of the team here, complaining that they don't speak English, well this is Japan. Learning to speak some basic Japanese goes a long way here. The senior gentleman is like an old-school Basil Fawlty and really fun in a strange off the cuff way. We paid extra for breakfast which was traditional and delicious. There is a combination code to easily enter the hotel after hours. The room had soft and comfy futons and the onsen was really relaxing.

There was nothing that we didn't like about this experience.

the location of the ryokan was very close to the station and to street vendors which was very convenient. the room was also bigger than I expected which was good!

the male receptionist was quite rude which made asking him for help on little matters quite uncomfortable.

I know I have to stay in ryokan rather than hotel. and this place, is perfect. the location is literally in the asakusa shopping district around the temple so that's really convenient. altough sometimes for me I kind of overstimulated by the crowd but this ryokan in the quieter side. The staff is very helpful, especially when I need to send my luggage to the airport, they partnered with JAL services for same day luggage service. everything went well. The room is clean, it's kinda small but enough. the public bath is to die for. 2 nights in a row I got Tokyo Skytree view which is beautiful. they also have cute tiny garden in the rooftop with the same view. totally breathtaking, worth the money, definitely will come here again.

Excellent location, staff were amazing, very hospitable and welcoming. They were also very helpful when I needed assistance which I was very grateful for. The location is brilliant, close to the station and the temple, I walked to the Tokyo Skytree in only half an hour or so. I also loved the onsen, there was nothing better than a long day walking around the city exploring and coming back to relax in the warm water.

My only comment is if you're a light sleeper take some earplugs or ask at reception for them, because it's a traditional inn the walls were quite thin and I could hear the person next door snoring on one of the nights. It was fine for me because I can sleep through an earthquake!

The biggest impression on us was the location near the Senso-ji temple. We were able to visit it both in the evening and early in the morning, when there were still few tourists around. From the window of our room on the 4th floor, we had an incredible view of the pagoda. Falling asleep while looking at its illuminated silhouette was an unforgettable experience. The staff was extremely kind and helpful. It was also pleasant to use the lounge room and enjoy a morning coffee. The area is very touristy, and during peak season the nearby streets and restaurants are very crowded, so it might not be the best place for those seeking peace and quiet. The room is quite small, with almost all the space taken up by two futons, but for just one night it wasn’t a problem for us. Overall, it was a great experience!

Location is super; on a quiet alley right of off the Asakusa Nakamise shopping street. Great Ryokan experience. Sensoji temple and Kaminarimon gate are two minutes walk away. Staff are super nice and strive to work above and beyond. Public bath on the top floor were super and has a nice view of the Tokyo sky tree. Roof top terrace with a city view was a bonus!

The walls are thin and sounds travelled. The sounds amplified especially when your neighbors decided to have wild nights in the Ryokan vs. a love hotel and I was sleeping on the tatami with my ears practically on the floor. The shoji screen doors to the main tatami room made lots of noise.
