I think this hotel is really amazing! I had been living here for a week. Most employees could speak Chinese and English, and that’s a pretty nice thing for a foreigner visitor like me. The hotels is 24 hr open, so no need to worry about the check-in time.

Since the hotel is a shared room, there will have some general questions. For example, the day-to-day routine might not match so well.( like me, I’m that kind of person who will go to a hot springs in 2 a.m. and go back with an instant noodles at 3 a.m.)(sorry that I’m a bad roommate)

Thanks for letting me check-in early! You know how thankful I am after long flight for a day because I had to transit in Hong Kong. Everything was unexpectedly pleasant! Even though it’s dorm, they have anything you need such as bathroom (one with bath up), toilet, powder room including hair dryer and hair iron. The room was completely quiet which is I really thankful! Usually when you stay in a dorm, you should be ready with the noise. The bed, linen, blanket everything was perfect! The locker fit my 21 inches luggage and bag. They have small kitchen for you to use. The laundry available for 2 machines (200 Yen for washing, 100 Yen for 30 minutes drying). Definitely would come back if I have a chance to visit Asakusa again!

Nothing. I just didn’t get a chance to see the rooftop due to my busy itinerary. If you have chance, give it a visit!

The staff were very nice and spoke English. The location was very accessible, just a few minutes' walk away from the Asakusa (Ginza Line) subway station (very easy to get mostly anywhere else in Tokyo) and not too far from several convenience stores. Coin-operated washer and dryer were easy enough to figure out, showers/bathrooms were always kept clean, and most if not all other travelers were quiet/respectful. Checkout was very easy, just dropped off my key at the front desk.

I do wish there was a bit more space to stow luggage, something like an overflow area. The locker provided was big enough to hold a large-sized luggage bag, which should be enough for most, but I had a second bag for souvenirs for friends and family back home.

I think this was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. First of all, I want to thank the staff, especially Sami, who was incredibly kind and helped me whenever I needed advice! The atmosphere feels just like home, and you realize it within a few hours—there’s always someone around, and there’s always a chance to make great friendships, like I did with Erkin, Jimmy, and Macy! I’ll miss them all and hope to see them again one day! All of this was thanks to Tora Hotel! I can’t wait to come back!

I think the only "flaw," if we can call it that, is the location of the showers, which are on the first floor, making them a bit "inconvenient," but nothing more!

This property was very well designed with minimalist aesthetics. It had a nice small comfortable lounge area in the lobby. The location is situated in a quiet neighborhood. The hotel staff is some of the best I’ve come across. All of them were really nice and polite and just wonderful! The facility is extremely clean and spotless. One of the cleanest hostels I’ve ever stayed at and you’re able to cook here as well and everyone is just especially nice here including the travelers as well. Very well organized operation. The room temperature were also easily adjusted if it’s too hot and stuffy for someone who prefers cooler temperatures. And I love that there’s no second hand smoke anywhere!

The shower floors were only on the first. But this was not an issue since everything else made up for it.

The location is conveniently a short walk from Asakusa and Honjo-Azumbashi which make it easy to explore the city. The neighborhood is very local, vibrant and SAFE with nearby convenient store, small restaurants and cafe. the Manager JONA and staff Ms. GHIMIRE made my stay memorable; they were incredibly helpful and established a genuine rapport with all the guests and let the guests felt they're most welcome. I highly recommend TORA Hotel Asakusa for anyone looking for a friendly atmosphere and great accessibility.

The anytime accessibility of Kitchen to guest in the morning. There should be a specified time for the guests on accessing the cooking facility - pertaining to induction stove since some guests take time on preparing their breakfast and limits the access to those other guests who wanted to prepare a coffee, re-heat food by microwave, have a quick toast of bread. Some guests are preparing their complete breakfast meal and occupying the working kitchen for a very very long time which limits to other guest to access the kitchen facility (Consideration of courtesy to other guest).

Good location. - They have women-only showers on the women’s floor, which are very clean. (There are also mixed showers on the first floor.) - The staff is great. You can grab drinks on the first floor at reasonable prices - for example, a latte costs just 300 yen and tastes great. - The women’s floor requires a passcode for entry, which adds a nice level of security. - Large lockers (with keys provided) are available, spacious enough to store 50L backpacks. - Showers are stocked with shampoo and body wash, so there’s no need to bring or pay extra for those. - Free towels are included, and you only pay if you need additional ones. - The common area is well-organized and convenient for working on a laptop. - Luggage storage is available before check-in and after check-out. There’s only an additional charge if you leave your luggage for more than a day after checking out.

The beds are designed with some open space around them, which makes it easy to accidentally drop things. - There is no separation between the luggage storage area (lockers) and the beds, so when people are talking or packing, it’s hard not to hear them clearly from the beds. - Climbing up to or getting down from the top bunks is a bit hard. - The hostel is generally clean, but I noticed a few small stains on my pillow, and there was a piece of wood above the bed that was covered in dust. - Beds located near the windows can be a bit chilly, though not uncomfortably so for sleeping.

The beds were incredibly comfortable, very close to Asakusa, Sky tree and the metro station going to Narita and Haneda airport. The staff was very friendly and polite. The whole design of the building was very modern and stylish and it was overall quite clean. I didn't get any breakfast there, and I'm not sure there actually is any.

I think the pictures are a bit missleading. It seems like there's a rooftop area to hang out, but it seems there's actually only a small area to hang out with small tables in the lobby, though it has places to charge your devices and it's got a nice modern design. Maybe the rooftop's closed since the pandemic?

This was my first time staying at a hostel so I was a bit nervous, but it exceeded my expectations! The facilities were great and everything was very clean, there was a funky smell in one of the bathrooms for the girls dorms but other than that it was clean. Staff was super friendly and always greeted you and location is very close to sky tree. Had no problems with the other dorm mates everyone was very respectful. Didn't try anything from the cafe but they have beverages available and a little kitchen for you to use and store your things.

The mattresses are very thin and uncomfortable , but i still slept through the night. You're only there to sleep. There was a funky smell in one of the bathrooms. The area for the lockers is a bit small so if more than one person is opening their luggage it can be a bit uncomfortable.

All the staff were super professional and respectful, and they are available 24/7. This was my final stay in Japan after a long trip, and I was happy with the facilities. The lockers are huge, and I was able to fit a 28-inch suitcase. The bed was comfortable, and there was a little shelf area in the bed area where you can place some stuff, which was handy. Things can easily slip under the bed through the sides since it isn't technically a capsule, so be mindful of that when you pack up your stuff and leave. The showers and restroom were pretty standard among hostels. There was a vanity area on the floor where you can sit on one of those white cream boucle chairs and do some skincare or makeup. They also will store your luggage on the day of check-in/check-out for as long as you need them to. They even had a portable luggage scale on hand, which was a very convenient way of checking my bag's weight before heading to the airport. The area was safe and in walking distance of the Ginza and Asakusa line. This place is also near skytree which is a great sight to see when you are walking at night.

I think they could clean the white cream boucle chairs a bit more frequently since you can easily see any dirt or stains on them given their lighter color. The laundry machines were also kind of meh when I tried them, but I did have a lot of clothes, so that naturally makes it harder for everything to dry. I ended up just walking to a laundromat with big dryers, and that worked well. A lot of Japanese washing machines come with their own soap, but you had to add soap to the one in the hostel. Luckily, you can buy it from them or get it elsewhere. Overall, a good standard hostel stay in Japan.
