A Perfect calm, clean, quiet oasis in an exceptional location.
Pros:

This hotel was an incredible oasis in the chaos of the area. I had such a pleasant and quiet room. It was clean, beautiful and the staff was so kind and lovely. I will be dreaming about returning and would highly recommend. One of the best parts of the location was walking out to senso ji in the night and early in the morning and having it almost all to myself to enjoy and explore. What a delightful ryokan and wonderful experience all around!

Excellent location. Easy access to all of Tokyo on the orange Ginza line. Outstanding hotel, super-quiet despite being at the heart of one of Tokyo's busiest attractions. One of the best hotels we have ever stayed at. Highly recommend.

Geweldig mooie ryokan op een top locatie in Asakusa, vlakbij de metro en alle gezelligheid
Pros:

Wij hadden een supermooie ruime Japanse kamer met uitzicht op de tempel en alles was zo prachtig en handig ingericht. Heerlijke badkamer met zo’n fijne Japanse Toto toilet. Superschone accomodatie en enorm lief en attent personeel.

Pros:

Localisation incroyable, vue de dingue sur la Tokyo skytree, personnel d'une gentillesse rare, chambre avec des matériaux de grande qualité et un style japonais moderne classe et épuré. Très peu de chambres dans l'hôtel, calme.total, possibilité de dormir aussi longtemps que souhaité ce qui est agréable quand on est décalé. Machine à laver à 500 yens ce qui permet de partir avec une valise légère. C'était royal

Durch und durch äusserst zufrieden! Ein wirklich tolles Hotel!
Pros:

Alles aller erstes möchte ich die Lage beurteilen. Das Hotel war super gelegen. Es stand direkt vor dem Donnertor. Zusätzlich waren mehrere U-Bahn-Stationen nahe zu Fuss erreichbar. Wir hatten auch sehr viele gute Restaurants in der Nähe.
Nun zum Personal. Es war überaus höflich, begrüsste uns immer sehr zuvorkommend und hat immer sofort geholfen wenn wir irgendwelche Fragen hatten.
Das Zimmer war extrem gross und wir hatten eine wirklich tolle Aussicht auf den Tokyo Skytree. Auch war es super ausgestattet und sehr sauber.

Cons:

Einen kleinen Punkt Abzug gibt es für die Lüftung. Es ist Motzen auf einem sehr hohen Niveau aber sie war uns ein wenig zu laut und wir haben nicht herausgefunden, wie wir sie ausschalten konnten.

Very nice hotel
Pros:

The staff was very friendly and professional. The room was absolutely beautiful; clean and well designed and the location was very central as well. Also, despite being in a busy area, the room seemed to be soundproof and noise from outside was not an issue.

Cons:

The hotel was right next to Senso-ji Temple, which I enjoyed because it gave us a chance to see the temple grounds lit up at night but it is also very busy during the day so keep that in mind if large crowds aren't your thing.

Cons:

Nothing, everything was amazing.

Pros:

Absolutely delightful stay in the heart of Asakusa! It's next to the busy tourist street but you don't hear it in the building. It was our first time in Ryokan and we were pleasantly surprised with how comfy the tatami mats are. The stuff are very helpful and friendly, we enjoyed our stay, great view and the comfort of the rooms.
We would like to come back!
