Gateway to Asakusa
Pros:

Spacious clean comfortable room. Amazing roof top terrace/bar overlooking Temple and Skytree Tower. Great breakfeast and very helpful staff. Excellent location next to Temple 500m from Asukasa station with direct trains to/from Narita airport and Tokyo Metro. Surrounded by restaurants and 800 m from the street with all the kitchen suppliers (great place to buy knives).

Cons:

Rain - September's not the best month to visit Japan.

We had a truly memorable stay and would recommend this hotel highly.
Pros:

Location is ideal and close to the temple and trains. Views from levels 13 and 14 are fantastic. Friendly and efficient staff.

Cons:

I suspect some renovations are due to the bedrooms. They’re a wee bit tired- especially when compared to the sister Kyoto hotel.

Ottima scelta comoda
Pros:

Comodissimo rispetto alla fermata della metro, nel quartiere Asakusa che è più vivibile rispetto a Shibuya. Splendida la vista dalla hall e ottimo il bar sul tetto con una vista altrettanto meravigliosa e con cocktail con prezzi veramente accessibili e ottimi. Essendo estate, abbiamo goduto in questa terrazza all’aperto.
