Great modern hotel in perfect placement
Pros:

Roof top view was excellent and great twin room size for brothers sharing - organised luggage forwarding to Kyoto with no hassle!

Cons:

Room/ lobby/ entrance floors took some thinking to remember directions - but no real hardship!

…was für eine Aussicht und was für eine Lage !!
Pros:

Dieses Hotel war das letzte (und teuerste) unserer Japan Reise. Da wurde sich auch mal etwas gegönnt :-). Wir verbrachten 3 Nächte mit Frühstück in der Unterkunft. Die Lage ist wirklich super, der Ausblick war fantastisch. Die U-Bahn ist direkt um die Ecke und alle Restaurants der Welt kann man erlaufen. Nach der anstrengenden Reise war das Hotel ein absolutes Highlight für uns.

The best hotel we have ever stayed in
Pros:

The Gate Hotel Asakusa was, without a doubt, the best hotel we have ever stayed in.

From the moment we arrived until the day we left, everything was absolutely perfect. Honestly, we wouldn’t change a single thing. The hotel was beautiful, spotless, comfortable, and incredibly welcoming.

The service was exceptional. Every member of the staff was friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful. They always greeted us with a smile and made us feel welcome throughout our stay.

The breakfast was amazing. We are still dreaming about the French toast, it was honestly one of the highlights of the breakfast. Everything was fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented.

One of our favorite parts of the hotel was the rooftop area. Both the smoking terrace and the T-Terrace were fantastic. They were cozy, relaxing, and offered incredible views of Tokyo Skytree, especially in the evening.

The location could not have been better. The hotel is perfectly connected to the rest of Tokyo with easy access to the metro, and Senso-ji Temple is just a short walk away. Asakusa itself is a wonderful neighborhood with a great atmosphere, plenty of restaurants, and so much to see and do.

We loved absolutely everything about our stay. Amazing hotel, amazing team, amazing location, and amazing food. We would recommend The Gate Hotel Asakusa to anyone visiting Tokyo, and we truly hope to return one day.

Cons:

Nothing bad to say at all!
