The perfect stay. Asakusa generally, and Senso-ji specifically, is my favorite part of Tokyo. On a previous visit I noticed this hotel overlooking Senso-ji and later checked out reviews on several trusted sites. Afterwards, I knew I found a winner. The rooms ending in 02 on the fifth floor or higher have outstanding views from windows on two sides of the room. In their site, look for “view rooms” and reserve it fast. My room was small, but so what? The room was adequately, but no microwave. My next trip will be for five weeks and I’ll just buy one and then just leave it behind. The bed and pillows were good. The room also came with a pants presser. Very good. Use Google Translate to decipher the toilet and air conditioner controls. Everything was clean and cared for. The staff was courteous, kind and professional to a fault. The hotel is very close to a zillion restaurants. McDonald’s is two blocks away and open 24 hrs. Family Marts, 7-11s and Lawsons abound. Asakusa train, not subway, Station is about a ten minute walk. Don Quixote and UniQlo are a two minute walk away. A tiny police station, a koban, is a minute away. The cops told me the majority of their work is lost and found stuff. Crime is almost unknown. On weekends, the area is incredibly crowded, but Tokyo handles crowds with ease. I will make this hotel my new home when in Toyko.
