This ryokan was excellent-George very close to the temple and metro station in Asakusa. The staff were very helpful giving us great restaurant recommendations. The room itself was spacious – by far the most spacious we’ve had in our two week trip. We really struggled in some places – especially the business Hotel with space .The hot baths at the top of the building were excellent. I would definitely stay here again. This was our favourite accommodation.

This traditional Japanese hotel is in the center of Asakusa and near the shrine. Lots of vendors for shopping and people watching. The Japanese people are very gracious and respectful, and our hotel staff was excellent! I enjoyed experiencing the Japanese tradition of sleeping on the floor, however, it was hard on my hip joints because I am a 65-year-old female and I like to sleep on my sides. The subway system is very close by so you can travel through the city.

Traditional Japanese inn located a stone throw from Senso-ji temple. Our room contained futons and floor seating in the Japanese style and was immaculately clean. Shigetsu offers single gender communal baths which provide amazing views. Staff are helpful, friendly and polite. I strongly recommend this inn. I will stay again if ever in Tokyo.

I stayed here recently, and honestly—this place delivered everything. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, the room was beautiful and spotless, and all the facilities were top-tier. The on-site onsen was such a highlight too; it gave me that real, cozy ryokan vibe without even leaving the hotel. I absolutely loved it. The location was super convenient as well, making everything easy and stress-free. I’m 100% coming back on my next trip. This hotel is now officially on my “must-stay-again” list.

Staying at this ryokan was truly one of the most special parts of our trip to Japan. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed with genuine warmth and kindness. The staff were incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and respectful — always caring for the smallest details and making us feel at home. The location is simply perfect. Being in the heart of Asakusa, just a couple of blocks from Senso-ji Temple, allowed us to experience the magic of the area early in the morning and in the peaceful evenings. Walking through the neighborhood felt like stepping into traditional Japan. The atmosphere of the ryokan — its quiet elegance, traditional design, and calm energy — made it the ideal introduction to Japanese culture and traditions. It wasn’t just a place to stay; it was an experience that set the tone for the rest of our journey. We are truly grateful for our stay and would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable beginning to their time in Tokyo.
