Great traditional hotel, wish we could have stayed longer but it's quite pricey. Wonderful rooms with futon beds, great experience and actually we found it very comfortable. We had multiple rooms one of which was on the 6th floor which has incredible views!!! The public bath also had the same amazing views - definitely recommend and would definitely return. Also location was perfect, right in the middle of the hustle!

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.

Charming ryokan near Sensoji. Thought it would be noisy at night but not at all. Staff warm and welcoming on our arrival and the public bath was a lovely especially after a long day of travelling from Ehime prefecture. Room cosy and welcoming. Slept so well. Plenty of places nearby for food, etc. Room was air conditioned which was a bonus.

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.

Unfortunately we stayed at this Ryokan only one night, but all members of the family, included me, wished we could stay longer. The property is in the heart of action (shrine, markets), but at the same time is a bit secluded and surrounds you with calm and peace as you step in. Our room, on the top floor and two separated bedroom and well designed and equipped bathrooms. Everything was new and well designed. In our short stay we managed to use their hot bath facility (fantastic), step on the rooftop for views of the pagoda and shrine and helped ourselves to tea/coffee/snack in the common room downstairs. The staff went above and beyond suggesting us places where to eat, go for Karaoke (including which system to request for more songs in English), and which entrance to use for the subway - since we had many bags and needed an elevator. I highly, highly recommend this Ryokan and for sure we will be back the next time in Tokyo.
