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.

This was such a charming and relaxing stay. My son and I were looking for a slow arrival into Tokyo, with culture since it was his first time. We loved it! The hotel service was amazing, it was located in such a beautiful part of Asakusa and close to pretty restaurants and shops! The onsen is small but you get a view of either the temple or Tokyo Skytree AND it’s tattoo friendly. The rooms were exactly what we were expecting and since we just arrived and didn’t have the “extra baggage” of shopping yet, it was perfectly sized. Can’t wait to go back and relax! We are already booking our next trip there!!

I can’t say enough good things about this ryokan! This was our favorite hotel we stayed at in all 3 cities we stayed in Japan. First of all, the location is great. Walking distance to many restaurants, konbini, activities, shopping, temple and more. The staff is exceptionally kind and helpful, on our last day we even had the gentleman working the front desk help find our lost taxi driver and lead him to the hotel on foot in the pouring rain. The front desk workers explain the entire hotel and how the rooms work upon arrival. The rooms are traditional and very clean. The onsen is more of a tub versus a mineral hot spring but still lovely facility that has a TATTOO FRIENDLY onsen bath. The baths aren’t private but there is a sign on the outside indicating whether or not it’s in use and I think people will avoid for that reason because I had it to myself for an hour. They provide traditional tatami robe to wear around the hotel. Free snacks and drinks during certain hours. We really had such a great time here, pricing was so affordable as well. Highly recommend!

The Ryokan Asakusa Shigetsu was wonderful. We only stayed one night but I would have loved to be there more. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, very proud of their ryokan. It is in a great Asakusa location for shopping, Senso-ji Temple, and Asakusa station and a great price. The women's bath had an amazing view of the Tokyo Sky Tree lit at night. We stayed in a. Traditional Japanese room and loved the experience. Highly recommend.

Great place to stay. I was initially disappointed to learn after booking that they no longer serve food, but as it turns out there are many great placed to eat nearby. They kindly held our bags for the day and graciously allowed us to pack and reorganize ourselves in the back area before heading to the airport. They extended themselves beyond what was expected in order to help us find an accessible way to the transit. Highly recommend this place, would stay again.

Besides the room which looked very beautiful with nice amenities , what is truly outstanding on this property is the staff. They all go above and beyond to help the customers and in my over 30 years of traveling, I have never met such dedicated workers. First of all when we checked in, we had an issue with our luggage, which was sent from a hotel in Kyoto the day before but unfortunately had not arrived. I was really worried because we had to fly back home the next day. I taked to the staff and they called the shipping company and solicited a search. Two hours later our baggage was all in our room, when we came back from lunch. Then the next day after we checked out they booked a cab for us to Tokyo station as asked the day before and they carried all our luggage to the taxi. Unfortunately once we were on the Narita express my husband realized that he left his phone in the cab. The hotel called me up a minute later letting me know that the cab driver had found our phone and asking me how they could help. I asked if they could ask the cab driver to come to the airport and drop off the phone. And they did. The cab driver rushed to the airport and was happy to return the phone. These are the reason why you should definitely stay at this hotel, without the hotel staff' help I wouldn't have been able to communicate with the cab driver or the luggage shipping company.
