Hotel Details

Location

In a quiet Azumabashi neighbourhood, the hotel is a 4-minute walk from Honjo-azumabashi Station and 8 minutes from Asakusa Station.
The hotel sits between Asakusa and Tokyo Skytree, both within a comfortable walk. Honjo-azumabashi Station (Toei Asakusa Line) is a 4-minute walk from Exit A3, and Asakusa Station (Ginza Line) is about 8-10 minutes away. Sumida Park and the river are close for morning walks. The area is quiet at night but has convenience stores (7-Eleven, FamilyMart), restaurants, and izakayas within a 5-minute walk. Haneda Airport is 22 km away; Narita Airport is accessible via the Asakusa Line with a transfer. The hotel is well placed for exploring Asakusa's sights and Skytree without needing a train for every trip.

Accommodation

Rooms are family-sized with private bathrooms, air conditioning, and city views; many feature a separate toilet and shower for easier family use.
Accommodation ranges from twin and quadruple rooms to spacious family rooms sleeping up to seven. All rooms have a private bathroom with shower, bidet, hairdryer, and free toiletries. Larger rooms include a bathtub and separate toilet area-a practical design for families. Each room has air conditioning, an electric kettle, a flat-screen TV, a sofa, and a carpeted floor. Storage space is limited, typical for a compact Tokyo hotel. Rooms facing the street are generally quiet due to the neighbourhood, but light sleepers may still prefer a room away from the road. The sun terrace on the roof offers city and Skytree views.

Dining

The hotel has a drinks vending machine in the lobby but no restaurant or breakfast service; numerous cafes and restaurants are within walking distance.
There is no on-site restaurant or breakfast offering. A vending machine (drinks) is available in the lobby. For meals, the surrounding area provides multiple options within a 5-minute walk, including bakeries (Tomtom Bakery, Pain Maison), Japanese restaurants (Azumabashitakamasa-Ya, Hirai, Mangando), and a brewpub (Tokyo Sumidagawa Brewing Bar Style). Convenience stores such as 7-Eleven and FamilyMart are also nearby for snacks and light meals. This setup suits independent travellers who prefer eating out or preparing simple meals in the room (the room has a refrigerator but no kitchen or washing machine).

Wellness and Leisure

The hotel's sun terrace on the roof offers city and Skytree views, and board games are available for family entertainment.
The main leisure facility is the rooftop sun terrace, which provides an open-air space with views of Tokyo Skytree and the surrounding city. This area is popular for relaxing in the evening. In summer, note that there is no shading or cover on the terrace, so it can be very warm during the day. Board games and puzzles are available at the front desk for family entertainment. There is no pool, spa, gym, or sauna on site. The location itself is well suited for walking-Sumida Park, Asakusa's shopping streets, and Skytree are all within reach without needing public transport.

Facilities and Services

Free Wi-Fi, 24-hour front desk, luggage storage, lift, bike rental (surcharge), and a drinks vending machine are available.
Wi-Fi is free throughout the building, though connectivity can be inconsistent for heavy use such as streaming or remote work. The 24-hour front desk can assist with luggage storage (free) and luggage forwarding (coordinate with Yamato Transport at a nearby drop-off point, 10 minutes away). The hotel has a lift, making it accessible for those with strollers or wheelchairs. Bicycle rental is available for an additional charge. Safety features include 24-hour security, CCTV, and smoke alarms. The lobby has a vending machine for drinks. No washing machine is on site; a laundromat is a 10-minute walk away. Towels can be exchanged daily at reception, but there is no daily room cleaning.
