Hotel Keihan Asakusa

Location really handy right now in the central. Simeji just around the corner, you can leave the luggage ma no hassle. I stayed in Koko hostel in Ueno waiting for check in time to the next hotel, staff there said there is a change if you collect the luggage more than 2pm. It was ¥1000 yen per item.

Room a bit smaller than other hotels I stayed in Tokyo

Very clean

When I booked I didn’t realise the room was that small

The room at Hotel Keihan Asakusa was clean and comfortable. The room itself is quite small, but it has a huge, comfortable bed. A nice shower and a clean toilet. Downstairs there is a microwave for your meals, and they have a nice, affordable breakfast service (we just saw it, but we didn't experience it). The location is fantastic. Next to the metro and Asakusa station, there is so much life around it! The Kappabashi kitchen supply street is a very close walk (5 minutes). There is the beautiful Sensō-ji sanctuary, and the neighborhood is lively and wonderful to walk around. The staff was extremely kind, and on the day of our check-out we left our suitcase at the hotel for quite some time. That was very helpful! At the reception desk you can find also very nice body cream, toothbrush and bathroom gadget for free! I found it very kind of the hotel to offer.

I honestly didn't understand the bathroom layout. The toilet is separate and is in front of the bed. As soon as you walk into the room, on the right there is the shower room, and the sink is between the two, in the room. It doesn't give much privacy, and once you are out of the shower, everything gets wet easily due to the fact that there isn't enough room to walk

The surrounding area

Room too small couldnt fit luggage is Sink front of beds quite awkward and privacy was nit met
