• A Great, Secure Hotel for First-Time Visitors to Asakusa

  nice! 0
• I'd recommend the Asakusa View Hotel. It's a very reliable and safe choice. It's one of the largest hotels in the Asakusa area, and the front desk is staffed 24/7. The security is also excellent, so it's a worry-free option, even for solo female travelers or women traveling together. Their breakfast buffet is extremely popular! You get a fantastic view, and they offer a great selection of both Japanese and Western dishes. It's also really convenient because you can grab a meal or have tea right in the hotel, which is perfect for when you're tired from walking around. It makes the hotel stay itself enjoyable. Plus, the staff is very experienced with international guests. If you run into any issues, I'm sure they'll be happy to help you out.​​​​

• A Tall Hotel with Direct Station Access – Safe for Late Nights

  nice! 0
• If safety and a welcoming atmosphere are your priorities, the Asakusa View Hotel is a top recommendation. The hotel is directly connected to the "Tsukuba Express" Asakusa Station. This means that even if you return late at night, you can get straight into the hotel without walking outside, which is extremely safe. Plus, it’s one of the tallest buildings in the neighborhood, offering outstanding views from the guest rooms and restaurants. Getting to see the shitamachi (traditional downtown) cityscape and the Skytree together is a unique experience you can only get here. As it's a large, major hotel, the security is very reliable as well.

• The Perfect Hotel Base for Exploring Asakusa!

  nice! 0
• If you're interested in the shitamachi (traditional downtown) area, the Asakusa View Hotel is a really great choice! It's a well-established and famous hotel in Asakusa, and the staff are very experienced with international tourists, so you'll feel right at home. I especially recommend the view from the rooms! Getting a room where you can see Tokyo Skytree and the illuminated Senso-ji Temple right in front of you is absolutely stunning. It's also just a short walk from famous spots like Senso-ji Temple and "Hoppy Dori" (Hoppy Street), making it the perfect base for exploring the downtown area.​​

• I recommended the Asakusa View Hotel to an acquaintance from Canada when he came to Japan. He was very pleased. He was impressed not only by the excellent hospitality, but also by the beautiful, clear view with no tall buildings around. The rooms are spacious, so even if you're big, you won't feel cramped. This is a recommended hotel near Asakusa.

• A convenient and safe hotel

• There may be many other hotels that are just cheap, but the reason we recommend this hotel is that the staff at reception desk are friendly and you can use it with peace of mind, the rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the facilities are well-equipped. If you let the staff know that you will be a foreigner visiting when making a reservation, the staff will surely be able to assist you properly.
