The room is clean and spacious, perfect for our group of 4 (2 adults + 2 children, age 10 and 7). The staff are friendly and helpful. The 6th floor onsen is a very nice amenity considering that you are in the middle of a bustling Tokyo neighborhood! We will definitely be staying here again. Thank you!
Excellent ryokan in central Asakusa. A beautiful and quiet shelter in a busy neighbourhood. Staff is very friendly and facilities were great! Enjoyed my stay!
Great location, with easy access to Senso-ji temple, food, shopping and transportation. The ryokan’s staff is very kind. Rooms and communal areas are clean.
We had a lovely stay at the Ryokan Asakusa Shigetsu. It was a peaceful oasis close to a very busy tourist area. The rooms were clean and well provisioned. I highly recommend Ryokan Asakusa Shigetsu.
Relaxing room. Polite and helpful staff and nice facilities. Extremely close to Senso-ji Temple and Nakamise Street. Perfect location! Would definitely recommend!
We really loved this hotel. The onsen was lovely. The staff were fantastic going above and beyond to make us comfortable. The room was clean. The amenities were fantastic. The coffe in the lobby was very good. The location was great for being in the heart of everything. I would highly recommend this hotel if you want a traditional Japanese experience.
Even after we hiked Mt Fuji, the traditional mat and baths were amazing to come home to! The hotel is right next to so many places to eat so very little walking required for our tired legs!

Good location, excellent customer service, traditional settings, very happy with stay.
The hospitality and kindness from the staff here were excellent. The baths were clean and very relaxing to use, and we will definitely stay here again!!!
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.
Staying at this ryokan was truly one of the most special parts of our trip to Japan. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed with genuine warmth and kindness. The staff were incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and respectful — always caring for the smallest details and making us feel at home.
The location is simply perfect. Being in the heart of Asakusa, just a couple of blocks from Senso-ji Temple, allowed us to experience the magic of the area early in the morning and in the peaceful evenings. Walking through the neighborhood felt like stepping into traditional Japan.
The atmosphere of the ryokan — its quiet elegance, traditional design, and calm energy — made it the ideal introduction to Japanese culture and traditions. It wasn’t just a place to stay; it was an experience that set the tone for the rest of our journey.
We are truly grateful for our stay and would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable beginning to their time in Tokyo.
