I stayed at the hotel and had a fantastic experience overall. The rooms were incredibly comfortable and huge compared to other places I've stayed. However, being a light traveler, I struggled to find storage space for my bag and clothes. The view of Skytree from the 18th floor was impressive.

The hotel offers a nice view of SkyTree nearby, but it was damn strange to have a basin in the room itself. It was freezing cold every night, despite asking the staff multiple times not to lower the AC from singles to doubles.

The hotel offers spacious rooms with a nice bathroom and a view of the Tokyo Sky Tree. The staff are very polite and professional, assisting with check-in/out processes and providing introductions to nearby attractions. The location is perfect for exploring the traditional Japanese streets, with easy access to restaurants and transport options. The dining experience offers a great variety of choices with stunning views of the Skytree. However, there were booking mishaps, and the area felt dark and cold.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were surprisingly spacious compared to other hotels, which was a plus. However, the size was not fit for four people as advertised. The service was a bit below expectations; the staff knew surprisingly little English for a Tokyo hotel, which was a drawback. On the bright side, they were extremely polite and helpful, making us feel special. The location was a bit further from the metro than expected, but on top of the Tsuzuka Express stop, allowing easy access to the entire Tokyo subway system and close to Senso-ji and the surrounding shopping and dining areas. The dining experience was a bit of a hit or miss; worth it for those with hearty appetites due to the extensive buffet but needing improvement for those with different palates. Overall, the hotel offers some great features, but there are some areas that could be better.

The hotel offers a fantastic view over Senso-ji Temple and Asakusa Shrine, although the rooms were a bit cramped for 2 adults and 2 kids, which is common in Tokyo. The service, especially at the concierge, was top-notch and very helpful. The location is excellent, near major attractions, but a bit far from the Tawaramachi Station. The dining experience was wonderful, especially with the 360 view and fabulous breakfast options.

I had a delightful stay at the hotel. The rooms were surprisingly spacious for Japanese standards, and the staff was incredibly helpful throughout my visit. The excellent view of Tokyo Sky Tree and Asakusa Cannon Temple made the experience even more memorable, though the presence of 3 single beds was a bit unusual. The location was convenient, close to local sights and the subway, but the distance to Tawaramachi Station might require a brief walk. The dining experience was a mix of highs and lows, with a wonderful dinner buffet on the 26th floor but an early closure. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few minor drawbacks.
