This traditional ryokan in the heart of Asakusa is the perfect place to start your trip in Japan. The place looked gorgeous inside and outside and the staff members were super kind and helpful! The tatami flooring is amazing and I really loved the futon as well, but to be honest getting a yukata was just the best of them all :) The staff also offered some candies and free drinks as well as the private onsen experience you can reserve, but unfortunately I couldn't try that this time. Still thank you so much for the amazing stay! I would most definitely stay here again and hopefully try the onsen next time :D

The rooms are lovely, with a sleeping area and a sitting area. I also really liked the fact that there are air purifiers in each room. The private bath on the first floor is great, and the lounge area on the first floor is also very nice. The staff are helpful. Asakusa location makes it very easy to access shops and restaurants, but the area can be very crowded.

The bathroom is very small, and the sink is in the shower area. You have to turn the faucet from shower to sink mode, but you have to be very careful not to spray yourself with shower water when turning off the water to the sink.

Our stay at Ryokan Kamogawa Asakusa is characterised as “ service par excellence “ from the moment we checked in to our. Heck out - the service was very warm and personal . The staff made sure our needs are met : 1. When we needed directions to get to the location ; 2. When we needed a good place to eat our meals - all the suggested places were excellent choices and value for money and 3. When we needed to a buy a special souvenir , they went out their usual service to locate the right store .

Check out time - it’s too early 10Am .

It certainly was an authentic experience that can't compare with that of a bigger chain hotel. It is located right at one of the most popular tourist spots in Tokyo (Asakusa shrine). The bathroom is rather small but clean and has all of what's needed. Hot water filled up every day for tea in thermos bottle.

It may not fit the concept, but something like a bigger chair with backrest would be cool to relax during the day. Also, while the location can be seen as an upside, be prepared for masses of tourists at this spot especially in peak season (no worries: in the night it gets calm enough and is not loud).

Location in center of Asakusa with many bars and restaurants around, short walk to metro. Very friendly staff with surprisingly decent english (very rare in Japan in my experience). Small but comfortable room with four futons on the floor. Although this place has no dining option nor breakfast, there is large sitting area with tables where one may rest and learn provided origami or caligraphy - nice touch.

This is not a real Ryokan like we’ve seen in other places, but rather a boutique hotel with some classic features. Price was inadequate to value, but this is Tokyo. Also bath concept strange where one books 30 minutes time slot in advance.

The man that is at the front desk is extremely kind to foreign guests and communicates to the best of his ability in English. He even took a picture of me outside of the hotel in front of one of the towers that you can see from the street leading up to the hotel. I got the traditional room with the tatami mats and bed. I was surprised how comfortable it was. And the location is right next to Sensoji, so it was nice to be able to just walk right to it from the hotel.

There was nothing wrong with my stay. The only possible negative would be that the bath is not an Onsen, but that is clearly stated in the description. But you should also be aware to listen for the telephone if you have reserved a bath time because it is a little quiet and you could miss it. But even if you do miss it like I did, he will just schedule the time after it.

Location is fantastic, stone's throw from Senso-ji and Asakusa Station. The half-hour private bath is wonderful. Room very spacious for price with comfortable futons and traditional feel. Staff very knowledgeable about local sights and food, and very accommodating to foreigners and incredibly helpful. Excellent value for money.

Bathroom slightly cramped, views from room so/so. There is (as advertised) no breakfast or other food on site, which detracts a little from the ryokan experience, but there are many excellent and affordable restaurants nearby that the staff pointed out to us.

Our stay at Ryokan Kamogawa Asakusa was a genuine Japanese retreat. The traditional room exuded tranquillity, featuring a comfortable futon bed for a restful sleep. The front desk staff was incredibly friendly, going above and beyond to assist us throughout our stay. We particularly enjoyed the common area, offering free drinks and traditional Japanese games. Overall, the hotel provided an authentic and memorable experience, perfect for those seeking a taste of Japanese hospitality. Highly recommended.

the bathroom was on the smaller side, which proved a bit inconvenient

Very friendly staff, also english speaking. Accomodating to already leave luggage prior to the (strict) earliest check-in time and to register a private time slot for the onsen at the premises. The common room downstairs is nicely equiped with Japanese crafts to try out (caligraphy, origami), as well as free coffee and tea. The nice traditional Japanese rooms are exactly as expected.

Nothing really. If I had to mention something; there is no breakfast facility with the ryokan, as also mentioned, but this is not a concern, as the neighborhood is abundant with places to eat.

We loved our stay in this hotel. Perfect location and very friendly staff. This is a great introduction to Japan's culture. I would totally recommend this place for anyone in their first trip to Japan or even Tokyo.

It's too bad the place doesn't have food and beverage service, but only upon pre-booking. As the little lounge is at street level and quaint, some fresh pastries with vending machine drinks would have been lovely too. But it's no big deal.
