"Just south of the city's busiest shopping area, 200 m southwest of the Higashi-Ginza subway station, this property, built in 1987, is behind Matsuzakaya department store and near the Kabuki theater." Full review

The staff is attentive and well-trained, and management goes so far as to publish tourist leaflets to major attractions, which are given away free at the concierge desk (although placing special requests in advance may be difficult as the minimal staff is quite busy).

Travel + Leisure
"Overlooking one of Tokyo's most famous shrines, the Asakusa View is a classic downtown Tokyo hotel, complete with an impressive marble lobby and crystal chandeliers." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"As the name suggests, the views of neighboring rooftops and nearby Senso-ji Temple from the comfortable Japanese-style rooms are of an older Tokyo."
Time Out
"With its uniformed staff and marble lobby somewhat incongruent with this downtown, working-class neighbourhood, the Asakusa View boasts a fairly high standard of accommodation." Full review
Fodor's
"Upscale Western-style accommodations are rare in Asakusa, so the Asakusa View pretty much has this end of the market to itself." Full review
