Find Ryokans in Tokyo, Japan

We were only there for one night but I will definitely return. It was well situated and afforded easy access to the city. A fabulous location if you're intending on heading to Tsukiji Fish Market as the hotel is on the Hibiya line! The hotel is new (it has only open for 6 months I believe), clean and very comfortable for a city hotel. As someone who lives in Japan, it will become my new 'Tokyo hotel'!

Great find in Tokyo's old town. 2 mins walk from the metro station and under 10 mins walk to the temple. The room, although small (but bigger than a lot of Tokyo hotel rooms), was clean and traditionally decorated: tatami mats etc. The staff were really friendly and gave excellent recommendations for bars and restaurants nearby. The breakfast, although simple, made for a good start to the day. If you're looking for luxury, you may want to look elsewhere, however, for a great location and value for money - look no further! We'd definitely stay again.

Stayed here with 2 friends from 18th to 20th Jan 2017. Got upgraded to a bigger room. Cause from the pictures i saw at Agoda website the room we've booked was smaller than this. Good location(near JR line), friendly staff, value for money...what more could we ask for? :) All in all i like this place and would recommend my friends to stay here and also i would stay here again if i go to Tokyo next time. Don't understand all the negatives reviews....if u want a 5 star hotel quality then stay in a 5 star hotel. If you cant afford one then shut the ...... Arigatou gozaimasu! ;)

The stay was even better than expected! The hotel is brand new we were the first people, who could sleep there. The staff was incredibly friendly with their traditional japanese clothing even if their English is not the best. But we also met the owner, who has good English skills and is a very nice guy. The best part at this hotel are the traditional rooms with futon bed, and the amazing toilet and shower! We also liked the kimono pyjamas which they offer to wear for free during your stay. We will definitively go back when we are in Tokyo again!

We were a couple, students from Australia, travelling on a bit of a budget but we decided to spend a few nights here at the start of our week in Tokyo so that we could stay in a traditional room. The girl at the front desk was super lovely, spoke english, and organised a last-minute breakfast for us for the morning after we arrived. On first entering the room we thought it was very sweet and traditional (tatami flooring, futons and paper screens) but then we opened the window and it was CRAZY - our room had a perfect view, overlooking the old-school shops on Nakamise street with the lit-up Tokyo Skytree in the distance. The girl at the desk gave us a card we could use to come in after-hours so when we first arrived we headed out sometime after 11pm and went to a ramen shop nearby and explored Donkihote. The next day we wandered around Nakamise street and checked out Sensoji, the shrine at the end of the street. The day after that we walked to Kappabashidori (the cookware/fake food district). I guess what I'm saying is that the location is just perfect, public transport is very easy to get to but you could just as easily spend a couple of days sightseeing within walking distance. Fair warning, do print out a map or have google maps on hand because the Japanese addressing system felt pretty counterintuitive and we did get a little lost finding the place. Asakusa is officially my favourite place in Tokyo and it's largely thanks to our stay at Ryokan Asakusa Mikawaya Honten. Take at least one night to buy cheap umeshu/sake/suntory highball from the convenience store, have a really hot bath, and sit in your yukatas watching terrible japanese game shows.

I really loved this hotel. The room was in Japanese style, with futon and low table (though astoundingly large for a Tokyo hotel room!), but with an en-suite western-style bathroom - and fast in-room wifi. The location is fantastic: in gentle Asakusa, two minutes from the Sensoji temple complex and Nakamise Dori, but also right around busy urban streets. And only about 5 minutes from a subway station. Best of all are the staff, who speak excellent English (but nevertheless show great patience to foreigners who insist upon practicing rusty Japanese) and are incredibly friendly and willing to help. This is without question one of the best hotels I've stayed at in Japan, or really anywhere, and I'll definitely come back again.

First time in Tokyo and loved the idea of staying in a Ryokan. Ikebukuro district was great for restaurants open late and a younger crowd. Hotel is a 5 minute walk to the JR train station. We used the Yamanoto line to get everywhere in Tokyo. Most of the staff was very friendly and welcoming. Room was comfortable and clean but had a strange smell to it. Would still recommend it to others.

Staying at this Ryokan was amazing. Reminiscent of beautiful older homes in Japan with many beautiful features. Our room was so large and comfortable, the wifi and air conditioning worked well, the beds were comfortable. We had an excellent traditional breakfast on the day we were flying out. It is an older house so there is some wear to the building which I find charming, please do not judge this Ryokan to the ultramodern hotels, instead recognize that it incorporates elements of traditional Japan that are difficult to find. The staff were all so helpful and accommodating. We used the family traditional bath every day which was amazing to have a traditional sento available to us with hot hot water to soak in which helped us after long days in the summer heat. I would encourage folks to cab it with their luggage, the walk from nearest Kasuga station has a huge hill and no elevator. Also, you can request a cab for when you leave- do this a day in advance, same for bfast.

this was my first time visiting japan and i asked a friend who had visited previously if he could recommend a ryokan for me as i was keen to stay in a traditional japanese hotel. my friend recommended the ryokan kamogawa in the asakusa region of tokyo, as he had stayed there previously on his travels. i am very pleased with his suggestion, as i had a fantastic stay. the staff were very polite and helpful, the room was just what i was hoping for, very simply and seemingly traditional (i say this as obviously i have nothing to benchmark against on the traditional front). my regret i that i did not have a chance to use the bath, but this was my own fault. the hotel is located right in the heart of asakusa, which is a very beautiful part of tokyo.

the stay at Andon Ryokan was superb! the rooms were really clean and cosy and even though it's a shared bathroom, the toilets were really clean as well. when we just arrived to check in we were warmly welcomed with hot tea, towel and some sweet snacks (this is definitely a plus as we travelled in april and the weather was super cold!). the hotel also provides a variety of tea which are available 24/7 in the common lounge area. the location of this hotel is really convenient too! near Minowa station and the directions given were really clear hence we managed to locate the hotel with no issues at all. the best part of staying in this ryokan would be the service. they may rate themselves as a two star hotel but the service is definitely six star! the hotel staff are friendly and helpful. they have quite a good command of English as well hence there are no communication problems at all. the only minor drawback would perhaps be the lock of the room. they use a normal room key instead of key cards and we had trouble locking and unlocking our room door as the key always gets stuck. but aside from that, the whole stay at Andon was a pleasant one. will definitely go back to stay again if I wanna stay in a ryokan in tokyo!

We stayed at Asakusa Ryokan Toukaisou Hotel for four nights and really enjoyed it. While our room was on the small side and not the cleanest, it was very affordable and the staff were particularly helpful and spoke excellent English. The hotel is in the Asakusa area which has a number of interesting sites and the nearby metro stations make it easy to travel to other areas of Tokyo. Further, you can take the metro from Asakusa Station direct to Narita airport. Although breakfast was not included, there were plenty of good restaurants and convenience stores nearby. Finally, it is near a public onsen which we experienced on our last night in Japan. Overall, we recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again the next time we visit Tokyo.

Close to Sendagi Sta. (Tokyo Metro) + Yanaka Ginza and a good walk to Nippori Sta. (JR & Keisei for Narita) + Nezu Shrine, Annex Katsutaro Ryokan is an affordable ryokan room experience and a great alternative to hostel dorm rooms and capsule hotels for solo travelers. This is my second trip to Tokyo and my sleep was so much better this time. Even though it’s further north in the map of greater Tokyo, I didn’t have any problems at all getting to the places I wanted to visit (even far ones like Shinjuku or Odaiba) because of the 2 nearby stations and bus stop. Will stay here again and recommend to friends

Pros: Very close to train stations mainly the Yamanote line which goes into Shibuya, harajuku, Shinjuku. At the same station you can take the connecting line to the asakusa Line which can take you to the tsukiji market or haneda airport. Staff is very friendly and nice. Cons: close to the stations so you can hear trains at night although it's not too loud. Shared showers can mean you might have to wait a bit of they are all occupied

This place is one of the considerable choice for the backpackers who are looking for good price, location and spending night life in Tokyo. I think for the place where it is located, you can walk just only 1 km to Shibuya train station and also shopping around one of the best in Town shopping center, Shibuya. Moreover, for people who need to spend night life and make some friends with the local Japanese, this Hotel is the best choice for drinking at night around Shibuya (Womb, Tsutaya o east) and walk to sleep. Besides, for who want to spend the night at Roppongi, this place is also seriously considerable because it is quit close to Roppongi and you can grab the taxi traveling to there about 2000 yen which quit cheap. Room is nice and comfortable, this hotel provides a daily cleaning in the morning and the janitor does her best for each room. The owner is very nice and can speak English fluently.

Tama Ryokan is a sweet little place with a good location. The owners are kind, helpful and good natured. In the midst of all of the concrete, it was fun to stay in an older building with character. The price is great for the location. It is an older building and the walls are thin. I found it charming and true to Japanese living, others might find it inconvenient. Note to people with allergies (like me) -- it is an older, wood building and there was a must in the air that affected me. People with out allergies would probably not notice, but I am fairly sensitive. I moved to a room with a window that I kept open (it was a very warm October) and I was fine after that. Overall, its a great place with hosts that care about creating a good experience. Highly recommended.

My 2 night stay at Tadaima was one of the best experiences in my 2 week trip across Japan. It's located in an older part of Tokyo, which encompasses 300 bars and restaurants. The place itself is very quaint and very clean, both of which I appreciate. But what I'll remember most is the staff. Shinji is a terrific host, always happy to answer any question I had about the area, the Japanese language/culture or Japan in general. We had hours of interesting and entertaining conversations. The same goes for Airi. She's a very impressive young woman and I really enjoyed our talks as well. Rumi was a total sweetheart and Keisuke is super sharp and funny. I'm already planning my return to Japan, around a year from now. I hope to visit my friends at Tadaima again!

We really enjoyed our 2 nights stay. Love the feel of traditional Japanese home/ryokan, the tatami room, the futon, everything! And Satoshi-san was very nice to us. Superb location to train stations (big thumbs up to Tsukuba Express!), konbini/Family Mart are all very near to Taito Ryokan. For Muslim travellers, Origami restaurant, Naritaya ramen, Sekai Cafe & little shops in Asakusa are all within walking distance. We wish that we can stay longer. Definitely will book Taito Ryokan for our next visit. Note:This ryokan is suitable for backpackers and anyone who don't mind staying in a very traditional Japanese home.

I had only booked one night at this hotel and wished that I had stayed here for my entire trip to Tokyo. The location and value of the hotel cannot be beaten. It's only a 5 minute walk from JR Shinjuku station and walking distance to all the different attractions in Shinjuku. Furthermore, the staff was extremely nice and allowed me to store my gigantic suitcase at their place for 2 days even though I had no other reservations at the hotel. Will definitely stay here again on my next visit to Tokyo. This hotel does have a curfew, but if you are running late, just give them a call and they will wait for you.

This place is about 10 minutes walk from JR Koiwa station. Koiwa is outside the main Tokyo loop, so do factor that in - you are not going to be living in a tourist hub of any sort. The ryokan itself is fabulous, run by an old couple who are always available for any help. The rooms are immaculate, and the fixtures are sparkling clean and look very new. A couple of standout items - the WiFi is extremely fast! And the bathroom is excellent..seriously one of the best and most relaxing shower + tubs in our entire Japan trip

I really enjoyed my stay! :) A great deal for budget travellers. 1. The Host He is super friendly, helpful and caring! The best host I've ever met in Japan. :) He speaks fluent English, explains everything well when you check in, and is helpful if you have any questions! He even helped me carry my bulky luggage to the station when I left! I'm gonna miss the host for sure! 2. Accomodation The bed is comfortable and the Ryokan was quiet that I slept very well! They cleaned my room every day. A few convenience stores around and a supermarket at the station. There are also a fridge, a microwave, a cosy common room and a private hot spring bath. 3. Location It is located at Miami Senju that is very close to Asakusa. There are Metro and JR stations so it's so convenient no matter you are heading to downtown or further places. 5-8 mins walk from the station. Worthy if you wish to stay in somewhere quiet. Will definitely choose this Ryokan again! :)
