OTHER SPACE asakusa — Hotel in Tokyo

The rooms are small and basically they are all copy paste in this price range. Only difference here is that the beds are rock hard. This is however the second time that I noticed that hospitality does not match Japanese culture. They pretend to be nice and humble but they are quite sadistic. We extended our stay after one night sleeping there and we indicated we were exhausted by jetlag. I think this is where they saw our weakness and focused on making our stay as uncomfortable as possible from now on, making sure that rest was not an option. First step is to make sure the guest cannot stay in the room. Second step is to make the guest packs his bag. Third step is to humiliate him by going through the checkout at the reception all over again. Then if he tries to defend himself they pretend mercy and sound like you owe them. Instead they say be ready in 30 minutes to change rooms. Instead. They will keep you waiting. Extremely nasty strategy. They took away all our chances of rest even though we paid 60% more for the second night and they need to clean an extra room The rooms are small and basically they are all copy paste in this price range.

Our family of 3 stayed in Hotel K3 Asakusa for about a week in early August.

Room: 1 double bed and 1 single bed, beds are comfortable and there are luggage space under the bed. Overall space is adequate. Wash basin within the room space, and individual toilet and shower, that makes it very convenient as not everyone needs to wait in using toilet/shower, etc.

Facility: Minimalism yet all you need as a traveler/tourist, there's a small cafe/bar at the ground floor. They serves local Sumidagawa craft beer, highly recommended for those who likes beer. Breakfast is not included in our room rate, but there's a mini convenient shop and small kitchen within the hotel cafe, highly recommend to grab some food in the morning before you head out, i.e. as I learned there're not many place open for breakfast in the morning in Tokyo, if there's, chances are it will be crowded, so, take the opportunity to sit down and enjoy your simple breakfast in the hotel.

If you're driving, there's a car park attached to the hotel (but with limited car height/size, so do check), alternatively, there're multiple pay car park within 200m radius.

Also, there's a rent a bicycle facility next to the hotel car park, can't recall the name of the app needed to rent a bike, but definitely convenient.

Location: approximately 15~20 minutes walk to the different Asakusa line stations, with different path you can choose, all/most on flat road, so no issue dragging your luggage. My favorite path is to cut through the Asakusa Shrine, makes the journey "feel" shorter.

Getting to the hotel from Narita airports takes approximately 1.15 hrs by train directly + another 20 minutes walk.

Asakusa is a very vibrant neighborhood, there's no issue to find food and shopping. Do check out the Asakusa Rox area, there're multiple...

Firstly, I would like to preface that the original reason I booked this hotel was due to its location - central to everything I enjoy in Asakusa thus, 5 stars; however, the rooms are very small and narrow to share between three family members. If you are planning to visit and stay with two family members then the room size is not too underwhelming, but for three not recommended. The website stated each room has its own laundry machine, not sure if is interpretation error, but there was no laundry in each room. In travelling to Japan, we have always packed light, in terms of clothing, and utilize the laundry service in the room so we leave plenty of room for souvenirs. Disappointed that there was no laundry machine in the room. The beds were not very comfortable and the bed arrangement was too close to stretch out in our sleep especially during our morning ventures. We only booked for one night so it was tolerable in regards to room size and lack of laundry machine. For room rating, unfortunately, I can only provide 3 stars but would give it 3.5 for the three bottle of waters provided daily (this is based on how many members are staying). For service, I alloted 4 stars given that the cafe servers and the front desk personnel were kind and quite helpful. Overall, I would still recommend this hotel for certain amenities- it's location and personnel/staff - wish I could give it 3.5 stars not just 3 but there was not an option...
