    Floor space in rooms is small - more just something to be aware of in Tokyo.

    Really modern well equipped hotel, great use of space and the bunk beds were very helpful. As expected in a Tokyo hotel there’s little floor space but 3 of us in our room managed. Really liked the daybed in the window as well. Friendly and helpful staff and great value for money for staying with friends and family.

    Nothing. The place was great, loved it, if we come back to Ryogoku we will stay here again!

    The staff were all super friendly and helpful! <3 Ryogoku is a fantastic district, it is clean, historically and culturally rich, but also modern enough to cater for all your needs. Beautiful parks, interesting sites, and amazing food choices all around, from the little food bars by the tracks, to the tourist info centre between the station and the Kokugikan, and the independent restaurants dotted around the place. We loved every minute spent in Ryogoku. A short 5-6 minutes walk away from the station. Most (if not all?) rooms are overlooking the river, and on good days the rooftop bar is a great spot to eat your takeout dinner and have a few drinks with your family/group/friends. There are at least 5 convenience stores (both chains and independent) all around, within 2-5 minutes walk of the hotel. Free to use washing machine/dryer on 4th floor with English instructions. I would say the downside is that there is only one machine for the whole hotel, but we managed to use it twice in 10 days without having to wait for anyone, so I cannot call it an inconvenience. There is a little magnetic whiteboard to write your room number and finish time on so others know when to come back if they want to get on the next round. A very elegant and friendly solution. Kitchenette in the room was perfect for longer stay, we cooked breakfast every morning before heading out to ensure our fussy kids got at least one full meal in at the start of the day. Likewise you can knock up a quick dinner or warm up your takeout any time. Small fridge enough for a family of four for a week, it was even too big for what we needed. Separate toilet and bathroom so the family can coexist easily. Very good shower pressure, great quality water (your skin and hair will know the difference).

    There were no instructions on how to operate room temperature so was a little warm for a few days. Notified staff first person didn't fix it but the second girl very helpful came to our room and fixed it. The room was small but that is the norm for Tokyo.

    The staff was very friendly. The room was clean. The room is close to a train station and lots of restaurant's.

    Fantastic location close to the transit and right off the river path. The Ryogoku area offered enjoyable walks and interesting culture, along with many great restaurants. The staff was friendly and the coffee was delicious. They even had a thoughtful cooler of Japanese craft beers, which was a nice surprise. My family enjoyed our stay very much and we would highly recommend it!

    Not as many train lines as in some other areas but still easy to get to places.

    Fantastic design, like a tiny home it packs a lot into a small footprint. Really great design with double bed on bottom and single bunk on top, and the window lounge made a comfortable fourth bed. The room had everything you need and lots of mod cons. Close to river, was easy to walk to other areas and get to from airport. Nice and quiet area but plenty packed into the nearby streets.

    A slightly quieter area but that is also the charm. A great location if you attend a sumo tournament too. Still easy to walk to stations

    The room was a great layout for a family of 5 with a view of the river and open roof deck to enjoy a cold asahi. Superb supreme coffee in the morning. The staff went out of their way to help us with booking restaurants and booking taxis when needed.

    Rooms were smallish. Good for couples but a bit small for families. Floor space were very limited.

    Convenient location. Facilities were clean and is very new. Staff were friendly and almost all could communicate in English (not perfect but above average for Japan). Laundry (self service) was free.

    We had a triple room for 2 adults and 2 kids because that was all that was available. Coming to Japan for skiing with quite a few bags it was tight squeeze but that’s our fault, not Favs. The room is very comfortable and makes the most of the space.

    Fav have thought of everything to make a comfortable stay. The shower is fabulous and beds super comfortable. Everything is automated/qr code which makes check in/out so quick and convenient but had staff on hand to direct us. Even when we checked in at 1am after a delayed flight. The coffee is great and it’s a very friendly place in an interesting area.

    It was a lot smaller than what the photos showed. Small room size is not uncommon in Tokyo but the photos were a little misleading. The cleaning schedule did not suit our schedule or needs. They pick-up trash by request but only clean the room for one day (they scheduled it the day before we left, we were there for 4 days). Even after they cleaned the room, the floors were not thoroughly cleaned or mopped (it was not carpeted).

    Loved the cafe downstairs! So convenient. Coffee and bakery items were good! The location in Sumida is convenient. Close proximity to Ryogoku station on Chuo-Sobu line and Higashi-Nihombashi station on the Asakusa line. Lots of restaurants, konbini and grocery within walking distance. The Ryogoku sumo stadium and museum is close by. Good view of the Sumida river.
