Playsis East Tokyo

The location has a gorgeous evening view view of Tokyo Skytree from the small rooftop lounge. The building is dated and few amenities are available. But, it is clean and the bathroom set up was great—three separate spaces for toilet, sink, and shower.

The room is good enough just for sleeping. The good thing about the hotel it is very close to Asakusa main district not too far to walk. Very close to the tourist attractions, eating, drinking, shopping and train station. A very good location and the price is affordable.

Very close to Asakusa. Around 5min walk to both Asakusa area and nearest subway station. A couple of combini near by. Building has elevator which is a plus. The view from the rooftop is spectacular. Stayed with family of 4 and place was superb and all amenities fit the description. Front desk staff is very accommodating. Neighbourhood feels safe.

Very nice room, plenty big enough. Staff were kind and friendly. I liked the roof top patio to sit and look out over the city. It was a nice place.

Fantastic place to stay that is a 10 min walk to the Skytree as well as the famous Asakusa area for great shopping and near a really cool temple. Great value!

Our family stayed here for 5 nights in October 2023. The hotel is reasonably priced, the location is great (near Sky Tree, train stations, restaurants, convenience stores etc), and in the most part the staff were very helpful and super friendly. We did have one big BAD experience though!! We arrived at the hotel expecting to be checked into our interconnecting family room that we had booked a couple of months previously from Australia, but were told by the staff that we had to have seperate rooms for the first night, and then move all our gear from one of the rooms to the interconnecting room the next evening. The staff were very apologetic about it and were not sure why this had happened! Luckily I had a print out of our booking stating we had booked and paid for interconnecting rooms, so they called the manager, who arrived about 45 minutes later - this is where our complaint starts....!! The manager was VERY rude and abrupt as soon as he walked into the lobby and said that we should have known about it because he had emailed the 3rd party who it was booked through - I reminded him that these companies deal with thousands of booking, and that he should have emailed me direct, but regardless of this, it should not be happening as we had booked and paid for our interconnecting rooms months earlier!! He abruptly blamed a computer error, and rudely asked did we still want to stay there or go and stay somewhere else...!! (as we are sitting in the lobby very tired after a long trip, with 3 young children....). So, just a gentle warning about the manager.......... The rest of the staff were so lovely and helpful, and as I mentioned earlier, the hotel itself is nice and clean and in a great location. The view from the roof is amazing. Just be careful of the manager from Fawlty Towers.......!!

Overall a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Its not the most glamorous place but thats not the point; it simply has everything you need. My only advice would be to have cleaner floors, and that the couch beds were a little uncomfortable. Other than that, the price was right and the connecting room is convenient for large groups, a rarity in Japan.
