The hotel is very close to Senso-ji Temple, with subway stations and convenience stores right around the corner. There are also plenty of dining options nearby, and it's quiet. I'd highly recommend staying here for first-time visitors to Tokyo. However, the hotel rooms are truly tiny. While you can see Senso-ji Temple and the Tokyo Skytree from the room, that's about it. There's no need to specifically book a room on either end, as you can also see the views from the corridor. Plus, the layout of those end rooms is quite odd, and they seem even smaller than the other rooms. Furthermore, the duvet felt quite damp, and I wasn't sure if it had been changed. On our first day, despite opting for housekeeping service, the room was not cleaned.

The location is excellent, right by Senso-ji Temple, with plenty of dining options nearby. Downstairs, you'll find a Uniqlo and a cafe (I'm referring to it as 'Little Red Bird' as I'm unsure of its official English name). The Hollywood room was quite spacious, and breakfast exceeded our expectations.

Response from Property: Thank you very much for staying at the Richmond Hotel Asakusa. We are delighted to receive your perfect rating. We are also honored that you found our hotel's location so satisfying. With Nakamise-dori Shopping Street during the day and the izakayas of Hoppy Street late at night, the hotel offers a 24-hour entertainment. We would be honored if you could fully enjoy the charm of Asakusa and rest assured that we would be happy to serve you a comfortable breakfast. We are honored to receive your praise for the buffet-style breakfast. We trust that you enjoyed a wide variety of Japanese and Western dishes. We are pleased to have created a pleasant morning for you. Thank you very much for your valuable review. We look forward to seeing you again.

If you're a couple traveling with a child, I wouldn't recommend booking this compact double room. While the view is fantastic – our room (typically ending in '02' on each floor) had two windows offering direct views of both the Skytree and Senso-ji Temple – the room layout was absolutely ridiculous. There was nowhere to put our luggage, the bathroom was right next to the bed, and our child had absolutely no space to move around or play. A crucial tip, and I cannot stress this enough: always bring your own slippers when visiting Japan! The hotel's slippers are reused, and while they appear very clean, I still had a slight reservation about using them.

Response from Property: Thank you for choosing to stay at the Richmond Hotel Asakusa and for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We regret that our Deluxe Double Room did not fully meet your needs, especially for families with children. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the layout and luggage storage. We have noted your feedback and will use it as a reference for future room type descriptions and planning. We are pleased to receive your positive feedback regarding the view from the room window; the view of Tokyo Skytree and Sensoji Temple is a reason many guests choose this room type. Regarding slippers, we currently use environmentally friendly, reusable slippers, which are cleaned and disinfected daily. We understand that each guest has different usage habits, and we have carefully noted your suggestions and will use them as a reference for service improvement. Thank you for your valuable feedback and we look forward to providing you with a more comfortable stay in the future.

Richmond Hotel Asakusa boasts an excellent location, thoughtfully designed rooms, and fantastic views overlooking Sensoji Temple, Tokyo Tower, and the Asahi Beer Hall (Golden Flame). Right downstairs, you'll find an abundance of shopping and dining options, including Uniqlo, Muji, Don Quijote, Ichiran Ramen, and popular cafes – truly everything you could ask for. I am extremely satisfied and will definitely stay here again on my next visit.

The room was very clean and super close to Senso-ji Temple. The surrounding area is bustling with shops and restaurants, and transportation is very convenient. Highly recommended! There's a Uniqlo right outside, and I even found a customized item that usually has a long queue in Osaka, but here I could just walk in and get it without waiting or time limits.

The hotel boasts an excellent location, not far from the subway station. Senso-ji Temple is just a short walk downstairs, and Asakusa Station (for trains to Nikko) is also conveniently close. There are plenty of delicious little eateries right downstairs. The rooms are quite small and the facilities are a bit dated, but they are well-maintained. Check-out is at 11 AM. We were delayed by over half an hour due to jet lag and were fined 50 RMB per room. I found the hotel's policy on this to be a bit petty. The windows in the corridor offer a view overlooking Senso-ji Temple. What's rather odd is that I booked two rooms on Ctrip, one large and one small, but upon arrival, I was told they were identical. We just made do with it. Overall, it's only suitable for a brief transit stay in Tokyo.

Response from Property: We are deeply grateful for your choice of the Richmond Hotel Asakusa. Thank you for your highly positive review of our hotel. As you mentioned, our location is well-received by our guests, with numerous tourist attractions, a variety of restaurants, and abundant shopping nearby. However, we sincerely apologize for any inconveniences you may have experienced during your stay. First, regarding the late check-out fee, as you mentioned, our hotel charges a late fee for check-outs significantly beyond the scheduled time. This is because the room needs to be cleaned for the next guest, and a late check-out can hinder this process. Nevertheless, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. Furthermore, regarding your reservation, there may have been a misunderstanding regarding your reservation, as you may have reserved a double room and a single room. We deeply regret that we failed to meet your expectations. We will strive to improve our service. Thank you again for choosing the Richmond Hotel Asakusa. We sincerely look forward to seeing you again.

Typical for Tokyo, the room was quite small, but it was generally clean and the service was good. All disposable amenities are provided and can be conveniently picked up from the lobby. The main highlight is its fantastic location right by Senso-ji Temple. The area downstairs is very vibrant, and you can easily walk to all the temple's attractions. It's also within walking distance of the Tokyo Skytree. Considering its location in Tokyo, it offers excellent value for money.

The location is excellent, with a very lively and bustling neighborhood. You can find virtually any food you desire, and Don Quijote is conveniently located right next door. Senso-ji Temple is just a 10-minute walk away, and the path is lined with many unique shops to browse. The 'Hollywood' room type wasn't as spacious as I had imagined, and the layout felt a bit inefficient. The separate toilet compartment seemed to waste a fair amount of space. However, we were still able to open two 26-inch suitcases simultaneously without too much trouble.

Awesome location - hotel is located in a prime area, able to see the temple from your hotel room level and situated in between a few train stations. Uniqlo is next door, Donki is within 5 mins walk, and many famous eateries are nearby! Room is also slightly bigger than other hotels. Will definitely recommend.

The hotel is in desperate need of renovation. The room and its furniture are all worn out. It is nearly impossible to take a proper shower if you’re taller than 170 cm. The housekeeping is the worst I have ever seen. They don’t wash the cups or make the bed properly. We even found long hairs on the bathroom walls and floor. We informed the reception in the morning, but there was still no proper cleaning afterward. We ended up collecting the hairs ourselves and throwing them away. The breakfast is good, with enough variety. It would be even better if they included some cheese and local specialties. We stayed for 7 nights, and it became a bit boring since it was exactly the same every day. The location is good. It’s about a 10-minute walk to the metro station, with 4–5 supermarkets nearby, and just a minute away from Senso-ji.
Response from Property: Thank you for choosing Richmond Hotel Asakusa.We are very sorry that we could not provide you with a comfortable room for your trip. We will share with our cleaning staff about the cleanliness of the water and the rooms, and will do our best to prepare comfortable rooms for our guests.We will also share information and opinions with our staff to see if there is anything we can do to improve our services in other areas.However, thank you very much for your satisfaction with our location. We hope you enjoyed the historical atmosphere of Asakusa. We hope that this trip was memorable for you.Thank you for taking the time to write this review.We sincerely look forward to welcoming you again.
