HOTEL AMANEK Asakusa Ekimae

So close to the A18 metro stop, which meant direct service from Haneda airport. The view from the window and the rooftop, fabulous! Fresh towels everyday. A little fridge in the room and a microwave and small dining area downstairs to eat our convenience store dinners! Friendly staff. Clean rooms and lobby. (Someone reported a toenail in their room when they check in, when we had a similar looking thing, I looked closer. . . .it was a feather from the comforter!) close to all things Asakusa. And did I mention, literally 1 minute to the metro. 😁

the room was a decent size for a solo traveller, it was clean and comfortable. I loved the rooftop terrace and the awesome view, the hotel is conveniently located near subway stations that make reaching other places in Tokyo very easy, there are also convenience stores located within a few minutes of the hotel. The hotel is also only a 10 minute walk from Sensoji Temple, making it easy to beat crowds in the morning or take a lovely stroll in the evening when it’s lit up. The staff at this hotel were also very friendly and helpful, I would be happy to stay here again!

The direct line of Keisei SkyAccess from Narita Airport about $12++ for a 45mins ride and up the elevator via A2b exit was FANTASTIC. This is Asakusa Station. It DOES NOT connect to GINZA LINE, that you'll walk about 5mins away to enter through a different Metro close-by. Still the best if you're into great shopping in GINZA 😊 Ni It's also near to Toei Asakusa Station for Spaxia X to Nikko/Tochigi was a plus point. Family Mart across the street, and other eateries along the same side of the street were great options. The front desk staff were fluent in English and such a relief for non-Japanese speaker that struggled to communicate - what a relief. Thank you so much for these lovely ladies Zhari & Ito-san, who witnessed my struggles when I first checked in. The gentlemen were great too,truly. Loaned us the umbrella was such help when it decided to shower that day!! They're friendly and approachable. The queen sized bed on raised platform with bottom storage was great. Loved the roof top overseeing Sumida River (take the cruise too, why not, right?) The view of "gold giant piece" (sorry I don't know what it's called as I share it now (Go google it!) and Tokyo Tower - superb most especially at night - 🥰😍🤩 Loved the ¥500 every morning cup of brewed coffee and choices of muffins, each get two. Instant coffee for refills if need be. Microwave in lobby, waiting area has WIFI, comfy seating with chairs/ lounge chairs. I loved the extra pillows, fridge, water boiler and coffee/tea mix in the room.

The reception staff were extremely helpful especially after leaving some medicine behind at a previous hotel and its subsequent retrieval in a timely manner. The hotel is clean and situated at a handy location near the Tobu and Metro Asakusa stations and has a small roof terrace with great views across the Sumida river to the Tokyo Skytree as well as being only 5 minutes from Senso-Ji temple.

The hotel location is perfect. A walking distance from all Asakusa attractions and any subway or bus station. Just facing the hotel there is a bus that takes 15 min to Tokyo Station. And next to it there is asakusa subway station. It was convenient for all our trips. The staff speak English and can perfectly help you in directions and in anything you need. They were friendly and nice. The room is cleaned and is equipped with necessary amenities.
