Shitamachi Museum Annex Tours and Activities

This was our favorite hotel in Japan. Great location, fantastic property, and very helpful staff.

EXCELLENT location for getting around, and food. Safe area. I will not hesitate to book this place again. Washer and dryer (in one) in the room with laundry detergent provided means that every night you can throw in your clothes before going to bed and when you wake up your clothes are dry - no pile up of dirty clothes and you can pack minimally. No food at the hotel, that's the only downside. Staff is good. Beds are comfortable. AC is cold. 4 of us stayed in the Japanese family room and the beds on the floor were comfortable. While staying here we made another booking to stay an extra week because we were so happy with it.

This is a really nice room. I only stayed for a couple days but I would have been very comfortable here for an extended stay. The kitchen is very well equipped - you get a fridge, toaster, microwave, kettle, induction hob, pots, pans, rice cooker, cups (hot and cold), plates, bowls, utensils, even paper towels, and plastic wrap. The room also has an in-unit washer/dryer, and even a little vacuum. There's also a large table which was nice (many hotels, even aparthotels have tiny tables). The room I had included a bunk and a couch, and a "king" sized bed (which is two twin mattresses stuck together, but that wasn't a problem). The bed was firm but comfortable. The staff was also very friendly and helpful. The hotel is located in between Akihabara station and Asakusabashi station, so you'll be walking for a few minutes to get on the train. It's convenient to Senso-ji, Skytree, and Akihabara. There are also konbini's, a little grocery store, and plenty of restaurants nearby.
