“We greatly enjoyed our stay at the hotel MONday at Asakusa. On the day we checked in, we arrived a couple hours earlier than expected. The staff was very understanding and offered to keep our luggage in the lobby until it was time to check-in at 3:00 PM. This allowed us to explore the surrounding area and eat ramen for lunch at a nearby restaurant on Hisago St. which is right next door to the hotel. Thanks to the staff, we didn’t have to worry about where our luggage was since they kept it safe. We noticed other guests did the same thing and left their suitcases in the care of the employees. If you have a chance, we recommend spending at least one morning to enjoy the breakfast buffet. You need to buy a ticket for this meal, but guests may purchase it on the same day. Our favorite food items at the buffet were the tamagoyaki (rolled egg omelette), hitsumabushi (eel and rice), noodles, and miso soup! There were also plenty of other delicious Western-styled food items available as well such as sausage, bacon, scrambled eggs, cereal, and pastries. Another reason why we liked hotel MONday at Asakusa is because it is walking distance from several different landmarks in Tokyo: it is only a 5-minute walk to the Sen-sōji Temple, Kaminarimon Gate, and the Nakamise street shops and food vendors. We were shocked after walking a short distance from the hotel and saw the temple on our right. That’s how close it is. Additionally, it is less than a 10-minute

Easy access, friendly staff, and close to anime town and a couple of the subway stations. Highly recommend it.

Overall, very satisfied with our stay. Everything was clean and washer/dryer combo was great since we packed light. Location was also great and close to train station. They also provided amenities such as toothbrush, laundry detergent, and there was also housekeeping once during g our stay.
