Asakusa View Hotel Review

This upper-bracket, modern hotel in the Asakusa area looks out of place rising 28 stories above this famous district's older buildings. Still, it's a good place to stay if you want to be in Tokyo's old downtown but don't want to sacrifice any creature comforts. The midsize guest rooms are pleasant, with contemporary furnishings and bay windows that let in plenty of sunshine (and smaller windows that can be opened, a rarity in Tokyo). Rooms facing the front (east) have views over the famous Sensoji Temple, but those on the top floor facing west have views of Mount Fuji on clear days (mostly in winter).

Facilities:
4 restaurants; 2 bars; lounge; executive-level rooms; 20m indoor pool w/retractable roof (fee: ¥3,150); room service

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
