Agora Place Asakusa - Tokyo

Good place to stay.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Friendly and helpful staff. The room is nice and clean. Some of the basic amenities you get free at hotels are sold but if you have been traveling around, you probably already have them such as soap, toothbrush, etc. The location was perfect for my objective to visit Senso-ji for the hanamatsuri. Conveniece store is right around the corner. Sky Tree […] is visible down the road. The only downside is if you have heavy luggage, there's no escalator or elevator at the closest train station so be prepared to go light. Read more

I was unimpressed, and disappointed. Compared to other business class hotels I've stayed in in Tokyo, the room was smaller and the amenities lacking. The bathroom was small and had an odd carpet-like flooring which smelled of urine. The sink/mirror in such a narrow space, couldn't fit shoulders in to wash face.

I was very unimpressed with this hotel. The lobby looks new, but my room was in poor condition with a burned out light. The room was extremely small, withbarely enough room to pull out the desk chair. No tea or coffee, but included hotpot for boiling water and empty fridge. The bathroom had no tub, but raised shower. Distance between shower and wall […] so narrow, but contained sink and narrow mirror. Couldn't fit shoulders to wash my face in the sink. Bathroom floor had some kind of quick-dry carpet, and smelled of urine. Not worth price compared to other same-class hotels. Read more

Clean but small rooms that is perfect for the single traveller on a budget. May be too small for 2 persons. Convenient access to Tokyo subway and a few blocks from Asakusa Toei station for direct access to Narita. Channels on TV are frustrating as the few English channels have text ads popping up. Unfortunately, they don't have more non-smoking rooms […] and hence, smoking rooms stench can be a little annoying - but you can always open the windows slightly to let some cold, fresh air in. Would stay again if on a budget but book early to get the best prices and a non-smoking room. Read more

Stayed for 5 nights with just my son and I. The hotel was clean and the staff was very friendly and spoke good english as well with daily cleaning. The room was a semi double, very small not much room for luggage or walking but that's how japan is. The walls and fixtures were clean, looked new and it has free WiFi but it is not very reliable for it […] is hard to connect and stay connected. There is no soap or shampoo in the room; if you want them you'll have to buy it at the front desk along with extra pillows and towels. The hotel is walking distance to Temples, Sky Tree Tower, shopping centers and tour districts. Also close proximity to metro trains which take you anywhere in Tokyo. Restaurant inside hotel but it is a bit pricey then again so is the rest of Tokyo. Definitely recommend. Read more

Clean, comfortable hotel in an area with lots of shops and restaurants. Within 60 seconds walk of Tawaramachi subway station. Room was small, but we knew that going in were perfectly happy. Would definitely stay here again.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Our room was newly renovated. Everything was clean and new looking. Room was small, but this is usual in Tokyo and we didn't spend too much time in the room anyway. I wouldn't recommend the room we had for more than 2 people. They might have more room options available. Hotel staff was very helpful and held our luggage for 4 days while we traveled […] to Kyoto and Osaka. Read more

Very nice hotel, located in the good area to walk around. The sink was in the very small space, I had hard time to wash my face.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Great location, newly renovated hotel. The room and the bed was clean. The bathroom needs improvement.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Very new and clean, next to Tawaramachi station, if you have JP rail pass you can get to Ueno station, from there take train to Tawaramachi and the one way ticket fee is only 160 yen ( like 2 dls), if you want to walk from Ueno station to Hotel it takes about 15 minutes. From Hotel you can explore Asakusa and Ueno areas walking, skytree tokyo tower […] is in a walking distance as well. Hotel has two machines that are washer and dryer (two in one) and cost about 500 yen, soap is not included but you can buy at the lobby or take small soap packages with you. bathroom was spotless and fancy, soap, shampoo, tooth paste and brushes etc were provided, slippers too.If you have a foreign debit card you can withdraw money at the post office next to Tawaramachi station, ( local banks wont take visa or master remember this) Rooms have an small fridge and there is a convenient local small supermarket ahead of the post office on the same sidewalk to get milk, cereal, bread etc, dont go to the 7 eleven store close by because is at least twice expensive than local stores. I would stay here again, room is small but this is normal in Japan. My husband, my baby and I shared one full bed and worked for us. My parents enjoyed their room too. We would stay again! Read more

hotel is in fantastic condition in a good location in asakura.

very clean, great for the price, decent location, would stay at this hotel again

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I suppose the reason why this hotel has been giving huge rate discounts is because it was under construction when I visited. The hot waters were not available during the day time. The wifi internet constantly stops working and the staff has to reset the internet server four times during my two nights stay. Cable connector on the table for the internet […] did not work at all. Oh, and when I asked the staff to adjust the temperature in my room they were unable to do so because the only thing I can adjust for air-conditioning was Off/Low/High. There was no adjustment whatsoever for the temperatures. I'd avoid staying at this place if I could. Read more

Agora Place Asakusa has a very friendly staff, great location, and clean rooms. This modern hotel was the perfect property for us to end our Japan trip. Although the room was small, it was well kept with a great bathroom and comfortable bed. The hotel is located right near the Tawaramachi subway station on the Ginza line (please note that if you have […] heavy/a lot of luggage, the station does not have an elevator). Overall, a great stay! Read more

The only downside to this hotel for me is that my room was kind of tiny. Everything else about it was great. I was lugging two huge suitcases and the hotel was half a block from the metro. The place was clean. Service was wonderful. Neighborhood was nice. Price was fantastic (I got a bargain but would have been happy paying twice as much). My new go […] to hotel for Tokyo. I recommend it to everyone. Read more

WOW!!! what a nice hotel. great experience. if you are looking for something next to the metro, a clrean hotel, with a great quality of service. this is one hotel that you should considered. I loved it. It was just like the pictures on the website. very modern and the staff was very helpful.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The location of the hotel is fantastic, 1/2 block from subway station & walking distance to Asakusa sights. Hotel staff spoke english well & helped with directions. The rooms are spotless albeit small, (think cabin ship) but it is Tokyo. I would definitely stay here again & I highly recommend it to others.

This hotel was renovated lately and it shows. Everything was bright and clean. Although we only stayed for one night, we were wishing it could have been for more.

Nice hotel, conveniently located in Asakusa, a minute's walk from Tawaramachi station (Ginza line). Small rooms, but not unusual by Japanese standards. Expect to pay extra for basic amenities - for example, no soap in the bathroom; this has to be purchased from Reception (or nearby Asafudado supermarket). Also, my first ever experience of 1-ply toilet […] paper! Notwithstanding these downfalls, would use again. Read more

Good location next to Subway, good accessibility to Asakura and JR lines. Check in time of 3pm seems a bit late to me but then most other hotels in Japan have this custom. Room generally overall clean.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I really enjoyed my stay. The room was beautiful, clean and with a big window with a nice view ; towels, TV, clock alarm... Too bad that soap and shampoo ae not provided. It's easy to come and go without having to ask for the key, it gives total flexibility, freedom and privacy. It would be really useful moreover to have internet in the room and not […] only in the unique computer in the hall, but I appreciated everything else. People are nice and they keep luggage as long as desired, that's great. The really closed by Tawaramachi station is usefull and the area is nice. Thanks for all! Read more

The room is the smallest that i have stayed in the whole japan trip. The room does not even provide any amenities. The walking space is lost as soon as we lay our luggages on the floor. The toilet space is also very very limited. My boyfriend can't even fit himself in front of the sink. The sound proofing is very bad. Every night we will hear the other […] guests banging on the door or talking at the corridor. The housekeeping staff also didn't do a good job. The sink wasn't even clean after they make up the room. The only upside of this hotel is that it is near to a metro station but also not really that convenient as most tourist places are more approachable using JR line. So your transportation fee might actually go up a bit because of switching from two different train company. Read more

Excellent Hotel with clean rooms, friendly and helpful staff, easy access to public transit, on-site coin laundry. The only down side is that the free wi-fi sometimes are hard to connect to.

Really enjoyed our stay at Agora Place. It's a fantastic hotel for couples and business people. Perhaps not families as the rooms are quite small.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Was really satisfied during my stay with Agora Place Asakusa. Was very grateful to the staff who provided assistance to receive packages for me. They informed me that my packages arrived with a small slip which was probably slipped under my door which I find it very nice of them. The basic amenities were replenished promptly. The quality of the room […] was also excellent which contributed to an even better stay. There are several train stations located nearby which made it convenient to travel around. Even though it wasn't located near any JR station, the Metro line is able to bring you to most places in Tokyo. There are 2 convenient stores nearby. If there is promotion in the near future, I'll be returning to Agora Place Asakusa the next round too! :) Read more

Very easy to go about 3 minute to Tawaramachi Station.Family mart and cheaper shop nearby.10 minute walking to Asakusa temple.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Very convenient and just a minute walk from the metro Dawaracho station. It is on the Genza line and the east way side of that line is Harazuku which is the shopping area and close to Shinzuku. The hotel is also located near the temple in Asakusa. It takes around 15 minutes walk to the temple. Highly recommended this hotel as it is good value for money. […] Be reminded that metro Dawaracho station does not have elevator facility and it will be xx if you carry heavy luggage. Read more

Depositing my baggage a day before checkin was absolutely no problem; the hotel staff are friendly, obliging and speak decent English (they also helped me with a stuck camera battery!) The hotel is very clean and modern, decently furnished and comfortable to stay in. My room was a little on the small side, but given the superb location and the very […] low cost this was more than acceptable! Overall, this was a nicely priced, convenient and comfortable hotel, which provided exactly what I wanted with minimal fuss and faffing around. I have no hesitation in recommending it. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

Hotel was clean and modern. Slightly further from the main attractions but near to the station. Note to people coming from Tawaramachi station: there is a lift somewhere in the station, its much easier to find the lift than to lug your luggage out of exit B!

Genuine Expedia guest review

If you are particular about small things such as tooth paste and tooth brush, shampoo and body soap, this hotel does not replenished them daily. I stayed for three nights and only on the third night then they gave me a new set of tooth brush and tooth paste, same goes for Shampoo and body soap. I dirtied the disposable slippers and threw it away after […] the first night and guess what, no replacement given :( The above are the major flaws of this hotel. On a different note, let me tell you about the PROS I found during my three nights stay. 1) Hotel is quite new, so I guess it is a plus point. 2) There is a super market nearby. 3) near to Tawaramachi station 4) I stayed at 8th floor, and Sky Tree can be seen from the window. Cons 1) wired LAN not working. Though there are many Wireless LAN access point but only one is connectable. 2) Nearest JR stn Ueno is 1km away. Read more

Great location for subway station. We went as a family and were able to commute via rail everyday. Rooms are bit small but we knew that prior to booking.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The room is about twice the area of the bed. However the location is great and good price too. One advice: the window is bit cold when in winter. Please repair.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Very clean, modern and new at a reasonable price! Staff English is poor but enough for basic information. Very close of tube station in a good location. Around you find everything u need: restaurants, shops, supermarkets. You can book with peace of mind!
