Dormy Inn EXPRESS Asakusa

Exceptional location: Very Convenient 8-10 mins walk from the subway stations, and 10-15 mins walk to the temples and shopping areas. Small room: Pretty small for 2 pax but it's well-furnished if you keep your belongings in orderly manner. Nice Breakfast: Buffet style with Unagi bowl rice and many other traditional Japanese dishes. Taste are great and the dinning ambience is fine too. The complementary noodles for supper is definitely worth trying! Staffs: Very friendly and helpful that answered all our requests. Overall it's a nice comfy hotel to stay in.

The view from our room was exceptional, overlooking the Skytree at the riverside. Breakfast was excellent. There are also ice lollipop, comic corner, ramen, onsen foot bath and a massage chair at the public area. Must try their cup noodles that are for free if staying for more than one night without housecleaning.

The staff are the best, always smiling and helpful. The location is very convenient to get on the Ginza and Asakusa subway line as well as the Tobu-Nikko train. Although the hotel onsen is small and single gender at a time but they offer the use of onsen at their other branch about 10min walk away which is great. Laundry machines at a few levels are great, as well as a healthy breakfast at 1300¥ per person which is reasonable.

Location is very near to the main attractions. Japanese breakfast is delicious. The river view is beautiful especially at night when the lights by the river, the boats and the tokyo skytree are lit up. There is free ice cream at the top onsen level and ramen noodle at dining area at night. Massage chair is available at the top level too.

We stayed here twice on this trip (3days and 7days). Bear in mind that this is technically a basic 3star 'Business Hotel' the rooms were quite large for such and the waterfront/balcony room views of SkyTree, Sumida River and the Kirin building were just fabulous. ALL the staff were very friendly, courteous and helpful. The room was clean and the bathroom spotless - it was a good size for a business hotel. The hotel is only a few steps away from 3 convenience stores, the Tobu train station, the Ginza subway and Asakusa central. The Sumida tourist boats basically dock right outside and the Yakgatabune boats just across the bridge. Great location and great price! For a couple I recommend rooms 801 or 901 (doubles). Both rooms had a microwave, kettle, fridge, balcony/views etc.
