Richmond Hotel Premier Asakusa International
Wonderful hotel! Very clean and staff is very kind. I would highly recommend staying here. My favourite part is that the hotel is right above Uniqlo and across from Don Quijote :) The hotel is also around many shops and restaurants + senso-ji temple.

Asakusa View Hotel
Very good location as it was walking distance to a lot of the attractions in Asakusa such Sensoji Temple, Kappabashi Kitchen Town and shops such as Don Quixote, UniQlo, etc. Rooms were clean and beds were comfortable. Staff was friendly but the front desk had difficulty understanding and speaking ...
