Guest Reviews
- Naama (10/5): - The location. After a busy day, it's comforting to come back to a quiet place, and the smiling owners.
The room was very big and comfortable. Nothing
- Pauline (7/5): -
- veronique (10/5): -
- Delyan (8/5): -
- Claudia (10/5): Buena ubicación, limpieza y amabilidad - Muy buena ubicación, cerca de dos estaciones de metro, conbinis y supermercados. El lugar lo lleva una pareja, apenas llegué el señor buscó un carro para que pueda dejar mis cosas y las llevó a mi habitación mientras hacía el proceso de check-in con la señora. La habitación fue ideal para pasar mis últimos días en Tokio, buen tamaño, limpia y cómoda. Contaba con televisión y hervidor, té y café. Junto a la recepción hay un pequeño mueble con papel higiénico, pañuelos, cepillo de diente y otras cosas que se podrían necesitar durante la estadía. Si te gusta caminar, puedes llegar a la Universidad de Tokio, donde se encuentra una estatua del famoso Hachiko junto a su dueño. Los alrededores del Ryokan también son muy bonitos. Cuentan también con un servicio de envío de equipaje al aeropuerto de Narita, eso sí el envío se hace el día anterior al día del vuelo. Si bien no hice uso de este servicio, me pareció genial, sobre todo si se está viajando con harto equipaje.

- Mathieu (9/5): A good Stay - It's a quiet yet bustling street where it is located. The owners speak/understand at a level that it ease conversation. The pillow feathers were poking through the pillow case.
- Silvia (8/5): -
- Catherine (8/5): Clean comfy sold stay in a splendid location - A sweet Japanese style in Taito right near the Yanaka district. Easy access to buses and the subway. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Breakfast at Coffee Chi-zu right across the street. We’d stay here again. The bathroom is has a step which can be tricky if one gets up at night 🙂
- Dario (10/5): -
- Jeffrey (10/5): Spacious and great location - Japanese-style room with lots of shelves so we could unpack and stay organized. Location was perfect, very near Sendagi Station made it easy to get all over Tokyo. Street has lots of interesting restaurants and coffee shops, but is still pretty chill compared to a lot of Tokyo. Owners were friendly and helpful, laundry machines by the front desk worked well and the owner supplies the soap.

- Cerutti Cuffia (9/5): - Su tradicionalidad Tenia un poco de olor la habitación. Olor a sudor.

- Gerlinde (10/5): Authentisches japanisches Zimmer an der Fußgängerzone von Ueno- Yanaka - Ein schönes japanisches Zimmer mit modernen Einrichtungen wie Doppelverglasung, Sonnenrollo und Insektengitter vor dem mit Blüten geprägten Papanpapierfenster, Fernbedienung für das Deckenlicht. Es gab in der Lobby eine Waage für die Koffr, leider aber keine Mikrowelle.
- Anne Lise (10/5): -
- Emma (9/5): Yanaka favourite - Our favourite place to stay in tokyo. Love Yanaka area, convenient to Sendagi subway and Nippori station. Comfortable rooms, friendly owners. Only issue was a very loud toilet noise when flushed.

- miguel (9/5): A gusto - Situación, personal y es un barrio tranquilo Los colchones… dormir en el suelo en un colchón de 3 cm es bastante incómodo en cuanto pasan unos cuantos días
- Marie Charlotte (10/5): - L emplacement
L accueil
- Chiana (10/5): We enjoyed our stay! Thank you! - Perfect location, nice, clean, spacious
- rdftcy (8/5): - 離地鐵很近,走路一分鐘就有超市和便利商店,房間以東京來說空間算蠻大的。 浴室洗澡的水溫很難調整,吹風機風量比較小一點,長髮注意。
親子客可能要注意,我當初選一大一小也有選擇小孩年齡5歲,booking上面寫的是小孩免費入住(單人床墊),抵達時老闆娘卻跟我說通常免費的是指小寶寶,這麼大通常是要費用(不確定是不是說一定要加床的意思),雖然最後沒有多少錢我也沒有加床,但感覺不是很好。
- LUIS (8/5): -
- Caroline (10/5): - L'emplacement dans le quartier de Yanaka-Ginza. Très agréable pour rentrer le soir un peu plus au calme mais très bien desservi.
La gentillesse de l'équipe pour proposer machine à laver et remplir le bon pour la livraison des bagages. Les stores pas assez opaque mais pratique pour se lever tôt le matin ;-)
- Poulin-Houle (10/5): - Super emplacement, accueil chaleureux et séjour impeccable.
- delhomme (9/5): - Excellent location in Yanaka, a peacefull but lively neighborhood with locals. No breakfast, but at the end it's fine as so many places around, so easy and good.
- Marie (9/5): - Un ryokan à la fois moderne et dans son jus. Chambre authentique et très bien placé dans le quartier de Yanaka. Je recommande!
- yelda (10/5): -
- Laurie (10/5): - I loved everything about this place. The owners are lovely, and so helpful. Very comfortable room. Great location…tons of restaurants around. The neighborhood is vibrant and fun.
- Pui Ying (6/5): - Very helpful 整體清潔方面需改進
- Jose (10/5): - I loved the location, the price balance and the traditional feel. The staff was very kind and helpful. It is great that its a ryokan but with private bathrooms.
- Lauren Naidon (10/5): -
- Devin (10/5): Very local and nice ryokan. - Very very quiet and helpful. They gave us very good recommendations and the rooms were very comfortable! Nothing, our stay exceeded expectations.
- Eleonora (10/5): Satisfy - We had a very pleasant stay here at the Annex Katsutaro Ryokan. The location is excellent, just 4 minutes from Sendagi Metro and 10 minutes from Nippori Station.
The staff were lovely and the size of the room was very good.

- miguel (10/5): Perfecta - Localización y personal Nada
- YANG (10/5): -
- Alberto (9/5): Ryokan muy agradable en una zona de Tokio tranquila y bien comunicada - Los dueños son muy amables y te ayudan en todo lo que puedas necesitar.
La ubicación es muy buena: está en un barrio relativamente tranquilo y está bien comunicado a través de la estación de JR de Nippori y de la estación de metro de Sendagi, que permiten llegar a cualquier zona de Tokio con relativa rapidez.
La habitación, con tatami y futón, está bien de tamaño para los estándares de Tokio y es bastante agradable. La limpieza es impecable. El estor de la ventana de la habitación no bloquea lo suficiente la entrada de luz, por lo que en cuanto amanece entra bastante luz, aunque esto es habitual en habitaciones de estilo tradicional japonés.
El grifo de la bañera tiene mandos independientes para el agua caliente y el agua fría, por lo que es un poco incómodo ajustar la temperatura del agua.
- Sigrid (10/5): -
- Tae (10/5): -
- David (8/5): -
- Flavia (10/5): - Oramai è il nostro posto di fiducia. Ci piace la zona non troppa caotica e la struttura che seppur non moderna è accogliente.
- Schwarzvogel (10/5): -
- Sands (10/5): -
- Sean (9/5): -
- Jose (10/5): Comfortable, hospitable and friendly - How it was located in a nicer residential area with plenty of konbini near by and excellent restaurants. It got a little noisy a few days due to street work
- Mélanie (10/5): - Tout, le quartier est super agréable et les propriétaires du Ryokan sont super sympas aussi. Chambres spacieuses et propres La connexion internet n’était pas très bonne mais en tant que touristes on passait nos journées dehors donc ce n’était pas vraiment dérangeant.
- Huan-Chi (8/5): 非常推薦,下次來東京還想再來住! - 住宿環境非常好,老闆很友善,而且服務非常親切,除了仔細地說明住宿的環境,還有幫忙拿行李到房間。房間空間很大又很乾淨,住起來很舒服,唯一小缺點是沒有窗簾,所以早上會被太陽叫醒。另外地方非常方便,交通上有日暮里和千馱木兩站,想去哪裡都很方便,附近有兩家超市和兩家超商也很讚,以及谷中銀座可以逛街、吃飯和喝酒。 沒有
- nathalie (8/5): - L’emplacement
- Payne (10/5): -
- Cecilia (9/5): - Il quartiere in cui si trova la struttura è davvero adorabile e i proprietari sono molto gentili e disponibili. Stanza molto pulita. Non c’è niente che non mi sia piaciuto a tal punto da doverlo segnalare.
- Bentz (9/5): -
- Lin (9/5): - 交通方便,距離JR(日暮里)及Metro(千駄木) 都很近。
可寄放行李,入住時行李已提前放入房內了。
房內有室內拖鞋、延長線,毛巾可自助更換。 剛好碰到夜間施工🥲
- McMahon (10/5): - Clean quiet and close to the station, staff is friendly, rooms are cleaned every three days, room is lovely and comfy! That I couldn't stay longer(not their fault)
- RUTA (10/5): everything was amazing! - everything was amazing!
- Andrea (10/5): -
- Sean (10/5): - Clean premises and the onsen was great! It was on a steep hill
- zichen (10/5): 因为它爱上日式家庭旅馆 - 传统的日式房间、屋内设备齐全。位置也好,旁边是银座商街,对面就要711。老板特别热情,服务周到。英语好好呀! 没有呢
- Jeang Jenq (10/5): - Spacious room with very comfortable futon. The location is close to Nippori train station which makes it very easy to go to other hubs in Tokyo. The region is very quiet and full of gems to explore, like Yanaka Ginza marketplace and the best Gyoza we had at Hanaya.
- Giulia (10/5): - La gentillesse des gérants et la beauté de la petite chambre typique. Très reposant. Le quartier est calme et la gare très proche donc parfait pour se déplacer! Merci beaucoup
- ikuko (7/5): - 谷中銀座に近い お風呂の蛇口から水が漏れていた
門限があり、10時以降はサイド入り口しか開いていないので注意
- Siaw Kin (8/5): - The location is good. Very close to train stations. Located in a quiet residential neighbourhood. There were tourists but not too crowded. Lots of cafes and coffee shops and good bakeries in the area, also convenient stores and other shops. There were no hangers and no place in the room to hang jacket.
- Dalle (8/5): - Locatie, personeel
- Noémie (10/5): - Accueil chaleureux et disponibilité pour conseil.
Arrêt de bus juste en face du ryokan et proximité avec des supérettes et super restaurants.
À 5min a pied du métro et 10min de la Yamanote Line.
Un super séjour pour notre petite famille. Rien
- marcusvc (10/5): Great experience overall, would return - Superb location in a very cozy neighborhood, kind and helpful staff, overall a super comfortable stay and we were sad to leave it! Can definitely see myself returning here.
Also loved the lighting (can control brightness, warmth). No blackout blinds so if you're a light sleeper sensitive to morning light, pack a sleep mask.
- Pieter (9/5): - Sehr freundliche Gastgeber; gute, ruhige Lage
- Izabela (10/5): Second time and would go back - It was my second stay in this place. I love the location. Japanese traditional style but without paper thin walls. All was clean and functional. Bit dated but this did not bothered me. Would come back. N/a
- Mauro (8/5): - The courtesy of the hosts and the location. Excellent location. Near a metro and within a buzzy neighborhood. Nothing. All rest was great.
- Uthaiwan (8/5): -
- LadyCatorp (9/5): Very comfortable and spacious room in a beautiful neighbourhood - The room was big and nice and the futton it's really comfortable to me. I loved the lamp as you can adjust intensity and type of light. The area it's very nice and vivid during the day and transport communication it's good. The treatment from the staff it's more warm than in a regular hotel, more similar to hostel, and you still have the commodities and privacy. I had a problem the day leaving the room and the staff person was very patient and kind to me, I really appreciate that. どうもありがとう While day it's vivid in the neighbourhood, the night it's very quiet if you arrive at night. You can enter the Ryokan at any time but take in a account the last train arriving at the nearby stations.
- Tsai (10/5): I will still pick this place to stay next time! - Tatami! N/A
- fanette (9/5): -
- Marco (10/5): -
- Sophie (10/5): - Great location and cute ryokan. The couple is nice but not very talkative. The room was cosy with an individual bathroom and toilets. It is quite expensive so book in advance! Enjoy the pedestrian street with nice shops on Yanaka Ginza just nearby. Also there is a delicious coffee (Cebi ?) nearby, the ryokan will tell you where.
Convenient as you can come and go whenever you want with your key card. You also have a Yukata provided.
Overall very very good experience. Maybe a little bit of lack of human connection with the couple that runs the ryokan. I feel there are many customers that come one after the other and that they are maybe a little tired ? Seems that it is a lot of work of course to run this beautiful place.
- HaoTing (10/5): -
- caroline (7/5): Charmante expérience ! - L’emplacement dans le quartier très calme de Yanaka
- Jean-Marc (9/5): Très bon accueil. Très bien situé - Accueil tres chaleureux en anglais des propriétaires Un peu de bruit pendant la nuit du fait de travaux d'adduction d'eau non prévisibles. La propriétaire s'en est excusé et m'a offert une bière en compensation. C'était très gentil!
- Jenny (10/5): Perfect hosts, location and sleep! - I have stayed at the Ryokan many times over the years, and always return. The owners are fantastic and fun, the location is perfect, the area is gorgeous. There is nothing to dislike!
- Felipe (10/5): -
- Kosmo (10/5): -
- Elena (10/5): -
- Roberta (9/5): Immersion in Culture - The locationwas ideal. Very convenient to shopping, restaurants, and transportation! Entering the bathroom had a very high step to go in and then a step down. A potential hazard. Tookmea couple of days to adapt.
- Katie (10/5): -
- chi wai (8/5): - 有特色,寧靜好睡
- Maxime (10/5): Super ! - Tout était très bien ! Les chambres sont spacieuses et fonctionnelles, le personnel disponible et à l’écoute, l’emplacement est idéal.
