Ryokan in Kitakatsushika District

"The space of the room is clean and very generous sized for a Tokyo hotel. The hotel is convenient with a few restaurants in the hotel. It's not located in the busiest areas which is good for those who prefer quieter surroundings. But subway stations are nearby for easy access. Only negative thing is there is a faint smell which drifts through the room occasionally which might be from the river nearby. "

"The positives: Our large and comfortable twin share room on the 22nd floor with a magnificent view of the superb Skytree. The room was spacious, clean and consistently maintained by housekeeping. The front desk was always polite, friendly and helpful. In fact all the staff were so delightful and attentive. Additionally, the hotel is walking distance to the JR Kinshicho train station with direct link to Tokyo, Shinjuku, and Akihabara- all significant places of interest. Kinshicho is a thriving hub and has a Uniqlo, Zara, Burger King, McDonalds, and a DonJiote (a Japanese everything store open 24/7 selling everything from luggage to souvenirs). There is also an abundance of sushi, ramen and gyoza shops behind the hotel (we did not discover this until day 4). The negative was the breakfast buffet. I felt that the range of options for fresh protein: fish, chicken, tofu and fresh fruit (banana, strawberry, apple, orange) was not available. I also would have liked to have seen some onigiri, nori rolls. Processed meats, juices, potato fries are not to my liking. However, all in all our stay at the Tobu was a great success and I would highly recommend it! "
