Hotels near Drum Museum, Tokyo

I had a very satisfying stay. The facilities were well-equipped, and the bed space was generous, ensuring a comfortable sleep. There was plenty of room under the bed for a suitcase and a travel bag. There are many shops nearby, and the Tsukuba Express and Ginza Line right outside are very convenient. It's a bit far from Asakusa Station, so if you have luggage, remember to navigate and avoid the Senso-ji Temple area; take another route. My roommates were all considerate, and it was very quiet at night, though it's inevitable if you happen to get a snorer, haha.

If you’re looking for an affordable stay that puts you steps away from buzzing restaurants and nightlife, this small hotel is a perfect pick. It’s light on frills but heavy on convenience, offering a no-fuss base for explorers who want to spend more on experiences than accommodations.   Tucked into a lively neighborhood, it’s surrounded by a number of cafes, restaurants, bars and convenience stores—all within a 1-2 minute walk, basically everything is right at your doorstep. The area feels vibrant but safe, with popular temples and public transit (a metro station just 5-10 minutes away) makes it easy to venture farther afield.   The hotel is room was small and compact but spotless, with a comfortable bed, AC ,curtains, and a sleek ensuite bathroom (hot shower + good water pressure!).The basics like a TV, free Wi-Fi, and a small desk were provided. The lack of clutter and modern minimalist design made the space feel fresh, not cramped. The bed is just good enough for two regular adults and a small kids. While amenities are limited, they cover the essentials: 24-hour front desk, luggage storage, and free amenities refills at the front desk. The staff were friendly and efficient. They offered quick check-in/out, and delivered fresh towels to our door in the morning.

Cleanliness was decent, though the room was quite basic and a bit on the small side. Transport was relatively convenient, and speaking with the front desk in English was no issue, so Japanese wasn't strictly necessary.

Had a great experience here. The location is excellent, with two subway stations within a five-minute walk. The facilities are also very comprehensive, and you can see the Tokyo Skytree directly from the balcony. The sleeping environment was very comfortable, and my roommate was very considerate.

I really liked that the beds were perpendicular to the aisle, it felt more secure. The mattress was thick and soft, so I slept very comfortably. There were many spacious restrooms, and the showers were like a public bath, where you sit down to wash, similar to an onsen. There was also a large, very hot communal pool, but I could only stay in for about a minute. If you unplug the desk lamp, you'll find an outlet for your charger; otherwise, there's only a slow USB charging port. However, the ladder was terrible – it was made of thin metal and hurt my feet terribly, especially after already walking so much. Climbing that ladder felt like torture! It was also quite difficult to climb, so I wouldn't recommend it for anyone not agile or with long fingernails. There are no private rooms on the floor, just dozens of beds, so it was quite noisy at night with people snoring. There was also a constant loud banging from outside the building, I'm not sure what it was.

The room size is comfortable and well-suited for a pleasant stay. The overall environment of the hotel is cozy and relaxing, making it feel very welcoming. The location is convenient, with easy access to transportation and nearby amenities. It is simple to get around and find food or attractions in the area. The hotel also provides complimentary snacks and a light breakfast, which is a nice touch and adds to the overall experience. Overall, it was an enjoyable and comfortable stay.

The hotel's location is really bizarre. It takes about 15 minutes to walk to the subway station no matter which way you go. 15 minutes doesn't sound like much, but dragging luggage through those confusing streets and alleys is very complicated. The terrain is quite intricate, with lots of twists and turns. At first, I even thought Google Maps was glitching. Later, I asked the front desk, and they confirmed that's how they walk too – lots of small paths. It feels a bit unsafe at night because there are no lights and no people, but you pass through many narrow alleys! If you're planning to take the direct subway from Asakusa Station to Narita Airport, it's completely unnecessary. That was my original plan, but that particular train only comes once every three or four hours. If you're booking this hotel just to catch that train, don't bother, because you'll likely miss it. So, I ended up buying a Skyline ticket instead. Considering the location, it's not particularly convenient unless you're willing to take a taxi. I ended up taking a taxi to the central station later on. **Facilities:** The bedding is pretty good; it feels like Muji's cotton and linen blend, very comfortable. This capsule room is all-female, so everyone is quite considerate, and it's clean and quiet. The hair dryers in the ladies' restroom are also good Panasonic ones. The hair dryers are decent, and many women do their makeup in the restroom. The showers are also relatively clean. Overall, it's okay, it's just the location that's a bit out of the way! **Service:** For luggage storage, they only allow you to store it until 6:00 PM on the day of your check-out. If you go past 6:00 PM, they will definitely charge you an extra fee! The front desk staff are friendly and will help carry luggage, but perhaps it's a kind of insincere friendliness. They might smile at you while helping you at the same time. 🩸

The standard twin room was surprisingly spacious, even bigger than I expected, with two small sofas and a round table. The bathroom was a bit cramped, but the room was cleaned thoroughly every day. The hotel's location is great, with a subway station just a short walk away and close proximity to Senso-ji Temple. It's also convenient to take the subway to the city center, making it an excellent choice for a trip to Tokyo.

Grids Tokyo Ueno hotel & hostel has a great location. Nearby train station and shopping areas. Easy access to many attractions. Have a shared kitchen where we can make our own food. Very vibrant places with many different people who come from different countries. Shared bathrooms and toilets are clean and comfortable to use. Have paid to use laundry service available. Beds are clean and comfortable.

This was my second stay here. I booked a 1.5-meter double bed room, which felt a bit cramped for two adults and one child. The room space was limited, so my large suitcase could only be half-opened. However, the location is excellent! There's a shopping mall nearby, several drugstores, a convenience store across the street, and it's about 400 meters from Den-en-chofu Subway Station, making it very convenient for getting around.
