This was a great stay. I stayed at the female dorm, the whole floor is for females only. The room is really spacious and comes with a big locker where you can fit one big backpack and one medium one. The shower room toilet is also very clean. Overall I would recommend staying here.
Visited in December 2023 I loved my stay in Tora Hotel Asakusa, the location of this hotel is strategic though the distance from the metro station is not as near as I expected, it's walkable. My travel plans involved staying in this hostel for one night and then leaving for Hakone for 2 nights stay and then returning to this hostel again for another 3 nights stay - the staffs were understanding and considerate enough to allow me to store my (larger) luggage with them while I was away in Hakone. I stayed in the female only dormitory. To enter, we have to key in a passcode (which I liked because of safety), each one of us have a luggage storage locker, the bed sheets were fresh and clean, hair dryer was provided and the bathroom was clean as well. The dormitory was full but it was calm, there wasn't much noise or disturbance. One night when I came back to the hostel, they're watching some anime movie or something at the lobby, haha fun! Overall, I highly recommend this hostel to all especially solo travellers :)
Tora Place is nestled in a quiet residential neighborhood, just a short walk from the iconic Tokyo Skytree and the scenic Sumida River—making the location feel almost magical. The surrounding area is peaceful, yet well-connected, offering a great balance of local charm and accessibility to major sights. One downside is the bathroom setup; the shower facilities are located on the first floor, which can be a bit inconvenient depending on where your capsule is situated. However, toilets are conveniently available on the same floor as the sleeping pods. While the capsule design is modern and functional, a more enclosed setup would have been appreciated. The curtains provide limited privacy, which might not be ideal for light sleepers or those sensitive to noise or movement. Additionally, the air conditioning can be somewhat inconsistent. There were a few nights where it felt a bit warm.
I stayed here my first three days in Tokyo and it was great! Amazing location, walking distance from Senso-Ji temple and very close to Skytree, lots of amazing restaurants nearby and a Lawson Kombini ! The staff was helpful and nice! My fave thing about this place is it had a kitchen so you can make your own meals to save money def a plus for a budget traveler like me , and the bed was spacious and comfy , they also had a bathtub which was amazing for me as my body and feet were achy after long days exploring Asakusa and a trip to Disneysea! 10/10 place My only suggestion would be they place cleaning products somewhere so we can tidy up, everyone isn’t raised the same and some people were a bit messy and also air freshener because there’s like 4 toilets and sometimes people go #2 and it smelled lol also, hooks in the bunks would be helpful for people who have a robe or want their purse/bag on hand !
The location was about 10min walk from the nearest station. A little bit far but that's okay the weather was nice for walking. The room is nice so was the staff. It's a resident area super quiet at night so gooood. The luggage storage is hugeee love it! I have a great time staying here, well there's no rooftop anymore a little bit disappointed
