Sakura Hostel Asakusa Reviews

Staff where very helpful! Loved there english speaking skills!

Very much a backpacker's hostel. Was in an 8-bed female dorm, was fine, although had to pay money to rent a padlock for a locker. Facilities good, location okay. Staff were nice. All round a good hostel.

It was a great!! The staff was very helpful and friendly. The place is fairly close to the train station and many convenience stores.

Sakura Hostel was great. Free wi fi, free locker in room which fits maybe a back pack and small bag (provide own lock or buy one from desk). I did get lost via the directions on this site but was due to me lacking staying too them, the keihan hotel is quite a ways up the road..couple blocks. Umm showers were good and hot. When i needed a english speaking doctor and was a Sunday they had information and numbers to a doctor on hand which was great. Great area to explore. I would definately goagain

I stayed in private room for a few days during December. Cleanliness - Very clean Convenience - Location is somewhat hard to fine, but is next to Sensoji Temple which has some interesting shops / restaurants. Not close to the subway (20 minutes to Asakusa station) which was not fun walking to when it is 5 degrees celsius Value - For a private room, I definitely paid less than I would have at a cheaper hotel Gripe: You can't control heating, they sometimes turn off the heat and it gets cold!

Very kind and helpful. Helped us get supplies from local stores. Also helped direct us to our next destinations.

My second stay at the hostel. Love this place,, and made all the more better that it is in the greatest city in the world. Also check out a bar thats 5 mins walk away called Samurai Cafe. Had an amazing night in there and the owner, Yu, is a top guy too.

Loved this place. The staff were friendly, helpful, and professional. The facilites were clean and modern. The lobby was certainly designed for socialization and my every need was provided for. Pamphlets for on the spot activites were conveniently located throughout. My only improvement might be to security in that the staff desk sits right by the door but it wouldn't be too difficult for a non-guest to stroll through the door to the elevator without being checked. kudos though sakura.

It is more a long term hostel than a backpackers hostel.

Really enjoyed staying in this hostel and the local area map & metro guide I got from the staff was very useful. Would definitely recommend it to others.

Nice and clean hostel but alittle bit far from subway station

Sakura Hostel is great! Fabulous locationg in Asakusa - right next to the Senjo Temple. Awesome market shopping and lots of food eateries around the corner. The staff were very welcoming and helpful - just what I needed being a solo traveller in Japan for the first time. Would recommend to everyone.

Super helpful staff and great atmosphere for your travels. Cleanliness and organization of all facilities was easy and made my stay enjoyable.

Nice place, great location, very friendly staff but the place is a bit full when it comes to meeting new people. A good place to relax. Good facilities.

The place is more than great; the Asakusa and Ginza line are about 10 minutes away by foot, and these two lines pretty much can get you to all of the touristy districts, and the hostel is very close to the most popular souvenir street. The 8people dorm room was clean and nice; the showers are also very clean and comfortoble to use; the only thing I can complain about is the extremely smelly rug that they have put in the elevator... Id always take the stairs cause that smell is just horrible !

Excellent hostel recommended to me by a mate. Definitely staying again when next in Tokyo

Excellent hostel—great location, spacious, new facility, helpful staff, great prices. I'd definitely stay again.

Great place to stay for my first night in Japan travelling alone. Staff were fantastic, thank you for the help with information and being able to speak more than just Japanese!

I especially liked Hiro, he was very good

Great room, great staff
