  • The only bad thing is that smoking is allowing inside the common rooms, although there is a terrace on the last floor.

  • First, finding "capsule hotel" can be confusing as the counter is shared by Hotel Gyominso. The counter is quite small and crowded. You can smell smoking almost everywhere in this hotel which was the biggest minus point. However, it has women only floor and capsules which was fantastic and the facilities were very celan and tidy. I didnt expect any locker after reading some reviews but they gave me very small locker anyway. BUT you cannot use your wifi in your capusle floor. Only in 2nd floor.

  • I was only staying one night at the Capsule Hotel Asakusa River Side since I was travelling around Japan. I was so satisfied with the facilities and staff that I would not have minded going back on my last night in Japan! It is an experience I will do again for sure.

  • This place was exactly what I've learned to expect from lower-priced 'business hotels'. Yes, the facilities are old, but they were clean. Yes, there was a smell of smoke many places--but nearly all business hotels I've stayed in were the same (smoking is much more accepted in Japan than some places). However, the price was exactly what I was looking for, it was clean enough for my fairly-high standards, the staff were very friendly, and staying in a capsule was an interesting experience.
