Charming ryokan near Sensoji. Thought it would be noisy at night but not at all. Staff warm and welcoming on our arrival and the public bath was a lovely especially after a long day of travelling from Ehime prefecture. Room cosy and welcoming. Slept so well. Plenty of places nearby for food, etc. Room was air conditioned which was a bonus.

Traditional Japanese inn located a stone throw from Senso-ji temple. Our room contained futons and floor seating in the Japanese style and was immaculately clean. Shigetsu offers single gender communal baths which provide amazing views. Staff are helpful, friendly and polite. I strongly recommend this inn. I will stay again if ever in Tokyo.

The room is clean and spacious, perfect for our group of 4 (2 adults + 2 children, age 10 and 7). The staff are friendly and helpful. The 6th floor onsen is a very nice amenity considering that you are in the middle of a bustling Tokyo neighborhood! We will definitely be staying here again. Thank you!
