We were very happy with our stay in the Blue Wave, our room was spacious, (much much more spacious than we were expecting for Tokyo!) very clean. Very very comfortable beds too, after a month of futons on the floor the proper mattresses on real beds was just heavenly! A standard but good breakfast on offer too. The location was... More

We enjoyed our stay at Blue Wave Inn Asakusa. The room was what you would expect of a Japanese Hotel. Pretty small, but with everything you need. We stayed in smaller whilst in Japan, so its not too bad. The staff were friendly enough with limited but understandable English and had good area information. Easy walk from here to the... More

Yes, there might be million more hotels that might be cheaper or better. But that probably wouldn't change the fact that this hotel is great. Located in GREAT location with bars and restaurants all around. Major tour site in walking distance and another tour site with another additional 10~15 minutes walk. Temperature of Asakusa is just so wonderful and this... More

It is a really modest business hotel located in Asakusa. It is not terribly near Asakusa station but well within walking distance. I will say it is about 10 minutes walk depending on which exit and line you take. It is close to Nakamise-dori, Senso-ji and there are plenty of amenities around the area. The room is a tad small...

It was our second visit to Tokyo in 2012. We had stayed in Ikebukuro in March and wanted to try another area. The location is conveniently located within a 10 minute walk from the Asakusa Ginza line station and popular attractions such as Sensoji Temple and Nakamise street are just nearby.But if you are coming via Narita airport, I would...

This low key hotel was perfect for our first explorations of Tokyo. Easy walking to underground trains and close to the Senso-ji Temple and the shops of Nakamise-dori. Plenty of restaurants to choose from too. The hotel is unpretentious but efficient with friendly staff. The room was a reasonable size for Japan and clean and well maintained.

This was our first trip to japan and we had no idea where we were going! thankfully the hotel was easy to find and it turns out asakusa is near to everywhere! the hotel staff were friendly and always helpful. the restaurant staff used a translator to tell us what we were eating when we asked (i thought this was...

This was our first trip to Japan and we were very pleased with the Blue Wave Asakusa and the surrounding area. The temple and market area were very close by and the subway stations to other parts of Tokyo were a 5 minute walk. The room seemed a reasonable size for Tokyo and was very modern and well kept. We... More

My husband and I stayed at this hotel on our first night in Japan, we spent one night in Tokyo before moving on to Kyoto. We took the Keisei Skyliner to Ueno station. The hotel is a short subway ride away, but we were tired and decided to take a short taxi ride instead. This hotel was the best priced... More
