Hotel Litlle Bird Oku Asakusa

"Quiet, clean, friendly host. There is no elevator, which may prove to be difficult for those who don't fair with stairs well. Overall, I would most definitely recommend staying here."

"Hotel Little Bird was the perfect place for us! We were traveling in a group of 4 (43 year old dad, 18 year old son, 13 year old daughter, and 21 year old nephew). We stayed 10 nights and are sad we have to leave! The location is about 10 minutes from the Iriya station on foot or 15 from Asakusa. It is in a peaceful area but one that is still well served with restaurants. We loved this as we had the option to jump on a train or bus to get to all the major places in Tokyo very easily but didn't have to deal with the noise or crowds of the areas like Shinjuku or Shibuya.\nThe facilities were very comfortable for our needs, and it was great having a fridge and stove top in our room as well as access to a microwave and washer/dryer in the common areas as well as a great roof top terrace with views of the Skytree and such. The best reason to stay at Little Bird is the management though. Tetsuro is amazing! Very kind and incredibly helpful. He was able to help us with things like tickets to a sold out concert, recommendations on food and entertainment, and he provides tours of different parts of the city as well. He can customize based on what you want. We did an Edo period tour, and it was the highlight of our trip! We will definitely be back to Hotel Little Bird on future trips to Tokyo!"

"It sure is a hidden gem of Asakusa!\nThe room is clean and neat. It won’t cost you extra even if you bring another person. The hotel has a nice little rooftop space which offers a refreshing view around. The owner is very nice and charming, always willing to serve his guests with abundant knowledge and heart. Moreover, I’ve found Oku-Asakusa where the hotel is located is known to those in the know. It has not only historic sites, shrines and temples, but a lot of good small cafes and restaurants. You will not regret staying this hotel but will definitely feel at home and love to stroll around the neighborhood!!\n\nSMALL TIPS: If you are willing to spend 15-20 minutes to have a nice walk to Asakusa Station, as we were, Ginza Subway Line (Japan’s 1st full-fledged subway since 1927), will directly take you to Ginza Station in 20 minutes and Shibuya Station in 30+ minutes (both no transfers). Tokyo Skytree is 20 minutes away from Asakusa Station by Tobu Skytree Line.\n\nAlso, there are a number of convenient bus routes in this area that take you to near-by stations (e.g. Asakusa Kotobukicho, Tawaramachi, Nippori; Just ask Google maps!). Buses in Japan are very reliable, safe, clean, mostly on time, and offer unique, interesting opportunities to watch local people!!"
