I recently made a reservation to try the popular breakfast buffet at this inn. As a guest, I enjoyed special services like night soba noodles and Yakult or ice cream after bathing. The next morning, I was looking forward to the breakfast buffet, which was mostly Japanese cuisine and very delicious. The seafood corner had ikura, scallops, salmon, and tuna, so I indulged in a luxurious ikura bowl for breakfast! It was very delicious. Overall, I had a very satisfying stay at the inn.

I am looking forward to breakfast and hot springs, so I often stay at Dormy Inn hotels. Today's accommodation is Nono Asakusa, which is close to Asakusa Hanayashiki. We checked in late, but the staff treated us kindly. The hotel has a relaxing atmosphere with a Japanese style. Since the rooms have tatami flooring, we don't wear slippers. We immediately enjoyed the hot spring. Their famous black hot spring water is indeed pitch black. After relaxing in the sauna, soaking in the hot spring was pure bliss. I was able to relieve my fatigue and sleep soundly, so I am ready for breakfast (laughs). I enjoyed the breakfast buffet at HATAGO on the 1st floor. The local specialties were unlimited ikura (salmon roe) and various seafood dishes. The small dishes were arranged in a visually appealing way, with each portioned out. The warm dishes were kept warm and the cold dishes were kept cold, which was very appetizing. I made a plate with several small dishes, salmon, egg, and ikura donburi with vinegared rice, Engawa (flounder fin), salmon, and negitoro (minced tuna and green onion) along with chawanmushi (savory egg custard), pickles, and miso soup. My favorite was the chawanmushi with Engawa and hot yuzu as accents. I went for seconds with the seafood donburi. I finished with fruits, cake, and a smoothie. I couldn't eat as much as I thought in the morning, but I was completely satisfied with the luxurious breakfast. I would like to stay at this accommodation again next time.

In Tokyo, I decided to try a breakfast buffet that focuses on hot springs and seafood. They offered all-you-can-eat salmon roe and sashimi. I went with high expectations for a luxurious start to the day, but the salmon roe was cheap quality and the sashimi was like 100 yen sushi. The accommodation price was reasonable and included in the package, so it wasn't a total disappointment. The hot spring was decent, and they also offered complimentary ice cream and late-night ramen service, which exceeded the value for money. However, I would choose a different facility next time.

Upon entering the restaurant, I was welcomed by tatami flooring and asked to wipe my carry-on bag. It was a busy day with many customers, so there weren't enough shoe lockers and I had to take a plastic bag for my shoes to the room. During check-in, we were offered a drink service! In the dining area, there was a refrigerator with options like lemon sour, Kinmugi beer, Tris Highball, and tea, where we could each choose one. I opted for the lemon sour. In the room's refrigerator, there was also a complimentary fruit platter. After enjoying a dinner cruise in Shinagawa, we returned to the inn for some late-night soba. The soup was light and delicious as always. Some of us weren't quite done drinking, so we went for a drink in Asakusa before enjoying a hearty breakfast the next morning. Although it was a buffet, there were limited seats available, and staff were taking reservations. We had to wait for 30 minutes, which made us slightly late for our planned 9 am departure. I didn't want to eat too much, so I opted for a seafood bowl with plenty of sashimi on top of a bed of rice. I also had a potato salad with a side of strawberries and a piece of dashi-flavored omelet. Despite feeling like I could drink in the morning, I decided to hold back a bit and enjoy the meal.

Located just a 4-minute walk from Tsukuba Express Asakusa Station (Exit 5), Ryouno Asakusa is a Japanese-style business hotel with natural hot springs. The large communal bath uses mineral-rich black hot spring water, and there are also cold baths (for men), dry saunas (for men), and mist saunas (for women). Breakfast includes a seafood bowl with unlimited salmon roe and a variety of small side dishes. Additionally, there is a free late-night soba noodle service from 9:30 pm to 11:00 pm. The hotel is operated by Kyoritsu Maintenance, which manages various businesses including business hotels, resorts, senior rental housing, and municipal services. Upon arrival around 4 pm on a weekday, there were a few guests at the front desk. I mentioned that I had made a reservation through the website and was informed that the check-out time was extended to 12 pm. After paying with a credit card, I received the room key. There was a refrigerator in the room stocked with welcome fruits and water. I chose a highball drink from the complimentary drink service in front of the front desk. The room was a twin room (19.35㎡). After enjoying the nightlife in Asakusa, I returned to the hotel around 10 pm. The dining area on the 1st floor was serving late-night soba noodles. The amber-colored soup with medium noodles and simple toppings like bamboo shoots, seaweed, and green onions was satisfying. Breakfast was served in the dining area from 6:15 am to 9:30 am (last entry at 9:00 am). The highlight was the unlimited salmon roe with soy sauce and a seafood bowl with options like yellowtail, salmon, and minced tuna. There were plenty of side dishes to accompany the rice. The hot spring at the hotel offers a sauna at around 100°C and a cold bath at around 10°C, which was quite intense. After bathing, there was an ice cream service from 3 pm to 11 pm and a probiotic drink service from 5 am to 10 am.

In January 2022, after enjoying ramen at the Chinese soba restaurant Biliken, I purchased some chu-hai from a convenience store and returned to my accommodation for the night at Hotel Nono Asakusa. Hotel Nono is a traditional Japanese-style premium hotel operated by the same company as the Dormy Inn where I often stay. It is located near Hanayashiki Street and Hoppy Street, right across from Hanayashiki Amusement Park and close to Senso-ji Temple, making it a convenient location for sightseeing in Asakusa. The hotel opened in July 2019 and offers a variety of room types, including double rooms like the one I stayed in. The exterior of the hotel is unassuming, but the interior has a traditional Japanese design, with guests required to remove their shoes upon entering. The room I stayed in had tatami flooring, a low desk, a comfortable bed, and a view of Senso-ji Temple and Tokyo Skytree. The room only had a shower and toilet, with guests encouraged to use the communal baths on the basement floor, which includes a natural hot spring bath, sauna, and cold water bath. I enjoyed the bath and the special services like ice pops and yogurt drinks provided. The hotel also has a restaurant called HATAGO that serves a late-night ramen dish called Yonakisoba, which was a perfect late-night snack. Overall, my stay at Hotel Nono Asakusa was pleasant and I look forward to trying their breakfast buffet next time.

I stayed overnight with two meals included. The breakfast was amazing. You can have unlimited servings of salmon roe rice bowl and side dishes. It was a luxurious morning. There are several types of sashimi and you can even make a seafood bowl. The salmon roe was not too salty, just the right amount of flavor. There were plenty of choices for side dishes! There was even dessert. I was completely satisfied from the morning. Thank you for the feast.

I have already visited this place about 3 times. It is one of the few natural hot springs in Tokyo. It is located right in front of Hanayashiki and very close to a drinking street. The rooms are clean and have tatami flooring. It is great that each room has its own bathroom even though there is a natural hot spring communal bath. The bath and toilet are separate. The amenities are also well-stocked. The natural hot spring bath has soft black water, giving a true hot spring experience where you can relax and relieve fatigue. There is also a sauna available. The staff are polite and helpful. The highlight is definitely the breakfast! There are many different side dishes to choose from, making it hard to decide what to eat. Everything is delicious, especially the crab and salmon roe bowl with plenty of salmon roe! And you can have seconds! The cost performance is also surprising. There are rooms available from 5000 yen for one person. For two people, it is 9000 yen per night. Breakfast is 1800 yen per person with the crab and salmon roe bowl included (all-you-can-eat). Highly recommended, so definitely check it out! By the way, I have already made a reservation for the cherry blossom season in spring! 13200 yen for 2 people including breakfast.

Breakfast buffet with ikura (salmon roe) donburi. Of course, since it's a buffet, there are various Japanese dishes available. While nothing in particular stands out, the ikura donburi, which you can have seconds of, provides a high level of satisfaction. The photo shows the second serving, which I asked to be reduced to one-third as I was already quite full. It was a very enjoyable breakfast. Additionally, the hotel had an amazing sauna. The complimentary ice cream, Yakult, and late-night soba after soaking in the hot spring were also appealing features.

After stopping by a friend's house on the way back from my regular haunt with cans of beer in hand and playing with their cat, I lost track of time and forgot to go back to my usual inn until it was too late for the happy hour beer. The hot spring inn usually offers a free beer service after bathing, but this time I missed out because the serving time had been moved up an hour due to the state of emergency. I didn't even bother to read the explanation. The night without free beer at the inn felt like a fallen angel without wings. I was tempted to open the fridge in the room, which had Kinmugi, Tris Highball, and Lemon Sour, but I knew I would be breaking the rules and risk getting banned from the inn. As I looked at the sign below the words "Food is the source of life" pleading for the end of the drink service, I couldn't help but feel resentful towards the fridge full of beer cans.

This is a frequently used accommodation option. The recommended points are the cleanliness and the black hot spring bath, which gives a sense of a real hot spring. The hotel requires guests to take off their shoes inside, which some may like or dislike. Also, you can take beautiful photos of the Skytree and the tower of Senso-ji Temple. I had breakfast here for the first time.

The breakfast buffet with a satisfying variety of dishes is perfect for those who don't need lunch. The selection of seafood is abundant, and you can enjoy a luxurious seafood bowl. It's fun to see local specialties on the menu as well. Thank you for the delicious meal.

This is my second time here, but it's my third time overall. When I checked in, I told the staff that I didn't need a tour of the facilities because "it's my third time already." It feels like coming home. I want to soak in the hot springs until the height of summer, so this place is becoming my regular haunt. After quickly leaving the bar that closes at 8pm, I returned to the hotel and eagerly awaited the complimentary late-night soba and a can of beer for guests. I arrived at the restaurant on the first floor at 9:30pm, where many other guests were also waiting for the late-night snack. It felt like a first-come, first-served situation, but as long as you got a numbered ticket, you were guaranteed a serving. Last time I had a highball, but tonight I felt like having a Kinmugi beer. It reminds me of the commercial where Satomi Ishihara says the taste changes with the seasons in "Shunkashuutou" (four seasons).

Accommodation record and night-crying soba record only. "Natural hot spring Ryouno-yu Onsen Hotel Nono", a budget business hotel in the Dormy Inn group. It is convenient for simply sleeping or taking a nap due to the check-in time for late-night appointments. "Night-crying soba", one of the group's specialties. It is made in the style of traditional street vendor Chinese soba with soy sauce soup and comes with ice candy as a service after bathing. The price for 2 people for 1 night is 6,800 yen, including access to natural hot springs. Located near Asakusa and Hanayashiki, making it convenient for sightseeing. It may be the first time seeing Hanayashiki from above. (By Kyonatsu Shuukuu, 2021.7.25) (7 reviews/3.09)

One of the few natural hot springs in Tokyo is located right in front of Hanayashiki, very close to the drinking district. The hot spring's large bath has soft black water, giving a true hot spring experience. It makes your skin feel smooth. The highlight is definitely the breakfast! There are many types of small dishes, making it hard to choose which one to eat. They are all delicious, and the crab and salmon roe rice bowl is filled with plenty of salmon roe! Plus, you can have seconds for free! The most surprising thing is the cost performance. There are cheap rooms starting from 5,000 yen for one person. Each room also has a shower, so you can feel at ease. Staying for two people costs 8,000 yen/2 people. Breakfast is 1,800 yen/person with a crab and salmon roe bowl (seconds allowed). Highly recommended, so definitely check it out! By the way, I have already made a reservation for the cherry blossom season in spring. 12,000 yen/2 people with breakfast included.

I always stay overnight when I go to my favorite izakaya in Tachikawa or Nihon-tsutsumi. Since I commute from Saitama, it's tough to take a two-hour train ride home when I'm drunk, so staying overnight is safer, and my family agrees. I have a long history of staying in luxury hotels, but recently I have been staying in the Asakusa Rokku area, which is within walking distance of most izakayas in Nihon-tsutsumi. I have used the Richmond Hotel a lot, which overlooks Hoppy Street from the window, but recently I stayed at this brand new hotel next to it for the first time. Hotels with the premium brand "Oyado Nono" from the Dormy Inn series are located nationwide and have a traditional Japanese inn feel with a solid natural hot spring bath. In particular, in Tokyo, staying at a hotel in the same series allows you to enjoy a travel atmosphere while in the city. In Asakusa, when you go up to the front desk, you take off your shoes at the entrance and put them in a shoe locker with a key. The entire hotel is covered with artificial tatami flooring (waterproof) on all floors, so you can walk around the hotel barefoot in your socks from the guest rooms to the breakfast area and the large bath. I experienced this design at a hotel in Sakaiminato, Tottori Prefecture, so even though it had been a while, I was very excited. The Dormy Inn series is known for its excellent service, such as the "night soba" service, which is free for guests after 9:00 pm. I have stayed in many Dormy Inn hotels, but I have never eaten it once. Maybe because I was already full from drinking and returning, or it was already past the service hours. This time, I finally ate it as I had planned, and it was great. In the afternoon and the next morning, guests who use the large bath are provided with free mini ice cream and lactic acid drinks. From 9:00 pm to 11:00 pm, each person is served one canned alcoholic drink for free! I had a very comfortable stay not only because of such services but also because of the accommodation price. When I made a reservation through a certain accommodation booking site, the actual payment on the day was 3,570 yen for a single room, even though it was originally 5,500 yen! I'm still not very familiar with the GoTo campaign, but is it related to that? It's funded by the government, but it's still taxpayer money, right? Such convenient cheapness won't last long. But I will definitely use it again. The concept is "a place to live," and if I could live there, I would want to!

A new hotel called "Nono" with a Japanese-style concept in the Dormy Inn group. The breakfast features a luxurious seafood bowl and roast beef, both delicious! The other dishes are not buffet style, but served individually wrapped for infection control. The complimentary night soba served in the evening is consistently delicious. This night soba has a comforting taste with a Japanese touch. The hotel also offers one free bottle of alcohol and fruit service in the room, providing impeccable service.

This time, I stayed at "Tennen Onsen Ryoun no Yu Yado Asakusa" in Asakusa. The inn is located right in front of Asakusa Hanayashiki, so you won't get lost. This inn is operated by Kyoritsu Maintenance, known for the nationwide business hotel chain Dormy Inn. The concept is a high-quality Japanese-style Dormy Inn, where you take off your shoes at the entrance and store them in a locker before entering. The entire building is tatami-floored, from the lobby to the rooms. Yado no Yu has opened in Tokyo last July, following Sakaiminato, Toyama, Osaka, and Nara, aiming for the Olympics. I have stayed at Sakaiminato and Nara before, so I was looking forward to visiting Yado no Yu again. However, due to the pandemic, the number of guests has decreased, and most guests are currently domestic travelers only, which is a bit lonely. The on-site facilities feature the familiar in-house hot spring with black water commonly seen in Tokyo, providing a smooth and very good bath. This time, I did not have breakfast, but they are improving the buffet breakfast to adapt to the pandemic, so it should be safe to enjoy now. Although I didn't have the usual night soba because I returned to the inn late, there was a welcome fruit in the room's refrigerator, which I enjoyed in the morning while looking at the Skytree. Thank you for the delicious meal and hospitality. I will stay again if I have the opportunity. ☆3.00

It was delicious. I ate too much.

It was delicious.
