“A sophisticated hotel in the atmospheric eastern Asakusa district, moments from the iconic iconic Kaminari-mon Gate. Contemporary rooms boast fabulous views of either Sensoji or Tokyo Skytree. A slick French fusion restaurant, hip cocktail bar and excellent price tag make this hard to beat. ”

The Gate Hotel Kaminarimon

A sultry and inexpensive design hotel in Asakusa, Tokyo’s old ‘pleasure district’, just opposite the Thunder Gate entrance to the city’s oldest temple complex, Sensoji. Good value if you want a stylish stay in an atmospheric corner of eastern Tokyo. French fusion cuisine is served in its slick restaurant.
