SUKIYAKI TRAVEL JAPAN
34,564 views
Tucked into the heart of Asakusa's shitamachi district, Vessel Inn Asakusa Tsukuba Express sits just a 6-minute walk from TX Asakusa Station — and only 3 minutes by train from Tokyo Skytree. With rates under ¥10,000 per night, this 13-floor, 175-room hotel punches well above its price class.
Rooms run 11–13m², thoughtfully designed with ample storage and blackout curtains. Highlights include a well-stocked amenity corner, a spacious lobby lounge, and — remarkably — completely free laundry machines on the premises. A shared kitchen on the 4th floor and an extensive free-loan service (neck pillows, pajamas, cooking tools) round out the guest comforts.
The real star? A breakfast buffet themed around Edo and Asakusa street culture: Fukagawa-meshi (rice simmered in clam dashi), fresh seafood rice bowls, festival-stall classics like takoyaki and yakitori, and Asakusa sweets — anmitsu, purin, and more. It's one of the most characterful breakfasts in Tokyo.
Steps from the hotel: Tokyo Solamachi (300+ shops, seasonal events), the Sumida River promenade, and the remarkable Yasaki Inari Shrine — home to 100 painted ceiling panels depicting the history of Japanese horsemanship, a must-visit in 2026, the Year of the Horse.

At the Taiwanese Night Market the lanterns iluminating variety of booths brought in amazing atmosphere and liveliness!
The breakfast was not less impressive than the food stalls - truly luxurious choice of seafood, fish, pickles, salads... even the festival food, man!!!
If the television is set opposite of the bed, rather than the right from the bed, it would be more comfortable to watch.
The "History of Horse Riding in Japan" is really cool. Just ask, does the temple provide any English translation?
