HOTEL LiVEMAX Asakusabashi Ekimae Reviews

The room was generally clean, and the window couldn't be opened, which is typical for most Japanese hotels. The price was good, and the front desk offered Chinese and English service. The overall experience was decent. The only pain point is that most Japanese hotels only allow check-in after 3 PM, which is quite tiring 🥲

Located conveniently between three train stations, it's just a two-stop ride to Tokyo Station. From there, you can easily reach Shinjuku or connect to the wider subway network. The staff were incredibly helpful; my door wouldn't lock for some reason, and a staff member came up immediately to assist. There was enough space for me to open both my 28-inch and 20-inch suitcases. And of course, it had my favorite microwave and fridge, which was super convenient!

The hotel's location near the subway is incredibly convenient, with a FamilyMart and 7-Eleven right across the street, plus a drug store nearby – that's really fantastic. The only downside is that the room is small, and the bed is even smaller; it's really cramped for two people 😰. But overall, I still had a great trip, thank you!

The room was quite small; I couldn't even fully open a large suitcase. It was adequate for one person, though, and had all the necessary facilities. The location was excellent, very close to the subway station, and surrounded by restaurants, which was super convenient. I'd definitely recommend it for a business trip. On a side note, the taiyaki shop next to the hotel wasn't great; the taste was pretty ordinary.

good location, average service, has umbrella for hotel's guests.

Close to the station, which was really convenient. The hotel was clean, hygienic, comfortable, and cozy. It had a bathtub and all the necessary toiletries. The service was excellent. Getting around by train was easy, and there were plenty of restaurants right outside. Super convenient!

The room is tiny. If you open a 29-inch suitcase, the door basically can't open fully, or at best, only half-open. The window doesn't open. The bathroom has a deep bathtub, which is a plus. However, the hotel's Wi-Fi is very unstable, and breakfast is a really unappetizing bento box with a drink. On the other hand, the location is genuinely good. It's very close to the Asakusabashi exit, and there are drugstores nearby for quick restocking, plus a FamilyMart and 7-Eleven.

Even before check-in, I was able to leave my luggage at the front desk. Check-out was super convenient. The hotel is very close to the station and a straight shot to get there. There's a Matsuya nearby, making dining easy. Plus, there's a FamilyMart right across the street with delicious fried chicken and milk!

Just one subway stop to Akihabara and one stop to Narita Airport. The AC in the room blows strong and cold. These points are all better than France. Not bad.

Always a pleasant staying in this hotel. Not far from all the tourist spots, but at the same time not to crowded when it comes to tourist staying on this side of Tokyo. Transportation around this area is super easy to use or navigate. Whether you are travel by Bus or the underground, you will be able to find your way to your next destination. Front desk is super helpful and this area is also very quiet at night.

This hotel is suitable for a few nights' stay. It's close to the subway and eateries. The only downside I can point out is the dark rooms.

The room was incredibly small and had a very odd layout. Plus, the front desk staff couldn't speak English.

The taiyaki shop next door is delicious, and the hotel is also close to the subway exit.

Every single window in this entire hotel is sealed shut. The moment I stepped into the room, I was hit with a strong curry and tobacco smell. The air circulation was non-existent, relying solely on a single air purifier. The electric kettle in the room was sticky to the touch – I can only imagine what else it's been used for besides boiling water. And the duvet? This is a hotel, can't they properly clean their bedding? It felt like they just rinsed the dark-colored duvet with water as a half-hearted attempt. After it dried, it had a weird disinfectant-like smell. As for the service, it was equally poor. Any question I asked was met with a perfunctory, dismissive response. In my 40+ years, this is the first time I've ever encountered such a hotel. Aside from the good location, it's absolutely useless. Out of 5 stars, I'm giving it 1, and that's only because of the location.
