Stayed here for our last few days in Japan, having already stayed in a different ryokan in Tokyo a few weeks before (Katsutaro Annexe). The area is not as nice as most other areas we went to in Tokyo but we got used to it. The ryokan itself is very stylish but the rooms are very small. This in itself... more

We stayed here for 3 nights, and had a great time. The staff is very friendly (and more importantly) very fluent in English. They have a nice little breakfast for 500 yen and even a traditional tea ceremony demonstration. It's a bit of a walk to the subway, but for the price it's worth it. I would have given it... more

this is the first time for me & my boyfriend coming to japan. i picked up Andon for the accomondation because it is cheap and convenient to go to the center of tokyo. the staff is quite friendly, rooms are very clean and also breakfast was sooo Good! some of people say that rooms are quite small but how can... more

I have put only three for the location, but this is because it is quite away out from the centre of Tokyo. But it is worth it! Tokyo is so large and expensive, that a place like this is a real find. The area is an unpretentious working-class district and there are some lovely little noodle-bars and karaoke places with... more

This is a great little ryokan and a great price too. Traditional with a modern twist. Small but very functional rooms and comfortable japanese style futon beds. The staff are lovely, and the western style breakfast of eggs toast and jam for a mere 350 yen is spot on. There is free internet and the area is perfect for transport... more

It's a great hotel - the property is like a traditional bed and breakfast - the rooms are small but has good facilities. The property is run by friendly staff who speak excellent English (by Japanese standards) and it is a short (10 minute) walk from the metro station. When I go back to Tokyo again I will be looking... more

We went to Japan for business and decided to extend a few days to see some of the sights. We had only intended on staying in the Minowa area for a day, so we called Andon and made a reservation for a Friday night. I called to confirm the reservation, and the staff was very friendly and responsive. After asking... more

Andon Ryokan was a pretty nice place to stay. The rooms were clean and affordable, the staff was quite friendly, and the breakfast was delicious. Probably my favorite part of staying there was going downstairs for breakfast and meeting everyone else staying in the hotel! My only issue with the Andon Ryokan was its design. It has an ultra-modern feel... more

Andon is such a find. I originally booked it because it was the best-priced ryokan I could find (within reasonable distance of the center of Tokyo), but it turned out to be the best place I stayed in Japan. Andon is an artsy, modern version of a traditional ryokan. You'll get the traditional stuff - the slippers, the tatami mat... more
