Akihabara Pet-friendly hotels in Tokyo, Japan

Remm Akihabara is the perfect spot to stay in Akihabara; it's right by both JR and Metro stops, has two convenience stores within a block (one of which is a 7/11, which gave me free ATM access), and has excellent sushi less than a block away (Ginzo).

very central for shops and train. excellent location. Very good Italian buffet lunch at weekend - very good value too. Room small but fine. No instant coffee in any of the Japanese hotels we stayed in, (so not a criticism of this hotel)- so if you want to have coffee in bed take your own. But excellent coffee in all the cafes and breakfast places.

My granddaughter is studying Japanese at High school, so I decided to take her to Japan to experience the real culture and food many tourists overlook. I have been there 13 times, but I could not have made a better choice of hotel. Yanagibasi Hotel was a superb place to stay. Tomoko's welcome when we checked in was heart warming. We immediately felt comfortable and relaxed as we chatted about our plans. Tomoko speaks good English, and her mother Sachiko did so much for us. A family type friendship quickly developed as we met Tomoko's baby and exchanged gifts with her mother. The cute young receptionist on saturday was very helpful with directions (sorry, I forgot your name), and we found the market and places I was looking for. We left with sadness as we could not meet Tomoko that day, but . . . "we will be back".

The rooms are nice and clean. The location is very convenient! Breakfast is nice!

I like the hotel. Large enough for a single person. Located very close to the shops in Akihabara. Quiet even though the hotel is next to the train rails. You can also get a taste of hot springs at the hotel too!

First problem was finding it, it's down an alley. Second, arrived at 6 AM but couldn't get in until 3 PM. Third, language barrier -- desk staff tried to help but no English at all. Fourth, room not clean enough; very cramped; also, one small pillow; couldn't figure out how to operate the heater. Pretty miserable. Advantages: location is very near train station and electric town; high-speed internet cable worked right away; fridge & microwave in room; good shower pressure & hot water. But overall, I don't think this is a good enough hotel for expedia to offer. I would have paid more for something more standardized.

Really close to 2 subway stations, Kuramae Station (the nearest) and Asakusabashi Station (about 1 km away). Staff barely speak english. If I want to communicate, mostly using google translate. It works, though. Near the Daily 24, Sukiya and Chikara Meshi (japanese rice beef bowl restaurant). Quiet environment. Wifi at all floors.

Great location. Fun experience. Shared bath, but it was clean and didn't have to wait for use. Walls are paper thin, but it adds to experience. If you are super sensitive about sound, bring earplugs or your ipod. Futon was comfortable and warm.

The room was clean and comfortable. The toilet was space-age. The service is friendly. The hotel is in an alleyway, but it still felt safe during the night. You can see the hotel sign from the station (in Japanese) and there's a 7-11 and places to eat in the alleyway. We requested a room on a higher floor, because we were concerned about train noises, but it turned out not to be a problem, because the trains stop after midnight everyday. It's a great place to stay if you're looking forward to visiting all the manga and anime stores in Akihabara. Note that to get to the hotel, you need to take the showa-dori exit, but to get to the otaku area, you need to take the Electric-Town exit from the train station.
