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

just back from a trip to Japan, Andon was our first stop when we arrived at Tokyo. I booked it off the back off good reviews on TripAdvisor and I wasn't disappointed. It's a little way out the centre in a more quiet area but there's nice temples and restaurants in a 15-20. min walk away. Personally after getting off... more

We stayed at the Andon for 6 nights in March 2009. It is a good value - the rooms are small but comfortable and clean, the breakfast is a good deal, the staff is very nice and all the rooms have internet access. However, it is quite loud - due to its modern design, the inn is all concrete and... more

While part of a study abroad program, I had the pleasure to say at the Andon Ryokan for nearly a month. The staff were so incredibly friendly and helpful each day as we basically shared the hotel as home with them. They went way above their duty as "staff" members in helping us plan trips, find good restaurants, and have... more
