⛲Things to See near Richmond Hotel Premier Asakusa International🎠

  • Directly outside of the hotel is Don Quijote,

    which may be one of Japan's best and biggest discount store.

  • 🍻Asahi Super Dry Beer Hall - 10min walk🍻

    If you've been out drinking in Japan, there's a high chance you drank Asahi. Often referred to as the "golden poo building" this Asahi Super Dry Hall. The golden building next to it is the Asahi headquarters.
    Go inside and you'll see an Asahi beer history exhibition (1st floor), get to try new and limited kinds of beer at the Asahi Craftsmanship Brewery (2nd floor), and along with some restaurants and popular bars (22nd floor).
  • 🛍 Asakusa ROX - 3min walk🛍
    ROX is a big shopping and entertainment
    complex consisting of a main building
    and three annex buildings.
    In the basement, there is also
    a 24hr supermarket!

  • 🎢Hanayashiki (浅草やしき) - 3min walk🎢​
     The oldest amusement park in Japan!
    Hanayashiki opened as a flower park in 1853, 
    now it's operating as an amusement park with 20 kinds of attractions.
    Since it's so close to the hotel, 
    it's a good and new way to have fun experiencing an old side of Japan.

The main highlight though is that Richmond Hotel Premier Asakusa International is a 5min walk from Sensoji Temple (浅草寺, also known as Asakusa Kannon Temple)!! So you will be able to hang around there as early or late as you like.

  • The counter is equipped with a comprehensive translation commentary and multi-national service staff. If you want to get any information or make reservations at say the Ninja Restaurant or something, please ask them for assistance!
  • Normally getting membership cards while you travel isn't on your mind, however, we truly felt this one was worth it. It's a free card that gives you discounts, add points, and more importantly, lets you push back check-out time an hour (from 11am to noon) free of charge (normally costs 1000yen a day)!
