This was the perfect introduction to my time here in Japan, and if I get the chance, I will come back. The staff were all very kind and helpful. The Japanese breakfast (I had the fish) was very delicious. The ryokan was quiet, though I always travel with wax ear plugs, and my sleep was very comfortable. I felt there was more than enough space for myself and my things in the room. The onsen was easy to book, I was lucky with lots of times to choose from, and it was very relaxing after a long travel. 10/10 would highly recommend for anyone looking for a quaint-yet-cool, thoughtful accommodation.

Favourite hotel in Tokyo
Third time staying at this hotel in Tokyo, and would stay again. Excellent welcome and service throughout our stay, with a clean comfortable tatami mat room, and situated near (half an hour walk) to Senso-ji temple. The breakfast is excellent, as is the private bath/ jacuzzi!

We liked the aesthetics, the antique collection, the manga murals, the background music, the tub, and the Japanese egg breakfasts were very good. One day we had the vegan breakfast and many of the steamed veggies were not that tasty. We got some great information about where to go nearby. I love my new Andon Ryokan shirt I bought there! Thanks!

What a gem! Super clean, adorable room with unique and beautiful shared amenities inc a sauna. My teem and I found it to be no trouble at all to share restrooms with other guests. Everyone was quiet and kind. Breakfast proved to be a special treat! Staff is amazing, gracious, helpful, and we had nice conversations with several other guests. Our stay here exceeded expectations!

Taka-san was friendly and in fluent English explained all the important stuff like where Jacuzzi, Showers, Breakfast, Tea etc were. Traditional breakfast was also nicely described.
He helped us dispose old luggage at extra cost, per regulation.
Good service. Clean place. Convenient location.

Property is located in a quiet residential area which was nice. Overall condition of property was good and amenities were all clean. I really appreciated the Japanese breakfast options as they were all delicious and freshly prepared. The only annoyance I found, really, was that the my bedroom door was pretty thin and I could easily hear my neighbors scuffling around and talk outside of my room as it was in front of the washroom/sink. This wasn't a problem in the morning as I was already awake, but found this to be quite annoying at night while trying to sleep. Thankfully I packed some earplugs which was a good enough solution. Otherwise, it was a pleasant experience and am glad to have finally stayed at a ryokan on my 4th visit to Japan.

So I'm going to start this review by saying that people need to learn how to be considerate and quiet in hotels, especially in spaces like this one. It's very small and there is not a lot of noise insulation so if you're talking super loudly, stomping around, and slamming doors, you're being a bother to everyone. Be considerate!
That being said, this place is a real gem. The rooms are small, but very cozy and the tatami mats were a nice touch. The futon was actually very comfortable and the pillows were customizable! Showers and bathrooms were always clean and there were enough available that we didn't have to wait ever. The private soaking tub was lovely. Oh and the breakfast was top notch. Nothing quite like fresh ume onigiri. Anyway, all in all we enjoyed our stay. We just wished people had been more considerate to the other guests noise wise.

Andon Ryokan is modernized to the point that it leaves very impersonal, cold impression. The room was spacious even for 3 futon mattresses but the walk to the shared bathroom was through a cold hallway (in March). To get to the showers you would have to climb industrial steel cold stairs with all your clothes change since the shower is on another floor. These trips were just cold, cold, - not enough heating. The bathrobes are not automatically given as it is in the pictures but you have to ask for them. The Japanese flip flops were given but without regards for the size: sometimes too small, sometimes too large, sometimes with straps so tight it was impossible to put your feet in them. The ryokan is rather at a distance to the metro, about 8 minutes walk, and the area is devoid of character, just bland buildings and highways. The person who met us at the ryokan reception spoke fast English but it was incomprehensible.
