It was a business type room on the 8th floor.With a sit-stand desk, Aeron chair, and a nice view from the window, you'll feel good.The window is not open.The communication speed of Wi-Fi for business type rooms is sufficient at 300MB or more.This room had a private shower instead of a bathtub.The size and facilities are good.There is a Nescafe coffee machine.There was no noise and the view was good.Runners line both banks of the Sumida River, boats pass by, trains cross the iron bridge, and you can enjoy the city's waterside scenery.

Although it is said to be a 4-star hotel, it is not a 4-star hotel at all. There is a fence between the road and the hotel entrance, so you have to get drenched in the rain when unloading and loading luggage on rainy days. A hotel with very unappealing breakfast.

Travel to Tokyo for three-day weekend in September!It was great to use the Gate Hotel in Kyoto, so I visited Ryogoku with high expectations!Good location! Near JR Ryogoku Station, in front of Kokugikan, and just below the water bus stop. Convenient!It was right around the time of the September Sumo Tournament, so there were a lot of people.However, since the September event was being held, the breakfast included the usual Eck Benedict, French toast, and smørrebrød (an open-faced sandwich available only in Ryogoku), as well as chanko nabe!Chanko from the morning! I thought so, but I guess I'll just order it (lol) The Chanko Nabe was quite large, but it was delicious and I finished it all😆I even ate the croissant!In the evening, we went to the rooftop lounge for guests only, and had a drink while looking at the Sumida River and Sky Tree.It was so wonderful that it was a winner!I thoroughly enjoyed the hotel 😊
