“The Edo Sakura offers a slice of traditional Tokyo life. I appreciate the Machiya townhouse setting and the unique touch of preparing your own futon-it's a hands-on way to connect with Japanese customs. Its Taito location puts you in a historic area, though be prepared for a bit of a walk to the nearest subway.”
Silas ThorneEditor-in-Chief at Jptokyo
