I stayed here for the entire of March. I spent a decent amount of time exploring the area, walking along the river, going to Yodobashi etc. Really like this area of Tokyo but the morning rush to the city center is quite rough.

This is where I stayed when I went to Tokyo and I loved it! It was a quiet but not boring part of town. I stayed at the APA Hotel and I loved walking around Ryogoku at night. Foolishly, I saved my visit to the Sword Museum for my last day there without realizing it was closed that day so I only got to see the first floor exhibits which are apparently still open when the museum itself is closed.

I love Ryogoku! I stayed at Pearl Hotel in Ryogoku last year. It was reasonably priced and clean. Highly recommended. My husband and I had ramen and gyoza at the restaurant under the train line near Ryogoku Station. And we went to the Sumida Hokusai Museum. Highly highly recommended! Hokusai was the ukiyoe artist who painted "Great Wave." John, you can create one-hour RU-vid video just with the museum.

My family and I stayed in Ryogoku twice in our Japan trip in 2018. I agree, seems like a very liveable. I chose it because the accomodation was very affordable for a family of four. Accomodation was nice, clean and definitely close to everything we wanted to see. I liked that it seems to be a quiet section of Tokyo as well. Great video John! I was hoping you would cover this area one day.

Wow John, I absolutely loved this livestream. Ryogoku indeed looks like a gorgeous little ✨Gem💫 as it has such a unique vibe to it. Can’t wait for your ‘Special Anniversary’ reunion with Kyosumi Shirakawa in June! Having a lovely cup of relaxing Coffee (@Tiny Paradise & Arise), and a quite peaceful stroll on Fukagawashiryokan-Dori. ☺️ Ps. I also remember how much you enjoyed that snack at that little bakery! 👀 My eyes are wide open, my body is having palpitations, and I’m all ready and set! 👍

I stayed at that tall APA on my first trip to Japan last year and it was by far the best out of the 4 hotels I stayed at. Staying there again in July and I've paid extra for a top floor room for that Lost In Translation style view on the cheap less than £60 a night (that's probably at least 3-4x cheaper than equivalents in London!)

Hi John. I have always been impressed with the cleanliness of the streets and alleyways of Japanese cities. Several years ago, BBC designated Japan as the cleanest country in the world. This reputation is very well warranted. Since I have Japanese and Irish heritage, visiting both countries from Western Canada on separate occasions was a most rewarding experience. We ate in sushi and udon restaurants in every city we visited. It was a gastronomic dining adventure. Your videos are superbly entertaining and informative. Thank you for featuring:Leo and Kanae in your videos. You have a beautiful family. From Canada 🇨🇦 with 💌📥.

2 spots not to miss in the area: Fukagawa Edo Museum (Edo-Tokyo museum is closed for reno) take a LUUP e-bike or bus from the station ... & ... Ryōgoku Edo NOREN with best value dinning upstairs and photo op 📸 While I've loved visiting the area a few times over my 7 trips to Tokyo I wouldn't say it's a convenient area to stay/launch from to explore Tokyo. For me, staying in the areas in the far north of Yamamote line are quieter, cheaper, with less tourists and a more local vibe without having to transfer trains onto the city loop line. On my March Tokyo stay there my hotel room was US$37 single a night with microwave, cooktop, fridge, shower/toilet with railway and subway stations 300m away. Hard to beat 😊 Japan trip #10 next week 🤗

In all my trips, I spent some nights in Ryogoku, and I enjoy it! It’s two stations from Akihabara, that’s nothing. I don’t usually like APA hotels, but the one near the sumo hall is a cut above. I also like a bar there, Pop Eye Beer Club. Their happy hour has free food with drinks, and their yakisoba style spaghetti is fantastic.

Ryogoku area might be my favourite area to stay in Tokyo during a trip, at least of the areas I've stayed at. It's within a walking distance of multiple different city centers/areas and Chuo-Sobu + Oedo lines can get you to most other main areas conveniently. Yet, it's also quiet and relatively inexpensive to stay at. Now there isn't a whole lot to do at Ryogoku specifically but that's almost beside the point of staying there.

We stay near this area all the time except closer to Morishita Station. Oedo and Shinjuku lines out of Morishita make it easy to get around to just about anywhere. We like the quiet neighborhood and more of like living in Japan instead of a tourist area. Many local good eats and the typical chain restaurants. Shibuya and Shinjuku are nice to visit, but not so nice to stay if you want something quiet.

Ah, that brings me back a year. That what exactly where I was staying last year in August. It is super conveniently located, although due to proximity to Akihabara one might up there more often than one would like. 😬 Stayed in the APA Hotel which is nice and affordable, even has an Onsen in the basement (and a Kombini), also a pool but that costs extra (which I didn't understand so we didn't use it).

I've recently stayed in a nearby neighborhood and was lucky to see Sumo wrestlers in yukata, riding their bycicles! Such a charming area and I think Sumida-ku in general is a great place to stay. It is not as trendy and fashionable as Shinjuku or Shibuya, it felt more like a working class city, but I definitely enjoyed its laid-back vibe. The children were also very friendly and would say hi to me in the park.

In the era of reconstruction after the 1923 Kanto earthquake, Tokyo used a lot of steel structures not just in new bridges, but also railway station facilities. Ryogoku station east exit building is a good example where you could see steel columns inside. Another good example is Akihabara platforms 5 and 6, the Sobu Line platforms.
