SUMIRE Good access to Skytree shopping mall and Asakusa! Convenienct location for tourists! A 70 year old traditional Japanese townhouse located in well known downtown, Mukojima, Tokyo. The house belongs to my husband who spent his childhood there. We are university professors, and the house was too small for us to live with our three children and lots of books, so we have never lived there. After 30 years, I found it quite cool as it looked remaining very nostalgic, which brought me back to the nice and old days of Japan. Now it is very rare to find this kind in Tokyo. The house was renovated nicely with its original taste. There are two bedrooms; one with a double bed and the other with two singles. The bedrooms on the second floor are floored with tatami mats. There are small but cozy living space and a kitchenette in the first floor. Bathroom with a bathtub and shower head. You will find the 'washlet' in WC. Since the house was built right after WWII, everything is made small according to the Japanese people's frame at that time. If you are way taller than 6 feet, you may find it a bit close and uneasy. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car not required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Ice maker - Kitchenette - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Bidet - Hair dryer - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Tatami (woven mat) flooring ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Video library ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - No elevator (single-level property) - Smoking not allowed - Note from host: our policy is STRICTLY non smoking ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In the city center - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near an outlet shopping mall - Near the bay - On a river ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Motor boating nearby - Theme park nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Unit size: 646 square feet ## Similar properties ![TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/36000000/35670000/35662500/35662458/4a5631f9.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Famous Japanese Gardens by walk Toshima - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi 9.6 Exceptional 58 reviews CA $181 CA $315 total Nov 16 - Nov 17 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-16&endDate=2025-11-17&selected=35662458&PinnedHotelID=35662458&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/94000000/93830000/93824000/93823973/47e45066.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### ASAKUSA HOUSE - ASAKUSA HOUSE / Sumida-ku Tokyo Sumida - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 7.8 Good 14 reviews CA $168 CA $379 total Nov 12 - Nov 13 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-12&endDate=2025-11-13&selected=93823973&PinnedHotelID=93823973&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, electric kettle, toaster](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/89000000/88760000/88753400/88753381/4a1e3a05.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### TOKYO SUNNY 2 bedroom 2 to 4 persons family \*Super Fast WiFi\*/ Long term stay Toshima - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 9.6 Exceptional 34 reviews CA $207 CA $332 total Nov 3 - Nov 4 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-03&endDate=2025-11-04&selected=88753381&PinnedHotelID=88753381&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![TV, books, offices](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/72000000/71810000/71806100/71806010/5e6c58a5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 8 minutes walk from Shibuya station!

There's no other house like it in the neighbourhood. The proximity to the local shrine also adds to its charm. We loved the location - away from the hustble and bustle of major tourist areas but well connected via Hikifune and Sky tree station making it easy to get to destinations.We stayed during winter, and whilst there are heaters, the house isn't well insulated, and on the ground floor in particular and it can get rather cold. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay and our hosts were also great and accommodating. ##### Haekal H. Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### DANIEL G.

A lovely cafe nearby where we had several leisurely breakfasts - lots of places to buy groceries - close to the Skytree and Hikifune for subway rides. Just a lovely vibe here. The house was very clean, the beds were great. It is very noisy but the earplugs were a saviour! Shower is small but loved the warm toilet seat! Really no livingroom but the two chairs worked for what we needed. It embodied a history of a bygone era and I would happily come back again. The hosts were very communicative and attentive.

There are two metro stops within easy walking distance...the big one at Tokyo SkyTree and a smaller neighbourhood station. The bus stops just around the corner and we used it for short rides. The convenience of The Family Mart just around the corner can not be underestimated. Communication with the owner is always punctual, informative and personal. I thoroughly enjoyed everything about this trip to Tokyo. Staying at traditional Sumire House made it special. ##### Wendy M. Stayed 10 nights in Feb 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Jeffrey S.

Instinctively prepared for Japan winter weather sleepwear Traditional home characteristcs include low doorways, and steep narrow 2nd level stairway. More functional living area on 2nd level than 1st. Complimentary ear plugs for sleeping appreciated due to proximity to busy road. Great modern washer/dryer. Relatively convenient (8-13 minute walk) to Skytree and Hikifune subway stations/local restaurants/Izakayas. Family Mart convenience store right next store and grocery store within a couple of blocks. Added/unexpected bonus of home being adjacent to neighborhood Shrine. ##### Jeffrey S.

We stayed 9 nights on our recent trip to Tokyo. It is convenient to Hikifune station but we usually walked to Oshiage Station as the trains were usually more convenient. The home is a bit older (1950s I believe) but it has some modern conveniences. There is an update bathroom, washer/dryer combo, and many updated kitchen appliances. It is a bit basic but has enough for 2-4 guests. There is also a tv avs dvd player. The beds are very comfortable. The windows are thin so you'll hear a lot of noise from the road and the trains. It didn't bother my wife and I who live in a busy area, but my mother in law used the ear plugs provided and had no issues. Each bedroom and the living room have separate ductless heaters/ac. There is a family mart next door and we picked up breakfast and snacks here to have in the house. The only drawback was being a tall person I did bonk my head about 12 times on the doorway between the kitchen and living room. But that's expected in older Japanese homes (I did the same in our machiya in Kyoto in 2018). I would recommend this house if you want to experience traditional Japanese home living. The location is convenient to train stations while being in a lovely residential area. There's a lovely temple right next to the house, a couple of times there were musicians and services being held. The owners were quite nice and quick to reply if we messaged with any questions. We would definitely stay here again. ##### Christopher L. Stayed 9 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dede C.

Apr 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful Family experience in Tokyo Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this traditional Japanese house. The location is near Oshiage Skytree station (10-15 minutes walk). This might not suit some as a location to get to tourist locations but it worked well for us.Contact before and during our stay from the owners was excellent and so helpful with restaurant information and local knowledge.The beds were very comfortable, kitchen had everything we needed to have some meals at home. Family Mart is right across the road.Height of the doorways might be a challenge for anyone tall as we all managed to forget at least once but it waa part of the charm. The staircase is also not for those with any mobility challenges.There is a temple in the surrounds of the house which was undergoing renovations when we were there but so beautiful.The house is close to a main road, so there is traffic noise at night but there are earplugs supplied and it really didn’t bother us.Easy bus ride nearby to Asakusa, walk to Sumida Riverwalk and Skytree.Our family thoroughly enjoyed our 6 night stay here, would absolutely recommend it for anyone wanting an authentic experience and hope that we can return someday. ##### Vicki L.

In der Nähe des SkyTree, mit der Möglichkeit zu Fuß über die Brücke nach Asakusa zu spazieren. Dass die Tür-Durchgänge etwas zu niedrig waren, hatten wir erwartet, Wir hatten allerdings in der Woche meist schlechtes Wetter und trotz guter Heizleistung der Klimananlagen war es in der Küche etwas zugig. ##### Hubert S.

It’s cozy and safe tucked away in an area filled with families. Everything you need is within easy walking distance, bus just out the door and two major stations a ten minutes walk. The owner is quick to reply to any needs and concerns. Have fun in Tokyo…we did! ##### Wendy M. Stayed 17 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pia S.

Very charming traditional house and nicely located, far enough from the commercial shopping areas but with good access. Family Mart across the alley. Only caveat - street noise. A good pair of ear plugs worked well for me. Super clean house, well-supplied with all the basics. Comfortable beds with warm comforters. Would definitely stay again. ##### Pia S.
