Ryokan Katsutaro Review

Established four decades ago, this small, simple, economical hotel is a five-minute walk from the entrance to Ueno Koen (Ueno Park) and a 10-minute walk from the Tokyo National Museum. The rather spacious rooms, of which the quietest are in the back, away from the main street, have traditional tatami flooring that the futon bedding is rolled out on. The largest rooms can accommodate up to five people, and the lobby includes computers with Internet access.
