The Gate Hotel Kaminarimon near Sensoji Temple
Direct subway ride from Narita Airport

One of the main tourist attractions in Tokyo is the Sensoji or Asakusa Temple, home to one of Tokyo’s most famous temples and a center for some of the city’s most famous restaurants. The entrance of the temple also has a collection of Japanese Street Food, so finding a hotel in this area is a huge benefit. The Gate Hotel Kaminarimon solves that problem by being right across the street from the temple!

Breakfast... When booking the hotel, you will have the option to include a breakfast meal. Let’s see what offerings they have at their breakfast area!

We went to try out the hotel breakfast on our morning here. For customers of the hotel, the cost is 2,160 JPY.  A breakfast set here consists of 1 main dish and unlimited sides at the salad bar. Their orange juice is freshly made, so make sure you give it a go!

A favorite of ours at the salad bar area is their croissants. Freshly baked, light, and fluffy, and served with some butter and jam.

 Main Dish options here are some of the items we ordered

Eggs Benedict : Poached Egg with Hollandaise Sauce served on an English Muffin with a side of salad.

French Toast : A thick slice of toast served with butter and maple syrup

Rice Benedict Cha-Zu-Ke : A very interesting fusion dish of Eggs Benedict and Ochazuke, a japanese rice dish served with tea, dashi stock, or water poured on top. This particular dish consists of a poached egg with hollandaise sauce, rice, chashu (Barbequed Pork), tomatoes, and other toppings.

For people who enjoy the fresh produce of Japan, there's a supermarket right below the hotel. OZEKI Super Market sells fresh seasonal fruits at the front of their store. When we visited in January, they had a variety of strawberries starting at only 400 JPY.

We’ve been getting a lot of questions regarding the best season to purchase Japanese Strawberries. The answer is during the Winter months.
