A Unique Stay in the Spirit of Sumo
Looking for original accommodations in Tokyo? In the heart of Asakusa, Stay SAKURA Tokyo Asakusa Yokozuna Hotel offers guests a one-of-a-kind opportunity to experience the world of sumo wrestling. Formerly a sumo training stable called Kokonoe-beya, this hotel retains much of its original structure and authentic details, blending traditional Japanese culture with modern comforts.
Stay like a champion
Upon arrival, you will be welcomed by an impressive handcrafted shimenawa (sacred rope) specially created by the artisans behind Izumo Shrine’s large Shimenawa. The interior is filled with references to the rich traditions of sumo culture: room plaques bear the names of renowned yokozuna (Highest rank), and rankings appear in unexpected places, bringing the spirit of Edo to life.

The hotel offers several types of rooms designed for comfort and cultural immersion. All are conveniently equipped with kitchen and cooking utensils, and some can accommodate up to six people.

Each room is thoughtfully crafted, incorporating elements of the hotel’s sumo heritage while ensuring a restful stay.
Explore Asakusa’s Vibrant Atmosphere
In addition to its distinctive design, the hotel’s location is ideal for visiting Asakusa's most famous attractions, such as Sensoji Temple and Nakamise-dori Street. You can also immerse yourself in local culture by browsing artisan shops, tasting traditional snacks, or enjoying the nostalgic atmosphere of Tokyo's old downtown.
