Hello Morghan. We stayed in Tokyo as a family of 4 in Mimaru Tokyo Asakusa station hotel. We did not stay in the accessible room, but I know they do have one. We stayed in a family room, which was step free. My son can take a few steps though so you would need to check if you could get into the bathroom or toilet. The hotel were very good at sending photos and measurements for doorways when asked. We loved the area and there was so much to do here.
