Guest from overseas

Kind and attentive service

Everyone was kind and highly professional. They were able to assist me in English, which made the whole experience reassuring. I recommend Wakana to anyone who wants to experience Japanese culture in Asakusa.

Married couple in their 30s

Thank you!

I’m 30 and booked the Couple Plan. I love renting kimono and have tried it several times in Asakusa, Kanazawa and Kyoto. Some shops only had kimono that felt inexpensive, which was disappointing. Wakana offered a pure-silk plan, so I hoped it would be different—and choosing this shop was absolutely the right decision. Even though we visited later in the afternoon, I found an elegant, understated kimono, and the otaiko obi knot was beautiful. The dressing and hairstyling staff worked efficiently and were all lovely.

Couple in their 20s

Every member of staff was wonderful!

This was my first visit to this rental shop. I’ve rented kimono several times before, but this was easily my favorite. Different staff members helped us choose our kimono, get dressed and style our hair, and every one of them was wonderful. They kept us smiling throughout. The kimono was secured so well that it stayed in place for our entire day of sightseeing. At the end, they gave us a photo with a handwritten message, which was truly touching. I would love to visit again. Thank you very much.

Kimono as a family

My son, in his 20s, and I, in my 50s, wore kimono together. We thought we might be late for our reservation, so we called ahead and received a very courteous response. Once we arrived, the team dressed us efficiently and made tasteful suggestions for the obi and obijime combinations. We were very pleased. They also took a commemorative photo and gave us the digital file, leaving us with a wonderful memory. Thank you very much.
