The Tobu Railway terminal is a surface station, which occupies a portion of the Matsuya Department Store.

Although Asakusa is the most "central" terminal of the Skytree Line, it is connected to the next major terminal, Kita-Senju Station, by a length of track with sharp curves, beginning with the first stretch leaving the station, where trains have to turn 90 degrees to the right at a maximum speed of 15 km/h (9.3 mph) to cross the Sumida River.

The Tokyo Metro station is located underground to the south of the Tobu terminal.
