Tokio hotellit lähellä Kokuritsu Kokkai Toshokan

Plussat: The hotel was excellent with helpful staff that spoke English very well.

Miinukset: We arrived late from a long flight and it took us a bit to figure out how to get to the lobby/front desk. It was very confusing finding the hotel lobby as it is located on the sixth floor.

Plussat: great location. 5 minutes from Akasaka-Mitsuke Metro, which has a restaurant alley right behind with 200+ options. hotel sits adjacent to aston martin dealership and 3 minutes walk from le creation de Narisawa; i.e. a posh neighbourhood. it's also within 10 minutes walk to at least three major greeneries in Tokyo.

Miinukset: late check-out is expensive at ¥1500 add'l per hour. elevator a bit slow.

Plussat: Bed was very comfortable, bathroom was extremely nice. Wifi worked great and was unlimited and free. Location was close to a subway stop that took you to all the Tokyo tourist attractions.

Miinukset: The Double room was very small, but that is expected for Tokyo. There wasn't a lot of night life going on around the hotel.

Plussat: The hotel is very nice, clean, and feels luxury, it provide very nice service. I am very much enjoying the stay there, it's safe area, next to the imperial palace, ask a lot of large companies, government office. the hotel is great, the staff is also welcoming and helpful, they offer luggage service too. So it works great if you have to travel to some other places, and you don't need to take big suitcase. For me, I have left my luggage there for over10 days! There are 24hour convenient store, drug store, cib camera store if you need shopping, also there are so many good restaurants karaoke for entertainment. Overall it's so nice. Seems all of the Japanese food you are think of would be converted, sushi, ramen, drinks, etc. not even bad than the tsukiji fish market.

Miinukset: The transportation is a little inconvenient, if you are using JR pass, then you need to take Tokyo metro or ginza line besides the JR yamatoe line. Travel wise normally costs a little more everyday. But maybe the Tokyo 3day pass might works better.

Plussat: Free upgrade to a larger room (we checked in fairly late). Late check out.

Miinukset: Unfortunately, they only had smoking rooms.

Plussat: This is a really convenient location for travelers. It's directly across the street from Akasaka-mitsuke Station, lots of Japanese and non-Japanese food options and some historic sites. If you can managed to get a room on the back side of the hotel, I would recommend it. My room was so quiet. It was perfect. The hotel staff were very nice. They were able to direct me to where I needed to go when I had to buy a few things for my trip. Getting there from Narita airport was easy. I just bought a ticket on the appropriate limousine bus for 3100 yen. Yes, that's slightly more expensive than the Keisei Skyliner, but it drops you off at the front door of this hotel. It's worth the extra 600 yen to not have to carry my luggage through the train stations from where the Keisei Line drops you off. And it's way cheaper than a cab.

Miinukset: Breakfast downstairs is quite pricey (about 2800 yen or so). Of course, it's not like you have to eat at the hotel. It's literally 4 doors down from a Tully's coffeeshop where you can have a decent breakfast and coffee for less than 700 yen.

Plussat: very convenient location; easy tour pick-up and airport bus; friendly staff

Miinukset: crowded hotel, small room, facility a bit aging

Plussat: Right on the subway line. great restaurants and bar. great spa

Miinukset: beds are very firm

Plussat: It was close to the station and some nice restaurants just outside the hotel.

Miinukset: We stayed on reward points as ambassadors. We were treated appallingly. The room was average for the type of hotel we were staying in. The staff were quite standoffish, considering we had just come from Intercontinental Delete repeated word Bay where the service was outstanding and we could not fault a single thing it was a huge disappointment to be treated like this. When we went for dinner in the restaurant we were not even offered a drinks or wine list the whole meal and they forgot my meal altogether. When they cleaned the room they left dirty dishes behind. I never complain about anywhere that I stay but it was enough to taint my holiday. When we checked out they did not even ask us how the stay was. We are Platinum members.

Plussat: The ANA Intercontinental is situation on Roppongi Dori, very close to the Roppongi district's busy night life. It has a metro line within a 10 minute walking distance as well connect to both Narita and Haneda airports. The concierge service was great, helped us out with tours to Mt. Fuji as well as to a small town in Tama City where we wanted to visit our old neighbors from Thailand. She went out of her way to call the friend and coordinate pick-up from the train station.

Plussat: The Intercontinental is a major chain and had a nice entrance and the rooms were clean. The rooms were decent size -- in fact, as I understand "spacious" -- for Tokyo.

Miinukset: 1. The Internet was intermittent and not very good. 2. The cost for the Internet was one of the priciest anywhere -- they charge 1620 yen (about US$16) per device. So, a phone and a laptop, my wife's phone and an iPad is 4 devices or $64/night. Needless to say, we did not activate internet for each device. Compare this to the Hyatt Regency Tokyo at $3/night per room (multiple devices), or free at the Kobe Sheraton, and free at the Kyoto Westin. 3. The plumbing was old, did not drain properly, had to run the cold water for a long time to get cold (rather than hot) water, and the non-Toto toilet seat was far inferior to the Toto Washlet seats in other hotels. 4. I have Acid Reflux and need to sleep with a raised head. I requested foam pillows at reservation time and again by email about 2 days before arrival. I was told they were booked and no foam pillows were available. So, don't count on any "accommodations". 5. The concierge was very helpful, BUT the lines to see the concierge were unreasonable (1/2 hour or more). Ultimately, we could only see the concierge about one-half of the times we tried.

Plussat: Breakfast buffet, a seating area in our room, and a bed off the ground. We had been on great tour staying Japanese ryokans which were a treat but good to getting back to western comforts.

Miinukset: Don't have any complaints

Plussat: Comfortable beds Restaurants in the hotel Close to the train station

Miinukset: Small room Hotel smells like smoke
