Simple rooms are soundproof, but I still think those that face away from Oike Dori are quieter; ask for one on a higher floor.

"Located just west of the Imperial Palace...offering bare-boned small rooms (all nonsmoking) with the basics of fridge, desks too small for any serious work, free Internet connections"
