Assuming you can find it, be sure to have a drink or meal at the 39th-floor Top of Shinagawa; its views of Tokyo Bay and the city are among the best in town.
Fodor's "Just a three-minute walk from JR Shinagawa Station, the Prince is a sprawling complex that's part hotel (with four towers) and part entertainment village." Full review
Star Service "Because of its proximity to Shinkansen and commuter lines, it's popular with midrange business travelers during the week. A wide range of entertainment diversions bring family vacationers on weekends." Full review
Lonely Planet "Set in a large entertainment complex in front of Shinagawa Station, the Prince has thousands of rooms housed in several towers, though singles are cramped." Full review

"About 2km north of Asakusa in the Sanya area, the minimalist and modern Andon Ryokan is fabulously designed in form and function." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Enjoy the free tea and coffee here while taking in the compact design of this ultramodern ryokan."
Time Out "It bills itself as ‘Tokyo's first designer ryokan’, but you'd probably do better to think of Andon as a high-end backpacker hostel." Full review
OysterBudget
"Andon Ryokan is a very basic but clean budget hotel that's popular with young travelers and is conveniently located within walking distance of the subway." Full review
Travel + Leisure "An updated version of a traditional ryokan, this is a small inn with only 24 rooms--all filled with antiques hand-selected by the owner." Full review
The Telegraph7.0
"Sleep on a futon in this modern take on a traditional ryokan inn, with budget rooms and friendly service in residential eastern Tokyo." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "Not far from Ueno and Asakusa, it's a streamlined nod to traditional inns." Full review
Independent "In Taito – not far from sightseeing spots like Ueno and Asakusa – this ryokan (inn), aimed largely at non-Japanese travellers, has modest tatami mat guestrooms with futons"
