Concierge "Like most new hotels in Tokyo, the Conrad—a Hilton Worldwide hotel in the recently developed Shiodome area—sits high above the city."
Lonely Planet "The Conrad Hotel is definitely a new contender for the attention of upmarket travellers looking for that central, super-sophisticated base in Tokyo." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Located on floors 28—37 of the Tokyo Shiodome Building, this Conrad hotel is known for its minimalist style and expansive views." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The city views and aerial perspectives on to the green and watered Hama Rikyu Garden below, from this 37-story upmarket hotel, are unparalleled."

Star Service "It is connected to the subway station and other neighboring hotels and office buildings by an above-ground walkway that makes getting around the area extremely convenient." Full review

Rough Guide "Just off bustling Nakamise-dori, this smart little ryokan is... surprisingly affordable."
Frommer's "Whenever a foreigner living in Tokyo, soon to host first-time visitors to Japan, asks me to recommend a moderately priced ryokan in Tokyo, this is the one I most often suggest." Full review
Concierge "Guests have a choice of 16 Japanese-style rooms with tatami, futon mattresses, and a shared bath, or six en suite Western versions with beds."
Fodor's "Just off Nakamise-dori and inside the Senso-ji grounds, this small inn, with both Japanese- and Western-style rooms, could not be better located for a visit to the temple." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This beautifully maintained ryokan is adorned with paper screen windows and tatami mats."
Time Out "Barely 30 seconds from Asakusa’s market and temple complex, yet surprisingly peaceful, the Shigetsu offers a choice of comfortable rooms in Japanese and Western styles." Full review
Lonely Planet "South of Sensō-ji, this spotless and atmospheric ryokan has mostly Japanese-style rooms. The entire inn is immaculate." Full review
