Ask for a room facing west for stunning views of Mt. Fuji.
Fodor's "Japanese refinement and a contemporary design come together perfectly at the Grand Hyatt—a tasteful and well-appointed hotel in the middle of... one of Tokyo's top entertainment areas." Full review
Lonely Planet "Architecturally open and bright despite its somewhat labyrinthine layout, the Grand Hyatt is warmly and gorgeously chic." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Luxurious rooms come with modern facilities. The blend of modern interior design and natural elements creates a tasteful ambience. Restaurants, a patisserie, and spa."
Condé Nast Traveler ""Beautiful and comfortable rooms" are contemporary in design, with high ceilings, light tones, and "wonderful toilets, and I'm not embarrassed to say that"." Full review
Time Out "Though it shares a celebrity buzz with its sister hotel the Park Hyatt, the effortlessly sleek Grand is pleasingly low-key." Full review
Star Service "This property counts on the many draws of Roppongi Hills to keep its rooms filled, but immediately gains a loyal following from all who stay here." Full review

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."
