Rough Guide "Asakusa's grandest hotel... the rooms are less memorable than the public areas. but are reasonably spacious and boast great views from the higher floors."
Frommer's "It's a good place to stay if you want to be in Tokyo's old downtown but don't want to sacrifice any creature comforts." Full review
Lonely Planet "If you’re not into ryokan, the Asakusa View is the ritziest Western-style hotel around." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Overlooking one of Tokyo's most famous shrines, the Asakusa View is a classic downtown Tokyo hotel, complete with an impressive marble lobby and crystal chandeliers." Full review
DK Eyewitness "As the name suggests, the views of neighboring rooftops and nearby Senso-ji Temple from the comfortable Japanese-style rooms are of an older Tokyo."
Time Out "With its uniformed staff and marble lobby somewhat incongruent with this downtown, working-class neighbourhood, the Asakusa View boasts a fairly high standard of accommodation." Full review
Fodor's "Upscale Western-style accommodations are rare in Asakusa, so the Asakusa View pretty much has this end of the market to itself." Full review

"It's hard to beat the Asakusa View Hotel's great panoramas of such Tokyo landmarks as the Skytree and Senso-ji Temple -- even distant Mount Fuji on a good day." Full review

Rough Guide "Rooms have nice Japanese design touches, such as shoji (paper screens) on the windows."
Fodor's "A short walk from the megalithic Tokyo Metropolitan Government Office, the Hilton is a particular favorite of Western business travelers." Full review
Insight Guides "Set among the skyscrapers of west Shinjuku, the rooms are Western in style, but with Japanese accents, all with modem lines and cable TV."
Michelin Guide "Bedrooms at this 38-storey hotel, with its distinctive S-shaped wave, come in a simple, modern style with Japanese touches."
Lonely Planet "Caters mainly to a business clientele... the shōji (sliding rice-paper screens) on the windows were designed to remind disoriented jetsetters that they’re in Tokyo." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Has many excellent facilities including an indoor swimming pool, Jacuzzi and rooftop tennis courts."
Time Out "The standard of service is high. For business travellers, the hotel offers five executive floors... one of few Tokyo hotels to have its own tennis courts." Full review
Star Service "Set at the northeast corner of Shinjuku Central Park, this property faces the Hyatt Regency, 200 m south of the Nishi-Shinjuku subway station and 200 m north of the Tocho-mae subway station." Full review

Daring guests can try the authentic washitsu rooms designed like those of a traditional ryokan with tatami mats on the floor and a separate living room; while others may choose just to take a peek before slumbering in their pillow-top bed.
