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.

Travel + Leisure "The hotel is set in Shibuya's tallest skyscraper, just west of Harajuku." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Shibuya’s only high-end luxury hotel boasts huge rooms, stylish interiors, kaiseki restaurants, bars, a jazz club, and Noh Theater."
Time Out "It may be outshone in the luxury market by the myriad new entrants, but the Cerulean is Shibuya’s lone top-end establishment." Full review
Star Service "This property is within a five-minute walk southwest of Shibuya Station, a major commuter nucleus for the Yamanote Line and trains to Yokohama and other outlying areas." Full review

Staffers are equally out of touch, often forgetting special requests.
Fodor's "Perched on a slope above Shibuya's chaos, the Cerulean Tower has a cavernous yet bustling lobby filled with plenty of attentive, English-speaking staffers." Full review
Afar Magazine "Interiors mix Western and Japanese aesthetics. Simple, unfussy guest rooms have calming colors; some have unobstructed views of Mount Fuji in the distance." Full review
Michelin Guide "This 40-storey tower comes into view as soon as you leave the station and is one of the landmarks of Shibuya."
