Rough Guide
"This moderately priced hotel packs a surprisingly classy punch."
Frommer's
"Though quite classy (and pricey), the Marunouchi is lacking in facilities and services, placing it more squarely in the business-hotel category." Full review

For the best view ask for a room facing Tokyo Station, where triple-pane glass allows you to watch bullet trains silently glide by.
Concierge
"It's a very good value and an exceptionally convenient location, a stone's throw from the Narita Airport Express in the heart of a thriving business and shopping district."
Fodor's

Convenience is one reason to choose the Marunouchi Hotel, occupying the upper 11 floors of the Marunouchi Oazo Building and joining Tokyo Station via an underground walkway.
Michelin Guide

"Primarily a business hotel, it has limited facilities -- you are clearly paying for location here." Full review

Be sure to pick up the hotel's sightseeing leaflets at the concierge's desk, which give information on the city's top attractions, opening hours, and how to reach them from the hotel.
DK Eyewitness
"This top-of-the-range business hotel close to the Kabuki-za Theater is now a popular wedding reception venue."
Star Service
"Just south of the city's busiest shopping area, 200 m southwest of the Higashi-Ginza subway station, this property, built in 1987, is behind Matsuzakaya department store and near the Kabuki theater." Full review
i
The staff is attentive and well-trained, and management goes so far as to publish tourist leaflets to major attractions, which are given away free at the concierge desk (although placing special requests in advance may be difficult as the minimal staff is quite busy).

"It's a big, largely impersonal hotel, but it's comprehensive in scope with a Japanese restaurant, American restaurant, bars, full-scale gym, and small shops." Full review
