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.
