Because rates are the same no matter which way you face, be sure to request a room overlooking the garden.
Fodor's "A bustling complex in the center of Tokyo... the New Otani can feel frantic, but its best feature, a spectacular 10-acre Japanese garden, helps guests find sanctuary." Full review
Time Out "The New Otani sprawls like a mini metropolis over a vast area ten minutes’ walk west of the Imperial Palace." Full review
Lonely Planet "There’s a whiff of pretension about the New Ōtani, but it’s justified, loaded as it is with large, luxurious rooms, upmarket restaurants, boutiques and gift shops." Full review

Star Service "300 m south of Yotsuya Station and convenient to the Yotsuya, Nagata-cho and Akasaka-mitsuke subway stations, Tokyo's most substantial hotel offers something for everyone." Full review

With so many rooms, staffers are slow (if at all) to respond to special requests.
