Rough Guide "Its rooms are far from Tokyo's grandest, but there are Art Deco touches and a friendly welcome - and oxygen and supposedly refreshing negative ions are pumped around the premises."
Frommer's "This is a delightfully old-fashioned, unpretentious (some might say dowdy) hotel with character." Full review

Avoid the cheaper, more boring rooms in the 1954 annex.

Rough Guide "Mammoth hotel which is a tourist attraction in its own right for its traditional gardens."
Frommer's "The hotel's most splendid feature is its garden, the best of any Tokyo hotel." Full review

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

"There are a whopping 1,479 spacious rooms in the tower, with varying styles of decor along with minibars and flat-screen TVs." 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.
