Assuming you can find it, be sure to have a drink or meal at the 39th-floor Top of Shinagawa; its views of Tokyo Bay and the city are among the best in town.
Fodor's "Just a three-minute walk from JR Shinagawa Station, the Prince is a sprawling complex that's part hotel (with four towers) and part entertainment village." Full review
Star Service "Because of its proximity to Shinkansen and commuter lines, it's popular with midrange business travelers during the week. A wide range of entertainment diversions bring family vacationers on weekends." Full review
Lonely Planet "Set in a large entertainment complex in front of Shinagawa Station, the Prince has thousands of rooms housed in several towers, though singles are cramped." Full review
