Frommer's Review

This hotel is one of my favorites in Tokyo, for its calm peacefulness as well as its small-luxury-hotel service. Because it's a bit off the beaten path, it has a quieter, more relaxed atmosphere than those found at more centrally located hotels, evident the moment you step into its lobby lounge with its gas-flame fireplace (winter only) on one end and the lush greenery of a garden on its other. Attracting mostly Japanese guests but sure to attract more international guests since becoming a Sheraton in 2007, it offers average-size rooms, with good bedside reading lamps and beds so comfortable you'd sneak them into your luggage if you could. The best rooms are on higher floors with huge floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the hotel's own lush garden, a famed garden next door, or Tokyo Tower. This is a fine choice of hotel, despite its out-of-the-way location (mitigated by frequent complimentary shuttle service to Meguro Station). It's also worth noting that some of the artwork gracing the walls is done by the hotel's own general manager, Mr. Banta.

Facilities: 3 restaurants; bar; lounge; health club w/25m indoor heated pool and sauna (fee: ¥735/$6.10/£3.10); spa; concierge; tour desk; free shuttle service to Meguro Station every 15 min. and Shinagawa Station (mornings only); shopping arcade; convenience store; salon; 24-hr. room service; in-room massage; same-day laundry/dry-cleaning service; nonsmoking rooms; dental/medical clinics.
