Frommer's Review
One of several deluxe hotels to debut in 2003, the Strings has many things working in its favor, including its affiliation with ANA (All Nippon Airways) and its location just a short walk from Shinagawa Station surrounded by a sea of office buildings. Guests -- corporate CEOs during the week and well-heeled tourists on weekends -- are beamed up via express elevators to the 26th floor of an office high-rise, where the lobby soars seven stories in a light-filled atrium featuring slatted wood and a reflecting pond. In fact, natural sunlight, stone, wood, and water are dominant themes throughout public areas, in almost defiant rejection of the marble so favored by hotels in the past. Brown is the color of choice for contemporary, high-ceilinged rooms occupying the top six floors, with sofas and walnut furnishings that are low-slung so as not to obstruct city views; but the beds are higher than normal, so that guests can see outside while resting. Rooms have everything you'd expect, including free high-speed Internet access, LCD flatscreen TVs, and roomy bathrooms with separate tub and shower areas.
Facilities: 2 restaurants; bar; lounge; 24-hr. gym w/steam room; concierge; small 24-hr. business center (free for hotel guests); 24-hr. room service; in-room massage; babysitting; same-day laundry/dry-cleaning service; nonsmoking rooms; executive-level rooms; complimentary shoeshine.
