The Prince Park Tower Tokyo ReviewRising high above the pastoral surroundings of a parkland and Zozoji Temple, this 33-story monolith is the Prince chain's most luxurious Tokyo property. After a sit-down check-in, you'll cross a bridge over water and through the triangular-shaped building's hollow core before reaching the elevators. Designed by Tange Associates (the firm created by architect Kenzo Tange), the hotel certainly gets your attention. Rooms, from the 3rd to 31st floors, are what you'd expect from a hotel of this caliber (including whirlpool tubs and separate showers), so it's the views that stand out, with about half the rooms possessing balconies. You'll pay more for higher floors (from the 19th floor and higher), accessed only by special key and including a floor just for ladies (with humidifiers and air purifiers, scales, massage chairs, and curling irons). The hotel is within spitting distance of Tokyo Tower and a sobering walk from Roppongi's nightlife district. Facilities: 8 restaurants; lounge; concierge; executive-level rooms; health club w/25m indoor pool, fitness room, and hot-spring bath (fee: ¥4,200; available for guests older than 24); room service; free shuttle service to Hamamatsucho Station 30 min; bowling alley w/darts and billiards.

Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
