APA Hotel & Resort Ryogoku Eki Tower
Rooms were air conditioned of course but outside the room (on all guest room floors, I suppose) was not air conditioned. I felt cold while waiting for an elevator. Everything else was very good.

Hotel Villa Fontaine Grand Tokyo-ariake
Japanese staff were helpful. Stayed there for three times. Not clean as before. Full of people. Self-serviced lockers were all used resulting in lots of luggages being put in the lobby. Very disappointed with the recent cancellation of free shuttle bus to/from Haneda Airport. Unlikely to stay there ...
