Central Tokyo Cheap Holidays

Great location and facilities

The Hotel New Otani is beautiful and upscale. The gardens are amazing! Be sure to set aside an hour to enjoy the plants and tranquil water. The staff provide the highest level of service. Most speak English. It’s not near the tourist sites, but there’s a metro station nearby and taxis. We stayed at a downtown hotel on our way out of Japan, and I didn’t prefer one location over the other. The beds are VERY hard. Very. It’s normal for Japan, but if you want “American soft” beds, choose a Western brand. The rooms are spacious with nice bathroom facilities. They are generous with toiletries, and the soaps smell great. Try the face cream and lotion. There are many options for food on the lower levels. We liked Tully’s Coffee for breakfast. The main restaurant offers breakfast as well. I really enjoyed the pizza restaurant, which is tucked around a corner. They have pizza, noodle bowls, and gorgeous desserts. It’s their best kept secret! The Currency Exchange is located in the post office. It’s only open until 5:00 pm. There are exchange machines all over Tokyo—we didn’t have any trouble finding one. We felt safe getting money and carrying cash.

This property is in a perfect location! We loved it and will be going back in the near future 💕

Incredible view of the gardens. The hotel ouzes old world charm and grandeur. Free shuttle service for easy access to Shinjuku and Shibuya. Definitely highly recommend.

The service here is top notch, was surprised that the cleaning staff came by to the room in the evening to do a quick round of a cleanup

The shopping arcade on B1 was not what it used to be 10, 15, 20 years ago. The quality of the merchandise sold in the stores were a bit “cheap” in quality and prices.
