Most hotel rooms in tokyo are usually small by international standards. This hotel, though located a bit further from the main road and Shinagawa station, has spacious rooms and quiet location. Staff are genuinely helpful and speaks excellent english, useful for non japanese speaking tourists/businessmen. Several restaurants with the steak house (opened since 1969) and located in a quaint buiilding... More

Situated in Shinagawa, a short train ride from Shibuya, Shinjuku and many other interesting places in Tokyo, we stayed here for three nights in May 2012. Ask for a room overlooking the gardens. The room was comfortable and clean although the bathroom is quite small. Breakfast at the Patio in the hotel was great, with a mix of western and... More

We stayed here in January 2012 for four nights.The rooms were very large, particularly for Japan and overlooked the beautiful Japanese gardens. This area of the complex is so quiet for a central Tokyo hotel, and yet the Shinagawa Station is only a five minute walk away.While the rooms were not luxurious, they were furnished quite stylishly.It was bonus having...

The Grand Prince Takanawa is part of a complex of Prince hotels near Shinagawa Station. This means that is is very convenient for taking bullet trains, subways, the the Japan Rail train that loops around Tokyo. There is a beautiful garden between the hotels. The rooms are large for a moderate-priced hotel and have every possible amenity. The staff is... More

We stayed twice, once at the start of our holiday and once at the end. After a very early arrival at Shinagawa station and not realising how close the hotel was we jumped into a taxi who took us to the wrong hotel. Soon sorted out, we dropped off our luggage and returned later to our garden view room. Plenty... More

This hotel shares its wonderful garden with its sister hotel the Hotel New Takanawa. The rooms are slightly larger than usual for Tokyo, but the bed is very hard by western standards, and the chairs are uncomfortable. Then rooms are clean and otherwise OK. Staff is friendly and helpful, and the hotel has better than average restaurants. The hotel also... More

Expedia photo is of a upgraded room but the lower cost booking is for a basic older room. At the hotel we upgraded to a more modern room. Cost of upgrade was moderate. Modern, spacious and comfortable on the 9th flr. with terrific views over Tokyo. Staff were very helpful (as they are in all Japanese hotels I've stayed in)... More

I moved from the East Tower of the Prince Hotel where I stayed for work to this hotel on Feb 9th and what a surprise! The first things I noticed was the sense of space and tranquility. The foyer is very large and spacious and there are staff everywhere to make sure that you are OK. Check-in is also friendly... More

Located on top of a hill with regular half hour shuttle service from Shinagawa station - check the schedules posted on the pillar next to the taxi stand. The Prince group of hotels are situated next to each other and share facilities including a swimming pool, a beautiful Japanese garden and the like. Service was very polite and the staff... More
