The Ritz-Carlton Tokyo

The Ritz Carlton Tokyo Rooms are big for Japan standards, nice view overlooking Tokyo Tower, and apparently they also have rooms that have views of Mt Fuji or the Imperial Palace.  Honestly I don’t remember much about the Ritz Carlton Tokyo which is probably not a great sign, I remember more about the area, which whilst good, isn’t my favourite area of Tokyo, but something a bit different than Ginza or Shinjuku.

Room amenities are all 5 star as you’d expect from a Ritz Carlton. Location is a 5-10 minute walk from Roppongi and situated in Midtown, a bit of a trendy, artsy location in Tokyo. the Ritz Carlton Tokyo is also Service was good without being outstanding, breakfast was limited if you’re a Westerner used to a big bacon n eggs type breakfast. The wait was a bit long for the eggs, but the French Toast was definitely up there with the best. Plenty of other dining options near the hotel and a nice little park next door is good for a morning stroll with kids.

The Park is not that great compared to some other parks in Tokyo, but it’s got some nice areas and better than nothing.  It’s connected to Roppongi Station, so somewhat easy access to Shinjuku.

At around HKD$6000-$8,000 per night, it’s a bit steep. And no, we didn’t pay that rate. There’s a michelin star French restaurant in the Ritz Carlton Tokyo and apparently 6 restaurants in total but we didn’t eat at any of them, expect them to be like every other restaurant in any Ritz-Carlton around the world, rather good but costly.

If you’ve booked a room at the Ritz Carlton Tokyo and paid anywhere near full price, why not just go for broke and get the hotel limousine from and to the airport, it’s a Rolls Royce Phantom so you can imagine what that’s cost.

If we ever want to stay in Midtown again, wouldn’t hesitate to come back here and you won’t be disappointed if you decide to stay here.
