jakob,
I would recommend www.asiahotels.com (http://www.asiahotels.com)
Many FTer's have used them & their rates seem to slightly beat the rest.

thanks for the site ! but the selection of tokyo hotels seem to be quite limited.

is staying in shinjuku better or in shinagawa ?

I have used www.asiahotels.com (http://www.asiahotels.com) several times and never had a problem. They usually have fairly competitive rates.

I will third the vote for asiahotels.com. I can't really comment on Japan since I don't go there very often, but I would suggest that you stay at a few Hyatts between now and your trip and take advantage of faster free nights; for every two stays, you get one night at the Hyatt of your choice. Even Priceline stays count (on a case by case basis).

jakob, try www.jnto.go.jp/eng/ (http://www.jnto.go.jp/eng/) click on places to stay then links hopefully this will help you find reasonable accommodations.
