2. For the hotel, I would stay at the main wing at the Okura. It's old, the location is slightly inconvenient for public transporation, and the rooms are small, but a) you can get a decent rate, b) it has an elegant, quiet and timeless lobby, and c) the service is the best in Tokyo....by far. For many years, it was ranked as the best hotel in the world.
