I don't think that the RC Tokyo is traditional enough. It tries to be too new modernish for my tastes, whereas the RC Osaka is unabashedly and unapologetically traditional, which is more to my preference.
That said, while I still think that RC Tokyo is a better hotel than GH Tokyo, GHT is still excellent, and in a much better location, so it would also win my nod for a first time stay where location is important.
