What is your IHG status?
Platinum Royal Ambassador.

Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?
Yes.

Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Booked cheapest room for one night, got upgraded to a Premier King room.

How are the rooms?
Nice room but not as big as at Tokyo bay. Bathroom had l'occitane amenities.

How is the exec. lounge?
There is no.

What was your welcome gift?
Teddy bear.

Did you receive fruit in the room?
Yes, fruits and some Japanese sweets.

What was good and what was bad?
Good
  • Close to JR Yamanote and Shinkansen station.
  • A lot of diet coke in the minibar. (I have requested that when I have stayed there last time, two years ago)

Value for $ or Priority Club Points?
Paid 38,000 Yen which was 10,000 more than Tokyo Bay at the same night. While I get at Tokyo Bay more value, it's still fine to me.

Would you return?
If I need to catch an early Shinkansen, yes.
