I stayed here for one night this past January using a free night award. I had wanted to stay at the Courtyard nearest to Tokyo Station, but it had no availability for an award stay, so I booked the one in Ginza, which is not all that far away.

The hotel itself is pretty ordinary looking and the rooms are nondescript and not very large, but larger than the Courtyard near Tokyo Station. As a Platinum member, we were given a choice of two food items and two drinks from a small menu at check-in. We ordered the Club Sandwich and Cheese Plate with crackers and cold cuts as well as two small bottles of wine (the size that you get on an airline in economy). They were brought up to our room about 30 minutes after check-in. Overall, it was reasonably filling and who can argue with free.

The breakfast buffet was quite an incredible spread and its free for Platinums. There was an omelet station along with another station, which I don't remeber what it was serving. Quite an unexpected treat at this smallish business hotel.

The location is really good, in between Shimbashi and Ginza Crossing, and is only 35,000 points per night, not bad for Tokyo. The Courtyard Tokyo Station has since been elevated to a Category 6 hotel, so the Courtyard Ginza is still a bargain.

I did not notice a "Handy" smartphone in my room, so either it's no longer there or I missed it. How long ago did you see it there?
