That was my favourite out of the four sides for views.

I believe that Ambs and especially RAs are in the running for a minor upgrade as long as their stays don't coincide with the weekend (Fri & Sat in particular).

If your stay does clash with the weekend and you have a preference for a Tokyo Tower view (facing North West) it's worth requesting this in advance - the hotel gets rammed solid at the weekend (yet remains calm and serene) due to its popularity as a wedding venue.

If you prefer to see Tokyo Bay (or want somewhere quieter facing away from Shinagawa station) it can be seen from rooms facing South West - but only if you are on one of the very top floors. Not the most private of the hotel's sides, especially if you're on a lower floor.

If you fancy your chances of seeing Fuji (not visible once during the 2 weeks I was in Tokyo) then you can request to see it from the rooms facing South East which they call the Fuji view. Don't count on it though.

Rooms with a view of the Rainbow bridge are part of the Club side - it's unlikely you'll get one of these with this promotion.

Shareholder - did your fruit come in a cup or a vulva (IC logo) shaped platter? They seemed to switch to the platter whilst we were there - which yielded a couple more chunks of pineapple and blueberries.

The cups come with a couple of designs - even the Japanese themed one has a couple of bears snuck into the scene. Mine now has some washi paper in it and MrLapLap's has something I drew for him. We gave the third one to MrLapLap's father - those cups cost about 1,500yen each at Japanese Starbucks.

Budget dinner option:
Have you found the half price Bento boxes at Queens Isetan yet? (as you enter the station complex from the hotel you'll see an elevator on your right and Queens Isetan is on the second floor) By 9/9:15pm what's left is reduced by at least 50%. We got most of our dinners and our breakfasts there (The Queens Isetan at Shirokane Takanawa station had the same deal for those staying at the Sheraton Miyako).
