The restaurant breakfast. is very good with a wide choice. It was the best hotel breakfast I had had until I stayed at the Shangri-La Tokyo which was a notch higher.

I had almost the same for an award stay in April. After the first loading, they had only premium awards available (but they had standard rooms for cash). Even an email couldn't help. Later they offered the standard award room. After a few weeks, that availabilty was gone again.
I'm afraid, you have to check often (somethng between daily and weekly) to avoid missing the availability of the city view roooms. But easy to do by app.
Of course you can ask, if they have an event there and that is why the standard rooms are not available.
And by the way: Conrad Tokyo is often a good place to burn points instead of cash.

I've had good luck with the third night free through Amex FHR, though I'd happily take a 95k room if I could snag one.

The spread at the Conrad Osaka was actually larger and had LOTS more Asian options and slightly fewer Western ones, but the execution of the Western options was better at the Conrad Tokyo in my opinion. Very close overall though.

for a Diet Coke (my morning caffeine of choice), I just had tea at Cerise then grabbed a soda from the lounge afterwards!

That being said, renting a pocket wifi is quite simple in Japan, and you can have your unit shipped to the Conrad for pickup.
