Phenomenal hard product, but didn't come away feeling that the service was particularly noteworthy. I would still happily go again.

But they can also be very accommodating.
On the other hand, service can also be spotty at PHs. Incredibly bad service at Twilight Time last stay at PH Tokyo.

I had a somewhat bad experience with asking the "concierge" to arrange for my next hotel's car service (in Asia) to pick me up at the airport. The "concierge" said that she didn't know how to do this, even though I supplied contact details for the hotel as well as my flight information etc. It seemed shocking for a top hotel in Asia.

So I stayed in PHT two years back of four nights and had an awesome stay. The staff were excellent, especially the funny sarcastic british/australian guy. Hope he's still there.
The rooms were huge, think we were in a Deluxe room. But they felt 90ish. Overall happy. Nice and big breakfast and the bar was awesome.
Now in 2018 I'm turning 30 and want to celebrate it with my partner in an luxurious/expensive hotel. So Andaz might be a good choice in Tokyo? What i've read it feels fresh and modern. That kind of hotel I'm looking for.
Status only as a Member so no upgrades for me but I still like the brand.

The building I referred to there (i.e. slated to be the tallest from 2023) is one in the Toranomon-Azabudai area. Toranomon Hills is in Toranomon. 
The building, actually buildings, going up on either side of Toranomon Hills Mori Tower (where the Andaz is) will form further parts of Toranomon Hills as a whole. Neither will be taller than Mori Tower though.

Hey guys, arriving late at Narita (11pm ish), what's the best option to get to the hotel. I understand that neither NEX nor limousine bus don't operate at that time? Is taxi the only option? Any advice would be much appreciated.

There's an Express Bus that leaves from Terminal 1 at 11:25pm. That arrives at Tokyo Station around 12:40pm, from which you can still take a short train ride to Shinbashi, from which you have about a 15 minute walk to the hotel. Of course, you could also catch a taxi at either Tokyo or Shinbashi.

One tip for the Narita to Tokyo Station route is to get on the Keisei Expressway Bus (turquoise colored) instead of the Friendly Limousine Bus (orange). The Keisei Bus will only cost 1000 yen (or 900 with advanced reservation) whereas the Friendly Limousine is 3100 yen.
