What's the long hallway with all the wood?
Tokyo Tower looks much farther away than from the Andaz. In their tower view rooms, the tower seems to take up the entire view from the window and is especially dramatic when the lights are on at night.

Tokyo Tower is closer to Edition than it is to the Andaz, these pictures are taken either from the open air space of the yet to open restaurant, or from the bar windows. It is probably more a matter of framing of the picture.

Excellent photos, thanks for sharing! The hotel has a nice understated elegance that comes across. I love the outdoor terrace restaurant with views of Tokyo Bay and Tower, and your room balcony is awesome. Definitely not a fan of the green upholstery, which makes me feel queasy. It looks worth a stay, but probably on points for me.

I have stayed here another 3 times since the first stay. The hotel is quite busy on weekends, Tokyo people on staycation, and also seems to have built quite a business on the afternoon tea.
I have tried 3 different suite types by now, and all were great. I have yet to see a standard room, which was poked for stays 2 to 4. The one thing that is a miss in the layout of the hotel, is that the pool area is too small, creating a waiting time for access on weekends.
Initially they only used the Blue Room for breakfast, though on the last stay they used both lobby level restaurants to have more space. Sadly not the outdoor seating, for lunch and dinner only the Blue Room and the lobby bar is operating.

I would say it can be read both ways, 100 USD total credit, but also a sum of 2 times 100 USD.

I booked the terrace studio but will see about the premier suite with terrace also.
I do wish all hotels would standardize posting room floor plans like FS and MO do.

Prince Gallery has one for $150 on 2nts, and the text has the language for both the standard $100 credit and the $150 bonus. It also says in addition so yes it should be $200. It wouldn't make sense for it to be listed on the promotions page otherwise.

The terrace studio is very nice, they are not all equal in size, unless they since opening have broken it down in to more categories. I have followed the rooms that carefully.
