Just walked by the hotel. There is a sign that says the hotel is closed from April 1st to May 31st.
It says that all operations are transferred to the next door Grand Prince New Takanawa. No idea what happens with existing reservations, or whether Marriott benefits will be honored at the other hotel.

I would say they are pretty good. I utilize a different loyalty program for this hotel (SEIBU PRINCE CLUB Platinum member), and I have never not gotten an upgrade to a Junior Suite when I asked for it.

They are going to begin opening, just not for Americans, and at the current rate of infection spreading, it's likely Canadians and Europeans will not be part of that initial group. The citizens you can expect to receive approval for April visits will most likely be from Taiwan, Australia, and New Zealand. I would say travel from much of the world to Japan is a non-starter until virus spread is stopped, and the case growth is stable/declining.

I have a stay planned in September and I'm thinking of booking this hotel. I've searched but cannot find the answer to one question. Is free breakfast provided to platinum members?

That said, I am not optomistic that full-blown tourism will resume by September.

Seems like they are currently offering breakfast at CILIEGIO Ristorante Caffè. If you are a Platinum, Titanium or Ambassador member staying at Price Sakura, you can go to Lounge Momiji at Grand Prince Hotel Shin Takanawa for tea time and cocktail time.
