What guests think

Hotel New Otani Tokyo The Main is widely praised for warm, professional service, a serene 400‑year‑old Japanese garden, and a huge on‑site selection of restaurants and shops, though parts of this classic property feel dated and pricey.

Rooms are generally spacious and comfortable, with some modern Japanese options like cypress baths, but a few guests report firm beds, older décor, limited A/C control, or underwhelming Wi‑Fi. Location is quiet with a short walk to multiple subway lines, yet some find it less convenient for major sights and often use taxis. Dining offers extensive variety and views, while feedback on breakfast and prices is mixed, with occasional queues. Overall, expect a polished, full‑service stay anchored by standout hospitality and tranquil gardens.

Very large hotel, there was plenty of food and shopping options inside the building. Staff was super helpful, made checkin/checkout quick, were very professional, and helped us with our bags. The room itself was pretty good. Pretty spacious with a nice tv and good sized bathroom, and they left complimentary candies with a welcome note which was a nice touch. There's a small convenience store and coffee shop in the building as well which is helpful. Definitely a hotel on the fancier side if that's what you're looking for, but wasn't over the top

Ein wunderbarer Aufenthalt. Beim Frühstück muß Wartezeit einkalkuliert werden. Die Warteschlange ist mitunter lang - egal zu welcher Zeit. Das Haus hat einen wundervollen Garten. Der Poolbereich war jahreszeitlich geschlossen und kann daher nicht bewertet werden. Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber. Bitte darauf achten, daß es diverse Kategorien gibt. Das Personal ist freundlich. Die Infrastruktur des Hauses selbst und umliegend ist gut. Ich würde jeder Zeit wieder das Hotel wählen.

Great hotel. Does not feel aged. Plenty on property for convenience such as a coffee shop, convenience store and a pseudo grocery place. Close proximity to Subway lines but don’t trust google maps. Almost always chose the location as Akasaka-Mitsuke station rather than the hotel or else you’ll be hiking quite a bit to and from the hotel.

Can't fault this hotel. Very good in all respects. Very comfortable room with good views and space for the whole family. Superb bathroom with Japanese style washing area. Enjoyed the pool. Breakfast buffet very good in lovely room overlooking exquisite Japanese gardens. Service impeccable. Beautifully refurbished since our last stay while preserving most of its classic Japanese modernism. The area seems more vibrant too. Wish we'd booked another night.

Absolutely amazing experience. What a beautiful property! Very high class vibe with many shops and restaurants on site, some on the higher end of the pricing scale. The hotel garden is picturesque at all times of the day/night giving some lovely opportunities for photos. The sky bar gives amazing views of the surrounding area, particularly at night once the lights come on. The various restaurant options on site cater for many different cuisines. Staff all super friendly and happy to help. Surround location is good, with Asakusa-Mitsuke station within a 5mins walk. Our room was a great size, with a nice large bed and large bathroom, perfect for relaxing in the bath after a long day on your feet exploring the Tokyo metropolis.

Overall very good experience and staff always polite and helpful. The drawback is the lack of outdoor spaces useable in Summer. Even the swimming pool is only open for 3.5 hours. Spending the entire day inside is unpleasant every day and greater use of the pool area is really essential

Very well staffed and excellent service. Hotel is 5 stars but the room carpets have stains. In serious need of a refresh. The VIP benefit was a food credit that could be used for room service. However when I ordered room service they charged my card immediately instead of at the end of the stay and advised they could not honor the credit. So that was disappointing.

It smells a little bit weird inside the hotel and in the rooms (high humidity and smoke). In addition, the furniture and floor need to be replaced, especially for a hotel with 5 Stars. It isn‘t just looking old, at some furniture the doors didn‘t closed well or were damaged. I can‘t recommend the normal rooms, maybe the newer rooms with the special bath are better.

We enjoyed our stay at The Hotel New Otani - The Main in Tokyo. It's a beautiful, sprawling property. The garden is lovely to stroll through. The rooms are spacious, modern, and clean. We requested a baby cot and it was in good shape. I got a massage at the spa and it was excellent. The breakfast options were all wonderful, and the view from the 40th floor dining area was great. The bell desk helped us with luggage forwarding service. Every employee we interacted with spoke great English and was very helpful. The Akasaka area was well connected and quiet. Would definitely stay again.

Poor communication. When I want to pay at the reception before my guest check-in, the reception said they do not accept credit card, asked me to go to ATM machine to get the cash. When my guest check out, because my guest had the bar and restaurant services, so they said they don’t accept credit card, but my guest need to rush to the airport so the reception took his 2 credit cards number while I am on my way to settle, when I arrived the hotel and made the payment in cash, they gave me the receipt which is completely not in the same format. We will not use the hotel in the future.

Everything was great. If traveling in summer you can walk indoors inside the hotel and get within 400 yards of the subway entrance Akasaka-mitsuke or Nagatacho. Do not follow google maps walking directions to either of these entrances. Stay in the hotel all the way to the end. This hotel is very close to all the action via the subway or taxis. Concierge was helpful in advance of our arrival with diner reservations, baseball game, and more. The room I stayed in had the wood bath and king bed. It was very spacious for Japan. Wife and I did not fell cramped at all bathroom had two sinks. Very nice walk in closet. The hotel is slightly dated, but it didn't matter to me.

One of the worst customer service experiences I’ve had at a supposedly “luxury” hotel. We stayed here for over $600 a night and were shocked by the treatment we received after checkout. Our flight wasn’t until 6 PM, so we planned to spend a couple hours working quietly in one of the hotel’s many public lounges — something you’d expect to be acceptable at a hotel of this size and price point. After sitting in an entirely empty lounge for about 20 minutes, working on my laptop (plugged into an outlet), a hotel staff member approached me and, without a word, gestured “no” at the outlet. I was confused, especially since the nearby concierge lounge was full of guests doing the exact same thing. When I asked what the issue was, he pretended not to understand English and started speaking to me in Japanese. After several tries to get a clear answer, he finally said — in perfect English — that I could only use outlets in my room, implying I was loitering. This was incredibly insulting, considering we had just checked out and spent hundreds more at the hotel’s restaurants. He refused to explain further and ignored the fact that other guests were clearly allowed to do the same thing. It was bizarre, passive-aggressive, and left an extremely sour taste in our mouths. If you charge luxury rates, you need to offer luxury service — not make guests feel like they’re being kicked out the door. We won’t be returning.

I always stay at the New Otani when I'm in Tokyo. The subway station (Akasaka Mitsuke) is a few minutes walk from the hotel and it has both the Ginza and Marunouchi subway lines - making it easy to get to your desired location in the Tokyo Metro area. The 400-yr old garden is beautiful as well at the rose garden. Staff is exceptional, as you would expect in Japan. Don't miss the weekend buffet at Trader Vic's. Its a little pricey but the food is amazing and the sparkling wine is all you can drink. I stayed in a Shin-Edo room. Highly recommended. It was an awesome modern Japanese experience.

This is my second time staying because it is such a wonderful hotel. The garden alone is worth the extra cost. The rooms are very good size and the staff is well trained. It gives you a feel of good old-time charm plus model conveniences. It is not in the middle of "everything" but the train station is only 5 minute walk away, so it was not too bad at all. Ginza and Shibuya are only a few stations out, so you can get to everywhere just fine. Also, the airport bus from Narita (not Haneda) stops at the hotel, so that's super convenient. It's always on the top of my list every time I visit Tokyo.
