Luxurious Hotel with Impeccable Service!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 2/10/09
I spent the past 6 months living and travelling in over ten cities, and the Westin Tokyo is, by far, the best hotel I've stayed in in terms of decor, service and quality of F&B outlets; I usually give hotel restaurants a miss as they are oftentimes overpriced, but the numerous outlets within the hotel are helmed by renowned chefs and are so stellar and quite reasonably priced (try the set menus) that they're a hit with the locals, which is always a good indication :)
The hotel is located in Ebisu and may not be as ideally located as the other hotels in its competitive set, but is a short walking distance from the train station, from which areas like Shibuya and Roppongi are only one or two stops away.
Overall, my stay was a great experience; with the advent of hip and trendy boutique hotels which oftentimes forsake service for style, it is always a relief to return to the grandeur and uncompromising service of more established hotels like The Westin.
