The hype
Travelers are blown away by the garden and the sheer scale of amenities, but often note the decor feels 'classic' (read: slightly old-fashioned) rather than modern chic.
Hotel New Otani Tokyo The Main
$200-350/ ночь
Смело бронируйте, если You want a massive, historic 'mini-city' resort experience with a stunning 400-year-old Japanese garden, and you don't mind being slightly removed from the neon chaos.
Почему людям нравится
- The 10-acre Japanese garden is a legitimate masterpiece, not just a hotel courtyard
- Shin-Edo rooms feature cypress bathtubs and complimentary sake
- Massive outdoor pool (Garden Pool) is a summer icon in Tokyo
Краткий обзор: It's a glitzy, sprawling 1964 Olympic-era beast that feels like a James Bond set—impressive and convenient, but expect some dated corners and a lot of walking.
Подтверждено @shelovswine: I stayed at the New Otani and was blown away by the 400-year-old garden right on the property. The Hinoki Suite smelled amazing, and having a private waterfall view in the middle of Tokyo felt surreal. It’s my favorite escape in the city.

FAQ и советы
Всё, что вы действительно хотели бы знать перед бронированием.
Is the pool free?
It's complicated. The outdoor 'Garden Pool' is often free for guests during summer (check your specific plan), but the indoor pool/spa complex charges ~¥5,000 per visit.
Which tower should I book?
Book 'The Main'. It's the flagship wing with better renovations. The 'Garden Tower' is a tier below in quality.
Is it close to the subway?
Yes, Akasaka-Mitsuke station is a 3-5 minute walk across the bridge. It's a major hub with Ginza and Marunouchi lines.
Can I see the garden without staying?
Yes, the garden is open to the public, but staying gives you the ability to stroll it in the quiet early morning.
Is breakfast included?
Usually not in the base rate. It's expensive (¥4,000+) but the SATSUKI buffet is legendary for its variety.
Are there convenience stores nearby?
Yes, there are FamilyMart and 7-Eleven locations within the complex and just across the bridge.

The 'SATSUKI' restaurant has 'Super Melon Shortcake' that costs over $15 a slice—it's famous and worth it.

5 вещей, которые нужно знать перед поездкой
💡The hotel has its own post office, dentist, and clinic—it really is a mini-city.
💡The 'revolving' restaurant (The Sky) no longer revolves, but the 360-degree views are still there.
💡You might see high-profile politicians or celebrities; it's a favorite for state dignitaries.
💡The walk from the subway involves a bridge and can be a bit confusing the first time.
💡The 'free' gym is a small room with basic machines; the 'real' gym is the paid one.
