Niharika H Gill Review of The Westin Hotel Tokyo

Rooms are big which is awesome! But they look like something Versace might ve dreamt up in the late 80s or early 90s which didn t quite suit my taste. Food here is pretty expensive and not amazing, but pretty good. Service was fabulous and lots of fun little amenities like bath salts, tub pillow, great products, even a plush yoga mat, and to top it off, a lovely cotton kimono to keep you comfortable and relaxed. The hotel is roughly between Meguro and Ebisu stations which are pretty decently central (but not as well connected as Shibuya or even Roppongi). There s a skywalk that you can take to get to the Ebisu station pretty quickly (a series of enclosed moving walkways like at an airport), or you can meander down and walk there via street pathways if you prefer.
If leaving the country via Narita (which is not recommended - go via Haneda!! It s much closer) I do NOT recommend taking the airport limousine bus when leaving because it s the first stop and you ll spend literally an extra 60 mins just visiting the other hotels picking up more riders before even getting on your way to the airport!!! Super annoying.
It s way faster to take Narita Express train. I took the train on the way in and was very comfortable in a plush seat and was entertained with free WiFi. Get our own booked seat, lock your luggage in to place near the doorways. I came in via Meguro station which was only a 12 min walk (not recommended unless you ve packed light) or a few mins in a taxi from there to the hotel.
Enjoy your stay in Tokyo!
