Frommer's Very Highly Recommended

Located on Shinjuku's west side next to the Hyatt Regency, the 38-story Hilton Tokyo with its sensually curving facade opened in 1984 as the largest Hilton in the Asia/Pacific area. Today it keeps a lower profile than most of the other Shinjuku hotels, with a quiet, subdued lobby, and it remains popular with business and leisure travelers alike. Rooms are up-to-date and adequate in size. As with all Hiltons, the room decor reflects traditional native style, with shoji screens instead of curtains and simple yet elegant furnishings that include queen-size beds or larger in all rooms. Rates below are approximations only, as Hilton maintains "floating" rates that ebb with the law of demand. Tip: Join Hilton HHonors for free, and you also gain free entrance to the health club. Facilities: 5 restaurants; bar; lounge; 2 outdoor lighted tennis courts; health club w/indoor pool (fee: ¥3,000/$25/£13); concierge; tour desk; free shuttle service to Shinjuku Station; shopping arcade; salon; 24-hr. room service; in-room massage; same-day laundry/dry-cleaning service; nonsmoking rooms; executive-level rooms; Kinko's (open 24 hr.)
