About the Hotel
The Strings by InterContinental Tokyo earns consistent accolades as Japan’s top hotel, and from a room on one of its top floors, it’s easy to survey the competition. Tokyo’s skyline envelops the hotel, adding a glamorous backdrop to interiors designed with simplicity and traditional Japanese aesthetics. Meals under the glass bridge in the atrium are an elegant affair, but The Strings’s central location means delectable local eats are close at hand. Try scouting a cozy izakaya near the Tsukiji Fish Market – it’s the largest seafood market in the world, and there are scores of ultra-fresh sushi joints nearby.

Reviews for The Strings by InterContinental Tokyo
Convenient Location, but Overpriced and Noisy
The hotel is located directly above Shinagawa Station, which is convenient—but if your room faces the tracks, expect significant train noise and vibrations. The fitness center is very small and poorly ventilated. The bar is decent, but the prices are high, as you might expect from a hotel bar. Overall, the experience felt overpriced for the comfort and amenities provided.

A calm oasis in a busy city
We had a two day stopover in Tokyo and decided to stay at the Strings mainly because it is super convenient to Shinagawa Station, connecting easily to both Narita and Haneda airports. It is a beautifully appointed hotel, and a calm oasis in a busy city. Our room was very quiet, the bed was very comfortable and the view pretty special too. The staff were delightful - friendly and helpful. It is a little expensive - but this is Tokyo! So if it fits into your budget - HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Excellent ambience and service, but the limited and repetitive breakfast selection fell short of expectations
In terms of its ambience, facilities, and quality of service, the InterContinental certainly lives up to its reputation. However, for a hotel of this caliber, I would have expected a wider selection and more variety at breakfast. My family and I stayed for five days, yet the breakfast offerings remained almost unchanged throughout our stay. By comparison, the breakfast selections we previously enjoyed at Prince Hotel and Hilton were far more varied and impressive.

I stay at Shinagawa Strings every time I visit Tokyo. In the two decades I have been traveling to Japan, this is my favorite hotel by far.
