Ritz Tokyo/stayed for 9 nights August 2024. Dishonesty from Spa/massage, never charge your guest without informing them of extra service. Beware! Very disrespectful. No formal apology. Bad service in club lounge breakfast & evening canapés, had to get the ladies & gentlemen to clear table. Club Breakfast restricted 1 & 1/2 hours & evening canapés restricted one 1 hour. Asked guests to leave after 1 hour. We found very offensive & disrespectful. Eat & run - no class & elegant specially at the the Ritz. No excuse that the club is busy (stayed for 9 nights not even busy) Food is average for the Ritz Carlton. Seafood is non existence. Mainly cater for Japanese guests Bistronomy Towers, service was excellent but food also average Cost cutting is on a high scale, not up to standard of Ritz Carton. Never return & never recommend Ritz Tokyo, Ritz Osaka to anyone 5/10. Ritz Singapore 10/10

We recently stayed at the Ritz Carlton Tokyo in the Millenia Suite, which was the perfect size for our family of three. The suite offered stunning views from both the bathroom and the living room, adding a touch of luxury to our stay. Our Club Lounge access was a highlight, with its breathtaking views and excellent food. The staff were incredibly welcoming, knowing our names and being attentive to our special needs, including food allergies. This personalized service made our experience even more special. Getting around Tokyo was made easy with the help of the hotel staff. They were always available to call taxis and communicate our destinations to the drivers in Japanese, ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience. Taxis were always readily available, which made exploring the city convenient. For those needing laundry services, there's a laundromat just a 5-minute walk from the hotel, adding to the convenience of our stay. We enjoyed several family activities during our trip, including visits to Teamlab, the Ninja Experience, and the Ninja Tokyo Restaurant. Each activity provided unique and memorable experiences that we thoroughly enjoyed. Overall, our stay at the Ritz Carlton Tokyo was exceptional. The combination of luxurious accommodations, outstanding service, and convenient amenities made it an unforgettable trip for our family. We highly recommend it to anyone visiting Tokyo.

The room is very big and comfortable. The staff went out of their way to help me with all my needs. The swimming pool and spa experience is heavenly. One of the best beds I’ve ever slept on. The view from the lobby and bar is breathtaking. This is an extraordinary hotel with amazing staff. I would like to especially thank Reika and a gentleman from Sri Lanka at the bar, who served us drinks and dinner. They are amazing people.
