Capitol Hotel Tokyu, Tokyo
Expert reviews
“After a complete overhaul, the Capitol Hotel Tokyu reopened in 2010 in a 29-story, latticed-steel tower designed by the architect Kengo Kuma. The landmark property has three restaurants, a multilane lap pool and 251 rooms with rice-paper screens and views of the neighboring Imperial Palace or Akasaka skyline.”
Shortlisted in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Tokyo, Japan.
“The Capitol Hotel Tokyu is a magnificently modern Japanese design hotel that focuses on a high level of service. Throughout the hotel, art and design help evoke a sense of calm with wood and water features.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Tokyo.
“The historic 1960s Capitol Hotel was knocked down and rebuilt entirely before reopening in 2010 in a shiny new tower – its current incarnation elegantly mixes contemporary Japanese-inspired design with five star luxury in a serene green setting in Tokyo’s political district.”

Highly recommended
We stayed in this hotel for the first time in 2013. Then in 2014, 2015 and now again in 2024. Despite the fact that the rooms have some age to them, everything is completely immaculate. Beds are comfortable, shower is amazing and the view from the large windows is lovely. Staff are friendly and helpfull. Location is excellent due to direct access to four metro-lines. Not to mention the outstanding dinner at Japanese restaurant Suiren.

Amazing value for the quality at this property. I look forward to my next stay.
The room was exceptionally comfortable and clean, especially the bed and the bathroom. One of the most comfortable set-ups I've experienced in a long time. View was stunning. I'd come back just for the tub. The location above the subway station was perfect and taxis were always on deck. An extremely good value for the quality.
There was absent staff at the spa on two occasions, which made inquiring about services difficult.

Very good
Room is spacious and comfy with a nice view of the Tokyo cityscape. The location is superb as well, being connected to Tameike-sanno train station. There is also a convenience store just outside the hotel beside the train station. Amenities were all great and service staff were very hospitable as well.

This was a once in a lifetime experience - Excellency on every level - You expect something great for the standard, but it's beyond expectations of how good my stay there was - Extremely friendly staff, extra service, and everyone speaks english - This is a hotel you should have on your bucket list!

Exceptional
The bathrooms and shower were so nice!!! The staff were all very nice too. The French toast at breakfast was the best we ever had.
We booked for 6 people but they only had 4 beds in the rooms, so we had to ask for 2 extra beds.

Metro close by, comfortable rooms and great customer service.
I didnt love the location of the hotel but other than that it was amazing. Customer service was phenomenal and the room was comfortable. The metro was close. I just didn't realize how big and confusing the lobby and hotel were.

We will be returning guests at this hotel! Absolutely loved our stay here.
Modern, clean and luxurious property that is conveniently located in a quieter area (but still very convenient) which we really enjoyed. We also appreciated access to four subway lines as the subway station was right below the hotel. Breakfast at the hotel was delicious too- plenty of options and variety.
Everything was perfect!

A bit expensive but totally worth it

Excellent experience with the stay.
Everything was good. The hotel is centrally located and directly connected to a few subway lines. The commute to Ginza, Shibuya, Shinjuku is super convenient. And it's within walking distance to food street. Special mention to the concierge team who is superb to help us reserve a few restaurants, including Sukiyabashi Jiro. Their services are very professional and friendly.
Nothing much to say.

We enjoyed the hotel and the accessibility for public transport. The hotel is very clean and has beautiful facilities ho
It’s a beautiful hotel with beautiful views of Tokyo. It’s very clean and the staff were very friendly.
It’s not a choice I would make again for a family hotel. They do not allow people under the age of 20 in to the pool/ gym and casual bar area. We felt a little isolated in the room while at the hotel.

Fabulous
Quite location, yet accessible transportation to other areas. The subway station is in the basement of the hotel. There is a beautiful shrine located outside the front of the hotel. The hotel itself is beautiful with amazing views from the room. Short walk to fun resturants and bars.

comfortable
The hotel provided excellent service with excellent concierge assistance. The rooms are fairly large and comfortable with oversize bathrooms. Very good access to the Tokyo Metro.
The neighborhood although very central, was somewhat less engaging than I expected. We tended to head to other areas of Tokyo, which is one of the most interesting cities.

Everything one could ever want
It’s located slightly north of the crazy Shibuya district, which is great to visit but I’m not so sure about staying near. It’s next to the government building areas, so it’s ever so slightly quieter (at least as far as Tokyo goes). There’s a subway station in the basement, and if you’re brave enough, all of Tokyo basically lay at your feet. We arrived rather late at night and discovered to our amazement that it is adjacent to a beautiful shrine, which was empty and dark and positively magical - buzzing with cicadas and downright enchantment. The building itself it exquisite and beautiful, with views all around. Everything you could want in a pinch is a short walk away - from convenience stores (everywhere) to walk in, quality but not pretentious restaurants. Arriving about 9pm as we did, we were starving, and within minutes wandered into a ramen place that was busy but not haughty and we proceeded to devour a sumptuous dinner. The hotel also has a glorious indoor pool and spa on the 14th floor, which opens at 6:30 and which I visited every morning for some laps and relaxation. The staff were incredible. I traveled there with my daughter, who speaks Japanese, but when she wasn’t around, they were conversant in english. Also, check out the incredible whisky bar on the 4th floor. Room was absolutely silent and clean. Comfortable beds. Incredible views. When I return to Tokyo, I shall return to the Capitol Hotel.
Nothing.

feeling at home for my first visit to Tokyo
High profile hotel, quality of service, kind and qualified personnel, set-up and size of the room, central location, you can go everywhere by metro (4 lines are literally just at the foot of the hotel)
continental breakfast is a bit light
