Stayed with partner

Although we loved many aspects of this hotel, we were disappointed in the bedroom itself, which we found to be inadequate for two people. Firstly, the clothing storage space was grossly inadequate for two guests (largely because the coffee-maker / mini-bar occupied a disproportionate amount of space); secondly, we found that the bathroom affords an unusually scant degree of privacy. Furthermore, the only two English-language TV stations (CNN and BBC) kept switching to being dubbed in Japanese, and the front desk was not entirely helpful in resolving the situation.

Excellent superb service by every single member of the staff . This particular ritz Carlton should be recategorized as a 7 star hotel (if there is not such a rating , one should be started) instead of 5 star. This property deserves all the praise and then some - especially their staff and service.
