Rough Guide
"Its rooms are far from Tokyo's grandest, but there are Art Deco touches and a friendly welcome - and oxygen and supposedly refreshing negative ions are pumped around the premises."
Frommer's
"This is a delightfully old-fashioned, unpretentious (some might say dowdy) hotel with character."

Avoid the cheaper, more boring rooms in the 1954 annex.

"The Imperial prides itself on its high standard of service, and is responding to the influx of foreign chains with a complete overhaul that will be finished by 2008."
Fodor's
"Though not as fashionable or as spanking new as its neighbor, the Peninsula, the venerable Imperial can't be beat for traditional elegance."

Michelin Guide
"This hotel has been hosting overseas dignitaries since 1890 and its history reflects the ebb and flow of Japan’s modernisation."
DK Eyewitness
"With a history dating from the 1890s, the Imperial Hotel enjoys unimpeachable credentials."
Time Out
"This 1970 tower block-style building replaced the glorious 1923 Frank Lloyd Wright creation that famously survived the Great Kanto Earthquake on its opening day."
