(this used to be the 4 seasons) The hotel has a very pretty garden which is actually a small Japan all in one place with pagoda, shrine, many sculptures, waterfall, and more. Many rooms have view on that garden, and it's fantastic. The staff spoke near perfect English and was very helpful. But look at it as a destination, some... More

Had a 5 night stay due to a conference located at the plaza next to the hotel. The rate paid was very reasonable due to conference group rate. Best feature of this hotel is its beautiful garden behind which is great for photo opportunities. With the garden and banquet rooms, the hotel does tons of weddings, with 20-35 weddings during...

A japanese relative booked a room for me at this hotel. I have stayed in Tokyo many times but had never visited Bunkyo. From the nearest tube station the directions to the hotel were a bit confusing, but as the locals are always very helpful we managed to find the hotel without any trouble. The hotel is very grand and... More

A perfectly lovely 5-night stay in an unexpectedly charming hotel where traditional values of great hospitality, excellent and very large rooms, and superb staff are clearly valued. Having visited Tokyo many dozens of times, I would not have stayed at the Chinzanso under its former guise as a Four Seasons, partly on grounds of price and partly because I assumed... More

It left the Four Seasons system this year. It seems to be striving to extend the traditional Japanese hospitality in dealing with its guests. I think that is for the better. It continues to be an excellent hotel. There are several excellent restaurants in the Chinzanso complex.(The hotel is next to facilities that cater to wedding and other functions.) Four... More

This is a wonderful hotel, with excellent accommodation in rooms that are spacious by any standards but especially for Tokyo, and fantastic service. The airline had lost my luggage somewhere between Dallas and Chicago, and I'd had to travel on without it: the concierge went to great lengths to assist in having it delivered to my room, making numerous phone...

We used a Travelzoo voucher for a 3 night stay here and it was an amazing end to our holiday. We got the room for a fraction of the full cost and in fact it was the cheapest place we stayed in our whole Japan trip. The hotel was immaculately clean and the staff were attentive and friendly. The best... More

My husband found this hotel, reading reviews on 5 star hotels in Tokyo. I, honesty, was not very happy that he changed our hotel reservations and booked 2 nights in this hotel. We were informed that the hotel was not close to an underground station, and the best thing was to take a taxi. Which we did. Check-in and luggage... More

After six visits to Japan over the last 15 years I was ready to try a five star hotel, and when the Travelzoo deal showed up in September of 2012 we jumped on the offer. Hotel Chinzanso Tokyo is set on a hillside that was called Camelia Hill until 1878 when prince Aritomo Yamagata purchased it and named it Chinzanso.... More
