I chose “Shinagawa Prince Hotel,” because it was just renovated in April of 2019, and the rooms were interesting in the fact that they were targeting the “millennials” on the upper floors. The name of the room is called “Millenial Room,” with the wallpaper design being unique, and more than 30 floors are all non-smoking, which was comfortable. One main reason for choosing this room was because the view seen from the room at night is nice.
What is the appearance of the hotel? Check the entrance and reception
The Prince hotel is across from Shinagawa Station Takanawa Exit.
The Shinagawa Prince Hotel has four buildings; the “East Tower,” “Main Tower,” “Annex Tower” and the “N Tower,” and this time I stayed at the 32-story Annex Tower.
Annex Tower is right next to the main tower and is an entertainment building with an aquarium, movie theater, bowling alley, game center and many other shops.
There are many entrances to the hotel. This is the 1st floor entrance.

What is the Annex Tower MIllenial King Room like?
Guest room door.
There was a full length mirror by the entrance.
Next to the full length mirror was a closet and a hook to hang clothes. Next to the closet was the bathroom.
The window was covered with white blinds.
The bed was a king size bed, so I was able to role around on the big bed. The bed was very comfortable. I could see the nice view from all angles.
There was a bedside table with a phone, memo set, flash light and a phone charger.
A phone charger.
There was a tissue box on the other side. There was also a plug-in outlet by the bed which was convenient.
A night lamp on the head board.
The lamp by the bed was an interesting design.
There was plant hanging by the bed on the other side.
There was a TV next to the bed, and a sofa and table on the other side. The wallpaper behind the sofa was stylish and unique by an illustrator calledHisashi Okawa who is active in a wide range of fields.
There was a plug-in outlet by the TV.
Sofa and TV.
I was staying in the corner room, so there were two windows facing different directions.
Two windows.
I was able to see an 180 degree view from the windows.
I was able to crack the window just enough to let in fresh air.
The window had white blinds that blocked out sunlight, so I was able to sleep well in the morning.
I could see the Tokyo Tower and Shinagawa Station tracks. I could also see the Takanawa gateway under construction, so I think it would be a better view when it is completed. I could even see the Rainbow Bridge, Roppongi Hills and the clock tower of the Docomo Tower in Shinjuku. The view of Mt. Fuji was splendid when the weather was nice.
I was able to enjoy the view all day.
The city lights were beautiful.

Restaurants and shops in the hotel
There were many restaurants in the hotel, and I will introduce a couple.
On the first floor of the Annex Tower was a Japanese bistro called “Ichozaka.”
The restaurant consists of three areas: a main dining restaurant, a lively counter grill, and a bar for drinking.
During dinner time, classy music was playing.
You can choose between a course meal and an a la carte.
They had happy hour serving drinks and appetizers.
The food they serve here is more reasonable compared to other restaurants in this hotel.
Caesar salad.
It was a fancy restaurant.
Breakfast was served at the “Cafe Restaurant 24” on the 1st floor of East Tower.
The restaurant had a calm atmosphere.
It is open 24 hours and is a very causal space.
I ordered a morning set with Baked bread, two types of bacon, a special egg omelet, and fresh fruit.
This is the Huxuna Luxe Dining on the 1st floor of the main tower. Japan’s largest buffet restaurant, with a ceiling height of 9m and a total seating capacity of 403 seats. You can enjoy the feeling of being in a resort area with sound, light, and visual effects.
On the second floor of the Annex Tower was a food court called“Shinagawa Kitchen.” There are a lot of shops where you can get in line, and there seems to be a limited menu only sold at the “Shinagawa Kitchen.”
There was a convenience store on the 2nd floor of the annex tower by the entrance.
There were shops where you can buy souvenirs, cosmetics, clothes, shoes, bags, accessories, etc.

Facilities in the hotel
There was an indoor pool on the 3rd floor of the main tower (although there is an outdoor pool, it is only open during certain periods in the summer). The pool is charged even for hotel guests, but the price is much cheaper than the regular price. The 20m pool was short on 3 courses, but the depth was 1.4m, so I could swim well. There was also a children’s pool in the back.
There was also a jacuzzi. There is also a warming room. From the large window, you can see the neon lights of the Prince Hotel, and it is quite a spectacular view.
The locker room was convenient.
There were also “Takanawa Tennis Center” and “Takanawa Golf Center” on the hotel site.
There was a movie theater called “T. Joy PRINCE Shinagawa” on the 3rd floor.

A banquet hall on the 5th and 6th floors of the Annex Tower.
There was a currency exchange machine on the 7th floor.

Staff and guests
The hotel staff was helpful and polite. The staff at the restaurant and the pool were very friendly as well. In most cases, when the business hours are approaching, cleaning up starts and the attitude of the staff tends to be awkward, but that was not the case at the Shinagawa Prince Hotel pool. I swam until the last minute of business hours and used the shower slowly without panicking. Service was wonderful.
There were guests staying from all over the world at the Annex Tower. Although there may be because of the Rugby World Cup, I saw many Westerners. I also saw businessmen staying.

Summary
I had a nice stay at this hotel! The view from the room was better than I expected. I was very impressed with the clean and new corner room on the top floor. Furthermore, the interior of the room was novel and enjoyable with playfulness. The red color of the bathroom was amazing. The wallpaper in the room was also quite unique. There were many surprises and excitements prepared in the room. The food was delicious and I was able to relax in the pool as well. You can play golf, watch movies, go to the aquarium, do bowling, play tennis and so on. This is a huge and wonderful hotel with a lot entertainment. I was reminded of how great this hotel is by seeing the view from the top floor. This is an amazing hotel in a really good location.
