“Very Nice”

Dai-Ichi Tokyo is a very nice hotel. I would say it deserves a 4 star rank. The area is fine--not far from the Ginza and close to Shinbashi Station. Not the Ritz or Four Seasons, but a fine place. No complaints, but not overwhelming, either

“Can't Wait to go back”

I simply don't have the words to describe how nice this hotel is. Staff was awesome, very friendly. Also they did speak english too. Location is great within walking distance of Ginza shopping district and if you wanted to go anywhere else the subway is about a 5 minute walk away. Whenever I come back to Tokyo I know where I will be staying.

“Great hotel experience”

All the plaudits above are right on. If you don't have loads of luggage (why should you), consider taking the JR Rapid Narita Airport from Narita Airport T2 straight to Shimbashi Station (1450 yen, 92 min, lots of local color). Exit 5 from JR to Ginza, go straight ahead across the street, walk past the Metro entrance on the other side of the street, take the next left under the tracks, and the Dai-Ichi is on the next corner to the right (tall tan tower with flower). Consider a one or two day Metro pass at the airport for central Tokyo. As an aside, just underwent one great earthquake for 3 minutes while writing this post.

Area recommendations
Ginza is great. Forget the Tsukiji market: they don't want you there.

“Truly "Number One"”

This was simply the best hotel we've ever stayed in - hands down. Every part of the experience was exceptional. The Hotel was GORGEOUS, our suite was exceptional with beautiful appointments, large beds huge bathroom with a two-person tub with a view (yes, a VIEW). In fact the bathroom was about the size of my daughter's apartment in kyoto. The (included) breakfast room was similarly appointed and stocked with a beautiful buffet.. Staff were great, and the hotel was accesible by tunnel to the local transit. I would definitely stay there again.

“Tokyo's Best hotel near Ginza.”

Whenever in Tokyo, Dai-Ichi is the place to stay. Very Convenient to all, shopping, dining, entertainment, business and train/subway stations. Will always go back.

Area recommendations
Visit Odaiba. Train is in Shimbashi station a short walk from the hotel.

“Great hotel and location!”

The Dai Ichi in Tokyo is more than convenient, friendly & helpful staff, especially the concierge desk manager. Nearby restaurants (several attached in the complex) are wonderful. Luxury near everything.

Area recommendations
Ginza area, without a doubt - excellent hotels, food, ambience - and close to lovely Hibiya Park and Imperial Palace.

Area:

Ginza, Tokyo, Japan: High on opulence and popularity, Ginza was one of the city's first districts to implement Western-style brick buildings and gas lamps. Set in the heart of the city, it is the place for those who don't mind crowds, and serious spenders. But it takes very little to see Asia's largest fish market, a traditional kabuki play, or the latest gadgets at the Sony building.
