We stayed a week at the Hilton Tokyo during our 10-day vacation in Japan and we really enjoyed being in the Shinjuku area, which is Tokyo's business, shopping and entertainment district.
The Hilton Tokyo Hotel is easily accessible by limousine bus from the Narita airport.
It takes about 2 hours for a trip from/to the hotel, 30 minutes being dropping or picking up passengers from other hotels in Shinjuku.

The hotel has different restaurants, a fitness room, an indoor swimming pool and very large and comfortable rooms.

The Hilton Tokyo, Japan!
We had a first stay at the Hilton Tokyo for four nights, and then we checked out to go to Disneyland. We then came back for the remaining of our vacation.
I have a lot of photos to show you and if you are ready, I will start now.
The entrance of the hotel.
The lobby.
Our Executive Room
Our first executive room was on the 25th floor. It was very spacious with everything you need, even pajamas and kimonos.
A nice office area and their WIFI was working great.
An extra bed for my daughter.
A flat TV that I haven't watched!
As an Accor member, this was our welcome gift.
The bathroom
The bathroom was not very big compared to what we usually have in Thailand, but it had a nice bath tub and shower, and a Japanese toilet, which I tried for the first time with delight.
The view
The view from the 25th floor was great.
Our second executive room
On our second stay, for the remaining of our vacation, we got a different executive room.
It was the same room size, but the office area was in a different area. Everything else was the same.
The view
We were on the 36th floor this time on the other side and a different view.
This was at night!
Breakfast at the Executive Lounge
We had all our breakfasts but two at the executive lounge because it was quieter, it had excellent food and a beautiful view.
We tried the main restaurant one morning and it was very crowded, so we continued to take advantage of the executive lounge.
One morning, we had a traditional Japanese breakfast that I described in this post: Japanese Breakfast at the Hilton Tokyo!
We enjoyed all the food they had for breakfast, a mix of international and Japanese food.
They had an excellent muesli that I enjoyed every day.
The first time that I see a machine like that. You put the oranges at the top and they get juiced.
Seeing the juice being made was as pleasant as drinking it.
Now, let's see some of the food we had for breakfast.
From the executive lounge you have the view on Mount Fuji, which we had only on our last day. Unfortunately, it was not visible the other days.
The Fitness Room
They have a nice fitness room, which I enjoyed only once on the first day. We had so many things to do and see during the day, walking kilometers, that I just gave up on my 40-minute daily exercise commitment.
They have a lot of equipment and my only critic is that they could have more different machines. They do not have a bike for example, which is great to start slowly.
Just behind the fitness room, you can see the indoor swimming pool, which we haven't used.
There is a separate room for weight lifting, and that's not me on the photo.
You climb a few stairs and they have two awesome tennis courts.
Tea time.
I am sorry to say that I spent more time in the executive lounge for tea than I spent in the fitness room.
Everything was excellent and we really enjoyed it.
Hopefully, after a week of this and the whole vacation, I have only gained one kilogram, which I will lose in the next three days.
I hope that you enjoyed reading this post and all the photos that go with it.
