This hotel is in a great location. It opens onto Takeshiba station which will get you over Rainbow Bridge to Odaiba, and can connect you to the metro. Just as easy is to walk 10mins to Hamamatsucho, which is on the Yamanote line but also connects to Daimon station, which s on the Oedo line. This corner of Tokyo is pleasantly quiet but still has great access. The views are stunning - pay a little extra to get an even better view and you won't regret it.

The decor in the rooms is maybe a little dated but rooms are large and well equipped, as you would expect from an Intercontinental.

Hotel is located in a quite corner of Tokyo next to the Takeshiba Pier right at the edge of Tokyo Bay. Some rooms have direct views of the Rainbow Bridge.
15 minutes walk to the Hamatsucho Station which connects to the JR Yamanote Line and Monorail to Haneda Airport.
One of the older InterCons but nevertheless, public areas and rooms are well maintained. Breakfast spread is good and perfectly adequate.
Will stay again.

First the basics... my ratings are based on comparing this hotel to others in the same high caliber. This is a typical high quality Intercontinental Hotel. The staff is super professional and polite, the rooms are impeccable.

What makes this hotel strategic AND fun is its location in Tokyo. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION is a critical decision when traveling to Tokyo.

This hotel is right on the water and out of the way of the hustle and bustle of the city. It is also a great location if you have business both in Tokyo and Yokohama. When I travel to Tokyo I plan my hotel stays based on where I have to go. You can waste a LOT of time in Tokyo-Yokohama just traveling on the subways and trains. Make this a critical selection factor when deciding where to stay in Tokyo.
It´s a ten minute walk from the Hamamatsucho Japan Rail station. If you have to go to the Ginza area, just take the Yurikamome elevated train from Takeshiba station which you can reach without even going down to the street level. There's a path straight from the hotel to the station. SUPER convenient!
Another important factor... you can take the monorail to/from Hamamatsucho from/to Haneda. From now on, I will try my best to take trans-Pacific flights into Haneda. It is SO much more convenient than traveling via Narita.
However, if you have to travel via Narita, then take the train from Narita to Shimbashi station and then the Yurikamome to the hotel (Takeshiba station). You can also take the Orange Limousine buses to the hotel, however, here´s the catch... this is the last hotel on the bus route from Narita, and the first on the way to Narita, therefore you´ll have a long ride within the city before you get to the hotel.
I will return to this hotel and would recommend to a friend if it makes sense from a location perspective.

We checked in at the Intercontinental Hotel Tokyo Bay, right from check in, it was a wonderful
experience, the staff were very polite, always willing to help, they had transport available from
early morning until late at night, to and from the subway station,but the only major problem
was the internet,thier charges were exceptionally high,whereas the Ana crowne plaza in Osaka had free wifi, really super fast. We did not eat in any of the restaurants,as we use to leave early,and come back late on the last Bus, they did have free internet access at the
business centre, they had two desktops there which were really outdated and one of the two was out of service.All in all it was a good stay, and we took the bus service forr 3000 yen straight to the airport.
