Hotel Arca Torre Roppongi

Description:

• This smart-looking, 10-story property looks expensive from the outside but is actually a business hotel. Opened in 2002, it has a great location on Roppongi Dori, between Roppongi Crossing and Roppongi Hills, making it popular with both business types and tourists on a budget. Its (mostly single) rooms are small but cheerful, with flat-panel TVs and complimentary bottled water in the otherwise empty fridge. Rooms facing the back are quiet but face another building. If you opt for a room facing the front, ask for a high floor above the freeway; otherwise, your view will be of cars and, at certain times of the day, traffic jams.
