  • Rated 5 of 5 by a traveler from Travelocity.com
Finding two queen size bed rooms in Japan, for a family of four, is a nightmare. We found it here. This place is first class all the way and the cheapest on the Disney strip. The staff seemed to "adopt" us as thier family as we were the only Westerners I could see. The staff wrote the book on sevice and I couldn't have been happier with my stay. (although June's weather isn't the greatest) Food was pricey so we rode the monorail to the train station or mall for food =) STAY HERE!

Sheraton Grande Tokyo Bay

Sheraton Grande Tokyo Bay

The Sheraton Grande, located on the Tokyo Disney Resort property, is considered one of the nicer hotels in the area. Price-wise, expect to pay over $269 per night. However, if you are a member of the Starwood Preferred Guest program, you can redeem points for this Category 4 resort.

On one side of the hotel, each room features a sweeping view of Tokyo Bay. On the other side, guests are treated to a bird's eye view of the Tokyo Disney Resort parks: Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo Disney Sea. Fireworks shows are often a perk of a park-side room.

This resort features a spectacular pool area, complete with waterfalls and pool bar. Keep in mind, the pool's operation is seasonal and does not open until mid July.

One of the more unique features of the Sheraton Grande is a wedding chapel, accommodating both Shinto & Western ceremonies. The hotel's spectacular views are the perfect backdrop to a fairy tale wedding.

Another unique feature of the hotel is a traditional bath area. Housed in a separate building with a spa, the traditional bath features separate bathing areas for men and women. This area is also operated seasonally and was not open during our stay in late June/early July.

The rooms were very spacious and can easily hold 4 to 6 people. The hotel provided handy amenities including hairbands, compact hairbrushes, cotton swabs and cotton balls, all individually wrapped.

But the perks were the best. To get to the parks, one must purchase a pass to ride the Disney Resort Line Monorail, which is operated by the Japan Railways. However, the Sheraton gives guests free passes to the Resort Monorail, based on the number of nights booked. In addition, guests may take the busses to the monorail stations and also to the Maihama station, which takes you directly into Tokyo.

Note to Western travelers, if you take the busses for transportation, make sure you find the correct line to board the bus. Otherwise, a friendly hotel staff member will ask you to step in the back of the real line with all of the other Japanese guests giving you dirty looks. We found this out the hard way. No permanent damage done, however.

Decor is plain except there are some children's rooms which are whimsically decorated with large blocks and colorful props.

The hotel restaurants were pricey and did not tickle our fancies so we opted to find local eateries outside of the hotel. One thing I noticed was each evening, the restaurant on the lower level would fry up garlic. The smell would permeate the entire lower and upper lobbies. I love garlic but after a few days, the smell bothered me.

Overall, this is a clean & comfortable hotel which is convenient if your plans include scouring the Disney Resort. It is also conveniently located next to the Maihama station. I would stay at this hotel again and recommend it to friends.
