Closing the loop on this post—We decided to stay at Hilton Tokyo in Shinjuku and we’re very happy with our choice. We had a room on the 32nd floor that was spacious enough to allow for good maneuverability without feeling cramped. The bathroom had a nice roll in shower with curtain and plenty of space, toilet was in the same room and did not get wet. There were plenty of grab bars in the shower and around the toilet as well. An added bonus was the heated toilet seat which was a surprise we found at multiple places in Tokyo—and I thought the best thing since sliced bread was heated seats and steering wheel in a car, boy was I wrong! The location was great and we were able to get around Shinjuku quite easily with great sidewalks with curb cuts. We also found that Japanese people seemed to pay much more attention and were much more aware of our wheelchair than we find happens in the United States and countries we’ve traveled to in Europe. The staff were excellent at the Hilton well. We did breakfasts there and that was a plus. We weren’t particularly impressed with the restaurants we tried in the hotel nor with the quality of food with room service but nothing that would keep us from returning. On the down side, it is pricey.
