This is NOT a promotional video. I pay for all of my flights and hotels (and I always tell you how much!) so I can be as honest and impartial as possible. I do not receive any special treatment that wouldn’t otherwise be publicly accessible, in fact, the hotels and airlines have no idea about my visit and that’s the way I like it!

i always enjoy your honest review, btw have you tried blossom hotel at hibiya? 2 months ago i stayed there for 2 weeks and very super happy. We stayed on 27th floor and has a nice view room. Its very clean, quiet and pretty close with train stations
Nice video mate. Yeah this Hyatt Centric looked almost like a W and more high end than usual .. re the intro I will miss the intro music as it was unique to your channel and fun, but I understand wanting to make the channel evolve too.
Keep this great channel going 🎉
What does ' Video N° 198 Hotel N° 126' mean in the beginning of the video?
Glad ur enjoying japan! Stationed in Okinawa and this whole country is beautiful
Lots of nice Hyatt Centrics out there: the South Beach, Fort Lauderdale, Key West and Kanazawa ones come to mind that I’ve stayed at post covid. The Kanazawa Centric regularly goes for 100USD a night.
The New York ones are awful though!
That being said, this Centric’s rates feel pretty exorbitant compared to the AC nearby, or the similarly priced GH Tokyo.
I’ll be staying 4 nights in August. Thanks for sharing this review!
One thing I’d be curious about is how why you chose to stay at this hotel specifically, instead of all the other options in Tokyo.
I dig your new intro; it resonates with me from the get go <3 Btw, for some reason I cannot put my finger to, this hotel reminds me of the Clarion Hotel Sign in Stockholm.
The new music and opening sequence is very nice, change is always good, except when it’s not 😅
Japan is very high on my bucket list, but for some reason it kinda intimidates me.
Номер яркое представление как организовать мебель в маленьком пространстве. Тумба раковина шикарное исполнение. Но надо следить попадание воды на панели. Иначе все это прослужит не долго. А так конечно выглядит как арт -объект. Да вам огромное спасибо. Как вы из такого маленького отеля сделали стольпрекрасный обзор
I think the new intro is very smooth and to the point. It didn’t urge me to skip it like the previous ones (sorry). Review was on point as is often the case with your videos.
Welcome to Tokyo 🎉
I really like your channel and glad to here that you are visiting Japan 🇯🇵
I always refer to✨More power to you
Thanks for reviewing! We always stay at the Andaz Tokyo so I will have to check it out.
Ha! I liked the previous intro but still love all the content! Great work, Kevin😀
Oooh..thank you! One of their suites is pink-color themed. Sooooo happy that you reviewed this property and sooooo happy you liked it🎉
🙂 nice , i have been watching almost all your hotel reviews, really enjoy it? do you plan on going to dubai any time soon? last time we stayed in crowne plaza dubai marina and we enjoyed it very much i think you will apprieciate it too! 🙂 best regards from slovakia
6:46 That chair and table legs are positioned following the carpet pattern
Thank You ✈️
May I know. How is the air conditioning system. Cold enough?
Nice review. The Hyatt centric, is twice the price the okura. Which one du you prefer? (I booked the high floor corner room in the okura for cheap)
Does the Hyatt worth the price/upgrade?
amazing intro, Kevin!
I love hotel design and your video certainly brought out the stunning concept and colors of this property. Now I'm going to start researching Yohei Akao and Super Potato, two names I wouldn't have know until l listened to your narrative.
Kevin-san, great job! I loved this video starting from the new melody, which flows naturally to gain momentum in the intro. I love the decor and the ambience since I've been a fan of Super Potato for years. The bathroom arrangement is kind of funky, but nothing that would make me have second thoughts about staying there. The price is on the steep side, but the location is superb.
I know you only stayed at 2 properties this time. If you go back to Japan in the future, please consider properties up North in Niseko — Park Hyatt and Ritz-Carlton — as well as the Ritz-Carlton in Nikko.
As for the puzzle, here's my wild guess with just one letter: The Albert in Sydney.
Ganbatte kudasai!
I had to go back to some older videos to compare the intros, and tbh, I like both (minus the name sticker lol). But this new one is def smoother and sleeker. However, I did like the flip board letters of the old one. As for the content, great video as always. Looking forward to the Okura since I considered that. We ended up booking the Andaz – hope you get to review that in the future!
Thanks for the review Kevin! As a Hyatt loyalist I've been loving your recent content on Hyatt brands. Probably the best unbiased reviews out there for properties I'll actually stay at. Looking forward to our stay at this Centric even more thanks to you!
Gotta love the toilet!
Nice vid!
Finally Japan videos! 🥳
Going to Japan again in October for the first time since the pandemic and the hotel prices are crazy compared to what I'm used to. This property looks solid but the cash rates are hard to swallow.
I have the Andaz Tokyo booked for next January with Hyatt points. If I hadn't already booked or I was paying cash I would definitely consider this hotel.
Love the new intro 👍🏾
Very interesting, thorough review.
The room looked nice but I think I would kill myself going to the bathroom at night – especially on the glass table and the strange lay-out 😄 Thank you for your reviews – love them!!!
That sink, island situation would be a deal breaker for us. That and the cost. On points, it isn't bad, usually 21K per night. But over $600 is ridiculous. On points, there is value here, especially for a WOH Globalist. But for cash, there are better values in Tokyo.
I remember when Space Invaders arcade game came out. I had a system to beating it.
You don’t want one of those Austin Powers moments with the bathroom screen 😂
lov the new intro
Love this review! Been having difficulty finding an affordable modern room in Tokyo. They're mostly quite traditional and expensive for the larger rooms.
Kevin – as usual, great
Refreshing to see a Centric that’s that welcoming! And better than Auckland Park!! Wow! They target aging millennials? Almost spit out my coffee when you said you should “like or trust your roommate” bc of the bathroom door situation 😂😂😂
Does the hotel’s staff speak English well enough for communication with us travelers who speak no Japanese?
Another excellent review Kevin. A very classy property overall. Thanks for sharing.
