Fodor's Expert Review Granbell Hotel Shibuya

Location, location, location—that's the Granbell, and with a minimalist pop-art style to boot. This gray-walled boutique hotel is tucked within a cluster of restaurants and shops near the West Exit of Shibuya Station. The rooms, which come in either a highly colorful "artistic" or warm "comfortable," are small but tastefully turned out with crisp linens. Bathrooms are enclosed in glass and feature overhead showers. In addition to the Japanese restaurant and pizza parlor on the premises, the immediate area has hundreds of dining and drinking alternatives.
