There are few places to sit and it can get cold depending on the time of year, but you can take a break at the food court in Diversity.

The life-size Gundam can be viewed for free, and the Diversity menu is in the general price range.

Access

The nearest stations are Tokyo Teleport Station (Rinkai Line) or Daiba Station (Yurikamome), but you can also get there in about 15 minutes on foot from Odaiba Kaihin Koen Station (Water bus).
If you want to go to the full-sized Gundam from there, you will need to take the route that crosses the overpass in front of you, so in that case, it will be easier to find if you pass through Diver City Tokyo Plaza. Enter from the 1st floor entrance, go up the short escalator in front of you, and go straight. You will see a food court, just keep going, turn left around the center of the food court, and go out through the exit. You can see the back of the life-sized Gundam in front.
If you do not want to enter DiverCity Tokyo Plaza, first aim for the wide promenade on the south side that stretches east to west. If you enter this promenade and pass near Diver City Tokyo Plaza, you can easily spot a life-sized Gundam.
