Hotel New Otani Tokyo

Hotel New Otani Tokyo

During my trip across Japan this September, I had the luxury of staying at many amazing hotels and the chance to experience things I never did before. But one of the highlights of this entire trip was definitely the Hotel New Otani Tokyo. This hotel is located in Tokyo's Chiyoda City at the very heart of Tokyo. Many famous tourist destinations such as the Imperial Palace, Tokyo Station, and Kanda Shrine are located only a short trip away.

The hotel is conveniently located near the Akasaka-Mitsuke Station, so if you take the subway there you do not have to walk along to reach the hotel. I was very tired from my trip so I was lucky that I didn't have to walk a long time to reach it. Hotel New Otani Tokyo has 3 buildings included and these are the New Otani Garden Court, New Otani Garden Tower, and the Main in which my room was located. It also has a spectacular Japanese garden that is over 400 years old. I have to say that the garden was truly one of the selling points for me personally, and I strolled through it many times when I was there. One thing that amazed me when I finally arrived at the hotel was its sheer size. As I already said, it incorporates three buildings and has a capacity of over 2000 visitors, all of which are provided with world-class care. There are also many meeting halls and banquet rooms inside the hotel itself. Because of that, Hotel New Otani Tokyo is often used as a venue for many summits and meetings. One more perk of this hotel is a large number of restaurants, bars, and lounges, all of which are high class and extremely luxurious. As a matter of fact, there are 38 restaurants and 33 banquet rooms in this hotel. One part of the hotel that I especially enjoyed was the buffet restaurant "View & Dining The Sky" located at the top of the hotel. It offers a wide variety of meals all with a spectacular 360-degree view of the city.

Regarding the room in which stayed, as you probably guessed it, it was absolutely amazing. It was just what I expected from a hotel such as this and, in many ways, it exceeded my expectations. I will talk more about the room in a following blog post so stay tuned. I also loved the decor of the hotel which was clearly inspired by a fusion of traditional Japanese and modern Western style.

As I already said, one of the main selling points of this hotel is the spectacular traditional Japanese garden. It contains a wide variety of flowers, trees, bushes, and other foliage. It is decorated in a traditional style and contains several ponds and even a big waterfall which is a perfect place to take some unforgettable photos. There's also a restaurant located right in the center of the garden so you can dine while being surrounded by this beautiful nature. This amazing garden truly feels like an oasis of peace and serenity in a buzzing city that never sleeps. 

Honestly, this was one of the most impressive hotels I have ever been to, and I am looking forward to coming here again.
