Hotel New Otani Tokyo (1,479) - Urban Paradise with a 400-Year Garden

Ten acres of historic garden wrap three wings that together hold 1,400-plus rooms, 33 banquet halls and 37 restaurants. A keynote, break-outs, gala in the garden and over-night stay can all be run without leaving the property. On-site parking for motor-coaches and a 10-minute drive to the Diet and Kasumigaseki ministries make it a proven venue for large-scale government or corporate congresses.

Cherry blossoms in spring, fireflies in summer, fiery maples in fall and snowy lanterns in winter—the garden alone is a year-round showpiece. Guests can sample a tea ceremony in “Ginshō-tei,” then move to Edo-style sushi or Michelin-starred French at one of 37 dining venues. A pool, spa, Shintō shrine and shopping arcade complete a one-stop “business-plus-well-being” resort in the heart of Tokyo.
