Hotel New Otani Tokyo prides itself in providing its guests with the best dining experience, not only in terms of taste and quality, but also from the perspective of health. Our chefs often visit farmers and producers in person, seeking the best meat and vegetables to serve in our restaurants and banquets. “J-cereal” is our original multigrain mix, which was created as such an effort to pursue wellness in the food we offer, and is rich with proteins, dietary fibers, minerals, and vitamins. Enjoy Hotel New Otani’s wellness menus at our restaurants.
With a history of more than 400 years, the Japanese garden at Hotel New Otani Tokyo had in the past been the property of various known samurai lords. The 10-acre-ground features several ancient stone lanterns, scarlet bridges over koi ponds, a stone garden, waterfall, as well as a myriad of flowers and rich foliage that bloom or change colors from season to season. While nestled in the heart of this busy city, the quiet and peaceful ambience that enfolds the expanse provides a moment of repose and rejuvenation to those who stroll its paths.
Medical clinics are located within the hotel.
Please notify hotel staff immediately when you are not feeling well.
