The Imperial Hotel, Tokyo has stood facing Hibiya Park and the Imperial Palace gardens since 1890, one of the most storied hotels in Japan and a Leading Hotels of the World Sustainability Leader. Its history includes a celebrated Frank Lloyd Wright building, and its service remains a national benchmark.
The dining alone spans a small city. Les Saisons is one of Tokyo's finest French rooms, led by chef Thierry Voisin of the multi-Michelin-starred Les Crayères; Tokyo Nadaman serves kaiseki in an interior by architect Togo Murano; Nakata pours traditional Tokyo sushi; Kamon handles teppanyaki; and the Imperial Viking Sal, Japan's first buffet restaurant, opened here in 1958. Parkside Diner, San Applause and Torakuro complete the roster.
For a first stay in Tokyo steeped in history, the Imperial has no equal.
