Keep in mind that to-die-for lodge in Misplaced in Translation? The one the place Invoice Murray is totally pampered, sipping Suntory whiskey in that swanky jazz bar, rendezvousing with Scarlett Johansson on the sky pool, or gazing out his wall of home windows from 45 flooring above Asia’s most refined metropolis…that is the Park Hyatt Tokyo, and it’s even higher than Hollywood portrays. We spent just a few unforgettable nights right here basking within the stylish interiors, eating like royalty, and feeling like starlets ourselves.
Fashionable Architectural Marvel
Set within the 52-story Shinjuku Park Tower, the Park Hyatt Tokyo begins on the 14th flooring with a dramatic glass atrium and foyer, however for the final word en-suite views, the rooms begin on the forty first flooring. We walked into architect Kenzo Tange’s fashionable marvel and knew we have been in for a deal with.
Park Hyatt Rooms
We beamed as much as our room and have been wooed by its magnificence and calming impact. The spacious room’s smooth palette, pretty furnishings, effective artwork, and views of Mount Fuji felt worlds above town avenue.
Champagne Over Mt. Fuji
The Park Hyatt staff stunned us with a honeymoon bottle of champagne. We love this pouring picture…it’s like Mt. Fuji is erupting with Veuve Clicquot!
Cocktails at New York Bar
Even with a bubbly below our belt, we couldn’t miss pre-dinner cocktails on the legendary New York Bar. We ordered their signature New York cocktail (Maker’s Mark, pomegranate, and lime…yum!) and soaked up the sultry sounds of dwell jazz vocalist Karen Jones. Anne’s dad is a big-time Jazz fan, who additionally spent years residing and dealing in Japan, so he was fairly jealous!
Dinner at Kozue
Dinner at New York is claimed to be among the best American eating places in all of Tokyo, however we determined to department out and bask in one thing a bit extra unique at Kozue, the Park Hyatt’s artistic up to date Japanese restaurant. We ordered the five-course Shun meal, beginning with assorted seasonal delicacies, adopted by sashimi of candy prawn, prime tuna, and yellowtail, accompanied by a number of sake. The very best half was that with every spherical, our server would convey over a tray of sake glasses—from William Yeoward crystal to handcrafted pottery to whichever suited our temper.
Consuming Shabu Shabu
Shabu Shabu, Japanese-style scorching pot, is a delicacy we have been dying to strive. Dipping the Yonezawa beef sirloin and greens into boiling broth was as enjoyable because it was scrumptious… and the view wasn’t unhealthy both.
Honeymoon Shock on the Park Hyatt
We bought again to our room feeling over the moon from our romantic night….and it simply bought higher. A bouquet of flowers, chocolate truffles, and a handwritten be aware have been there to want us an excellent night time. The Park Hyatt’s consideration to element by no means ceased to amaze!
Early Morning Swim on the Sky Pool
Not a lot can inspire us to rise up earlier than daybreak, however when you’ve gotten a near-Olympic-sized floating over town lights, early morning laps immediately sound like a effective thought. The sky pool was one of many many options on the spa, together with seven totally different remedy rooms, a exercise house, and an array of lessons (hula dancing included).
Room Service for Breakfast
We bought again to our room, and room service arrived simply on time. Omelets, recent fruit, and croissants from their very personal French pastry chef have been all scrumptious…and all the pieces all the time tastes higher from the comforts of a honeymoon suite.
If you’re in search of the crème de la crème of up to date Tokyo lodging, the Park Hyatt Tokyo is the one place to remain.
