Towering above the streets of Tokyo, uninterrupted views of the city’s skyline aren’t a tall order at any of Mandarin Oriental’s twelve in-house restaurants; sample them all for an international fare and find your favourite.
Cut with clean lines, the minimalist décor mingles with a traditional Japanese elegance; you know you have happened upon somewhere special the moment you step foot into the soaring Sky Lobby. Neighbour to few other skyscrapers (somewhat uncharacteristically for this metropolis), views of the surrounding city are certainly a wow factor here – the higher up in this glossy tower you are, the better. Vistas are framed by oversized picture windows and complete with plush banquettes from which to admire them. The gallery itself extends beyond the hotel to Tokyo Garden Terrace Kioicho, home to a choice of shops, bars and restaurants.
Guests won’t need to leave the hotel’s bounds for culinary delights, though. Washoku Souten serves up traditional Japanese fare with a contemporary twist within its crystal-clad walls, the adjoining sake bar offering the perfect pairing. At Oasis Garden, all-day dining comes in the form of both buffet and à la carte, the hanging-garden-style interiors bringing a moment of peace to any meal. And when the night calls for a tipple, Sky Gallery Lounge Levita is the spot to be for twinkling Tokyo views, while The Bar illumiid beckons those seeking a sophisticated, calm space to while away the evening.
