Concierge can book the tickets to the local entertainment: Kabuki play (offering headphones for English translation), Tea ceremony and Sumo tournament. Sumo is not only a national sport; it is filled with cultural and religious rituals. On top of a raised ring, two sumo wrestlers compete for the championship of the season. Many of these matches last only a few seconds, but some can extend for several minutes. Whenever the tournament is out of season, guests may be able to catch a glimpse of the sumo wrestlers during morning practice at one of their “stables”.
Dramatically perched on the 52nd floor of Park Hyatt Tokyo is the dynamic New York Grill, with floor-to-ceiling glass windows offering breathtaking views of Tokyo. The contemporary and sophisticated interior features substantial paintings of New York scenes by Italian artist Valerio Adami and a wine cellar housing over 1600 bottles of wines. Chef de Cuisine and his team practice their art in the stunning open kitchen, drawing guests into the dining experience. The menu features a wide selection of prime quality Japanese and imported beef, market fresh seafood and poultry roasted to perfection on the rotisserie.
On a clear day, one can see Mount Fuji from the hotel’s exquisite contemporary Japanese restaurant, Kozue. The menu features only the finest seasonal ingredients for the hearty, home-style dishes which are uniquely presented on beautiful earthenware, porcelain and lacquer ware created by noted Japanese craftsmen. Kozue features an extensive sake list for the perfect accompaniment.
Girandole, relaxed and romantic yet full of life in true French brasserie tradition, offers all day dining and simple, delicious fare that is satisfyingly authentic. The dinner menu highlights signature brasserie dishes, and the lunch menu also includes selected Asian favorites. A stunning two-storey collage of 144 black and white photographs depicting European cafe life sets a distinctive ambiance.
A sky lit bamboo garden, creating a mood of serenity both night and day, is the centerpiece of The Peak Lounge. Washed with natural light and offering spectacular views of Tokyo, the garden setting is perfect for the enjoyment of luscious desserts and fresh homemade cakes, classical English afternoon tea, light cuisine and cocktails.
Even native New Yorkers have pronounced the atmosphere in the New York Bar “more New York than New York”. The decor is simple, the energy enormous. In contrast to the black ebony chairs, ebonized walnut flooring and the rugged steel supports of the floor-to-ceiling windows are the artist Valerio Adami’s huge murals of Radio City Music Hall and the Rainbow Room in bold, fluid colors. Vintage cognac and brandy, classic and original cocktails, and the largest selection of Californian wines in Japan are served.
