Over at the Tokyo Edition, the glittering new Gold Bar offers prime people-watching and a drinks list that pays homage to the pre-Prohibition golden age of tipples-and it's worth a visit even if you’re not staying at the hotel.ĭespite a tumultuous two years of pandemic-induced dining restrictions, the food scene is thriving with the arrival of a new wave of ambitious, young chefs bringing fresh perspective and international flair to the Japanese capital.

With expansive views of the Imperial Palace, a tranquility pool in the lounge, and Zen-influenced accents in the guest rooms, the Four Seasons Otemachi is an oasis of calm in the financial district-with Michelin-starred French cuisine at Est and sophisticated cocktails at bar Virtus. The buzzy vibe at the Kimpton channels Manhattan with design inspired by New York’s art world, and dog-friendly dining at District brasserie. The hottest hotel openings were Kimpton Shinjuku Tokyo, the Four Seasons Otemachi, and The Tokyo Edition Toranomon.
