Park Hyatt Tokyo

Yes. As good as it gets. One of my favorite places in the world. So gracious with the upgrade to Diplomat Suite. The service and room were on point. Nothing was overlooked. The view was spectacular. They even assisted me with some tape in the middle of the night. If you can at least once, stay at PHT. Yes it is expensive but it worth it. The Diamond breakfast the next day in the suite was seriously unbelievable especially the dark hot chocolate which was so thick and creamy. A visit would not be complete without a stop at New York Bar. If you want more details overall, PM me.

I stayed at a smaller suite using the rewards upgrade at Park Hyatt for a few days and the experience was pleasant throughout. The hotel is located a bit away from the Shinjuku train station. About 15 min walk or a quick 3 minute ride from their complimentary shuttle. Since we arrived late and finding a taxi stand was going to take time we just walked it (shuttle ends before 10PM). The entrance to the hotel is on top of the ramp since the bottom entrance is for the office portion of the building. So if you have luggage just push it up the car ramp instead of struggling on the stairs. If you want to take the shuttle out to the station best to call ahead and reserve since he van is pretty small.
When we went up they asked if we were checking in and asked our name. We were escorted up to the lobby after the first elevators where we were greeted by the concierge. Rather than to check in at the desk the concierge took us to our room right away and did the paper work in the suite and explained to us some of the features of the room. The hotel uses a physical key system so if you lose it I assume it wouldn’t be good.
Since the hotel resides on top of the office floors the view must be pretty nice from all the rooms. Our room faced the station and Skytree tower and I preferred the view at night over the day since it glowed nicely. The view is nice from all the shared areas too whether it be the restaurants or the gym/​pool/​spa area.
As for diamond benefits you can get your breakfast from the buffet or order Japanese cuisine separately. Technically you can have both since they won’t really stop you from using the buffet even when getting the Japanese set but I doubt anyone is that hungry. They recommended that we get some fresh juice from the buffet bar and brought us some assortment of fruits from the buffet when we finished the Japanese set which consisted of Japanese comfort foods like tofu soup, grilled and steamed fish, umeboshi and the likes. It was a really healthy and hearty kaiseki style set. Buffet is your standard American affair where eggs are ordered separately at your table (fried, scrambled, benedict) but they also have some rice, porridge and miso soup for some simple Japanese flavours. I loved their small packets of nori since they were so cute and delicious.
During evenings they offer a selection of alcoholic drinks at the bar for free for diamond members. The draft beer is pretty damn tasty and creamy like your typical Japanese draft beers. They also offer some light food too.
You can also use the spa for free as a diamond member. The spa is similar to your standard bath house. Hot whirlpool, cold water pool, dry sauna of varying temperatures, shower stalls and of course all the amenities like hair gel, lotion, etc. The pool is flat with lanes designed for laps. Swim hats are mandatory which they lend to you. Gym is located on the sides of the pool floor.
Concierge are very accommodating and are great at making reservations for you. They will also recommend restaurants if you have no idea where to go but have a general criteria like type of food or budget to work with.
There is a bakery/​café on the entrance level where you can pickup some snacks or to go meals and there is also two convenience stores around the corner if you want to save some money on food and drinks.
All in all it was a great experience staying at the Park Hyatt. The staff were incredibly nice and helpful regardless of who you talked to. They are generous with their amenities, especially loved those small Aesop items. It is a bit pricy but Tokyo hotels in general tend to be. I think given the choice it’s worth it to spend an extra hundred or so to stay here if you can, especially if you have Hyatt status.

AMAZING. Impeccable service, fantastic amenities, great location. What more could you ask for? Everyone was so helpful and accommodating. Shuttle service to local Shinjuku station, pool with a view and service, yummy breakfast buffet with America, Euro & Japanese fare. Money exchange without fee too. Quiet, clean rooms.

Went to their New York bar on a high floor (52 I think) that has amazing views and was featured in the movie Lost In Translation. Swanky feel and pricey but we discovered that if you can sit at the bar until 8pm on a Friday without paying the pricey cover charge (8pm is when the live music starts) and enjoy a drink and the view and the fancy hotel bar feel!

Say what you will about the somewhat dated but well maintained 90’s décor and maybe the wait for drinks at the New York Bar, but the Park Hyatt was one of the best serviced hotels I have ever been in my life.
Things I remembered:
–The doorman ran down the long driveway to help me with my bags, because I walked from the Hilton Tokyo nearby.
–The gift box of snacks, filled ice bucket, and the hand written note when i entered the room was a nice touch (Maybe a Hyatt Platinum status perk)
–The Pool is AMAZING. ultra low chlorine, complimentary swim goggles, and a water bottle and robe folded neatly on my chair after i got out.
–The concierge giving me truly realistic and local recommendations on what to see, eat, and do.
–The views from every room, every direction, yes. those are not to be missed.
–Smoking allowed in the bar, but not smelling much smoke from other patrons.
–Did I mention the pool and the views from the exercise area?
–Aesop products in the bathroom
I am glad my friend convinced me to stay here, because it was totally worth it. Thanks, Lila H.

This hotel is an elegant, world class 5 star hotel with a very friendly and attentive staff and absolutely stunning facilities. The views of Tokyo (and if you are lucky — Mount Fuji) are stunning day and night. The rooms are spacious and lovely. The bathroom is very well appointed — love the separate shower and soaking tub + Aesop bath products. You must try the breakfast buffet — has both western and Japanese options and all are exquisitely prepared. Try the to order freshly squeezed OJ. Great way to start your day in Tokyo. And of course — you must at least have a cocktail and listen to some jazz at the iconic New York Bar and Grill. Arrive before 9pm for the best chance to get a table. Lastly — if you have some time — book a spa appointment. The facilities are amazing and my massage was fantastic. I can’t wait to come back to the Park Hyatt in Tokyo. I really enjoyed my experience here.

The Park Hyatt Tokyo is a true 5 Star hotel, elegant in every sense, including the price. The hotel itself starts on the 45^th. floor of the Tokyo Gas building and goes up from there. Every room has an amazing view of the city, depending on the weather you can even see Mt. Fuji from your room. The rooms are very large by Tokyo standards, extremely comfortable with ever amenity you can want. The Hyatt staff is spot on and always there when you need them. The hotel is about a 10 minutes walk to Shinjuku train station that will take you anywhere you want in Tokyo, there are a lot of great restaurants near the station as well.
If you’re a 5 Star kind of person, this is the hotel you want to stay at.

I just read some of the other reviews and it seems unanimous that this could be the best hotel in the world.

Our last stop in Japan was Tokyo, and we were able to stay at the Park Hyatt for a few nights. As soon as we arrived at the hotel, we were welcomed by the staff at the front door, and escorted all the way from there up the elevator, through the two restaurants, and the library and into the reception area. We were there for a few minutes, and then were taken to our room to finish the check in process.
Our room was on the 45^th floor, which was actually really convenient, since the access to the restaurants, as well as the spa/​gym are on that same floor.
The room was spacious, and had the bedroom area, a decorative wall separated that from the dressing area/​closet, and then there was the bathroom. The bathroom was also spacious, with a separate shower and bathtub.
Best feature of the bathroom is definitely the heated floor!
The Aesop amenities are also great!!! The room also has a nice kettle, and a teapot & cups, which are really handy.
The pool area is a separate elevator ride away from the spa. Very open, and a great place to swim — providing you with amazing views, and a respite from the City below.
The staff is very friendly, and helpful, and made our stay very comfortable.
Overall, a great hotel, and definitely a must if you are in Tokyo.

This is a very difficult review to remain objective with. On the one hand, it’s obviously a 5-​star hotel, with phenomenal concierge that even helped us secure a Jiro reservation. On the other hand, those prices. The only way to remain fair is to assess the quality of the stay against the price you pay. My general sense as I think about our visit is that the hotel is slightly over-​hyped.
Full disclosure: the two of us stayed here for free. But that leads me to your tip of the day if you’re considering a trip to Japan. If you apply for a Hyatt credit card, you get a signing bonus of two free nights at any Hyatt location in the world, including the Park Hyatt line. So me and my travel companion each applied, for a total of four free nights. Other than incurring an annual fee, there really is nothing else to it. Just redeem your free nights. Just cancel the card, if you’re so inclined.
The highlights of the hotel are: the awesome views on the upper-​40s and lower 50s floors, the sleek décor, the wonderful staff, and the gym. It’s always fun to stay on a high floor, particularly if you get a view of Mount Fuji (although I don’t find the Tokyo skyline to be that interesting). Décor is very elegant, with a library that precedes access to the rooms. The restaurant area is surrounded by large glass windows that create a very pleasing ambiance. The sensual mood of the hotel is very gratifying and «feels» rich. The gym area is very large, with abundant machinery that surrounds the pool. It, too, provides panoramic views of the city. I could have enjoyed a whole day in here if I were a gym rat — which I am the opposite of. Whatever that would be. «Couch cat», I guess?
Concierge and staff were superb while we were here. It’s the level of service that almost makes you uncomfortable because it’s so accommodating («Like seriously guys, I’m not that important.»). From the moment you approach the front doors and are greeted by staff eager to handle your luggage, to restaurant reservations, it is all present. We split our four nights into two legs of the trip; we started and ended our Japan trip in Tokyo, at the Park Hyatt. They gladly held our large suitcases here while we ventured out of Tokyo for ten days.
The elements that factored in to a less-​than-​5-​star rating are: the price, the location, and the lack of various details one might expect when paying these prices. I did a quick price check of the Park Hyatt Tokyo compared to other Park Hyatts around the world, and this location is on the higher end of cost. I’m not an expert in macro economics, but it is what it is. The hotel is in the Shinjuku district, which is likely far from most other stops in your itinerary. Plus, it’s a small hike from the nearest train stations. Others have said they offer shuttle service between the hotel and train stations, though.
Other minor things were: no free breakfast, the cost of massage and spa services (around $ 200), and no particular frills that stood out in the room (although ice water and tea was available upon arrival, woohoo!).
There is no doubt this is a superb hotel, and you won’t be disappointed, should you choose to stay here. However, if you seek a Park Hyatt experience, consider doing it somewhere else, where it’s a little cheaper. Unless you get the Hyatt card. Or are stinking rich. Actually, if you’re stinking rich, the lowly Park Hyatt is probably way below your standards of excellence.
Staff: ⁵⁄₅
Niceties: 3.5÷5
Amenities: 4.5÷5
How much I care about the whole ‘Lost in Translation’ thing: ⁰⁄₅

If you’ve ever seen the movie «Lost in Translation,» then you’ll be familiar with the Park Hyatt bar. Located on the 52^nd floor of this beautiful Hyatt hotel in Shinjuku, the view from this place is breathless.
The cover charge and price of drinks and food here… well that also leaves you breathless. There was a ¥2,400 cover and drinks here will set you back anywhere from ¥1,800 to ¥1,900. Likewise with the tapas menu. So be prepared when you come here to drop some cash.
But you certainly pay for what you get… great live entertainment including Jazz and service like no other. Recommend you try to stop by at least once in your lifetime for the experience. Weekends are immensely tough to get in so I went on a Monday night which was more manageable and didn’t need reservations.

This hotel is just as gorgeous as it looks in Lost in Translation. Our room had a stunning view of Tokyo, and it was huge for an urban hotel. Spacious, well-​appointed bathroom with comfy robes (even minis if you’re traveling with littles). Super attentive service when we called to complain about the overly complex, barely functional wireless iron. The onsite restaurants are fabulous and we took in some very authentic Jazz in the lounge in the late evening. Concierge was helpful and made us a fantastic reservation for sushi outside the hotel.

Movie dream come true. Pretending to follow the adventures of Bill and Scarlett, the lounge and bar were everything we could ask for.

Here’s what you need to know: Where is the 6 star rating when you need one? A 5 star rating is inadequate to demonstrate the quality of this hotel and the service.
I cannot imagine that a Four Seasons or Aman property could be any better than this Tokyo Park Hyatt. No detail is overlooked, and no guest request is too obscure to service. And the hotel itself is magically beautiful and well adorned, with a view unsurpassed in Tokyo — Mt Fuji on one side and the Tokyo skyline on the other… Even the entry level rooms (about $ 800/​night) are SPECTACULAR, and have stunning views. There is no mediocre room in the hotel.
The world omotenashi in Japanese — spirit of service — is truly a way of life at this hotel. We had the most delightful four days/​nights at this hotel on the 44^th floor celebrating our wedding anniversary and my wife’s birthday that are very close to each other. We were treated like royalty by each member of the staff, who always went out of our way to service any request.
My 2 year old daughter was unwell during our stay, and the concern and care shown by the staff was amazing — they immediately made an appointment at an international clinic that had an English speaking doctor and arranged for a cab for us. The cab fare was paid by the clinic, which eventually gets built into the high cost of the consult of course :) everybody inquired about our daughter for each of the following days thereafter. We had forgotten my daughter’s milk bottle cleaner at our hotel in Kyoto, and the staff was so accommodating and got us cleaning solution and a bottle brush. Similarly, when we asked for help to buy us throat lozenges, they brought us some Japanese lozenges in addition to the Vicks we had requested.
The concierge service was excellent, and always kept our child in mind when making reservations and recommending places to visit and eat at.
The Morning matcha (green tea) and coffee in the room, while enjoying the sunrise at 6:30 was an amazing experience. Ice water is served with the drinks, a choice of brown and white sugar cubes individually wrapped, and a choice of cream or milk. It took about 5 minutes from ordering over the phone to being delivered in the room. All housekeeping /​room service was delivered in 5 – 7 minutes
The Ice bucket and hot water dispenser is checked and filled twice
My only complaint about the stay was that despite being Hyatt Platinum members, our room was not upgraded (which was done at other great Park Hyatt properties like Paris Vendome in our previous stays). That was unfortunate and disappointing.
other suggestions — while I liked the old school metal keys, they do become annoying and cumbersome to open the door each time, especially when you have a child stroller or shopping bags in hand.

This hotel may in fact be the most beautiful hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The front drive is simple, but from the moment we stepped out of our taxi we were given the royal treatment with their staff hitting on all the key areas:
Welcome
Address by name
Personalized check-​in and escort to room
*Champagne and sweets with a congratulatory card for our honeymoon.
The fact that the heart of the hotel itself is located over 40 floors above ground makes for scenic views from the beautiful bar and dinning area. The library preceding the front desk is beautifully decorated and well lit. The room itself was beautiful and the bathroom equally so, equipped with soaking tub and TV after those long days of walking. We received complimentary coffee service each morning which we enjoyed more than we expected to. The Aesop amenities were some of the best I’ve ever used (Fragrance and quality wise for Shampoo, Body wash, Conditioner and lotion). The New York bar had amazing views of the city and offers up live music Friday night. *The bar is free for hotel guests*. They have a complimentary shuttle between the hotel and Shinjuku station that operates until about 9pm. We enjoyed being able to get to and from the station easily. Just be sure to note where the shuttle picks up because there is no sign designating Hyatt pickup/​dropoff. Can’t wait to come back to this iconic Hyatt for another stay. Special thanks to Y. Yoshizaki for excellent service and making our stay memorable.

My Lost in Translation dreams came true upon walking many blocks to get here and entering this gorgeous building. We went up to the last floor (maybe 50) and had dinner at New York Bar & Grill. I was SORELY disappointed that they did not let us sit by a window as we requested. According to them those tables were reserved but two of them remained empty during our entire meal.
$ 500 bill later and they told us we could «enjoy the view» and gestured to the very same tables we were denied an hour earlier. We had our last bit of wine by the window but I was still mad as hell. It’s not like you’re in Tokyo every weekend.
The food was good and the service, superb, so I will not take a crap on that. This place is pricey but we knew that going in. It was just like I dreamed after watching my favorite movie so so many times.
If you’re a fan and want to have dinner by the windows, make reservations so you don’t miss out on one of the best views in the city. Arigato very much.

Wonderful high tea experience.
The setting is so beautiful: like sitting inside a green house — glass all around, with marble floors, bamboo tree things in the center. At one point a bride and groom came in to take pictures lol
Location is hard to get to, and little difficult to find. Once out of subway it was a 10 – 15 min walk.
The food was good. Loved the warm scones with orange bits. The strawberry jam was so addictive, I had placed a spoonful with every bite! The mocha latte, and green tea, were my beverage of choice! Unlimited drinks!
In addition to the standard 3 tier tray of
goodies, they also came around with trays on small bites!!! One tray of 4 savory options. And one tray of 4 sweet options!!! It’s included so no extra charge, and more food! Yum! Best value for $ 45 per person.
Tip: try and make a reservation. We didn’t and almost got turned away. The group of 3 in front of us that didn’t have reservation got turned away. Us, party of 2, waited 30 min and they found a table. Their tea time is 2−5p.

Un lieu extra qui se passé de commentaire regardant la vue. On né vient là que pour ça!
Dans un immeuble de bureaux, l’hôtel s’offre le luxe d’avoir plusieurs restaurants/​bars avec vue.
Le samedi soir un groupe de musique vient jouer, les cocktail sont délicieux, le service exceptionnel même si le niveau d’anglais des serveurs en blanc n’est pas vraiment en ligne avec le luxe du lieu.
Bref, endroit incontournable de Tokyo, même si logiquement cher. On y trouve à 80% que des occidentaux.

No Bill Murray sighting of any kind. Navigating the maze to get to the 41^st floor, aka Hotel Lobby, then ride the elevator directly to your end of hallway suite. Welcome package includes cookies, dried fruits, nuts and macha green tea treats in a sealed plastic wrapping. In room hot water dispenser for your sudden urge for tea. Espresso machine comes in handy for that perfect crema. Lap pool on my floor (47^th), NY bar on the 52^nd, gym opens 24/​7, did my fastest 15K on treadmill the other night and it felt eerie running so high up. The other side of the gym offers stretch, yoga and pilate classes, as well as a nice firm but cushiony mat for the usual evening stretching exercise, yes there is a foam roller and medicine ball. Breakfast is efficient and good. Spa, which is an add on service, is way worth the money. Try to do hot tub, then cold plunge, then the three different sauna rooms.
A good escape from the daily grind. Better than Park Hyatt New York, so I’m told. I reckon it’s the heated Japanese toilet did the deed.

This may be the best hotel I’ve ever visited. Period. Forget Las Vegas suites, forget glamorous cabanas in the Maldives, forget what you know about hotels. The Park Hyatt Tokyo has become my #1 on my list of hotels I have stayed at, and it’s probably going to stay there for a long, long time.
This may be one of the longest reviews I’ve written thus far, but even then words can’t describe my experience with the Park Hyatt Tokyo. All I have are raves and praises for this highly-​sought hotel.
Immediately upon arrival, a petite lady opened my door, took my carry on luggage (which was heavy), and insisted on bringing me to the front desk, which by the way is on the 41^st floor of the building. Already, I was amazed at the way the Japanese provide hospitality towards their guests, and as you read on, you’ll see just how detailed and focused they are on making sure you enjoy your stay here. Sure, it’s a five star hotel with a history behind it, but there are some 5-​star hotels (Bellagio, Aria and Venetian, I’m looking at you) that just lack some form of proper etiquette.
You enter through the 2^nd floor which on the left side of the entrance is a lovely bakery and pastry shop that I’m sure girls would die for. I know a few did when they saw the macarons and cakes. The hallway to the elevator is impressive with artworks that culminate modern and abstract art together. After flying towards the 41^st floor, we arrive at the foyer of yet another lounge, which is actually called The Peak Lounge, with a sky-​lit bamboo garden that seeks to embrace your inner panda-​ness and zen-​like behaviors.
As you’re walking through towards the front desk, you’ll realize a few things. First, this is definitely a 5-​star hotel when you see celebrities and CEOs walking out out the hotel lobby. Second, the design of the hotel itself is magnificent to behold, with its library and various windows for tourists to gaze and see the beauty of the Tokyo skyline. Remember, the attendant is still holding my carry-​on all the while walking through miles towards the front desk. Third, you are treated like royalty from beginning to the end. Just keep on reading, and you’ll see why.
Upon reaching reception, the transition from one employee to another was seamless. This was another thing that I hope to nurture in my growth as a person; the front desk attendant was confident, smooth and rather dedicated in making sure that I got what I wanted. When she briefly talked about the standard room, I asked politely if I could perhaps make an upgrade to a deluxe room with a city view. She was able to accommodate that request and check me in early! That’s 5-​star service right there!
After visiting a few local attractions and eating some delicious tonkatsu and ramen on my way back, I went back to the front desk and got my room key. My room was a Park Deluxe King on the 45^th floor. Oh yeah, better not be afraid of heights, that’s for sure! Again, here comes that service from the attendants, following you each step of the way, making sure you know where you’re going, what you can use, what kind of amenities one needs, and checking the temperature for sleep. I really value small details when it comes to business like this, and the Park Hyatt Tokyo has scored a perfect 100 in my book.
The Deluxe king was more than I expected. In fact, this was another reason why I value this hotel so highly. Sure, it may not be as big as say a Vdara suite or have an inclusive package like the Hyatt Maldives, but it’s the SMALL details again that comes into play. The Platinum welcome amenity was a lovely box of chocolate, and two bottles of water. But here’s the difference: when you start looking around, you start noticing things like an international electrical port, iPhone setup to the sound system, ice ALREADY in the ice box, enough towels to clean a soaked bathtub, a kimono, room temperature set at my cold temperature, and the list goes on and on!
The bathroom is incredibly large for Japan, with a full-​size tub, a shower that contains two shower heads to make showering all the more fun (DAT BACK SHOWER HEAD DOE), a sink and that TOTO toilet everyone craves when they need to do their duties! Combined with simple decorations, this deluxe room has already surpassed my expectations. Above all else, it’s the way Park Hyatt Tokyo aims to serve you way before you can even comprehend it!
Park Hyatt Tokyo, congratulations on being the best hotel ever. Period. I will be coming back to Tokyo for sure, and will definitely stay at the Park Hyatt for sure. Time to save up those Hyatt points once more!

The single best hotel I’ve ever stayed in.
Spring time in Tokyo! It’s March. It’s pretty. It’s very cold.
First– you arrive into this place and you get escorted to the 42^nd floor to check in. Yes, you read that right. 42^nd floor. The bell desk is swift, precise and absolutely professional. From my taxi to the elevator took a total of 2 minutes with my luggage’s and I didn’t have to lift a single finger. Prior to this, I spent a month traveling all over Asia. I went from Bangkok — Phuket — Ko Samui and few other Thai Islands — Malaysia– Indonesia– Singapore– Borneo and this, this was my last stop. I’ve witnessed and conversed with many different cultures by the time I’ve arrived here. None, I mean none of the 12 cities in 7 different places came close to the service and politeness that is Park Hyatt!
42^nd floor –the door open, the veil dropped. The view– gasp! Magnificent is an under statement. There’s a stunning coffee shop, restaurant for afternoon tea. We were then escorted to the reception through another stunning, super well polished restaurant.
Then came the reception. My seat was pulled by a very good looking Japanese man in suit. When I accidentally dropped my pen, another devastatingly good looking men dove down to get it for me. We were seated, greeted and treated like loyalties! The service here is unmatched by almost any hotels I’ve stayed in. The price point, it isn’t the highest. its around $ 700 a night. And worth every single penny! And Disney Aulani? Yes, that cost me the same amount but the service– oh the service is a joke compared to this hotel. Then again, Japan stole my heart. I’ve never had such difficulty trying to translate. Yet, I’ve never met such polite people so eager to help. After my several trips to Asia, I can certainly without a doubt say that friendliest people live in Japan.
Two hours car ride from the Airport to this hotel at 6 am was tiring but after being treated so well, I was so giddy, excited and awake! I couldn’t wait to get to my room. We were escorted to the room by another handsome man! 52^nd floor– the view: stunning! The room– meticulous. Everything straight, structured. There was green tea! There was stunning devices! There was the view! The amazing shower — bathtub — toiletries — robes! Ahhhhh. It was almost heaven! Almost!
I spent the next hour enjoying the bed and the view! I even requested breakfast at noon. And guess what? I got it! I’ve ate my way through every cities and I wasn’t feeling too hot to try new things. So I asked for something simple and something I get at home.
Door bell rings– O_O…The most beautiful rice and egg delivery– ever! it has little nori flakes! Flavored eggs with some kind of unicorn dust maybe. Magic!
The next few days stay in this place was mind-​blowing to say the least. Amazing food! Oh and afternoon tea? Stunning!!! A must try.
The hotel offer shuttle service to Shinjuku train station. Everyone take the train and it is probably the best metro system I’ve ever seen. The shuttle leaves every hour and it require reservation. We missed it by 2 minutes. They are very on time. Worried not. We were offered a complimentary rides! Tokyo isn’t a cheap city. The taxi rides cost an arm and a leg and kidneys! The rides from hotel– a town car? Probably cost a small baby! Probably. But they offered it because we had reservations.
The next day– it snowed! Apparently the first time ever! They offered to pick us up and dropped us off in their town cars any time of the week. We just had to call from the station and the street. (A total nightmare if you get out from the wrong street from Shinjuku station. That place is hugeeee!)
We were also provided with restaurants maps, reservations and the whole nine yard. Did I mention how nobody speaks English here? Everything was lost in translation. But everyone was so nice!
****New York Bar —-Billy Murray!!! Try it even if you don’t stay at this hotel! it was on 53^rd or 55^th floor. It’s been featured in few great movies! Anthony Bourdain’s shows! It’s a must!
We had our concierge made the reservation for us and waltz up from our room to here. Again, the view is breathtaking! It is much smaller than it appears. Pretty redhead singer singing all the jazzy songs. Quite fancy, snazzy yet not snooty. It was packed.
Oh and An earthquake! YES! A flipping EARTHQUAKE– while on the 55^th floor glass bar!!! AND guess what? The building was swaying left and right. Manager came over and told us it was very safe! Phew! Talk about an experience.
The morning I was supposed to leave– I went to Tsuji fish market. Got lost coming back and nearly missed my shuttle. Thanks to Park Hyatt– a handsome employee came, helped me packed and got me on the shuttle! I will never forget it! Overall, this was the single best hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Single best due to the service, the people and the efficiency and the scale that it runs on. The best people ever– bar none! I love you Park Hyatt! I love you.
