Rooms From heads of state to business leaders and international
celebrities, those who appreciate an atmosphere of sequestered
luxury choose the Okura. All 858 guest rooms have individual fax
machines, direct dial-out modem ports (ISDN, local ISP access,
and Internet email address available), voice mail, speakerphones,
easy international dialing, and satellite TV. Of course, there
is 24-hour room service. Suites Bird's-eye maple furniture and
marble bathroom surfaces are some of the highlights of the Okura's
suites, reflecting the impeccable taste of Sir David Hicks, designer
to the British Royal Family. With luxurious décor evoking
the grandeur of Victorian England, the 11 newly-renovated Garden
Wing guest rooms in the Main Building combine graceful interiors
with beautiful outdoor views of the hotel's Japanese garden. Garden
Wing guests are afforded a selection of special amenities and
services. |
Restaurants From Japanese teppanyaki at Sazanka to gourmet French
at La Belle Epoque and Cantonese at Toh-Ka-Lin, the Okura's distinctive
restaurants take a perfectionist approach to cuisine. Impeccable
service complements the epicurean flavors and elegant presentation.
Specializing in light Chinese cuisine, our newest restaurant is
Chinese Table Starlight, on the 11th floor of the Main Building
(previously the Starlight Lounge). Bars Adjacent to the main lobby
you'll find the bamboo-decorated Orchid Bar, honored with the
fictional patronage of Ian Fleming's James Bond. Or hide away
in the Bar Highlander, where you can choose from 200 varieties
of Scotch. For drinks before and after your French meal, La Belle
Epoque Bar is convenient. Room Service Our 24-hour room service
menu offers a wide variety of breakfast, lunch, tea, dinner, and
late-evening supper dishes. Wine and spirits are also available
for delivery to your room. Tea Ceremony Inside the Chosho-an Tea
Ceremony Room on the seventh floor of the Main Building, you enter
a world of simplicity and serenity -- accented by a delicate flower
arrangement, a trace of incense, and the trickle of water into
a small pool. A certified tea master in kimono will serve traditional
Japanese sweets and prepare bowls of ceremonial tea -- the frothy,
slightly bitter refreshment that is the ultimate taste of Japanese
culture -- following venerable, centuries-old custom. |
