Conrad Tokyo

- Ravi Lalwani

BACKGROUND This luxury property by Hilton Hotels & Resorts is often termed as one of the best city hotels in Tokyo.

WHAT’S IT LIKE The décor of the hotel gives a sense of opulence wrapped in the tradition and culture of Japan. Subtle tones and elegant interiors reflect the hotel’s vibe of being a modern business property.

WHERE IS IT Situated in Shiodome district, this Hilton hotel overlooks the stunning Tokyo Bay and Hamarikyu Gardens. The hotel is an 80-minute drive from Narita. Limousine bus service is available from the hotel to Narita Internatio­nal Airport and Haneda Airport.

ROOM FACILITIES Conrad Tokyo features 290 luxurious guest rooms and suites. I stayed in King Room Bay View — spread across 48 sq m. of space, this guest room has contempora­ry Japanese décor with sumi-e style cherry blossom paintings and traditiona­l lantern-style lamps. The room is packed with modern amenities that suit the needs of a business traveller like me. In addition to this, the panoramic views of the bay and the garden add to the overall calming vibe of the room.

Restaurant­s and Bars: The F&B offering include the all-day dining restaurant Cerise, Collage for an elegant European culinary experience, China Blue serving the best of Cantonese dishes and Kazahana for Japanese delights. Enjoy a post-work drink at TwentyEigh­t, Conrad Tokyo’s stylish bar and restaurant set up on the lobby floor. A variety of cocktails, beers, spirits and whiskies are available complement­ed by scones, sandwiches and desserts. Located on the 37th floor, the Executive lounge takes its inspiratio­n from traditiona­l Japanese residences, and is ideal for guests looking to seek an exclusive space.

MEETINGS FACILITIES The event spaces at Conrad Tokyo are widely preferred for organising MICE events in Japan. The meeting spaces include two ballrooms, three banquet rooms and three meeting rooms, accommodat­ing up to 480 guests. To top it all, exclusive wedding services and customised food menu are also available at the hotel.

LEISURE FACILITIES Relax and unwind at Mizuki Spa — indulge in Japanese Aroma Relux or take a session of an anti-cellulite treatment. Head to the fitness centre for your daily work-out regime or take a plunge in the 25-metre pool before going for a sauna and steam service.

VERDICT A world-class business hotel equipped with excellent amenities and elegant ambience.
