The Park Hyatt Tokyo where Sofia Coppola’s movie ‘Lost in Translation’ was filmed, has reopened on 9 December, following a 19-month restoration, marking the most comprehensive renewal in the landmark’s 30-year history.
Park Hyatt Tokyo originally opened in July, 1994 as the first Park Hyatt branded hotel in Asia, becoming an immediate landmark in the capital’s skyline. Occupying the upper 14 floors (39–52) of Shinjuku Park Tower, the hotel offers panoramic views of Tokyo and Mt. Fuji.
Guestrooms & Suites
Park Hyatt Tokyo offers 171 refined rooms, including 29 suites, designed as luxurious residences. Each space features curated artwork, bespoke furnishings and breathtaking views of Tokyo, blending timeless luxury with residential comfort and modern conveniences.
Among the highlights is the new Park Suite (85 sqm), featuring generous living and dining spaces, walk-in closets, and sweeping views of Harajuku, Shibuya, Meiji Shrine, and Yoyogi Park. Deluxe Rooms (55 sqm.) on floors 42–51 offer king or double beds, deep soaking tubs, and daybeds with views of the city or Mt. Fuji. Studio Jouin Manku reinterpreted the Diplomat, Governor’s, and Presidential Suites, while the beloved Tokyo Suite was restored to its original design.
Girandole by Alain Ducasse
Debuting as part of the hotel’s transformation, Girandole by Alain Ducasse introduces a new expression of Parisian dining in Tokyo. In partnership with Ducasse Paris Group founded by the celebrated Michelin-starred chef and entrepreneur Alain Ducasse (https://www.ducasse-paris.com/en/alain-ducasse/) and helmed by Chef de Cuisine Kojiro Tsutsumi, the restaurant blends French culinary tradition with Japanese precision.
New York Grill & Bar
Perched on the 52nd floor, New York Grill & Bar continues to define Tokyo’s dining scene. Restored to its original black-and-chrome grandeur, the restaurant retains its bold energy and sweeping skyline views.
The menu showcases premium ingredients with bold simplicity—such as Kobe sirloin, Akagi Tomahawk steak, and the restaurant’s signature garlic mashed potatoes and Caesar salad. An expanded wine cellar and cocktail programme feature inventive new highlights such as the Jet City (a tribute to Seattle’s aeronautical heritage) and the returning favorite L.I.T., a subtly sweet, pink-hued sake-based cocktail inspired by the film ‘Lost in Translation’ that made the venue world-famous.
Kozue
Set high above the city, Kozue continues to present modern Japanese cuisine inspired by traditional kaiseki. The menu celebrates the depth of Japanese seasonality, featuring standout dishes such as the delicately dressed Snow Crab with apple-vinaigrette jelly and the rich, texture of Bluefin Tuna Toro sashimi. Signature offerings include Thinly Sliced Blowfish Sashimi, a hallmark of winter dining, as well as the refined Rosy Seabass, lightly seasoned and paired with subtly sweet pumpkin.
Delicatessen & Pastry Boutique
Located on the first floor of Shinjuku Park Tower, the Delicatessen will reopen in March 2026, offering casual dining, catered events, and seasonal takeaway menus designed to be enjoyed at one of the nearby parks.
The Pastry Boutique is conveniently located on the second-floor main hotel entrance and connected to the Delicatessen on the first floor. It offers specialty cakes, fresh bakery and pastry items, and chocolates.
Club On The Park
Spanning the 45th and 47th floors, Club On The Park offers fitness and wellness facilities high above the city. Highlights include a 65-by-26-foot swimming pool set beneath a soaring 47-foot glass atrium with panoramic Tokyo skyline views, state-of-the-art Technogym Artis equipment, and a schedule of daily fitness classes.
The spa features marble whirlpools, saunas, cold plunges, and seven private treatment rooms, including a couples’ suite. The Tokyo Massage combines Japanese and Western techniques such as stretching, alignment, acupressure and drainage, combined with local, seasonal oils.
