The hotel has 508 rooms and 5 restaurants serving a variety of Japanese cuisine, including “Yamazato”, which offers fine dining, and “Sazanka”, which serves teppanyaki, a type of cooking using a hot plate. There are also two bars, a tea ceremony room, 19 banquet rooms and the Okura Spa and Fitness Center.
A moment of relaxation
Located on the 27th floor of the Okura Prestige Tower, Okura Fitness & Spa has 7 treatment rooms that offer panoramic views of the Tokyo cityscape. 5 different facial and body classes based on the “Five Elements” philosophy are offered. This ancient Eastern philosophy is based on the five elements: wood, fire, earth, metal and water. Okura Fitness & Spa is also the first spa in Japan to offer the Annayake concept, which combines Japanese and Western influences and offers products derived from natural ingredients.
