The Hotel Okura, one of the most prestigious hotels in Tokyo and located right next to the U.S. Embassy, will reopen in September 2019 after a ¥110 billion renovation.
The refurbishment includes the full restoration of the much-beloved main lobby, which sports an interior that combines Japanese traditions and Western modernism.
Hotel Okura Co. announced Monday that it will relaunch its flagship hotel, which boasts 508 luxury rooms housed in two new buildings in the Toranomon district of Tokyo's Minato Ward.
