Hotel New Otani Tokyo Review

Opened in 1964 just prior to the Olympics and used as a setting for the 1967 James Bond film You Only Live Twice, the New Otani is a bustling complex in the center of Tokyo. The traffic in the restaurants and shopping arcades beneath the sixth-floor lobby gives the impression of rush hour at a busy railway station. The hotel's main redeeming feature is its spectacular 10-acre Japanese garden, complete with a pond and a red-lacquer bridge. The rooms in the main building are in pleasant pastels, but they lack the outstanding views of those in the Tower, many of which overlook the garden's ponds and waterfalls. Among the many restaurants and bars is La Tour d'Argent (the only branch outside of France), Japan's first Trader Vic's, and The Bar, housed within a revolving lounge on the 40th floor that offers supreme city views.
