Shangri- La

About Shangri- La

A bastion of style and service surrounded by the glimmering streets of Tokyo.

Enjoying prime real estate on the top 11 floors of a glitzy Maunouchi skyscraper, the Shangri-La boasts rooftop views from every room, spa and restaurant. Throughout, the interiors are rich and grand with over 50 shimmering chandeliers - and the hotel's crowning glory, a three-storey creation made up of nearly half a million crystal beads. The rooms are exquisite and will whisk you a million miles away from the streets of Tokyo, and yet, some of the city’s most iconic sights are a short stroll away: shop until you drop in Marunouchi and enjoy the idyllic atmosphere of the vast Imperial Gardens, before returning for a jasmine and bergamot-scented soak in your bathtub.

Property details

The property

Elegance runs like a fine thread throughout Shangri-La. Starting in the restaurants, Piacere serves Italian cuisine prepared with seasonal Japanese ingredients beneath a trio of intricate chandeliers, whilst the more casual Nadaman serves a range of local dishes including sushi, teppanyaki and kaiseki-style meals. The Lobby Lounge offers a rather splendid setting for afternoon tea or aperitifs - give the Shangri-La Martini a try! - and at the Tibetan-inspired Chi Spa you’ll find an array of pampering treatments to enjoy. There is also a gym and heated pool on the 29th floor.

The rooms

There are a total of 200 rooms, each rising in height and levels of luxury and splashed with Shangri-La's signature scarlet hue. The Presidential Suite is the most luxe with views of the Imperial Gardens and Mount Fuji, but all enjoy a view of the city through expansive windows. Huge, King-size beds, pillow menus and 300 thread count linens ensure an exquisite night’s sleep and in the open-plan bathrooms, deep marble tubs, rainfall shower sand double vanities. The shutters can also be closed for added privacy.

Activities

With Tokyo Station just minutes away, Shangri-La has a location worth boasting about. Get to know the city as you explore its blaring, neon streets from Harajuku's imaginative fashion scene to iconic sights like the Tokyo Tower. Then, swap modern-day Tokyo for parks filled with cherry blossoms and bonsai trees, admire the Imperial Palace, and visit the numerous beautiful shrines dotted around the city. A bamboozlement of the senses, the Tsukiji Market is also well worth a visit, followed up by a lesson in sushi making.

Why we love it

A fantastic location in the centre of the city combined with well-established luxury – this is Tokyo as you need to experience it.
