Hyatt Hotels has announced the reopening of Park Hyatt Tokyo following a 19-month restoration, marking the most comprehensive renewal in the landmark’s 30-year history.
Park Hyatt Tokyo 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 remains one of Tokyo’s most recognized symbols of modern sophistication. Designed by the late Pritzker Prize laureate Kenzo Tange, the three-tower complex—capped by its distinctive triangular peaks—pioneered the city’s mixed-use high-rise movement. Inside, interior designer John Morford envisioned a refined private residence atop Tange’s architectural masterpiece, combining steel, glass, and wood to create a calm, understated aesthetic.
Over the past several years, the Park Hyatt Tokyo team and the Paris-based design studio Jouin Manku have approached Park Hyatt Tokyo’s restoration with sensitivity and boldness. Four years in planning and 19 months in execution, the restoration preserves and enhances the sense of journey that has always defined a stay at Park Hyatt Tokyo—the unfolding of calm spaces, the interplay of light and shadow, the quiet reveal of the skyline from unexpected vantage points. Softer forms, warmer materials, refined details, and expanded sightlines celebrate the city’s luminous panorama while unlocking a renewed sense of ease.

Guestrooms & Suites
Park Hyatt Tokyo’s 171 redesigned rooms embrace fluid layouts, tactile materials, and seamless wet-room bathrooms that encourage moments of inward retreat. The redesigned guestrooms and suites spotlight contemporary Japanese art. Signature elements—magnolia leaf decoration and Isamu Noguchi’s iconic washi lamps—remain integral to the hotel’s narrative of art, light, and texture. Highlights include the new 915-square-foot Park Suite, featuring generous living and dining spaces, walk-in closets, and sweeping views of Harajuku, Shibuya, Meiji Shrine, and Yoyogi Park; and the 592-square-foot Deluxe Rooms on floors 42–51 offering king or double beds, deep soaking tubs, as well as daybeds with views of the city or Mt. Fuji. Studio Jouin Manku also reinterpreted the Diplomat, Governor’s, and Presidential Suites, while the beloved Tokyo Suite was restored to its original design.

F&B Outlets
- Girandole by Alain Ducasse: Debuting as part of the hotel’s transformation, Girandole by Alain Ducasse blends French culinary tradition with Japanese precision. A 5.5-foot Italian girandole pedestal at the entrance showcases rotating floral art by UI Florist Workshop, the creative force behind the hotel’s iconic arrangements throughout its history. At the heart of the space, a black walnut and red Italian marble culinary console shifts from gourmet breakfast to a lively cocktail hub by night. For intimate gatherings, the Ex Libris Room offers a semi-private retreat lined with artist-designed bookplates from around the world.
- The Peak Lounge & Bar: Crowning the first of Tange’s three towers beneath a soaring glass atrium and tranquil bamboo grove, this venue balances energy and calm. Its new cocktail concept celebrates Japan’s regional diversity through a narrative-driven approach that connects each drink to a specific prefecture and its unique ingredients. The menu, titled “Six Prefectures, One Skyline,” weaves together stories of heritage, craftsmanship, and terroir—from Hokkaido’s artisanal gin and Tochigi’s famed strawberries to Okinawa’s sun-soaked awamori. Even the zero-proof offerings carry this philosophy forward, offering layered flavors and thoughtful design for a complete, inclusive drinking experience.
- New York Grill & Bar: Restored to its original black-and-chrome grandeur, the restaurant on the 52nd floor retains its bold energy and sweeping skyline views. Under Chef de Cuisine Ben Wheeler, the menu showcases premium ingredients with bold simplicity. An expanded wine cellar and cocktail program feature 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 along with panoramic views of Mt. Fuji. 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.
- Delicatessen & Pastry Boutique: Located on the first floor of Shinjuku Park Tower, the Delicatessen welcomes guests with comforting fare and a relaxed atmosphere framed by cascading water features and whimsical sculptures by Mieko Yuki. The venue 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 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, including the signature Tonka bean cheesecake, mama chocolate cake, seasonal shortcake, and croissant by Executive Pastry Chef, Julien Perrinet.
