We had been so looking forward to staying in this iconic hotel. It has recently been refurbished the rooms are truly beautiful the bathrooms dreamy the private patios so appealing, So what was disappointing ? The hotel is part of the Dorchester group but if you expect the same high culinary standards as in their hotels in London or Milan you will be sadly disappointed. The management being aware of our underwhelming dinner experience did all they could to make good, producing a special tasting menu providing free flow of champagnes and wonderful wines but the food was sadly not to standard. I think it is actually an American Californian thing, if you are European and live in Tokyo you are not going to be satisfied with so called gourmet food in the US. Additionally, service standards are very different here, it may be too casual for certain clients.
