The Buzz in Tokyo: Shangri-La To Open First Hotel in Japan

Come March 1, 2009, Tokyo will see a brand new Shangri-La in a prime city location, set to dazzle with dramatic views, the CHI spa, and signature Shangri-La service. Located in the Marunouchi district, beside the Tokyo Station (that's the only station, folks, with railway connections to all points in Japan), the Shangri-La Hotel, Tokyo will be housed in the top 11 floors of the 37-storey Marunouchi Trust Tower Main Building. In addition to the CHI spa, discerning travelers will enjoy spacious guest rooms (the Presidential Suite occupies the entire top floor), excellent meeting and banquet space, and exquisite dining experiences, including a glass-ceiling restaurant. Upon their arrival by dedicated ground elevators at the 28th floor lobby, guests will be wowed by sweeping views of the Marunouchi area, as well as Tokyo Bay to the East, through the eight-meter high, floor-to-ceiling windows.
