The Shangri-La Hotel, Tokyo (シャングリ・ラ ホテル 東京, Shanguri Ra Hoteru Tōkyō) is a luxury hotel[3] located in the Tokyo Station complex in Chiyoda, Tokyo, Japan.

History

[edit]

The Shangri-La Hotel, Tokyo, was opened on March 2, 2009.[2] It was the first property in Japan from Hong Kong–based Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts.[4] The hotel has 200 guestrooms and suites occupying 11 floors of the Mori-built Marunouchi Trust Tower Main.[1][5]

The hotel's central stairway

Most of the hotel's interior was designed by the Santa Monica–based Hirsch Bedner Associates,[6] whereas select rooms, restaurants, and the hotel's club lounge was designed by Andre Fu of the Hong Kong–based AFSO.[7]

Notable events

[edit]

In 2011, the hotel hosted a charity concert of the Leipzig String Quartet for the victims of the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami. It also hosted the Jacksons, Macy Gray and A.I. for an after-party live event for the Michael Jackson Tribute Show in December 2011.[8]
