Rising high above the streets of downtown Tokyo, The Capitol Hotel Tokyu combines traditional architecture and contemporary design to a dazzling effect. In the two-story lobby, slender wooden beams echo temple and shrine interiors, while a large-scale Ikebana flower arrangement hints at the original art collection within. Guestrooms are designed to customize your space with movable shoji panels; the Carju Rajah Tiado spa and huge indoor pool invite you to unwind; and five bars and restaurants entice you with a tour of the very best modern Asian cuisine.

  • Try a Vital Spa — a salt bath combined with a low-temperature mist sauna — or get groomed for dinner in the gentlemen's barber room
  • All 251 guestrooms and suites feature sliding shoji screens
  • Discover the delicacy and precision of kaiseki cuisine at Suiren, led by master chef Minoru Tsuge
  • Admire contemporary Japanese art throughout the property, including calligraphy and Ikebana flower arrangements
  • Work out in a 15th-floor gym overlooking the city or relax in the Jacuzzi or 65 ft / 20 m indoor pool

The beams in The Capitol Hotel Tokyu's lobby are the work of award-winning architect Kengo Kuma, a fitting introduction to a hotel that is filled with art. There is work here from some of 20th-century Japan's great masters, including subtle suibokuga by Toko Shinoda and sculpture by Sofu Teshigahara.

最低のソムリエ

Tue Apr 01 2025 23:04:53 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time) by 匿名 希

普段は口コミの投稿はしませんが、今回はあまりに残念な思いをしましたので投稿いたします。夫婦の記念日で食事をと思い伺いましたが、料理は確かに美味しく感動を覚えるレベルでした。しかしその素敵な時間を潰すような態度だったソムリエの松◯という男性には心底失望しました。こちらが料理に合うワインを質問したところ、鼻で笑われ、無知な私たちを見下すような冷ややかな感じ…思わず旦那と目を合わせてしまいました。その後も鼻につくような感じがすごく、一気に空気を壊されました。 女性を軽視している感じがすごく伝わり非常に不愉快でした。 そんなにソムリエの方は偉いのでしょうか?ここのシェフや料理長の方はとても腰が低くいい人たちばかりなので、このような人がキャピトルさんで働いているということがびっくりです。 彼がいる限りわたしたちはもう訪れることはないと思います。それほどあの男には嫌悪感を覚えました。

東急・旗艦ホテルのクラブラウンジは新人研修職場

Sat Mar 15 2025 08:08:01 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time) by Yamanouenookura

久しぶりに泊まったら、イロイロ変革されていました。宿泊時にこちらのサイトの書込みを推奨されていたので、感想を書いています。 クラブフロアのスタッフは未経験新人様が多く、飲食部門のベテランスタッフ層と違いが大きかったです。レストランの接遇とは格段の差があるので、ここのラウンジ客は、実質、格下扱いに感じました。なぜならば、スタッフの構成要件がサービスの品質を左右するからです。 即ち、価格高騰化で一見さんの多いラウンジ客は、素人対応で充分だろうと判断するからこそ、このような人員配置の差別化を図ると推測され、それ以外の合理的理由は見当たりません。 この実態を、利用者としては、ホテル当局が「ニコニコしていれば、どうせ分からないだろう」と言われているように感じました。 家族は「新人研修機関だね」とつぶやいていました。これは、かつてのレジェンドが築き上げた信頼を崩壊させ、商魂が透けてみえた瞬間です。というのも、昔からの常連が多い和食「水簾」ならば、こういう極端な配置はおそらく無いと推測されるからです。 ライブラリーからSaRyohにリニューアルさせたのは、改装はもとより人員配置も鑑みて、前総支配人様や料飲責任者W様が抜本的に見直されたと、もれ承ったことがあります。その際、スタッフレベルも底上げしたと伝わっております。実際、異次元の進化を遂げられていました。 具体的には、元責任者クラスで最上級のサービスを提案する凄腕レジェンドが複数人おいでになり、スタッフ層もそれなりの経験者でした。 現に、横浜ベイホテル東急さんのクラブフロアでは、経験値の高いスタッフ様を揃えワンランク上のホテルサービスを展開されています。 従ってラウンジ滞在も快適です。 現体制では、いくら現場マネージャー様が辣腕でも、マネジメントには限界があるのでしょう。新人様も精いっぱいですが、状況を察するに至らず接客をされるので、リラックスを期待してホテルに来ているはずが「心和らぐ優雅で上質な時間」とは乖離されてしまうのです。ラグジュアリーホテルはプロの技や接客が醍醐味ですが、がっかりしました。 ラウンジにおける接遇ランクを幹部がシフトチェンジしたのでしょう。前総支配人様が改善されたことを、いとも簡単に改悪されるとは・・・。海外富裕層がお金を落としさえすれば、矜持など不要となったようです。これが、キャピトル流ホテル「業」の原理なのでしょう。 尚「~スタッフ全員でサービス向上を図り、ご信頼いただけるホテルを目指して~」等のレスは、恐縮ですが遠慮申し上げます。そもそも現場努力で改善を図れるレベルではないようにお見受けしました。東急ホテルズ頂点のポジショニングである以上、コメントは公益に資するものと考えております。

Great location, great service

Fri Mar 14 2025 23:48:04 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time) by 177ohadb

The service in the 5 star hotel is of some other level. It is centrally located, has its own subway station and there are many stores and restaurants in its vicinity. The room is comfy and cozy, view is breathtaking and taking a shower is like standing under a waterfall.

Zen Heaven

Thu Feb 13 2025 15:42:44 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time) by enofile1

After our flight was delayed five hours in Minneapolis, we arrived in Tokyo anxious to reach our hotel. Unfortunately, the digital entry at Haneda was disorganized, and our taxi didn't pull up to the Capitol Hotel until 20 hours after our departure from Milwaukee. As I crawled out of the back seat, a cadre of smiling attendants greeted me, ready to escort us to registration. Our luggage was whisked away as the taxi driver bowed in my direction. Walking into the tranquil expansive lobby, my stress disappeared as I took in the gorgeous water feature, sumptuous fabrics, and sultry lighting. From airport hell, I was transported to zen heaven. The attendant at Registration was helpful and kind, updating us to a corner, deluxe king room. Two lovely women continued to escort us to our room on the 21st floor, advising me the luggage will arrive soon. One of the charming ladies asked for my room key and opened the door to a large and beautiful room, with fantastic night views of the Tokyo skyline and the Hie shrine. She explained how to raise and lower the shades with the remote, how to maintain the perfect temperature, how to work the TV, where the robes and pajamas were. I bowed continuously, mispronouncing harigato (thank you) a dozen times. My spouse and I plopped down on the enormous bed with a sigh of relief. With a huge bathroom, fluffy towels, a view of the city from the shower/tub room, and a Toto toilet that not only cleanses and warms, but raises its lid greeting me every time I walked into the toilet room, the Capitol Hotel is the epitome of luxury. Three restaurants, a bar, and a sophisticated location help add some caché. Located at the basement level are convenient subway stations that can whisk you to other parts of the city without getting your hair wet. The Japanese Congress is next door to the Capitol Hotel, hence the name, and thus your safety is assured. While expensive as hell, I was able to procure a decent rate by shopping around and allowing my dates flexibility. The Capitol Hotel of Tokyo is one of the nicest hotels I have ever experienced.
