Imperial Hotel Tokyo

Created by Eiichi Shibusawa (later the first chairman of the Imperial Hotel) and Kihachiro Okura at the order of Foreign Minister Kaoru Inoue, the Imperial Hotel was established in Tokyo’s Hibiya area in 1890 to serve as Japan’s guest house for visitors from abroad. 
From then on, it came to serve as a gathering place offering a heartfelt welcome to guests of every era.

And moving into the future, the Imperial Hotel continues pursuing the “omotenashi” spirit of Japanese hospitality passed down over the years and working to ensure guest satisfaction.
