As the name suggests, HOTEL NIWA TOKYO is a beautiful hotel with a garden (niwa in Japanese). I visited the hotel’s restaurant for a healthy lunch while enjoying the view of their green yard. And let me tell you: I had a relaxing and delightful time!
HOTEL NIWA TOKYO is about 3 minutes from the East Exit of JR Suidobashi Station. With a lot of lush greenery in front of the hotel, the hotel has a very relaxed and calm vibe.
A small jungle
The garden of HOTEL NIWA TOKYO has naturally shaped rocks and gently flowing streams mixed with human-made tubular and square stones which created an interesting contrast.
Two restaurants with a garden view
The hotel has two restaurants on both sides of the garden facing each other: authentic Japanese kaiseki cuisine “YUKURI” and casual French “LIEU”. As for me, I had the healthy lunch set at “LIEU”. The set consists of a main dish – you may choose one out of three options –, a fresh, colorful salad, soup with bread, and a coffee or tea.
When pre-ordering and making your reservation online, you can actually order a limited lunch dessert. This season’s limited dessert is “peach parfait”! the parfait was surprisingly big and tasted just wonderful! If you have a sweet tooth, don’t miss this sweet treat!
Thanks to the green garden and the healthy lunch, I had a splendid time. What a surprise to find this charming oasis in a hotel in Tokyo!
What else?
In addition to the lunch menu, HOTEL NIWA TOKYO offers other meal sets, too.
* To prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus, the hotel currently changed its breakfast from a buffet-style to a breakfast set menu (with free refills and second helpings!).
Don’t forget to check out their very affordable Happy Hour Set – between 17:00 and 19:00!
