Furthermore, the first floor, which has undergone a major layout change, will feature an open facade and an all-day dining restaurant "RISTASIX," as the new "face of the hotel." Based on the concept of a "TOKYO retreat RESTAURANT," RISTASIX will not only offer basic hotel-style Western cuisine. It will also incorporate a variety of ingredients and cooking methods from other Asian countries, to present new discoveries and flavors from Ginza, Tokyo, one of the world's leading culinary destinations.

The "Korin" bar on the first basement level has undergone a design overhaul while maintaining its authentic setting. It has evolved into a "hotel bar for a new era," featuring a wide selection of domestically produced "Western-style sake" from select Japanese brewers. This anticipates an exciting experience for guests from both Japan and abroad.

In addition, a new shopping area will be opened. Here, guests and visitors will find restaurants and other stores conveying Japanese quality, as well as a satellite office that can be used by guests and business workers. The latter will expand the hotel's function for people passing through the Ginza district, making it a lively hotel open to the city.
