Only one day has gone by, and already I'm wishing I could stay at the Cerulean Tower Tokyu Hotel for the rest of my life. This hotel is only five years old, and boasts a Noh theatre and jazz club as well as the Iron Chef's Szechuan restaurant.
Our room's deep Japanese-style bath is super-luxurious, and the beds are so comfortable that even the most jet-lagged traveler will soon fall asleep. Both Japanese-style buckwheat pillows and Western-style soft pillows are provided. (Can I have one sent home, I wonder.)
My companion and I just went down to the Caramelo brunch buffet and were amazed by the variety! Just the fruit selection alone is amazing - there are prunes, Chinese matrimony fruits, mikan tangerines, and baby bananas, all served with your choice of yogurt, muesli or assorted fruit sauces. There are pastries with kiwi marmalade, cold cuts, bacon and sausage, fried, scrambled, hard-boiled and frittata eggs, and finally, there is a woman at a new-fangled juicer loaded with 20 oranges! (The fresh-squeezed is great, if 1300 yen.)
More to come...
Cerulean Tower Tokyu Hotel, 26-1 Sakuragaoka-Cho, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo 150-8512, +81 (03) 3476-3000.
