The Hotel Okura is centrally located in the heart of Tokyo, close to Tokyo's government offices, the business districts, Tokyo Tower, the Imperial Palace and the famed Ginza shopping area. It's the favorite of visiting heads of state, business executives, as well as the celebrities and the distinguished artists. Conservative and traditional in decor, the Okura combines Western comfort with Japanese design in the use of shoji screens, ikebana flower displays and a beautifully sculptured garden.
