Talking about luxury hotels, Mitsubishi Estate is building Tokyo Torch Tower (63 floor building) in the north part of the east side (Yaesu side) of Tokyo station, and the top portion of the building will be Dorchester Collection, which plans to open in 2028.

As a public service, please note that if your stomach is still grumbling after your Bvlgari breakfast experience, the Hotel Metropolitan Tokyo Marunouchi is only a couple of minutes away, just at the North End of Tokyo station. Head up to the TENQOO Restaurant and enjoy the city scape from a slightly different angle and stuff your face at the unlimited buffet for just under 3,000 yen. (Not limited to hotel guests and open from

Haha, two back-to-back breakfasts for us big eaters. Actually, that's exactly what I did when I first arrived in Japan, except it was lunch. I ate a Teishoku lunch at one restaurant but was still hungry (my American stomach had not yet acclimated to the smaller portions in Japan). I was too embarrassed to order a second lunch, so I walked across the street to a second restaurant and ordered another Teishoku lunch. Didn't feel stuffed at all after that. Today, with a shrunken stomach, one Teishoku lunch is plenty filling. The problem now is going back to the US and not being able to eat the gigantic standard portions.

I'm surprised there have not yet been any reviews of the Bulgari Hotel Tokyo on FlyerTalk Forums.
I've posted the review of my recent stay on the Luxury Hotels and Travel forum and it can be read at this link: Tokyo luxury hotels (newer consolidated thread)

Interesting review, thank you Nagasaki Joe . I find it odd that it's so empty, I wonder if all those other hotels currently charging an arm and a leg are seeing the same levels of occupancy? Doesn't sound like it. And it does look and feel a lot less Bvlgar than is implied by both the name and the expected poseur et arriviste clientele (yourself excluded, obviously).

We enjoyed dinner at the Bulgari lounge a few days ago.... wonderful views and service.... For two of us with two hamburgers, a bottle of wine and calamari appetizer, it was $250. Memory of a lifetime but next time will just nurse a drink or two and have ramen somewhere else!
