Unfortunately they don’t give Oscars for the Best Supporting Hotel. If they did, the Park Hyatt in Tokyo would certainly have won one for it’s role in Lost in Translation. Some have gone as far as to suggest the hotel actually had a lead role (although Bill Murray might beg to differ).

The Park Hyatt has been described as the ultimate Tokyo Hotel experience. It’s one of the city’s best known (and most expensive) hotels. Centrally located, the Hyatt is a 15 minute walk from Shinjuku station. If you’ve seen the movie, you already know about the New York Bar on the hotel’s top floor. The New York Grill offers exceptional dining and service as well. The hotel’s pool and spa are also first rate.

If you’re looking for a “deal” the Park Hyatt offers a five night “Lost In Translation” package for ¥380,000 (around $3,300). If the price seems a little steep, consider a single night’s stay in a west facing room with a view of Mt. Fuji.

While pricey, the Park Hyatt consistently receives high marks from it’s guests and is generally considered to be one of the best hotels in the city. You can learn more about the Park Hyatt Tokyo and book a room online at Planet Tokyo.
