It was already midnight when we got back to the hotel after watching the fireworks on our first night. After confirming with the front desk that they weren't serving food, we also inquired about nearby convenience stores. As we were preparing to leave, a female staff member at the front desk actually suggested we could order food delivery using Uber Eats. So, we went back to our room and placed an order. After doing so, we called the front desk again, and this time, a male staff member answered. We wanted to clarify if delivery drivers were allowed into the hotel, or if we needed to pick up the food from the lobby. To our surprise, the man curtly said, 'you don't eat anything in your room.' When we then asked if we could eat in the lobby instead, he responded, 'you must eat outside, can't eat anything in the hotel.' We immediately went online to various platforms to see if this was a common Japanese hotel rule we were unaware of. However, our research showed that absolutely no other hotel has such a requirement. What's more, a female staff member had *explicitly* told us we could order takeout in the first place! 🤷 Frankly, I can only interpret this incident as discrimination against Chinese guests.

The hotel rooms are spacious and clean, and the amenities are exceptionally well-thought-out. The bathroom offered a generous supply of toiletries, even including Kose Sekkisei travel-sized products, truly going the extra mile to maximize guest convenience. The buffet breakfast delivered a fine dining experience, with every dish meticulously crafted for its appearance, aroma, and taste. This will definitely be my top choice hotel for all my future visits to Tokyo.
