The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Amazing Japanese Cuisine

During my stay, I had the pleasure of dining at the Japanese a la carte restaurant, and it was absolutely amazing! The flavors were authentic and the presentation was impressive. I truly wish I had tried it first because it set such a high standard for the rest of my meals. Reservation is required, but it was definitely worth it!
