Discover a Unique Midnight Experience at the Tokyo Station Hotel

The Tokyo Station Hotel is celebrating its 110th anniversary this year, standing proud as a symbol of architectural beauty and rich history at the iconic Tokyo Station. Located within the important cultural property of the Marunouchi Station Building, this hotel offers a series of unique events that allow guests to discover the elegance of the venue while immersing themselves in the fascinating history of railroads.

As part of this year-long celebration, the hotel is offering an exclusive opportunity for guests: a special midnight tour of the Tokyo Station. This unique experience is available only to those who choose to stay at the hotel, with limited participation to ensure an intimate setting. Two tour dates are scheduled for October 24 and November 24, 2025, with only ten spots available each night, so early reservations are encouraged.

What to Expect During the Midnight Tour

The tour begins at the southern dome of the station, where hotel staff will introduce guests to the stunning illuminated reliefs that adorn the structure. Guests will then witness the moment the Marunouchi ticket gates close for the evening, ushering them into the serene atmosphere of the station where they can explore the exterior of the building. Here, guests will hear stories about the remarkable stone monument featuring the engraved name of Tokyo Station.

Returning to the southern dome, hotel staff lead guests through exclusive access to areas usually off-limits, including a passage reserved for employees, taking them inside the station after hours. The tour includes a visit to the Tohoku Shinkansen platform, where guests might even capture a unique photo opportunity with the front car of the Shinkansen. Additionally, participants will marvel at the “Zero Kilometer Post,” which signifies the starting point of the Tohoku line, as well as enjoy presentations of the replica headmarks of the legendary Blue Train, which once traversed Japan.

The experience extends beyond the station's main attributes; guests will also get a chance to view the dynamic driving wheels of a steam locomotive and discover a stone drawing that adds to the rich tapestry of the station's history. Each exploration is a chance for guests to experience the grandeur of Tokyo Station as if it were entirely their own.

A Journey Through History at the Hotel

In addition to the midnight tour, guests can join a guided tour of the Tokyo Station Hotel itself, where staff will delve into the stories that breathe life into both the hotel and Tokyo's Marunouchi Station. By uncovering the episodes that have shaped the building throughout decades, participants will find themselves connecting with a legacy that has delivered countless unforgettable experiences.

This exclusive tour represents not merely a visit but a rare occasion to encounter a new aspect of Tokyo Station that most travelers overlook. Such encounters promise a memorable sense of wonder and discovery, making for an extraordinary stay that guests will cherish.
