Savor the Essence of Summer with Melon Desserts at Tokyo Station Hotel

Tokyo Station Hotel, located in the heart of Marunouchi, offers a unique escape for those seeking seasonal delights. This summer, from August 1 to September 30, 2026, the hotel presents its exclusive Melon Dessert Collection, featuring a range of enchanting melon-infused sweets.

A Refreshing Afternoon Tea Experience

Visitors to the hotel's elegant lobby lounge can indulge in a delightful Afternoon Tea experience centered around the luscious flavors of ripe melons. The carefully crafted menu includes five dazzling sweet treats, showcasing the chef’s creativity and passion for seasonal ingredients. A standout recommendation is the visually stunning Mini Melon Parfait, where succulent melon flesh layers beautifully with lemon and mint jelly, along with whipped cream, offering a refreshing finish.

The three-tiered stand, adorned with the hotel logo, features an impressive selection of sweets. Among them is the Melon and White Chocolate Mousse, which boasts a burst of melon fragrance, and the silky Melon Panna Cotta, designed to melt in your mouth. The ever-popular Melon Shortcake adds a light and airy touch to the extravagant arrangement. To complement these delicacies, two types of scones—plain and Earl Grey—are served with homemade lemon jam and clotted cream, enhancing the overall experience without overpowering the natural sweetness of the melon.

Savory Delights

Alongside the sweet offerings, guests can enjoy savory bites that stand out, including the classic pairing of Melon and Prosciutto, light and fluffy Egg Danish Sandwich, and the house-made Herb Pâté with Tokyo vegetables. To refresh the palate, a selection of seasonal fruits is also served, balancing the sweetness with a delightful contrast that elevates the entire tea experience.

Melon Assortment

For those looking to further explore the charm of melon, the Melon Assortment presents three exquisite desserts elegantly arranged on one plate. The Melon Tart is a work of art, featuring rich, Tahitian vanilla custard lavishly topped with perfectly rounded slices of fresh melon. The Melon Mousse encapsulates refreshing flavors by enveloping yogurt mousse and muscat jelly, while the Melon Glass Dessert combines champagne jelly, melon sorbet, and Shine Muscat for a cool summer treat that is nothing short of refreshing. Pairing these desserts with a glass of champagne enhances their flavors, making for a luxurious indulgence.

Unique Summer Drink

Don’t miss the limited-edition Melon Squash, a refreshing drink that combines fresh melon puree, meticulously brewed stem gyokuro tea, and lime juice. This unique twist on a traditional beverage showcases a refined sweetness and crisp finish that perfectly complements the hot summer days.
