Spring has Arrived at Hotel Chinzanso Tokyo
Hotel Chinzanso Tokyo, located in Bunkyo, Tokyo, is set to welcome visitors with its vibrant "Spring Lunch and Dinner Buffet," beginning on February 11, 2026. Timed perfectly to coincide with the stunning cherry and camellia blossoms in the garden, this buffet offers a delightful experience amidst the beauty of spring.
A Garden in Full Bloom
The hotel's garden is one of a kind, showcasing around 20 different types and 100 cherry trees, including early-blooming Kawazu cherry blossoms that will start to bloom in early February, and will continue to flourish until mid-April with varieties like Kanhi, Yamazakura, and Somei Yoshino. Visitors are invited to enjoy various seasonal views throughout the day, highlighted by the unique "Tokyo Sea of Clouds" performance that transforms the surroundings into a picturesque paradise with white mist, both in the daytime and at night. The backdrop of blooming cherry blossoms merges seamlessly with the dazzling display of lights for the "Night Cherry Blossom Cloud Sea," creating an ethereal evening atmosphere. Additionally, visitors can witness the magnificent camellias, with approximately 100 kinds blooming in the resort's unique garden during the months of January to March.
A Culinary Feast of Spring
The buffet features an array of dishes that celebrate the flavors of spring, with seasonal ingredients like sakura shrimp, spring vegetables, and fresh seafood.
At lunchtime, guests can raise a glass of rosé sparkling wine, indulging in a seafood-chirashi sushi generously topped with fresh catch, a succulent beef steak served with a choice of two sauces, and authentic Mapo tofu. Colorful dishes such as sakura tofu, Uji matcha soba noodles, and a delightful ham and mango rose aroma add a decorative touch to the meal. Diners can relish a leisurely two-hour lunch while gazing out at the garden through large windows.
During dinner, culinary delights take on an extravagant twist, including slow-roasted beef prepared by chef and tempura fried shrimp and spring vegetables, freshly made in front of the guests. A special dish offered exclusively at the dinner buffet is the "Botan Ebi Nigiri Sushi and Shirama Ebi Nori Makimono," which showcases the essence of this seasonal bounty.
For those with a sweet tooth, a dessert corner will present gentle-flavored chiffon cake steeped in camellia tea paired with sakura, along with a variety of other sumptuous treats such as Uji matcha tiramisu and handcrafted custard pudding made with quality eggs. The dinner buffet will also feature exclusive delights, including waffle fruit sandwiches and warm cherry jubilee, as well as freshly finished cream puffs crafted at the live kitchen—perfect for concluding a magical dining experience.
An Enchanted Spring Escape
Guests are invited to stroll through the garden adorned with flowering camellias and cherry blossoms during the day, and return to marvel at the magical "Night Cherry Blossom Cloud Sea" illuminated at night. This enchanting spring experience promises to create vivid memories not to be forgotten.
