Enjoying Delicious Treats While Supporting SDGs at Royal Park Hotel

Royal Park Hotel, located in the heart of Tokyo in Nihonbashi, is inviting guests to join in its celebrations for the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) during the "SDGs Week 2026" from September 19 to 27. This initiative aims to promote and contribute to the achievement of SDGs alongside guests and the community.

As part of this special week, the hotel is excited to announce the launch of the "La Terre Banane," a scrumptious treat made with Dole's "Mottainai Bananas.” This unique dessert will be available at the 1st-floor Sweets & Bakery shop, 'Ikoi,' from September 19 to November 30, 2026.

Introducing La Terre Banane - A Delicious Way to Support SDGs

La Terre Banane is crafted using bananas deemed unsellable due to various factors during the distribution process. This initiative not only reduces waste but also showcases the hotel’s commitment to sustainable practices. The dessert offers a delightful contrast of textures with a crunchy outer layer dusted with granulated sugar and a moist interior that is lovingly wrapped around the sweet "Mottainai Bananas." The rich flavor of the bananas is complemented by a hint of bitter caramel, making it a perfect treat for afternoon tea. Guests are encouraged to indulge while contributing to the promotion of the SDGs.
