The New Sanno is a US Navy-run hotel in downtown Tokyo. It has several restaurants, shops, and comfortable rooms. It is almost always impossible to get a room, but we managed to get a room for a weekend in both June and July.
We were thrilled to experience the "elegant dining" at Wellington's. It has a dress code and an age restriction - no children under 7. Daddy and I got dressed up, and Lily got a sitter that came to our room. Lily had a great time with Naomi-san, and I got to have an evening alone with my husband. The food was ridiculously delicious, beautifully presented, the ambiance so romantic, that it was well-worth the exorbatant price tag.
Lily, like Eloise, enjoys hotel living. But unlike Eloise, she got into far less mischief. She was well-behaved at every restaurant and polite to everyone. (She's even learned to say "domo" to the Japanese.)
Getting tickled by Daddy after coming back from his date with Mommy.
Wearing "binkit" on her head, a sock on her hand, and eating goldfish. Hotel living is great!
At a really expensive grocery store near the hotel. I like it because it isn't "orange juice." (Who really pays $8 for a half-gallon of oj?)
