Hotel New Otani Tokyo has scheduled the opening of its Garden Pool for the 2026 season on June 1, offering an early start to the summer for travelers in the capital. Located within the hotel’s expansive and historic Japanese garden, the facility provides a resort atmosphere that serves as a quiet escape from the rising urban temperatures. During the initial “Early Summer” period, which runs through July 7, visitors can utilize the main pool area and a distinctive 3-meter deep diving pool.
An Urban Oasis in a Historic Japanese Garden
The pool is designed to offer a tranquil environment in the heart of the city. The surrounding greenery and traditional garden setting provide a backdrop for a variety of guest experiences, from active morning swims to quiet afternoons by the water. The inclusion of the 3-meter diving pool distinguishes the facility from standard hotel pools, providing a unique feature for guests seeking a more active aquatic experience.
Exclusive Benefits for Hotel Guests
For international travelers staying at the property, the Garden Pool offers a significant value-add with complimentary and unlimited access throughout the duration of their stay. This allows for flexible use of the facilities as the sun sets over the city. While the luxury seating areas and full poolside dining are reserved for the peak season, beverage service remains available to guests during this early opening phase.
Seasonal Schedule and Night Pool Preview
The “Early Summer” session operates daily from 11:00 to 19:00. Following this initial period, the hotel will transition to its full summer schedule from July 10 to September 6, 2026. This later phase will feature extended operating hours and the return of the popular “Night Pool” experience, further establishing the Garden Pool as a premier summer social destination in Tokyo.
