Shichiken-Jaya is located inside the Prince Sakura Tower Tokyo, which can be accessed from a beautiful Japanese Garden

Spacious corridor of Shichiken-Jaya. Although it was the end of the year, the restaurant wasn't crowded.

'Irodori Shiki Gozen (Colorful Four Seasons Dinner Set)', my dinner! It's 4,320 yen, but if you are a hotel guest, they will give you a 10% discount.

The price is quite reasonable for a restaurant inside a prestigious hotel

From the Japanese Garden, you enter the Prince Sakura Tower Tokyo and climb this winding staircase to the third floor where Shichiken-Jaya is located.

When I stayed in Grand Prince Hotel New Takanawa at the end of 2014, I dined at the Japanese restaurant, Shichiken-Jaya, located inside the Prince Sakura Tower Tokyo, another Prince Hotel standing just across the Japanese Garden between the three Prince hotels. The restaurant has a great view of the garden from inside, and the price was surprisingly reasonable for a hotel restaurant. Although it was the year-end party season, the restaurant wasn't crowded at all, probably because people just expect a hotel restaurant to be too expensive. Not at all! The food tastes good, the view is great, the atmosphere is cozy, without crowds, and the prices are reasonable. It could be a nice addition to your dining list in Tokyo!
