The New Otani had been going downhill for years.</p> Sat, 05 Jan 2008 21:10:57 -0800 tdk comment 581 at http://www.discovernikkei.org/forum http://www.discovernikkei.org/forum/en/node/2015 <p>The New Otani Hotel &amp; Garden in Little Tokyo is no more. The change in ownership became effective November 30, 2007. It is now officially the Kyoto Grand Hotel &amp; Gardens (although it's kind of funny that it's the Kyoto in Little Tokyo). About $8 million worth of improvements have been made in the last 18 months with more planned to make it more upscale.</p> <p>The hotel has a new website: <a href="http://www.kyotograndhotel.com/" target="_blank">www.kyotograndhotel.com</a></p> http://www.discovernikkei.org/forum/en/node/2015#comment Nihonmachi / Japantowns Mon, 03 Dec 2007 11:15:34 -0800 vkm 2015 at http://www.discovernikkei.org/forum
