Restaurants in the hotel
I had dinner and breakfast at the “All Day Dining Grand Ale” on the 2nd floor.
The spacious restaurant was modern with a calm atmosphere. Sunlight shown in from the large windows during the day. There are over 240 seats.
Since it was a buffet restaurant, the dishes were lined up on the buffet table, but when I stayed at the hotel, salads and desserts were prepared separately to prevent coronavirus infection.
Dishes
You can order sirloin steak and a bowl of karate rice topped with seafood at the counter.

Summary
The “Villa Fontaine Grand Tokyo Ariake Hotel” was a new, clean and cozy hotel. The facilities are new and easy to use, and I was able to spend a relaxing and comfortable time in a calm and modern space. The spa at the hotel was very clean and was a spacious and fulfilling facility. When staying, I definitely recommend going to the spa. There are also restaurants and the Shopping City” adjunct to the hotel which was very convenient. The “Big Sight” is within walking distance and a theater will open at the “Ariake Garden,” so I think it will be very convenient when an event is held there. I would love to stay at this hotel once more.
