Business travellers will certainly have to be patient before they can discover the new hotels proposed by the luxurious Dorchester Collection in Tokyo and Accor's premium brand, Fairmont, in Dubai. But these emblematic projects already stand out for their impact on the skyline of their respective host cities. The future Dorchester Tokyo in particular, which will incorporate the top floors of what will be no less than Japan's tallest building<\/strong>the Torch Tower.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

390 metres high, the skyscraper, which is due to start construction next year, is part of the redevelopment of the Tokiwabashi district, on the outskirts of Tokyo Station<\/strong> and at the crossroads of the Otemachi, Marunouchi, Yaesu and Nihonbashi districts. This project, supported by Mitsubishi Estate, will see the emergence of a new living space organised around a vast 7,000 m2 open-air area facing the Japanese capital's main railway station. This area is currently under development, and has already seen the completion in 2021 of another gigantic tower, the 212-metre Tokiwabashi Tower.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Torch Tower, which will have direct access to Otemachi metro station, is scheduled for completion in 2027, with the Dorchester opening the following year.
