The Prince Akatoki Hotel Offers a Beautiful Cultural Perspective

The Prince Akatoki is a Japanese-inspired five-star hotel located in the heart of London. Being the first Akatoki of many, one of its major goals has been to spread to as many destination cities as possible. These are cities with high global foot traffic and huge international significance. In terms of cities that fit this criteria, London is a good start. It also makes complete sense: the more high-profile the cities, the more people are able to stay at the hotel, and the more business the hotel will do. It’s a move made by many hotels looking to grow. Not only that, but it also has a very unique experience to offer to most major cities around the world. The uniqueness in question is the Japanese cultural identity. The Prince Akatoki is dedicated to giving an exclusively Japanese point of view on luxury. This cultivated and thoroughly researched take on comfort is something that most people around the world might not be able to experience. Bringing a version of it to someone in a completely different area of the world is a brilliant stroke of interconnectedness. 

The word akatoki is taken from the Japanese word for sunrise. This was a very purposeful move on the hotel’s part: the Prince Akatoki wants this name to symbolize one of the general mission statements of the hotel, which is for the guest to have a new and refreshing experience. They try to genuinely incorporate this mission into everything they offer. This devotion to this mission can be seen in its incredible cuisine, its inspired yet cozy architecture, and its London location.

The Cuisine

One way Prince Akatoki lives out its central mission statement is through its cuisine. There are two main places for dining, TOKii and the Malt Lounge and Bar. The two dining places serve to display two different areas of the Japanese dining industry. At TOKii, there are many traditional Japanese dishes curated by their artisanal chefs. Mainstays such as miso soup, pork ramen, and various seafood-based dishes, including tuna rolls, have all made their way onto the menu. There are over eleven different kinds of sashimi and nigiri. The service to Japanese culture that not only lingers in ingredients, but also in presentation. The chefs make sure to curate the food in distinct shapes and styles when preparing each plate. They also offer Japanese tea, and have “Afternoon Tea” time you can schedule to go to at the restaurant. The Malt Lounge and Bar provides a similar experience. Here, there is a plethora of different Japanese wines, whiskies, and cocktails. Most of these are Japanese-inspired (rice and kumquat are some of the flavors drinks come in), but also infuse international ingredients into the recipes.

Cuisine is an important part of any culture. The various foods and drinks that are created in each community based on their likes and dislikes, their environment, and their intermingling of these recipes is almost tantamount to experiencing the culture itself. The Prince Akatoki Hotel clearly understands this, as evidenced by going above and beyond in their restaurant and bar. They recognize that Japanese food is crucial when considering bringing the country’s experience to other places across the world. People remember the food that they have when going to a particular hotel, and it always forms a part of their verbal review to friends and family. 

Architecture

Another way the Prince Akatoki Hotel expresses its central mission statement is through its architecture. If there is one word to describe the style of building and rooms, and suites, it would be minimalist. This is kept in mind when creating the design so as not to distract from the attractions and experiences of the hotel. Rooms and suites are also designed with this in mind, despite having luxuries such as hypoallergenic beds upon request (the traditional Junior Suite) and a chamomile tea set in the evenings (the amazingly furnished Superior Suite).

Architecture is the first thing people will notice about a hotel. It affects people’s view of a place before they even walk in. The owners of the Prince Akatoki Hotel care about the visual aesthetic both inside and outside the building. Its intended purpose is to bring out mindfulness in guests, and minimalism is a popular response to creating the level of mindfulness necessary for relaxing.

Location

This is a crucial element to the Prince Akatoki Hotel’s success. The hotel is located in the heart of London, which has plenty of amazing attractions. Iconic sites such as Big Ben, the Tower of London, the world-famous Natural History Museum, Hyde Park, Buckingham Palace, and the Marble Arch are readily available by driving or taking the metro. The Prince Akatoki Hotel not only touts a distinctly Japanese experience but also encourages guests to explore the culture surrounding their experience.

This is a thoughtful display of interconnection by the hotel. The Prince Akatoki owners know that one of the ultimate goals involves the introduction of two cultures. In this instance, it’s Japanese and British culture. Balancing the culture that a hotel provides with the surrounding culture (whatever that may be) helps a guest appreciate both experiences that much more. Naturally, these amazing landmarks are also a part of making the hotel appealing.

Click here to read The Hollywood Insider’s CEO Pritan Ambroase’s love letter to Cinema, TV and Media. An excerpt from the love letter: The Hollywood Insider’s CEO/editor-in-chief Pritan Ambroase affirms, “We have the space and time for all your stories, no matter who/what/where you are. Media/Cinema/TV have a responsibility to better the world and The Hollywood Insider will continue to do so. Talent, diversity and authenticity matter in Cinema/TV, media and storytelling. In fact, I reckon that we should announce “talent-diversity-authenticity-storytelling-Cinema-Oscars-Academy-Awards” as synonyms of each other. We show respect to talent and stories regardless of their skin color, race, gender, sexuality, religion, nationality, etc., thus allowing authenticity into this system just by something as simple as accepting and showing respect to the human species’ factual diversity. We become greater just by respecting and appreciating talent in all its shapes, sizes, and forms. Award winners, which includes nominees, must be chosen on the greatness of their talent ALONE.

I am sure I am speaking for a multitude of Cinema lovers all over the world when I speak of the following sentiments that this medium of art has blessed me with. Cinema taught me about our world, at times in English and at times through the beautiful one-inch bar of subtitles. I learned from the stories in the global movies that we are all alike across all borders. Remember that one of the best symbols of many great civilizations and their prosperity has been the art they have left behind. This art can be in the form of paintings, sculptures, architecture, writings, inventions, etc. For our modern society, Cinema happens to be one of them. Cinema is more than just a form of entertainment, it is an integral part of society. I love the world uniting, be it for Cinema, TV, media, art, fashion, sport, etc. Please keep this going full speed.”
