Tokyo's Imperial was founded by Japanese aristocracy in 1890 as a venue to receive an increasing number of foreign dignitaries visiting Japan in the Meiji Period. It initiated many new services and facilities which have since become standard services for major Japanese hotels, such as all-inclusive Shinto and Christian wedding services, shopping arcades, and in-house laundry service, and introduced diverse Western cuisine to the Japanese public. It is the traditional favorite of dignitaries and celebrities from abroad visiting the Japanese capital.
