The Okura Frontier Hotel Tsukuba was born under the concepts of revitalizing and living closely in harmony with the surrounding region. The hotel represents a new style in the "City Hotel" genre of hotels. The hotel is located in the heart of Tsukuba, a city rich in its natural surroundings, while at the same time known as a high-teck university town with history. Promenades for leisurely strolling crisscross the city interspersed with a hundred parks, plazas, and green areas that display the natural beauty of the changing of the seasons. Inside both wihgs of the hotel, all of the rooms are designed to make the guest feel at home. In the main building, a variety of restaurants provide a wide selection of Japanese, Western, and Chinese cuisine. The Epochal wing of the hotel is adjacent to Epochal Tsukuba, Tsukuba's international convention center, which is the best suited for business use.
