[The Capitol Hotel Tokyu] Limited-Time Summer "Shaved Ice 2026" Arrives July 1st, Featuring Blissful Chilled Sweets to Soothe the Heat: Melting Strawberries, Seasonal Melons, and Persimmons from Shimane Prefecture

The Capitol Hotel Tokyu (Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; General Manager: Koji Shimura) will launch its limited-time summer "Shaved Ice 2026" at Lounge "ORIGAMI" and Chinese Restaurant "Seigou" starting Wednesday, July 1, 2026. Amidst the increasingly severe heatwaves in recent years, we have prepared a diverse lineup of uniquely flavored shaved ice offerings to deliver a refreshing moment with the exquisite taste only a hotel can provide.

This year, Lounge "ORIGAMI" introduces a new menu item: "Strawberry Milk Shaved Ice." This dish presents a classic, familiar flavor as a sophisticated and luxurious dessert. Furthermore, we will offer a variety of shaved ice options to enhance your summer enjoyment, including "The Melon Frappe," which generously uses half a whole musk melon, and traditional flavors like matcha and ogura shiratama.

Last year, the "Persimmon Shaved Ice" at Chinese Restaurant "Seigou" was met with great acclaim. This exquisite item features Shimane Prefecture's "Saijo Persimmon," known for its rich sweetness and deep flavor, luxuriously combined with fluffy snow ice. Using persimmon, a novel ingredient for shaved ice, it offers the gentle sweetness of Japanese fruit and a refreshingly melt-in-your-mouth texture. We have added the essence of Japanese fruits to your summer moment of cool enjoyment.

An adult summer to savor the coolness. Please enjoy a unique dish from The Capitol Hotel Tokyu along with a moment filled with tranquility.

In addition, we are offering numerous other summer promotions to help you comfortably overcome the heat, including limited-edition summer mojitos at the 4th-floor bar and special cookie tins at the Pastry Boutique.

[New] "Strawberry Milk Shaved Ice" ¥4,427

A new dish presented by ORIGAMI this summer. This "strawberry-filled" shaved ice luxuriously uses rich strawberry confiture and puree, along with fresh and dried strawberries. The melting strawberry pulp, vanilla ice cream, and espuma create a harmonious blend of textures, resulting in a華やかな (gorgeous) flavor. Adding the separately provided condensed milk and strawberry sauce further enhances the evolving harmony of sweetness and aroma.

"The Melon Frappe" ¥5,692

This visually stunning and refreshing dish, perfect for early summer, is crafted using half a whole domestic musk melon, prized for its rich aroma and juiciness, with its rind serving as the vessel. Generously topped with house-made vanilla ice cream and scooped melon flesh over pure ice. The rich ice cream further enhances the sweetness of the juicy melon. Enjoy the refreshing aftertaste until the very last spoonful, with the addition of melon syrup.

"Uji Kintoki" ¥2,530

A "Uji Kintoki" (matcha and red bean shaved ice), a classic summer cool treat, weaving together the deep aroma of matcha and the gentle sweetness of red beans. It features a two-layer structure with rich matcha sauce and red beans layered at the top and bottom, with house-made vanilla ice cream, shiratama (mochi balls), and condensed milk hidden in between. As the ice melts, multiple Japanese flavors harmonize, leaving a subtly bitter yet elegant matcha flavor and a clean aftertaste.

"Ogura Shiratama" ¥2,530

A traditional shaved ice that shines with its simple yet carefully crafted taste. Pure ice is layered over red beans, condensed milk, and house-made vanilla ice cream, then topped with more red beans, condensed milk, and shiratama. The clear texture of the ice, the gentle sweetness of the red beans, and the chewy texture of the shiratama harmonize to create a nostalgic dish.
