Hotel New Otani

The founder of the new Otani Hotel Group – Yoshitaro Otani The superb garden behind the hotel has his portrait. His story is quite inspiring, but I don't know what his character is. He was born into a poor peasant family and specializes in hard work. Later, I relied on my skills to play sumo to reach the first peak of my life. Game injured, retired. Relying on disability money and wife's help, he opened a hotel boy. Make money and work in steel. Everyone was lost due to the Great Kansai Earthquake. Restart, lean back and quickly add Tokyo reconstruction, make a lot of money. During the war, steel made out of Manchuria. After the war Tokyo held the Olympics, not enough hotels, took their own piece of beautiful land to build the current new Otani. Life has ups and downs, after the desperate situation will be a higher wave, exciting! If he doesn’t break a bone, it might just be an aging sumo wrestler. #I miss #travel abroad #family destination
