Muhammad Ali was our guest staying in our Imperial Suite Room at Keio Plaza Hotel Tokyo for a total of 12 nights when he visited Japan in 1976 to fight Antonio Inoki in a special fighting event. Totally befitting his status as one of the world’s top sports athletes and celebrities, Muhammad Ali was a gentleman throughout his stay with us. He also provided glimpses of his personal side when he played some of his favorite songs on our grand piano, went jogging in the early morning hours, and enjoyed a meal of chateaubriand steak for breakfast at one of our restaurants. We will introduce a special display created in memory of The Greatest, and a walk around the lobby will take you back to those priceless moments when the historic fight took place.
This exhibition has been held for three consecutive years to help celebrate the achievements of athletes from around the world, captured graphically in dramatic pictures taken by professional news photographers to convey the attractiveness of sports.
