The Tea & Cocktail "The Lounge" at Hotel New Otani Makuhari is running the "Hotel New Otani" × "Rilakkuma" Super Sweets Buffet — Hidamari no Melon, Mango & Honey from May 7 (Thursday) to June 30 (Tuesday), 2026. This marks the first time the Rilakkuma collaboration sweets buffet has come to Chiba Prefecture.
Special Collaboration Drinks Come with a Collectible Acrylic Stirrer
Three exclusive collaboration drinks (¥1,500 each) are available, each served with a character-shaped acrylic stirrer as a gift.
Special Collaboration Drinks:
- Rilakkuma's Choco Banana Smoothie — Iced cocoa, chocolate sauce, milk, fresh banana, whipped cream
- Korilakkuma's Strawberry Milk Tea — Royal milk tea, homemade strawberry syrup, milk, whipped cream
- Kiiroitori's Yuzu Lemon Squash — Lemon squash, crushed yuzu, lime
The stirrers measure approximately 160mm and are made of acrylic. Available while supplies last.
7 Rilakkuma-Themed Sweets Created by the Hotel's Patissiers
Patisserie SATSUKI — a patisserie frequently featured in the media and backed by numerous notable figures — has crafted seven buffet-size Rilakkuma-themed sweets for the event.
The buffet format lets guests enjoy each item in any order they like. The lineup includes freshly prepared hotcakes made live, chilled mango mini parfaits, and sweet-savory mitarashi dango — a creative spread of 7 items in all. The lounge is decorated with Rilakkuma-themed ornaments throughout, adding to the character of the space.
Hotel Signature Sweets and Savory Menu
Alongside the seven Rilakkuma collaboration items, the buffet also features signature Patisserie SATSUKI creations, including the hotel's well-known Super Melon Shortcake.
The savory menu is equally full-featured, with hotel-made bread sandwiches baked fresh every morning, a salad bar, soup, pasta, curry, roast beef, and pizza baked on-site.
Visitor Gifts and Stay Plans
All guests aged 4 and above receive an original "Acrylic Marker Charm" novelty gift (one per person).
A premium stay plan that includes a confirmed seat reservation and collaboration drinks is also available for those who want to plan around this event.
