Tokyo American Club Nihonbashi is a match made in heaven

Arthur Mitchell doesn’t have much time to waste these days. When the longtime American Chamber of Commerce in Japan member and former governor does manage to get away from his law office near Tokyo Station, anything from lunch to exercise needs to happen according to his demanding schedule.

When Tokyo American Club Nihonbashi opened its doors last month, it was as close to a match made in heaven as Mitchell could find.

“I can walk to the Nihonbashi Club in less than 15 minutes,” Mitchell said. “Anything that saves me time is valuable to me.”

Opened on March 31 as the first satellite club in Tokyo American Club’s 93-year history, Tokyo American Club Nihonbashi packs a wide range of upscale facilities and amenities into a compact footprint—all situated squarely in the city’s busiest commercial district.

For Mitchell and other professionals with tight schedules to keep, the ability to pop into a world-class private membership club for an afternoon workout or an expertly prepared meal and drinks with clients is an unparalleled upgrade to his Tokyo work life.

“I went over there the first day it opened,” said Mitchell. “In the following week, I had three lunches there with clients.”

An inaugural Member who joined the Tokyo American Club community under a Nihonbashi Club-only membership, Mitchell is already making full use of the latest and most exclusive option to the Club’s membership lineup.

Situated on the sixth floor of the stunning Nihonbashi Muromachi Mitsui Tower, just steps away from Mitsukoshimae Station, the Nihonbashi Club offers the same incredible service, unbeatable amenities and international atmosphere Mitchell associates with the Tokyo American Club name—all in a location tailor-made for his professional life.

“The center of my activity is the office,” he said, “and the Club is so close.”

In the few short weeks since the Club’s unveiling, Mitchell has already put the brand-new fitness center through its paces and sampled the American Room’s signature burger with authentic British cheddar from Wykes Farm. He’s also eyeing the Club’s private dining room and adjacent conference space (available by advance reservation) for possible use.

As the Nihonbashi Club’s membership grows, only time will tell what’s in store for its international community of members. But if first impressions mean anything, Mitchell is sure there’s a bright future ahead.

“I think very highly of the staff, the atmosphere, and, of course, the location,” he said. “It’s just terrific.”
