You already knew that Tokyo is one of the world's best cities for both eating and drinking, with everything from cheap eats to Michelin-starred restaurants satisfying your cravings and superb bars catering to all your cocktail needs. Even for those who prefer quantity over quality, you have not been forgotten either – after all, the city offers an endless variety of nomihodai (all-you-can-drink) deals.

Combining class with value while steering well clear of any lowly tactics (think inflated promises, unclearly marked 'last orders' times and watery tipples), the unlimited drink plans offered at many of the city's high-end hotels allow you to get buzzed in style without breaking the bank. Read on for our picks of Tokyo's top hotel nomihodai (plus one at a rooftop restaurant-bar), and get ready to take your liver for a ride. Just remember to drink responsibly.

Our favourite boozy deals

Park Hyatt: Twilight Time

When you feel like escaping the city buzz and taking your drinking experience up a notch, the Park Hyatt's bars are an excellent choice. The best-known high-end hotel in Tokyo by grace of Sofia Coppola, it's still cool enough to let guests imbibe unlimitedly – and without spending top yen – while enjoying splendid twilight vistas from the 41st floor. Beginning at 5pm, just when the sun is beginning its descent, you can enjoy free-flowing drinks and buffet-style canapés at The Peak Bar, found on the corner of the hotel's calm and spacious lobby floor. Live DJ tunes add to the atmosphere from 6pm onwards.

When? 5pm-8pm
How much? ¥4,800 (plus tax and service)

ANA InterContinental: Champagne Social

If you're feeling fancy and want to try multiple kinds of champagne, the ANA InterContinental’s Champagne Bar should be your destination. Their weekday plan, Champagne à Volonté, is every bubbly-lover's dream deal; it features three 'levels': Alice for two kinds of champagne, Béatrice for three, and Chloé for five. All plans let you choose from three sets of food, centred on foie gras, charcuterie or seafood respectively. To top things off, the cocktails offered at this maverick bar also feature champagne; you have to consume the fine stuff as soon as a bottle is opened, so leftovers of Taittinger, Louis Roederer and so forth are often used for mimosas and the like.

When? 5pm-10pm for two hours (Sun & hols 4pm-8pm)
How much? Reservations through the website: Alice ¥6,400, Béatrice ¥8,100, Chloé ¥9,900 (plus tax and service)

Don't miss her signature mojito or the Tokyo Tower, a Prince Park original cocktail.
