The winter illumination at Hotel New Otani Tokyo. More than 130,000 bulbs, about 10 km in total, light up the trees around the hotel and its roughly 400-year-old Japanese garden. Lights are on from 16:00 to 2:00 (varies by location). From mid-November, Christmas trees are added in The Main lobby and in front of the main entrance.

Kyochika's take

The 400-year-old Japanese garden turns into a garden of 130,000 lights at night.

Lights stay on until 2:00, so it is easy to stop by after dinner in Akasaka or Yotsuya.

The entrance tree (Nov 20-Dec 25) and the main tree (Nov 25-Dec 25) are added, so December is likely the most festive time.
