The 15 Best Luxury Hotels in Tokyo

Tokyo has a wide range of luxury accommodation. The combination of world-renowned Japanese hospitality plus those sought-after minimalist Japanese aesthetics makes many of the city's hotels arguably some of the best in the world. Our hotel experts have narrowed the dizzying array of choice by bringing you a list of the best luxury hotels in Tokyo. Whether you are in search of a pampering spa, an onsen set high over the city, or outstanding gastronomy, there is something for everyone within our collection. So why not browse through our list to start planning your trip?

For a ryokan

Hoshinoya sits in a very contemporary setting (within a skyscraper) but its ethos is entirely traditional. Tokyo's first five-star ryokan - guests can spend their city break soaking in an onsen or sampling truly authentic Japanese cuisine. We think this is the perfect Japanese stay.

For a boutique

Hotel Azabu 10 is a chic boutique offering just ten luxurious rooms. Rooms are styled around indulgence whether it be a free-standing bath or floor to ceiling glass windows looking onto small botanical courtyards. The Western-Japanese fusion restaurant is exemplary and comes with an extensive wine list.

For the spa

Aman Tokyo has an especially good spa. The eight treatments rooms offer hot stone massages, reflexology and acupressure facials - to name just a few. There is also a Japanese bath and steam room. A luxury stay with contemporary Japanese design and an acclaimed Italian restaurant.

For a little grandeur

Shangri-La Hotel Tokyo is luxury defined. The design merges the best of European and Asian opulence. Complete with a spa, romantic restaurants, and elegant bars. A very indulgent choice.
The Tokyo Station Hotel offers a little bit of old school glamour amidst Tokyo's many contemporary stays. Set within Tokyo's train station, the 1915 style has a real East-meets-West charm. Expect chandeliers, antiques, rooms of grand proportions, and exemplary service.

For a contemporary stay

Park Hyatt is a sleek contemporary space. The large indoor pool and spa ensure real indulgence while the architecturally impressive restaurant displays enormous modern artwork and a glass wall lending unbeatable city views.
The Mandarin Oriental is five-star located high above the city. Interiors are minimalist and contemporary with a refined Asian touch. Dine at the modern sushi bar or bathe in the onsen, both with spectacular city views.
Chic, contemporary and boasting spectacular city views, the Andaz Tokyo's rooms' design is dominated by the enormous expanse of floor to ceiling windows. The bathrooms are luxurious and the style minimalistic throughout. A very cool stay.

For families

The Peninsula offers some of the largest rooms in Tokyo. Interiors are chic and minimalist and there are all the five-star trimmings such as a pool and spa. Children are very well looked after here with a special Pokemon experience amongst many other kids' activities.
The Imperial Hotel is an opulent stay and Tokyo's oldest hotel. Pick this hotel for the facilities from the glorious spa to the tea ceremonies. Better yet, while adults enjoy these indulgences, there is a full child care service to keep the kids entertained.

For a central location

Palace Hotel is a soaring tower located just minutes from the Imperial Palace. Smart modern rooms boast wonderful city views (best enjoyed from the bathtubs) and there are a wide selection of bars and restaurants. A perfect base for city exploring.
Four Seasons Marunouchi is a sophisticated five-star perfectly located in the Marunouchi district which is near luxury shops, the Tsukiji fish market, and Imperial Palace. Spend the day exploring before returning for dinner in the superb french restaurant.
The Capitol Hotel is another luxury stay near the Imperial Palace. Contemporary and sleek, this hotel boasts a renowned Suiren restaurant and a spoiling spa but the real treat is the views of Mount Fuji and Imperial Palace Garden.
Hotel Chinzanso is an elegant luxury property set in beautifully manicured Japanese gardens. Rooms have an air of European style, plus there's a spa and easy access to the Imperial Palace. This is a tranquil hideaway in the heart of the city.

For foodies

The Conrad Tokyo nears futuristic both inside and out. In-room baths, far reaching city views, and the spa are some of the highlights. However, the three fine-dining restaurants are particularly well regarded with Collage, which serves a modern Japanese take on French cuisine, really drawing the crowds.
