“Tokyo's first 5-star ryokan fills a 17-floor skyscraper, with each floor acting as an independent guesthouse. Expect utter luxury, whether unwinding in soothing onsens or feasting on exemplary Japanese cuisine. A serene haven for design lovers. Step outside into the heart of Tokyo. Superb.”

Hoshinoya Tokyo

Shoes slipped off at the entrance. Sliding paper screens. Low futon beds. Hot spring onsen bathing. And tatami mat flooring (even in the lifts). Welcome to Hoshinoya Tokyo, the city’s first luxury five-star traditional ryokan inn, housed in an 18-storey skyscraper.
