HOTEL SUMMARY
Where ancient Japanese tranquility meets contemporary urban sophistication, Aman Tokyo rises above the bustling Otemachi district as the capital's most serene luxury retreat. This groundbreaking property, the Aman group's first urban resort, transforms the concept of city hospitality by creating an oasis of peace within Tokyo's dynamic heart, just steps from the Imperial Palace gardens.
Opened in 2014 as Aman's pioneering foray into urban luxury, this extraordinary hotel occupies floors of the sleek Otemachi Tower, designed by renowned architect Kerry Hill. The property seamlessly blends traditional Japanese residential aesthetics with modern minimalism, using locally sourced materials including basalt stone, cypress wood, and handcrafted washi paper. Upon arrival, guests are welcomed by 186 Japanese trees planted at the entrance—a living forest that provides respite from Tokyo's concrete landscape. This thoughtful integration of nature exemplifies Aman's Sanskrit-rooted philosophy of peace, establishing the hotel as a cultural sanctuary in one of the world's most vibrant cities.
The hotel's 84 rooms and suites represent spacious luxury by Tokyo standards, each designed as a contemporary interpretation of traditional Japanese residential style. Accommodations feature cypress wood paneling, chestnut flooring, and sliding shoji screen doors that separate granite soaking tubs from sleeping areas. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame spectacular views of the Imperial Palace, Mount Fuji, or Tokyo Skytree, while remote-controlled blackout shades and state-of-the-art entertainment systems provide modern convenience. Traditional ceramics, local artwork, and paper lanterns create an authentic cultural atmosphere within these ultra-luxury suites, where heated stone flooring and deep soaking tubs invite contemplation.
Dining experiences celebrate Japan's culinary artistry through multiple venues, including a signature restaurant serving kaiseki-style cuisine that emphasizes seasonal ingredients and meticulous presentation. The sophisticated sushi bar and Aman Lounge—illuminated by washi paper lanterns with panoramic city views—offer curated selections of premium sake and Japanese whiskies. The adjacent Fumoir cigar lounge provides an intimate setting for evening relaxation. Tokyo's largest hotel spa spans the 33rd and 34th floors, featuring traditional onsens, a striking black basalt swimming pool, yoga studio, and treatments using Aman's signature all-natural skincare line rooted in ancient wellness traditions.
For discerning travelers seeking Tokyo's most peaceful luxury experience, Aman Tokyo delivers unparalleled urban sanctuary living. Book a suite with Imperial Palace views during cherry blossom season for the ultimate cultural immersion, where traditional Japanese omotenashi hospitality meets Aman's legendary service standards in the heart of Japan's magnificent capital.
