The Bvlgari Hotel Tokyo is set, in classic local style, atop a skyscraper...
“Lofty, triple-height ceilings reveal a dramatic canvas for it all across guest spaces, with craftsmanship highlighting textiles, stonework and carpentry throughout.”
“Emerald-veined Italian marble sits next to ishi-doro (stone lanterns), and 1960s Italian musica leggera (light music) is piped into black slate hallways.”
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Positioned in Yaesu directly opposite Tokyo Station, the tower sits minutes from Nihonbashi financial houses and the luxury boutiques of Ginza.
The rooms
Saffron accents and woven gold bedspreads warm the bedrooms, where automatic blinds rise upon entry to frame sweeping city panoramas.
The pool and vitality baths
Bring a swimsuit.
Emerald-green mosaic tiles line the heated 25-meter indoor lap pool, flanked by curtained wooden cabanas and mosaic vitality baths.
The spa
Soak slowly.
Treatment rooms look out over Tokyo Tower and the skyline, offering Augustinus Bader therapies amid Burma teak and stone.
The gym
Technogym equipment lines the floor-to-ceiling windows, and trainers lead bespoke sessions from Workshop Gymnasium.
The Bvlgari Bar
A handmade Bisazza glass mosaic rises behind the counter, and the rooftop terrace opens to views of Mount Fuji.
To access the hotel, you enter through a discreet corridor in the Tokyo Midtown Yaesu high-rise building, one of the city’s tallest.
At the table
Il Ristorante serves contemporary Italian dishes under vaulted ceilings, and Sushi Hōseki seats eight guests before a private rock garden.
How it began
Occupying the top six floors of Tokyo Midtown Yaesu, the property brings Italian stone craft and jewelry motifs to modern Japan.
“the property stands among Tokyo’s finest, delivering a standard of refined Japanese hospitality that’s increasingly difficult to match.”
