The Ritz-Carlton, Tokyo

A Sky-Scraping Stunner

What it is

A 245-room-hideaway in Tokyo’s tallest building.

What it isn't

Overwhelming. Doting staff and comfortable interiors bring the experience down to earth.

What we think

It’s not often you’ll find yourself checking in in a lobby lofted 45-floors over the cityscape. But the Ritz-Carlton, Tokyo, is no ordinary bolthole. It has a truly jaw-dropping 360-degree view (yes, that’s Mt. Fuji resplendent in the distance), plus rooms as cosseting as any you’ll ever find (book the Modern Japanese Suite for an only-in-Tokyo look, complete with a futon, tatami mats and a shoji door). As with all Ritz-Carlton’s, service is exemplary—guests are pampered with 24-hour room service, twice-daily housekeeping and, that rapidly disappearing act, evening turndown service. Bliss.

You're here because

You’re traveling with kids, and the Ritz-Kids program is one of the best on earth. (Where else will they be able to bed down in an in-room safari tent complete with an LED-lit Home Planetarium for constellation-gazing?)

The Moment

Stepping into the spa on the 46th floor was like entering another world—a place where the frenetic pace of city life simply doesn’t exist. In its place: total paradise. After your organic green tea salt exfoliation, you feel as renewed as a butterfly leaving the chrysalis.
