AMAN Tokyo, the brand’s first city property and also its first hotel in Japan, is set to open on December 22.
Located on the top six floors of the recently built Otemachi Tower, the 84-unit hotel overlooks the financial district of Otemachi.
The centrepiece of the hotel’s lobby, soaring nearly 30m high, is an architectural feature resembling the interior of a paper lantern which rises six floors through the centre of the building, diffusing sunlight during the day to illuminate the lobby while at night, the ambience evolves via a series of orchestrated lighting scenes.
Aman Tokyo will also have three F&B options for guests to choose from: The Café by Aman which sells Mediterranean-inspired fare featuring the hotel’s signature sake; The Lounge by Aman, offering drinks and snacks; and fine-dining The Restaurant by Aman, serving Asian- and Japanese-inspired dishes.
The hotel also houses a glass fronted walk-in wine cellar that has over 1,200 wines. A Cigar Lounge and a Resident’s Library that includes books on Japanese art and culture is also available.
Aman Tokyo’s rooms and suites all contain a deep soaking tub, which is a core part of the Japanese ritural of bathing. The 71m2 Deluxe Rooms are the largest entry-level rooms in the city, followed by the Premier Rooms and the Suites which start at 141m2.
Over two floors of space have also been used to house wellness facilities which includes a fitness centre, a yoga studio, a pilates studio, a swimming pool and traditional japanese hot baths.
Guests will also find on site an inner garden, an Aman Spa and a swimming pool.
Vladislav Doronin, majority shareholder at Aman, said: “Aman Tokyo is the first of a new generation of Aman properties in cities that appeal to discerning luxury consumers such as New York, London, Paris and Singapore, where we are already in active discussions.”
