An oasis-like addition to the towering financial and media bases of Ōtemachi, on the doorstep of its myriad eateries and shopping opportunities, the HOSHINOYA Tokyo’s 17-storey ryokan offers traditional respite through a modern lens –  a continuation of the HOSHINOYA’s concept of presenting “an alternative Japan”. Hidden behind the intricate, up-lit komon-pattern facade, an ocean of tatami mats invite the feeling of homeliness;  the private rooms furnished simply and the evolution of the ochanoma lounge into hub-like space offering more than seasonal refreshments. Look for the rooftop hot-spring bath where, ensconced in the privacy of four walls, unobstructed views of the sky give sybarites further space to unwind.
