Gora Kadan Fuji

Shizuoka  •  Japan
Mount Fuji is fully visible only about 80 days a year, yet travellers who have seen it a hundred times still pause on the hundred-and-first. Gora Kadan Fuji, which opened on 20 July 2025, was built for that kind of traveller. The second property from the celebrated Hakone ryokan that began welcoming guests in 1948 on the former summer grounds of an imperial prince, this new outpost sits in Subashiri, Shizuoka, 800 metres up Fuji's western slopes, on a 50,000-square-metre site with nothing but forest between the hotel and the mountain. A Shinkansen from Tokyo reaches Mishima Station in about an hour; a 35-minute drive then winds through cedar forest, and Haneda Airport is roughly 90 minutes by car. Yokohama-based Ogitsu Architects Studio spent over a decade shaping the design around a single idea its founder calls "enriched tranquillity": long corridors extending west, cedar ceilings, concrete, shoji screens, a chapel-like orientation toward the mountain. Interiors by Aoyama Nomura Design pair tatami and hand-thrown ceramics with contemporary restraint.

Of the 42 suites and villas, the smallest spans 74 square metres, the largest 254, and every one faces Fuji, most with a terrace, garden or private onsen drawing water from 1,500 metres underground. The real drama unfolds on the dining floor, where five restaurants line up in a single row, each framing the mountain through floor-to-ceiling glass. Chef Yuki Nakata runs the kappo counter with a menu that shifts weekly: Matsuba crab dumplings, gingko nuts on pine needles, pickled persimmon. Teppanyaki Fuji Kanda is overseen by Hiroyuki Kanda, whose Tokyo restaurant has held three Michelin stars for 18 consecutive years, serving hybrid wagyu raised in Kagoshima. Sushi Takumi brings Edomae precision from Tokyo. Kadan Spa's 18-metre infinity pool can be reserved privately, Fuji at sunrise its most extravagant backdrop.

Intimate in scale, the resort features just 38 rooms and suites, cultivating a sense of privacy and calm rarely found in large mountain destinations.

Public spaces continue this tranquil mountain-retreat atmosphere, incorporating onsen baths, sauna facilities, a fitness center, and serene lounge areas, ideal for unwinding after skiing, hiking, or exploring the highlands at an unhurried pace.

Iki Retreat by Onko Chishin

Perched on the mystical coastline of Iki Island, a place historically revered as a sanctuary of the gods, Iki Retreat by Onko Chishin offers a profound architectural dialogue between human shelter and the untamed beauty of the Genkai Sea. The property is conceived not merely as a hotel, but as a womb-like sanctuary where the boundaries between the interior and the horizon dissolve. Upon entering, guests are enveloped by a 'cocooning' atmosphere, achieved through a masterful interplay of warm natural wood wainscoting, soft textures, and a minimalist aesthetic that prioritizes serenity. The architect has intentionally lowered the gaze by utilizing plank beds, inviting enveloping chairs, and low-slung Japanese dining tables. Combined with expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, this design choice creates a surreal sensation of hovering directly over the water, allowing the ocean to act as the room's living canvas. The experience of seclusion is absolute, with just 12 suites serving as private observatories for the drama of the tides. Each retreat features its own open-air bath fed by the island’s ancient 'Golden Onsen,' a mineral-rich hot spring that has bubbled up for centuries.

Rosewood Miyakojima

Rosewood Miyakojima gathers the beauty of Japan’s southernmost island landscape and its coral-edged coastline into a contemporary hideaway where time seems to move more slowly. As Rosewood’s first property in Japan, the resort opened in March 2025 on a quiet peninsula overlooking Oura Bay in northern Miyakojima, surrounded by sugarcane fields, white sand, and the crystalline waters known as Miyako Blue. From the setting alone, it feels less like a conventional Japanese seaside hotel and more like an island retreat for a discerning traveler. The resort comprises just 55 sea-facing villas, each with a private pool, courtyard, or generous outdoor living space, creating the sense of a private coastal residence. Design is led by Studio Piet Boon, with local architectural support from Mitsubishi Jisho Sekkei, and throughout the property Ryukyu limestone, natural textures, and restrained lines translate Piet Boon’s signature balance and warmth into an island aesthetic shaped by Ryukyuan culture and a distinctly Japanese sense of wabi-sabi.

The dining program is more layered than at many beach resorts, going far beyond the simple idea of meals with a view. NAGI centers on Italian cuisine with a clean, ingredient-driven approach, while MAAS draws more directly from the island, highlighting Okinawan seafood and Miyakojima’s famous snow salt. The standout is CHOMA, set in a standalone pavilion overlooking the vivid blue sea, where Japanese cuisine is reimagined through a contemporary lens with sushi, teppanyaki, seasonality, and local craftsmanship all in play. Nearby, Choma Bar builds its cocktails around the legends and landscapes of the Miyako archipelago, while poolside YUKUU offers a slower, more relaxed rhythm. What makes Rosewood Miyakojima so compelling is not merely Rosewood’s arrival in Japan, but the way it transforms Miyakojima’s raw beauty, the quiet depth of Ryukyuan culture, and the precision of international design into a destination resort with a clear identity and genuine staying power.

Conrad Nagoya

Nagoya  •  Japan
Nagoya rarely tops travel itineraries, but it has always had more going on than its reputation suggests: Toyota's headquarters, the ruins of a Tokugawa castle town, the lacquerwork and ceramics traditions of Owari Province. What it has lacked, until now, is an international luxury hotel commensurate with its scale. Conrad Nagoya opens in summer 2026 as the city's first, and Japan's third Conrad property, occupying the 31st through 41st floors of Landmark Nagoya Sakae — a 41-story mixed-use tower developed by Mitsubishi Estate in the Sakae commercial district. The hotel connects directly to Sakae Station on the Higashiyama and Meijo subway lines; Chubu Centrair International Airport is roughly 50 kilometers away. The 170 rooms, including 29 suites, start at approximately 50 square meters, with views of Nagoya Castle, the cityscape, and on clear days the distant outlines of Mount Ibuki and Mount Ontake. Design references the craft heritage of Aichi Prefecture, with ceramics, lacquerwork, and local artisanal detail throughout the interiors.

Six dining and drinking venues cover the full arc of the day: dedicated rooms for kaiseki, teppanyaki, and sushi represent the Japanese culinary range; an Italian restaurant and café provide more casual options; the rooftop bar frames Nagoya at night. An executive lounge serves Hilton Honors Diamond members with all-day refreshments and private workspace; a 180-person ballroom and meeting rooms accommodate business events. The indoor pool, spa, and gym complete the amenity picture — the spa draws from traditional Japanese wellness philosophy alongside contemporary treatment methods. For the city, Conrad Nagoya is a long-overdue arrival. For travelers, it offers a natural base for exploring central Japan properly: Inuyama Castle, Hida Takayama, the indigo-dyeing streets of Arimatsu, Atsuta Shrine — a region whose depth has always rewarded people willing to look.

Four Seasons Hotel Osaka

Osaka  •  Japan

Four Seasons Hotel Osaka brings together the waterside memory of Dojima, the elevated city views of central Umeda, and the restrained layers of contemporary Japanese aesthetics in a luxury address that feels both newly arrived and deeply attuned to its setting. Occupying the upper floors of One Dojima, the hotel is housed in a tower designed by NIKKEN SEKKEI LTD, whose sail-like silhouette subtly echoes Osaka’s long relationship with waterways, trade, and the identity of a “city of water.” As the brand’s first property in Osaka, it opens in a district where history and commerce continue to intersect, within easy reach of Umeda’s shopping, business, and transport hubs. The interiors, created by CURIOSITY, SIMPLICITY, and DESIGN STUDIO SPIN, weave together Japanese craftsmanship, light, texture, and a more contemporary international sensibility to create spaces that feel quiet yet visually charged. All guestrooms and suites look out across the Osaka skyline, but the hotel’s most distinctive feature is GENSUI, the modern ryokan floor on the 28th level. With 21 tatami guestrooms and suites, traditional bedding, private baths, and the exclusive SABO tea lounge, it offers a striking reinterpretation of the ryokan experience for the modern city traveler.


Dining is equally central to the hotel’s identity, with its upper-floor restaurants and bars turning the city itself into part of the experience. On the 37th floor, Jiang Nan Chun presents refined Cantonese cuisine in a more formal sky-high setting, framed by panoramic views and private dining rooms, while Sushi L’Abysse Osaka Yannick Alléno brings together the language of French haute cuisine and Edo-style sushi in a more theatrical omakase experience that extends the legacy of Paris’s L’Abysse into Osaka. Elsewhere, Bar Bota sets a more modern evening rhythm through its circular bar and sweeping skyline outlook, while Jardin and Farine add a lighter layer of French brasserie fare and bakery culture to the hotel’s culinary landscape. Paired with the high-floor pool, spa, and wellness facilities, the experience here is not simply about staying in central Osaka, but about encountering the city from a calmer, more polished, and distinctly more elevated perspective.

Cuvée J2 Hôtel Osaka by Onko Chishin

Osaka  •  Japan
In Osaka, a new philosophy of hospitality has been bottled. Cuvée J2 Hôtel is the world's first hotel officially curated by the great Champagne houses—a collaboration of eleven legendary producers in a singular vision. Under the minimalist direction of architect Shinichi Ogawa, the property adheres to a principle of absolute privacy and exclusivity: one floor, one suite. This is an adult's private hideaway, meticulously crafted.

Each of the eleven "Cuvées" is a deep immersion into the universe of a single producer, from Bollinger to Charles Heidsieck. The suite becomes a personal tasting room, complete with a semi-open-air bath, a private cellar of gourmet delights, a complimentary bottle, and a personal message from the Champagne house itself. This philosophy extends to AWA SUSHI, an intimate ten-seat counter dedicated to the sublime pairing of sushi and champagne, completing a journey that engages all five senses.

We boast a wonderful city view from our guest rooms which are average of 40㎡ in size on the 30th floor to the 38th floor. The Gym on the 30th floor will rejuvenate you for tomorrow.

The name of the hotel hearkens back to 1874. The first Osaka Station was born in this very location in the midst of Japan’s rush toward modernization. Rather than a traditional wooden structure, the Western-style station was built of red bricks, a symbol of a new age and a landmark for its time that attracted the populace and connected travelers to the city. Later, the station building was relocated, then repeatedly expanded and remodeled as Osaka itself developed and grew. Though there were plans over the years to add a full-fledged hotel, due to the impact of World War II and other factors, those plans were never realized. Bearing in mind this location’s historical significance, we have named our hotel THE OSAKA STATION HOTEL, exemplifying our desire to honor memories of the railway and the aspirations of those who came before us, and to continue our pursuit of a vision for what the hotel should be.

Opened in May 2025, the twenty-story property was designed by Jun Mitsui & Associates with interiors by Strickland, drawing on kisetsukan, seasonal awareness, and translating the castle's copper tiles and flowing moat into a palette of copper, wood, stone, and water. All 221 rooms start at fifty square meters, among Osaka's most generous, with natural wood, floor-to-ceiling glass, a tatami nook, Bamford bath products, and Bang & Olufsen speakers. The 233-square-meter Patina Suite crowns the highest guest floor with a kitchen, meditation room, steam sauna, and turntable.

Ground-floor P72 follows Japan's seventy-two micro-seasons with plant-forward cuisine beneath a 52-meter bark sculpture. Patina Wellness fills the fourth floor, 1,400 square meters facing the castle, a twenty-meter pool reflecting the keep, six treatment rooms with Oskia and Bamford products, and Japan's first hotel HealthTech suite: cryotherapy, hyperbaric oxygen, infrared sauna, and LED light therapy.

Nishimuraya Honkan

Toyooka  •  Japan
Willow trees trace arcs over the Otani River, stone bridges link wooden ryokan, and guests in yukata and geta clatter through a scene that has barely changed in 1,300 years. Nishimuraya Honkan sits at the very centre of Kinosaki Onsen, founded during the Ansei era of the Edo period and passed down through six generations over 165 years, the San'in region's foremost pure Japanese ryokan. Roughly 30 guest rooms, all traditional Japanese or Japanese-Western, open onto a central garden through wide terraces known as hiroen. Tatami grass, soft light through shoji screens, ancient pines, moss-covered stones and koi ponds compose an interior that feels like living inside a Japanese painting. The detached Hiratakan annex, designed by sukiya master Masaya Hirata, is a registered national tangible cultural property. Rooms with private open-air baths, Hatsune in ceramic or cypress, Botan and Kumoi suites for families — round out the collection. Minimum guest age is 10. JR Kinosaki Onsen Station is a 15-minute walk; complimentary transfers are provided.

Kaiseki is the soul of Nishimuraya. Dinner arrives privately in the guest room: matsuba snow crab steamed, grilled and served as sashimi in winter; Tajima beef kissed by charcoal flame — each course presented on heirloom lacquerware and ceramics that form a silent exhibition. Breakfast is served in the historic Senrei hall. Three on-site baths await: Yoshi-no-yu in fragrant cypress, Fuku-no-yu with an open-air section, and Shō-no-yu facing the garden. The quintessential Kinosaki ritual, sotoyu meguri, grants guests a free pass to all seven public bathhouses along the willow-shaded streets, each with its own architecture and legend. Sister property Nishimuraya Hotel Shogetsutei, 700 metres away, offers additional baths and spa. This is not a ryokan that chases trends; it lets trends come to it, in Kinosaki's rising steam, 165 years is only the beginning.

The Tokyo Station Hotel

Tokyo  •  Japan
Located within the iconic red-brick Marunouchi Station Building, The Tokyo Station Hotel seamlessly blends over a century of history with contemporary elegance, standing as one of Tokyo’s most distinguished landmarks. Since its opening in 1915, the hotel has shared its story with Tokyo Station itself, both symbols of Japan’s modernization, and is designated as an Important Cultural Property of Japan. Following an extensive restoration in 2012, the hotel retains its original European domes, red-brick façade, and arched windows, harmoniously integrated with modern comforts and refined interior design, allowing the grandeur of a bygone era to shine anew.

The hotel features 150 rooms and suites, including the Dome Side Rooms overlooking the station’s restored domes and the Palace Side Rooms facing the Imperial Palace gardens. Each space is adorned in soothing tones, warm wood textures, and high ceilings, creating a calm and graceful atmosphere.

Four Seasons Hotel Tokyo at Otemachi

Tokyo  •  Japan
The top six floors of the 39-storey Otemachi One Tower belong to Four Seasons Hotel Tokyo at Otemachi — a vertical retreat that rises above the capital's financial core with views that refuse to let you look away. On one side, the Imperial Palace Gardens spread out in dark green silence; on the other, the city runs to every horizon without interruption. Direct access to Otemachi Station keeps the world within reach, yet the elevation creates a remove that feels almost architectural in its precision. The hotel's 170 guest rooms and 20 suites were designed by Jean-Michel Gathy of DENNISTON in collaboration with DESIGN STUDIO SPIN, a pairing that produced spaces where Japanese craft and contemporary restraint coexist without negotiation. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame each room's defining view — pine canopies of the Palace grounds, or the grid of a city perpetually in motion — and morning light enters at an angle that turns pale walls briefly gold. Bathrooms are spa-proportioned; suites follow an open-plan logic that feels tailored for two, with sight lines drawn deliberately toward the skyline. In select rooms, a faint outline of Mount Fuji appears at dusk, requiring nothing more than patience and a clear evening. Voted the number one hotel in Japan by the 2025 Condé Nast Traveler Readers' Choice Awards, Four Seasons Otemachi has earned that position on the strength of its details.

The dining program is as considered as the architecture. At est, Chef Guillaume Bracaval applies classical French technique with the precision of a craftsman who has thought carefully about where his ingredients come from — 95% are sourced from local Japanese farmers, fishermen, and foragers, a commitment that earned the restaurant a Michelin star and makes every course feel grounded in the landscape. PIGNETO offers a different register entirely: open show kitchens, a sky-high outdoor terrace with Imperial Palace views, and the kind of family-style Italian abundance that encourages ordering one more dish. At VIRTÙ, Head Bartender Keith Motsi draws on a rare collection of vintage French spirits and aged cognacs, reinterpreted through modern Japanese technique into cocktails that are as precise as they are generous. The Spa on the 39th floor offers Japanese-influenced treatments alongside steam rooms, traditional ofuro baths, and a 20-metre heated indoor pool that looks directly toward the Palace — a view that makes stillness feel like the most productive thing you could be doing. For travelers who measure a city stay by the quality of what surrounds them, this is Tokyo at its most considered.

Mandarin Oriental, Tokyo

Tokyo  •  Japan
Mandarin Oriental, Tokyo brings together Nihonbashi’s historical role as the point of origin of Edo, the financial gravitas of the Mitsui district, and the sweeping drama of Tokyo seen from above, shaping them into a form of urban luxury that feels composed, polished, and deeply layered. Occupying the upper floors of Nihonbashi Mitsui Tower in Tokyo’s Nihonbashi Muromachi neighborhood, the hotel was the first Mandarin Oriental property to open in Japan, unfolding across floors 30 to 38. Its 179 guestrooms and suites all command expansive skyline views: to the east, guests look toward Tokyo Skytree, the Sumida River, and Tokyo Bay; to the west, on clear days, even Mount Fuji comes into view. The tower itself was designed by Cesar Pelli & Associates, with Nihon Sekkei overseeing architectural design and supervision, while the hotel interiors were created by LTW Designworks. Inspired by the Japanese reverence for nature, the design translates images of forest, flowing water, and shifting light into an interior language that feels restrained yet refined, further enriched by bespoke textiles from Reiko Sudo and the art and dining-space design of Ryu Kosaka / A.N.D., giving the hotel a distinctly Japanese spirit within an international luxury setting.

The name means soul in Sanskrit, and the hotel occupies the upper floors of Azabudai Hills, Tokyo's newest creative district, a 2023 mega-development in Minato, with Tokyo Tower framed directly through floor-to-ceiling windows. Architect Jean-Michel Gathy of Denniston designed all 122 rooms and suites, scaling from light-filled 55-square-metre Deluxe Rooms to the 284-square-metre Janu Suite with two private balconies. Every room has its own balcony. Interiors lean on warm timber, washi-textured walls, and low-saturation stone, stripped of ornament and generously empty. In the 105-square-metre Tower View Suite, living room, bedroom and bathroom occupy separate volumes, and the tower glows orange across the dressing-room mirror at dusk.

Eight dining and drinking destinations give the hotel its rhythm. Sumi turns charcoal grilling into a sumibiyaki omakase served across a single counter; the fourth-floor Janu Grill handles breakfast and flows into afternoon tea at Janu Lounge & Garden Terrace; Janu Mercato runs Italian dining from breakfast through late night; Hu Jing reimagines contemporary Chinese cooking; Iigura serves edomae sushi; and Janu Bar stretches the evening. The 4,000-square-metre wellness centre is one of Tokyo's largest hotel fitness spaces, with a 25-metre indoor lap pool, seven treatment rooms, two Spa Houses pairing Russian banya with Turkish hammam, aerial yoga, a golf simulator, and boxing masterclasses led by Japanese kickboxing world champion Rui Ebata.
