Aman Tokyo

It's best if you're used to spending $4-5k per night, but shouldn't be a splurge hotel.

There are very acceptable alternatives at half the price that deliver similar experiences. Unless you're already comfortable at the ultra-luxury price point, this feels like paying a premium for the name. The experience is excellent, but the value equation doesn't work if you're stretching financially to be there.

Someone here said 'Aman Tokyo changed me as a person' and they were absolutely right.

My husband and I are currently at Aman Tokyo and I just want to thank whoever wrote that because this is the best luxury experience we've ever had. The transformation is real — this place gets into your soul in a way that's hard to explain until you're actually here.

I was there last year and honestly can't think of anything I would've changed.

Obviously it was crazy expensive, but it delivered on every front. The room was exactly like the photos show—that lobby is genuinely amazing in person. Despite the hefty price tag, the experience justified every yen. Sometimes you get what you pay for, and this was one of those times.

We've stayed at eleven Amans and Tokyo is our absolute favorite property.

After experiencing properties across Asia and beyond, Aman Tokyo stands out as the crown jewel of the collection. The urban sanctuary they've created here exceeds even the resort properties in terms of creating that signature Aman sense of place. It's the one we keep returning to.

Every step of the process was wonderful with breathtaking views of Mt Fuji and the Imperial Palace.

The rooms blend modern luxury with traditional Japanese décor perfectly. If you're looking for a 5-star hotel in Tokyo, choose Aman without question. The views are absolutely stunning, and Ro helped make our stay wonderful and respectful throughout. This truly lives up to all its accolades and acclaim.

Asaki Yoshiuchi helped us with everything and ensured our room was perfectly arranged.

His attention to detail and warm hospitality truly made our stay special. The way he anticipated our needs and took care of every small detail made me want to stay at Aman Tokyo every time I visit. This level of personal service is exactly what you hope for at a property like this.

Niccolo at Arva goes beyond expected — tissues appeared when my wife sniffled, fresh coffee when mine got cold.

Having a wonderful week here with immaculate rooms and excellent service quality as expected. But Niccolo Brachelente at Arva restaurant sets the standard — he's super attentive and proactive, anticipating needs before we even ask. When my wife had a sniffle, tissues appeared. When my coffee got cold, a fresh cup arrived immediately. He's setting a great example for the entire team.

Don't forget a swimsuit so you can enjoy the stunning pool and start your morning with the onsen.

This is where you want to stay in Tokyo—incredible hotel with impeccable service and breathtaking views. Ten minutes in the steam room and a soak in the onsen feels refreshing after walking 30,000 steps exploring the city each day. The wellness facilities alone make this place special.

Service was some of the best in the world — their concierge got reservations where there was no availability.

Incredible experience with massive rooms, beautiful amenities and unbeatable location. Their concierge team is amazing, helping us secure reservations at places that supposedly had no availability. The combination of world-class service and that stunning hard product makes this the only place I'd stay in Tokyo now.

It's overhyped unless you're an Aman junkie trying to tick it off your list.

Personally, I think it's overhyped and certainly doesn't justify 3x the price of comparable hotels. You can get similar luxury at Bulgari Hotel Tokyo, Hoshinoya Tokyo, or Four Seasons for much less. Unless you absolutely must have that Aman brand validation, there are better values in Tokyo's luxury market.

I stay at the $100-a-night Sheraton Miyako and they recognize me better than Aman does.

Looking back after the rose-tinted glasses wore off, it wasn't worth the money. The hard product is incredibly amazing, but the service personalization is lacking even by Japanese standards. When I'm paying $1,000+ per night, I have expectations that honestly weren't met. The Peninsula Tokyo offers much better value and service recognition.

I paid $3,000 a night and still got questioned three times about my purpose in the lobby by the same person.

The hardware was absolutely stunning — those soaring room heights and imperial garden views are breathtaking in person, photos don't do justice. But the service fell completely short of Aman standards. We had to remind the restaurant staff of our room number multiple times during dinner, and they struggled to even find our reservation. When I requested a late checkout for my 7pm flight, they curtly demanded 20% of the room cost for just one extra hour.

Aman is bar none one of my favorite city hotels in the world and I always pay the price.

I've stayed three times and each experience has exceeded the previous one. The general manager personally greeted us at 2am when we arrived hungry, insisted Arva stay open past closing, and let us shower and change while they prepared our meal. The train is literally inside the same building complex, and that design is absolutely stunning. It's generous, caring service that justifies every penny.

I paid $5,000 a night for the Panorama Suite but the service seemed off with lots of new staff.

The 1,500 square feet with imperial garden and Tokyo Tower views were spectacular, and that traditional furo soaking tub was great despite the odd helicopter pad view. The hotel itself is quite popular with locals for afternoon tea. But the service felt inconsistent — seemed like high staff turnover with many new employees who weren't quite up to Aman standards yet.

The Aman has stunning but feel like a huge step back into business-hotel reality after Hoshinoya.

After the theatrical magic of Hoshinoya, walking into the Aman felt like returning to a very expensive but conventional hotel. Yes, the views are absurd — particularly at sunset — and it has proper restaurants and amenities. But it doesn't have that same transformative magic, and it's significantly more expensive for what you get.

We paid ¥380,000 more than Bulgari yet got much worse service and no evening refreshments.

We've always been avid five-star travelers and booked both the biggest Aman Suite and Bulgari Suite for comparison. The staff at Bulgari spoke better English and their butlers were more proactive and confident. Bulgari offers daily evening refreshments that Aman doesn't, plus 24-hour breakfast versus Aman's restricted hours. Honestly, we wouldn't recommend Aman Tokyo to anyone considering the much better options available for this price.

The concierge was the main letdown — they couldn't get reservations at high-end sushi spots I requested.

I stayed over a week on business and the hard product was spectacular — among the largest rooms in Tokyo with stunning skyline views. The breakfast team noticed I liked mangoes and started adding cut mango every morning without asking, which is classic Aman intuitive service. But the concierge mishandled reservation dates and ultimately I had to use a private concierge service and even DM chefs directly on Instagram. At a 6-star hotel, that's a serious miss.

This has become our favorite hotel in Japan — Niccolo at breakfast remembers every modification.

The room was gorgeous with clean minimalist decor and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Tokyo skyline and Imperial Gardens. The common areas were serene and luxurious, pool was gorgeous with a very well-equipped gym. Niccolo, the assistant restaurant manager, epitomized five-star service by remembering all our preferences from previous days. Even the pool staff surprised us with drinks and treats at our chaise lounge while we swam.

One of the best hotels you'll ever stay at — they even hand-wrote a good luck note for my marathon.

We visited Tokyo for the marathon and staff upgraded our room to a gorgeous suite with Tokyo skyline views from floor-to-ceiling windows. The service is unmatched — from small gifts left on pillows each night to placing bookmarks in novels left open. They even hand-wrote a note wishing me luck on the race with a gift bag of recovery items. The spa facilities and restaurants flow seamlessly with staff remembering breakfast orders.

We chose Aman Tokyo as our base for private sushi masterclasses and helicopter tours over the city.

Our travel consultant picked Aman Tokyo as the perfect minimalist, ultra-private retreat with skyline views and seamless service for our curated Tokyo experiences. The helicopter ride over the neon-lit skyline from this base was surreal, and the private sushi masterclass with a top chef felt authentic rather than touristy. For classic luxury lovers, Mandarin Oriental offers Michelin dining, but Aman delivered that signature sanctuary feeling.
