Our family spent the last night of our Japan trip at 1 Hotel Tokyo, and it couldn't have been a better ending. The moment we opened the door, the Tokyo Tower filled the entire window. We all literally screamed with excitement, turned off the lights, and stood by the window together, taking in the breathtaking night view.
The hotel is brand new with excellent facilities. What impressed me most was how spacious the room was. Instead of squeezing guests into tiny rooms with expensive marble and designer furniture, they prioritized usable space. We had plenty of room to open all of our luggage. The design is tasteful, modern, and eco-conscious without ever feeling cheap.
The food was another highlight. Breakfast had a great variety, the restaurant is beautiful, and both the coffee bar and cocktail bar are wonderful places to relax. Every front desk staff member we interacted with spoke excellent English, making communication effortless.
During this trip we stayed at Four Seasons, St. Regis, Ochiairo, Ubuya, AC Hotel, and 1 Hotel. Among all of them, 1 Hotel offered the best value for money. For around $500–600 per night, we got an incredible Tokyo Tower view, a spacious room, an extremely comfortable bed, great amenities, and excellent dining.
Don't forget to check out their pool. It's like heaven.
