ANA InterContinental Tokyo: A Contemporary Expression of Japanese Luxury

Located in the heart of Tokyo, ANA InterContinental Tokyo represents a contemporary expression of Japanese luxury hospitality. Following an extensive 15‑month transformation completed in December 2024, the hotel presents 801 redesigned guest rooms alongside reimagined dining and social spaces, marking a new chapter in the property’s nearly 40‑year legacy.

Designed with today’s modern luxury traveller in mind, the renovation blends Japanese craftsmanship with contemporary elegance throughout the hotel. Guest rooms incorporate motifs inspired by the art of origami, reflecting the concept of “unfolding Tokyo”—a metaphor for the sense of discovery that accompanies travel in one of the world’s most dynamic cities. Subtle references to traditional aesthetics are paired with modern comforts to create spaces that prioritise both tranquillity and refinement.

The transformation also introduces two distinctive suite categories—Mizu Suites and Sora Suites—which present an elevated interpretation of Japanese aesthetics combined with contemporary comfort. Carefully considered materials and design details offer guests a sophisticated reflection of Japan’s cultural heritage.

Beyond accommodations, the hotel features a collection of social and dining spaces designed to welcome both international travellers and Tokyo locals. The expanded Club InterContinental Lounge spans the 35th and 36th floors, offering a tranquil retreat with sweeping views of Tokyo’s skyline. Inspired by the serenity of a Japanese garden, the newly introduced 36th floor incorporates elements of the traditional tea ceremony within a contemporary setting high above the city. Guests staying in Club InterContinental Rooms and Suites enjoy exclusive privileges including personalised service, bespoke breakfast, and all‑day refreshments.

The hotel’s revitalised dining venues further enrich its culinary landscape, showcasing global flavours alongside contemporary Japanese hospitality. Cascade Cafe offers a vibrant international buffet experience with interactive cooking stations, while Atrium Lounge remains a signature space where guests gather for the hotel’s popular seasonal Afternoon Tea. Within the Atrium Lounge, the Genever Lobby Bar provides an intimate setting for craft cocktails that blend tradition with innovation. MIXX Bar & Lounge, located on the 36th floor, offers a vibrant social setting with panoramic city views, blending contemporary energy with elevated dining and drinks.

Together, these enhancements reinforce ANA InterContinental Tokyo’s position as a leading luxury destination for refined stays, business gatherings, and social celebrations. Combining contemporary design, cultural authenticity, and refined hospitality, the hotel continues to evolve while remaining deeply connected to the spirit of Tokyo. Marking its 40th anniversary in June 2026, the hotel builds on this transformation as it looks ahead to its next chapter, continuing to redefine contemporary luxury in the heart of the capital.
