With its high-rise setting and Japanese-inspired interiors, Mandarin Oriental offers a refined base for exploring Tokyo
Location: Set above Nihonbashi in the Nihonbashi Mitsui Tower, Mandarin Oriental occupies the upper floors of a landmark building. The hotel is well placed for exploring the historic district, with Nihonbashi’s shops and restaurants close by and easy city connections.
Rooms: The 157 rooms and 22 suites combine contemporary Japanese design with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Tokyo. Interiors use Japanese fabrics alongside local artwork, while higher-floor suites can look towards Mount Fuji on clear days.
Amenities: Dining is a major part of the stay, with restaurants spanning several cuisines. The 37th-floor spa has four treatment rooms, spa suites and heat and water facilities, while the fitness centre on the 38th floor looks out across the skyline.
Activities: The concierge can arrange cultural experiences in Nihonbashi, including tea ceremonies, traditional Japanese paper workshops and kintsugi. The neighbourhood itself is worth exploring on foot, particularly for its historic shops and long connection to Tokyo’s merchant culture.
Sustainability: Mandarin Oriental, Tokyo is GSTC-certified and has earned the Responsible Hospitality VERIFIED badge. The hotel uses LED lighting and automated air conditioning, while low-flow fixtures help reduce water use each day. Rooms use refillable bathroom amenities and glass water bottles instead of single-use plastic for guests.
